@OriginalDankmaster96, his Crippy & Pressure Skunk, Day 8 above-ground, below
fyi, these are the first crops prepared with rice hull husks as 33% of the substrate. Feedings now are 100ml, twice a day. Substrate gets dry quik. In the meantime, I’m nursing them lol EAT!
*** It’s soluble in water, so the Cleaning of Any mess is easy. (sorry, that was a little jumbled there for a bit. oops)
The worm castings tea had it added and it Did Not impact the reading and interpretation of the pH paper’s colour !
1.5oz <-> 5-gal pail and the pH test was flawless @6.4 ! I did not check E.C.
The Final product (humate k) is not completely developed yet; 3-4 days of agitation & settling are needed to finalize the contents. But this “tail-end sample” is an OK application as per the proF
FYI, here is the best description Yet of what we’ve (@Pigeonman, @MonasticDank and myself) gotten into and created, as per @defharo in Europe!
Many Thanks and I’ve only gotten Dirty so far, but I Love it (@THCeed gets his next week for more outside testing)
Reading about Humate-K @MissinBissin . My reading says it helps with water retention. I add lots of Perlite to help my drainage. Seems it might not be one for me?
Thanks for the input @crownpoodle, definitely a characteristic I’ve not considered.
On a very similar topic, I’ve slowly replaced perlite with natural Sand and Rice Hull Husks as of late.
Additional natural ingredients that lead to unimpeded drainage and one that actually adds Silica as it breaks down.
This is all an experiment @crownpoodle so you can bet your Booty that we’ll be monitoring these in-ground and bin-grows Moisture levels
Also *** There are a couple of strains where we have 2 plants; Durban Poison & Chem Fuego. One will be exposed, in Soil, to Humate K waterings.
And the Bin-grows, are up in Chicken-Shit village and will Not be exposed. (Maybe lol)
Unfortunate that the Main food sources are different ie: chicken shit vs soil amendments, but we will have 2 different strains with 2 different outcomes each
The composted chicken-shit pellets is also an experiment that’s proving to be exceptional… hard to argue with First-hand viewings of a raised bed Produce & Cannabis garden exploding
Cheers
My recycling bucket is going to have a BUnCH of Green Planet bottles next week
@OriginalDankmaster96 Hoping to put Them directly in Soil during week 3, as is. Sex on the Fly in-situ. Thats the plan, plant 3, one in a pot and we’ll see.
All plants had their Soil amended, nothing crazy, stuck to formula. Then I cleaned up the insides of each plant on og row. Sappers n Sugars; gone, great airflow, Kept all the Fans,
I don’t think they’ve ever been more clinical. Created as much Mulch as was possible
Raised Bed has already proven to be a huge improvement. Our soil mix had just enough of the right things. Loving the same green on all the plants. Thats something i’m finding unique.
Potted Durban Poison is joining the mosh-pit Melee too (last year we used a sliding piece of bamboo for LST on each side of Frankenstein, and it worked great. Vertical posts were at each corner. As the side and lower branches reached upwards. They were simply pulled outwards, and the horizontal bamboo was slide up / down until the branch gently pinned it to the vertical posts, & held it in place. (4 mains were super-cropped, that helps with the fluffy look)
You have to Love It when Friends check-in, and they’ve been running your Gear…
Buddy sent me this picture last nite @SativaKid, 5 or 6 Red-Headed Hippie plants were grown and a few went straight to making Hash and the rest are curing… I get to see this today !!
Day 5, week 1
Foliar Feed is on todays agenda for these ones. Yesterday saw a single 150ml, worm tea Lunch. We’ll See how that fits & where they are today
