I hope you are correct.Thanks for that =)

So, I put the seeds on soil yesterday, today I went to look and it was like this:



I don’t think they will germinate hahahahahha, the fungal activity is so high and present (with the lights on) that I think the fungi will feed on the seeds before they germinate.
I will germinate them in the cups before putting them in the ground. I will also germinate some beans and peas.

So guys, I have little time for updates these weeks because of college and my low-paying job

So come on, briefly I put some clones in both beds and they seem to be evolving well and smoothly, with no sign of mealy bugs, I see one or two dead in my clones cups, but the plants are green and they’re getting better so I guess from now on i have more success.

The soil from both beds were heavily strong on fungi:

Breeding project:
In short, my breeding project is progressing. Already having all girls healthy and about 2 weeks into flowering. Today I will put the male to flower also with them.

They are several female Carmelitas, a guicy banger and a chocolate mint chip. The male is Carmelita too.

Summary:

The plants are evolving well, I feel the notill beds are drinking water faster and the girls seem to be a much better color than when I put them in the soil. I continue to water with the fungi to avoid more pest problems in the future and I have also been doing foliar prevention with serenade and Beauveria bassiana

My breeding project is also evolving, I’m starting to feel a slight smell of marijuana flower, the male is forming several bags and I’ve already started to see a slight production of resin in these plants. I believe that soon they will all be pollinated, some of the bags have already opened but I still haven’t given that pollen swing on the girls

I think my girls are pregnant :cowboy_hat_face: :sweat_smile: :laughing:
They’re covered in pollen. I hope to get a lot of seeds from them and hope to find some good plants in a future selection, I should also donate some in the future, we’ll see. Their smell is still kind of hard to describe yet, I think they will evolve more, they have a kind of forest smell with a strong cannabis smell, but you can only feel it up close, it’s not such an exhaling smell.
Here are photos of the plants I’m crossing:

Perhaps look for some dandelion (10% calcium) to add, along with banana peels ( potassium + phosphor). :+1:

Great job, it’s only going to get better and better!

Thank you very much for the interaction!

Could you explain a little more about ? Should I apply this to the plants I am crossing or notill beds?

I make my own earthworm humus, I think it should be ready next month, and I have WCa too

I cut up the banana peels and dandelion and top dress with it (just throw it on the notill beds.) But you can add it to your worm humus too. You can do both.

What is WCa?

I believe it is egg shells soaked in vinegar for days for a liquid solution of calcium. @space will be able to tell you! :hugs:

I’ve read a little about that, but haven’t researched it. I had eggshells in my hand a few days ago but was hesitating.

some suggest you toast till brownish, others say leave it in the sun for days, then it is ground to a powder… You’ll get it below. Have fun!

I add the cooked eggshell (fine ground) to my soil. :sunglasses: :+1:

vinegar to be more absorbing by

‘‘Water-soluble calcium is a source of available calcium that can be made from commonly used household items, eggshells and vinegar. When applied as a foliar spray, WCA provides available calcium to plants for normal cell processes, root growth, and fruiting (Hasenstein and
Evans 1988, Marschner 1995, Hodges 2010).’’

Easy and simple KNF Recipe. But yes, I should probably apply more often.

The vinegar will probablly keep insects and mold away… and vinegar will not bind with the trichromes and destroy them. Nice, if you need it.
But wouldn’t pour it on my soil, foliar spray only. But only if necessary, when new leaves look like shit. Is just a plaster on a wound, feed your soil calcium rich plants (dandelion leaves contain 10% calcium) sometimes and you’ll never have to worry about it.
