Inserted the pod into the soil, removed the netting, repacked dirt and left the dome a little longer before it went into the tent to catch up
with my others.
Moved into the tent with the others.
just a suggestion, you may want to feed her some cal mag the tips of leaves are getting lighter, she will be giving you issues soon. you can foliar spray some as well.
ty! always appreciate your tips! need all the help I can get.
lots of calcium and magnesium when they are little. you will know if you used too much if edges of leaves turn color. π
I was thinking it was from switching from distilled to phed tap water because it seems be becoming darker shade , but I'll foliar spray some cal mag
foliar fed cal mag, cover crops coming in nicely. may have put too much wheat
why cover crops if you didn't mind me asking?
Cover crops are essential for living soil because they naturally enhance soil health, biodiversity, and fertility. They feed the soil microbes and fungi. Also helps with nitrogen.
I thought cover crops were planted in fields after/towards the end of harvest and will enrich the soil upon their death for the next year and will also stop weed growth during the off season. indoors I feel like they would just compete with your main plant for nutrients and root space. and by the time they die and add nitrogen to your soil your plant will be in a stage where you want to limit nitrogen. I also don't know anything about living soil and am just thinking out loud really.
I'm another person that doesn't understand it, what's under the wheat may I ask, perlite by the looks of it, I understand the living soil outside but I don't really understand hydroponics, but if it works for you then that's all that matters. Cheers. π
light water, mist tops, recharge tomorrow
I ordered red wrigglers and European nightcrawlers; they arrived today.
I set up two 27-gallon totes and created a worm farm. It will sustain my worms and worm castings and allow me to use the compost tea/worm casting juice.
I am going to beef up some of the arms and amend them to my 5-gallon pots.
I want to look into getting a 3x3 grow container/ box.
Loving the living soil is so much fun and easier than using notes and all.
Organic is the way.
Looks good. Mine sprouted the same day but still looks like yours did 2 weeks ago.
ty so much man! this comment means a lot. finally feel like I'm beating the curve on this one. couldn't of done it without the help of this app and members.
what growing medium and nutrients are you using ?
Fox farm happy frog mixed with perlite, worm castings and nature's living soil. Considered a "Living Soil" grow. Give it a 1/4 tsp of Cal mag, and use a recharge product once a week. Living soil feeds the soil and microbes, not the plant. The plant, in turn,, gets the needed nutrients from the soil. The cover crops helped with depleted nitrogen.
thanks. I have all that available locally so I'll mix some up for my next grow. I apparently won the seed raffle so I'll try with those. Good luck finishing off those lovely ladies.
I added cal mag, recharge and watered
clipped a couple last bigger fan leaves
hey PR looks good, however I can see your ph is drifting up, she has enough cal mag, check your ec looking like nitrogen toxicity if not corrected, but these are early signs so not a big deal
ty for spotting that, I noticed some tip curl. so just continue to water with straight water. I bought this rabbit manure, sea 90, humeric acid, worm castings, mycorrhizal tea, I haven't used it yet. I shall hold off. I got some silica on the way.
the one plant I have in the smaller pot that's further along is sitting at 0.95 holy crap, first time testing ec 3.52 on just one of the other 4. man I can't think you enough for pointing this out to me and helping me with this grow.
I would hold a bit they look well fed. with silica your ph will drift up. so ph your water/nutrients a bit lower. I add it first and wait 1 hour before I add rest of nutrients.
happy to help. Always check ec ph runoff if you think something is wrong. it a good gauge to see where you are at.
you might want to chop clover maybe getting too much nitrogen at top roots high nitrogen in flower will cause slower growth. they take it up if needed or not and use a lot of their energy to process it
added nematodes and changed vpd to 1.0
are nematodes used to prevent or control pest?
Control and prevention. I had a fungus gnats problem, and these eat the larvae and eggs. Then, the sticky trap and my zaplight kill the adults. I did it 3 days ago, and literally almost down to zero fungus gnats.
thatβs awesome!
Lookin really awesome! I'm jealous. ππ»
I know u know what your doing but I may add take that magic marker ink away from that baby!!!
it's bad even if it's dry?
