subbed,

hey i sent you a PM check it out if you get some time

 

[PeeJay]

I popped by your journal, Butters. Nice plant! I grow in containers, and you are in the ground, so I don't have much to offer in the way of advice. I see Lester and Conradino are following your grow, and both are excellent growers.

Update:

I've been quite busy, so I haven't been on much. The plants are doing well. I did notice that they seemed a little off pace last Sunday. Since these plants have been in these containers for 12 weeks (they spent some time vegging in flower soil) I decided to clean them out with a bottom flush. I filled a big tub with RO water so that when I placed the containers in the tub the water came about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way up the side of the container. Then I let them sit in the bath for about 15 minutes. I lifted the plants out of the water and let them drain well. Then I scratched a little Yum-worm castings-soil mix into the top of the soil and fed them about 2 quarts each of half strength fishy ferts (2-3-1.) They have also been getting a weekly foliar with the kelp.

The flush brought them back in line. Flowers development is picking up steam as the days continue to get shorter. I figure they have 6-7 weeks to go. Should be a good harvest.

If it weren't for the size of these plants and the extended time they have been in the same soil, I doubt the flush would have been necessary, or the fishy ferts. I can't say for sure if the plants are benefiting from the foliar, but they sure don't seem to mind it.

Monsters, PeeJay - those are gonna be monsters.

Garden is looking top notch.

I did the first foliar ever (for me) with a alfalfa and kelp tea. They really seem to like it.
This round is gonna be really nice looking at harvest time I bet PeeJay!

Props Peejay. Garden looks great bud. Keep up the good work. I'd keep on with those foliars too, obviously they aren't hurting anything...lol.
