Updates/Observations:
- Water, Recharge, and I decided to try out some Mammoth Microbes as well! Excited to see what they can do here in flower.
- Flower progression is excellent for the end of week 3.
- Actually loving the scrog net this run. This really helped me keep the canopy even and it worked better than I thought it would.
- My clones are starting to get healthy again! Took a while but I learned a lot about cloning. Next time will be better.
- I was gifted some elite genetics pollen by a friend so I pollinated a branch on each plant! Excited to see what she looks like!
Bonus: Garden in full bloom! I use earth worm castings and Recharge on all my outdoor plants and greenhouse as well.
Thanks for stopping by!

I love both podcasts, I’ve heard Jeff shout out to you! Good luck on the grow. You’re transplanting them into a kiddie pool?? I gotta see this....
Give your mom a hug! ;)
@Scribble,
Good to see another person that listens! Thanks for the support!
Yep it’s not quite set in stone but that is the idea right now!
Stay tuned for next weeks’s updates!

It’s gonna be spectacular. All plants will respond to each other, their gonna make food for all where the strongest ones are gonna help the weakest ones.
@CaliGrown,
You are killing me man! Thank you! Wish you were here to try some of this hash! I’m starting to get the hang of things. Just need to crop this next puppy and fresh freeze it.

It sounds intuitive, and it concurs with nature, and I know you know your stuff. But I learned leaving clipped leaves on the dirt makes a home for the wrong kind of bugs. I have seen more bug activity when I allow leaves to collect. Please explain the benefit, and/or your experience with bugs when you mulch. Thanks
@growdoctordc,
You are definitely correct in that it offers a good food source for the micro-arthropods and their population will increase with an increase in food supply/home. I practice insect pest management (IPM) at all times regardless of if I see pests so I spray and use neem and karanja teas regularly throughout the grow cycle.
Returning all parts of the plant (and by extension nutrients) that are not used for production is sort of the backbone of no-till ideology. Without that, too much is removed from the system and imbalances arise. Everything is about balance from what I have found so far. Nothing in excess reduces the ability of pathogens or pests to infiltrate the environment. Sort of a 'no room left at the table' type of methodology.
All that being said, this is my bed's maiden voyage so all I know is what I read. I am all book smart and little street smarts. Now that summer has come, I would like to look into experimenting with beneficial insects as well because I think at that point it is really starting to emulate nature.
Thanks for stopping by!
