I'd like to start off by saying "HIGH" to all my weed connoisseurs, slackers, growers, friends, and just plain old potheads I've dearly missed since I've been gone!
Welcome to...
NEW CITY GROWER 5.0 The Paper Chase
This was an idea my helper came up with; growing cannabis in packaging paper with "Fox Farm" nutes.
Let's get started with some back dated pics...
First we took some packaging paper; you know the type that paper bags are made of, then we shredded it by ripping it.
There was more than that LOL... Then we put it all in a 3gal fabric smart pot, added a rockwool cube we had 2 Afghan Kush seeds starting in and covered it with an un-shredded portion of packaging paper.
As you'll see below the top paper just shreveled up after it dried the first time. We just watered with 5.8 PHed water until the "cylotodes" (or however you spell it) you know those two little round leafs our beloved plants start with that feed them for awhile, dried out. Since then it's been a 1/2 dose of "Fox Farm Grow Big" with a full dose of Cal/Mag PHed to 5.8
At the beginning we were having a problem with the paper drying out too fast but a little "Vermiculite" took care of that.
And They were off & running...
Well at least one of the two was. One is short while the other one is tall and stretchy now.
We topped the stretchy one to slow it down.
My helper has gotten to the point where she's growing all types of mess around the apt so it shouldn't be surprising that she's growing bell peppers right next to this pot and I believe one of those seeds fell in my weed!
Anyway, that's where we at today.
