Goji OG seedrun

[catapult]

First off, thanks to @The_Lazy_Hippie for starting this group run and donating beans. I’m thrilled to be a part of the fun.

I will post relevant updates to the group goji thread here Bodhi Seeds - Goji OG Crowd Source F2 Preservation (closed)

I will also keep a more detailed account here.

I will plant these goji’s in a custom made soil blend. I started this soil three or four rounds ago, each successive round has been easier (less foliar amending needed).

Soil:

• Promix hp and bx (approx 50 ga)
• compost made from kitchen and leaf scrap
• ewc (approx 30lbs)
• crab and oyster shell blend
• kelp meal
• oat groats
• gypsum
• lime
• bio-fish blend (down to earth)
• about a 1/2lb of dry cannabis trim

I use bio-live microbes from roots organics at transplant / a few times per round.

I amend mainly w a water soluble calcium that I made w crab and oyster shell and apple cider vinegar. 3/4 t / gallon H2O w a 1.5 t epsom salt

I make a banana peal tea for K needs and add diatomaceous earth and fresh ewc at transplants. I use terp tea blends from roots organics as needed.

This round may get some cherry wood shavings mixed in for structure

Bi-weekly Neem treatments in veg, for IPM, combined w diatomaceous earth dustings, and H2O2 sprays as needed.

40”x40” just got a bleach down.

Day 0: 10/23/21

11 goji og’s into a shot glass of tap water w a dash of h2o2

This is gonna be a beauty

[catapult]

Not at all my friend, a hearty welcome to all. Make yourself comfy, and thanks to all for showing support!

Nice. Is the pvc tubing at bottom to stop tent walls from sucking in ? Good idea i may have to borrow that one.

[catapult]

Yes it is, keeps the bellows out. 3/4” pvc bends nicely around.

It also doubles as a scrog net attachment when I decide to go that route.

[sprinklememaynee]

looks exciting! Will certainly stick around to watch this.

Also, the pvc around the tent is brilliant.

[bassman5420]

I dig the PVC as well. I am using some 3d printed tent spreaders I designed in a few tents at the moment.

[cannabliss]

Hey

I like your soil nutrition…
Good luck on the Preservation Run…

I’ll stop my from time to time and check in…

Do you know if these seeds will be part of a future Fall/Spring Box Co-op ?

Ps. You can also take Bannana peels and cook them till Black n crispy. Then use coffee grinder to chop it up… Can add to your soil as slow release of Potassium… looks like this when done…

[catapult]

Ok, so your saying to cook them dry and make a soil amendment right? I see the benefit to having it dry. Thanks bud, I’m always looking for more ways to amend my soil w recyclables❤️

So far I have usually just chopped fresh banana peels and allowed to brew in H2O on my counter for a day or so. Store it in the fridge for a week.

[CADMAN]

Yes …
Take a bunch of Bannana peels and cut them up place in over at 300°f.

When cooking is finished, Black n crispy, most importantly DRY, very little moisture. Like chips.

Chop them up with a cocoffee grinder, ends up looking and kinda smelling like coffee grinder.

Now it’s shelf stable for at least 6 months…

Use 1 Teaspoon Gallon of soil, mix in soil or top dress.

Ps. This is the first time I’ve tryed this myself.

@CADMAN

Do you know if these seeds will be part of a future Fall/Spring Box Co-op ?

Yes, I believe 8 packs were sent out to do a combined preservation seed run / pheno hunt with. I will be sending the beans I make back to @The_Lazy_Hippie is my current understanding. All will be collected and i assume head to Sebring from there w the intent to be included in the Spring box. Maybe the lazy hippie will chime in if I’m off about any of that.

Glad to have to you along:)

And thanks for sharing your banana peel process, I love it. Def wanna make some of that

[invisible]

Awesome i’ll be sitting in the corner watching this one.

Sendin the vibes out to you!

[SonsOfAvery]

I’ve been doing this myself too, on a smaller scale, with a pestle and mortar. Think I might just give in and buy a grinder lol.

[SonsOfAvery]

@catapult loving the setup you have here!
I’ll be pulling up a chair for this one.

[ChronicMcBudz]

I’m definitely around for this one! Good luck catapult!
