June 28th Raised beds anyone? Here's my veggie garden for the season. Got about 8 pepper plants, carrots, green beans, onions, cucumbers, and lettuce. Oh and an added surprise in the Bonnie cup from 1 of the Pepper plants, parsley! I mended the soil in it this yr. with a bunch of compost from the property, some pelletized lime, perlite, Epsom salt and recycled soil from a bunch of pots from previous planting. Can't forget about the Potatoes, goin' wild after 2 months.
Speaking of compost here's a few pictures of my main pile + various ones around the property. Sometimes I just rake it, and it 'ends up' just staying there for awhile
I started adding food scrap to the main 1 this yr. a different pile was used in the potting mix this yr but is working well I used a straight mix to start the Chronic clones and they have done well the first month in it.
June 30th Chronic clones #4,5,6 & 7 (2wks from Xplant to 1gal Plant Warriors) I topped 2 of em'
Serious Seeds says it does not respond well to topping, but I beg to differ
& heres a few shots of some of the ones behind these 4, When I took the cuts, Dre was on her way to flowering, so all of these were spitting out pistils in the dome and had to re veg, it's been kind of cool watching that, they look alien like when they are 'confused' about what to do.
June 30th (4 days after Xplant to 5gal) Did some topping, LST, training, etc. different techniques to different plants.
DD#1 Topped 4x
DD#2
DD#3 Topped 3x
DD#5 DD#6 JA #1
Speaking of tea here's some photos of how I make my teabags. made from the same thing I filter my water with, a bed skirt. Creeping Charlie is abundant on the property and high in nutritional value, so I just cut some up and steep it with my brews. The blue 1 is for the bat guano and the soluble seaweed.
July 5th Royal Queen Seeds Blue Cheese Auto #2 (14Wks from seed)
Just letting her go, it adds variety when staring at the garden the sativa ish qualities about her.
Speaking of Cheese here's a few pics of Auto #1 harvest, not much dried @ 21G, but boy does it smell and look good.
14 days drying at an average of around 60/60 over those 2 weeks.
until I could snap the buds clean off the stems.
Terp profile for anyone reading whos interested.
Please anyone feel free to comment, sometimes I feel like I'm talkin' to myself here lol. I wouldn't mind chatting it up with some of my fellow growers.
July 6th Window Photos.... 'My Wake Up' as I like to put it...
I utilize a homemade greenhouse for days when I know it's going to pour so that I can keep feedin' em' without overwatering.
The DDs are around 12wks from cut (84 Days)
The Chronic cuts 2 & 3 are also around the range of 12wks from cut (84 days)
The Johnny Appleseed is 9 1/2wks from cut (66 days)
