So i finally put the soil in the ground today, gunna water it and let it bake till my plants are ready to be put in the ground. So i got a few things to work out before i put the plants in the ground.
1. The pond water im using is maybe 100-150 feet away, i was just gunna fill bigass trash cans up and throw em in the truck and drive em to the plot, but after doing that with a cooler, im looking for an alternative way lol it was a terrible process. Whats the best way of gettin water from that pond to my plants? its hot as shit where i am so theyll probly need to be water twice a day.
2. I also need to be prepared for if the pond dries up, which i doubt it will but who knows. If it does, how should i go about watering my plants? my house is a couple hundred feet from the plot. Im pretty sure i cant use water that comes out of the faucet, so what should i use? is there a way that i can use that water and prepare it for being used on my plants?
3. Im germinating the seeds today, when there ready, im putting them in rockwool and letting them sit for a day in the dark, then ill probly have an 18/6 light cycle for a while. When there ready to be moved, ill put them in a gallon bag and throw them in the shade outside. Then i was told i should put them in a 5 gallon bag when their ready to be moved, then in the ground, is the 5 gallon bag necessary? Im using some king of soil that i got from a hydro store and it doesnt have any nutrients and all that shit so ive got the right soil, but if i dont have enough is there a regular soil that i can buy at home depot or something thats fine? that store is like an hour from me and if i need more and if its not a big deal id rather get it at home depot or lowes or something like that. Theres also a calloways near by.
4. Ive got a bag of bat guano and ill probably use that as fertilizer. I dont really know anything about fertilizer, but how long will it take till i need to start using it? Some people say like a few weeks, but this guide here https://www.rollitup.org/organics/510995-organic-feeding-101-a.html says right away. So should i start using the bat guano mix as soon as i put it in the ground? And in the mix, it says 2 tbsp of bat shit in 4-5 liter of water, and then to use 1 part bat poo water with 3 parts water, does that mean after ive mixed it and let it sit for a week, add 3 parts water to the mix that has been sitting for a week? And also, it says use every 2 weeks, so do i use the whole mix in 1 sitting, then make up another batch and use that again in another 2 weeks? Should i use multiple teas or just 1?
5. How will i know when its started flowering? in the guide, it has vegetative and flowering teas, im guessing that means i shouldnt use the bat shit water after it starts flowering? Hopefully i wont run into any problems with these plants because i really have zero knowledge when it comes to how to keep these plants healthy besides what ive already read. Im hoping that my soil mix and the teas i make will be fine to keep them healthy and strong.
Man if i get these questions answered, life is gunna be groovy lol thanks a lot guys and sorry for the over abundance of questions. Its just a few things ive been wondering lately.
