OG Kush has finally got her bloom on and she is moving at a quick pace, we believe she will finish just in time assuming the weather treats us right. Epsom salts has been added to the rain barrel once a week and she has had a small dusting of coffee grounds added to the top of her soil bed which seems to have helped her a lot. We do not have any worries with this girl, she is in the groove and we are enjoying the show, we hope to avoid bud rot as always but the season doesn’t seem very promising for that situation.
As for the cover crop, it was taking over so it has been cut back quite a bit. We find it to be a benefit for the most part, in one way it helps to keep the garden moist and sheltered but at the same time it is also absorbing what the plant needs.
Wow what a good choice. Those whatever "Kush" are always a good pick to me ;-) You are right, growing most of the time outside is a must. We mostly hear about indoors, but outdoors is crazy fun and huge ....
Enjoy the coming months
Great growing dude. Very nice job and a higher standard to aspire to.
I assume that you’re in Southern Ontario somewhere meaning below 49 N. It would be nice to be able to grow photos without forcing, but here near Edmonton (53N) plants have to be forced, or you grow autos. Divine seeds would be great to try but they’re not responding via email or whatsapp and I can’t find them in regular seed stores. Oh well.
@growing_patagonia, yes exactly! The two plants were first planted in 1 gallon pots, they have zippers on the bottom for easy removal. Infinity pots! We had already placed our ten gallons on top of the bed in preparation and when they were ready for the outdoors we planted them on top! They did very well, yes I’d say that is the size of the bed! 💚✌️
@Growing_With_Friends, some say do and some say don’t but we have found it to be a good assistant in regaining colour and helping the plants draw what they need from the soil. Mainly it is used to help a magnesium deficiency and or to fight against disease but it can also become the start of other issues if to much is used. When I relate to the Cannabis plant I consider what a good Epsom bath does for me, it is soothing and helps to remove toxins. A good ole cleanse and or a refresh but I wouldn’t do this everyday as it would dry up my skin. It is also supposed to help with bugs which makes sense but I’m not sure if it has or not, outdoor plants live with outdoor bugs! 💚✌️
