If you look back at the postings I've made you'll see Ive had shit couple years in growing. Between drought bugs and the popo I haven't had anything finish in too long. Been getting some really good stuff from the dark web.
But I think this year will be different.... I hope.
I started late this year but I think they are going to finish nicely.
I am my own worst critic....
So a lot of things have been happening in my life and finally I feel I'm in a better place to grow my meds. I'm a vet and suffer from a few things that I'm not going to get into, other than I feel much better with these meds.
Because of somethings out of my control I wasn't able to start anything until late.
My seeds popped about June 5th.
I had very little time or $$ to throw in this at first so I went with Miracle grow Garden soil for raised beds. ( I know I know this is my first and last time using Miracle gro) I also amended with some perlite.
Since the soil is micelle grow I'm using synthetic nutes.
GH basic gro, micro, bloom with cal magic and liquid Kool bloom.
I'm using pots that were purchased second hand and they range from 5 gal to 12 or 15 gal. I noticed them getting way too hot and warming the root ball too much so I covered them in white trash bags. This has made a huge difference.
So to start I popped the seeds in Jiffy pots and then moved them to solo cups. I let them go too long in the cups and they got root bound thankfully not too bad. While I was waiting to transplant I was looking for the perfect spot in my yard. I clocked a spot that received 8.5-9 hrs of direct sunlight a day. I live in the country but there are a few ppl around and well just to ease my mind about ppl randomly walking through woods as I did as a kid, I built a fence around my spot.
I have 5 LSD 1 Critical Cheese 1 Grandaddy purp and 1 707 headband.
Because of lack of $$ I wasn't able to give them any nutes until a couple weeks in so I know they could be a lot better than they are now had I been able to do so.
I have started amending with the Raw nutrient line. Humid Acid, Folic Acid, Amino Acids, Kelp, potash, and yucca extract. I can tell they have really made them jump over the last week and half. 1 of the LSD's was badly root bound and was at a stand still. Now its almost caught up to the others. I water them a couple gallons daily when its HOT and soak them every 3 days with nutes then foliar spray with Raw line once a week. Even thought they aren't as good as I'd like I still feel like I'll get a decent little harvest. They are strong and standing proud. But just a little behind where I'd like them to be.
Also worth mentioning I threw up a painters plastic thats 3.5 mm thick to provide some shade for a couple hours during the past few days that have spiked into the upper 90's. But I think I need to replace it with a thinner plastic.
I'll be staking them up soon. I know they still have some stretching to do.
