Hey fam been busy lately trying to get this notil bed going and taking care of outdoor while doing busy summer stuff.
Anywho, so far have 23 clones at day 24 flower and just put in another 10 couple days ago.
Kinda slacked, gotta get the aero cloner going again here and keep adding. Plan is to add clones every 2-3 wks and eventually chop same amount every 2-3wks.
Strains so far are - GMO, Ortega x snowlotus, skunk91, dosidos, GG4. Will be adding some Ice Cream Cake, Chem D, and Creme Brulee and Magnum Opus once i get the mothers big enough.
Close up is a gmo. Sorry for shitty hps pics.

Note- cover crop is lacking, shoukd have planted it a bit before. Scared to use dirty mulch kinda hahahha
Also, released predatory mites, lady bugs, and rove beetles. As well as hype-o for gnats. Gonna add nematodes too.
Cheers

That’s really cool. Should be a breeze to run once you’ve got it all dialed in too.

So in a bed like that indoors, there’s no run off when you water? Do you put a layer of gravel or something in the bottom?

Watered w blumats.
Set originally and can adjust sightly if too much or too little water. Always stays damp but not wet.
Because of lack of cover crop ive been watering too w water can once a week to keep damp.
Lots of perlite added.
I dont believe you want runoff in a notil as you woukd be washing your goodness out of the soil.

One minor issue ive noticed right away is that its difficult to reach the plants in the back but Ill manage.

Taking along the lines of SFG (square foot gardening) a concept of Mel Bartholomew the deep ness of a raised bed system should be based on a persons arm reach on all four side to the center of a bed I realized its to late now but if a bed on the short end is against the wall and brought out a bit say 1-2’ it would be easier for future bed tending excited for your future garden!

Awesome perpetual!! Lots of work cloning and harvesting every 2-3 weeks, but well worth it!!
May I ask which Chem D you will be running? BIG FAN!!! I ran Chem D for quite awhile, got mine from a forum breeder, was the cats ass!!

I got it off a guy on Insta.
Its the veriegated one, which i thought was a known trait of true chem d but ive been told otherwise by some people so im not sure.

Not sure about that. The chem 91 I was growing never had that.
It’s funny how you could get 5 people to pop the same genetics and get so many diff variations of the same plant. Even if the strain is “stable”
