Here we grow!
These are clones of Mandarin Cookies, rooted in peat plugs, under low light T5 Sunblaster 24w, inside a dome, keeping humidity levels high.
Clones got transplanted into my organic recycled soil in solo cups and under the dome.
Under 300w LED QB dimmed at 50%
Watering with tap water. My live soil is packed with nutrient's and minerals so there’s no need to add nutes for now.
Clones got transplanted into 1gal Rapid Stack pots, this will facilitate the next transplant into the live soil grow bed with no stress. Quick and easy transplanting with no root shock or damage to the plant.
Plants still drinking rain water, top dressed with Bokashi Pro-Gro, the soil is recycled and organic :)

What’s up growmies! I have been gathering a few ingredients and preparing the indoor grow space to begin my No-Till grow experience. But what is No-till? No-till farming (also known as zero tillage or direct drilling) is an agricultural technique for growing crops or pasture without disturbing the soil through tillage.
Organic growing practices are becoming increasingly popular in the cannabis industry. This method supports the idea of minimally disturbing the soil by growing your crops without tillage (the mechanical agitation of soil that comes from stirring and turning).
Some growers argue the no-till method can increase plants’ water absorption, as well as foster the perfect organic material in which to grow robust, healthy plants. It also helps the plants become more resilient, some farmers say, because the plants are forced to use nature to grow rather than rely on supplemental practices and chemical ingredients.
A cover crop is a crop of a specific plant that is grown primarily for the benefit of the soil rather than the crop yield. Cover crops are commonly used to suppress weeds, manage soil erosion, help build and improve soil fertility and quality, control diseases and pests and promote biodiversity.
Clover is a nitrogen fixer, meaning it sequesters nitrogen into the soil for your cannabis plants to use later. Clover can be grown with cannabis plants as a companion crop, or it can be grown during the off-season (spring or late winter). Its roots are shallow, but they still work to improve the soil’s quality and prevent topsoil compaction.
Hairy vetch is one of the more productive nitrogen fixers available as a cover crop. It needs to be planted by early fall to take hold, but will then work to bring nitrogen into the soil until late spring. Hairy vetch is strong, resilient, and produces a quality root system that keeps your soil happy and healthy over the winter months
Beans are a nitrogen-fixing legume that will help improve the quality of your soil. Planted in the fall, beans require soil that is rich in phosphorus, calcium, and sulfur to thrive and develop over the winter months. Once spring rolls around, you should be able to harvest the beans, mulch the plants, and spread them over your garden beds.
Basil makes a great companion plant because it attracts butterflies to your garden and repels many harmful insects. It is said that basil repels aphids, asparagus beetles, mosquitoes, tomato hornworms and white flies. ... Basil is also reputed to slow the growth of milkweed bugs.
Alfalfa is an ideal companion plant for cannabis as it fixes nitrogen and accumulates iron, magnesium, potassium and phosphorous. The deep roots help break up the soil, increasing water penetration and retention and slowing evaporation.

Now that the cover crop is nice and lush it’s time to transplant the clone into this live soil grow bed!
Lights running at 65%
Rapid Stack pots how it works:
When plants outgrow their container, the bottom of the pot is easily and cleanly removed exposing the roots.
Roots will naturally grow down and out
to fill the new space. No acclimation
period as with replanting.

Happy growing !
Nothing like a stress free transplant, where the plant don’t need time to recover!!
Bokashi Pro-Gro, my home made KNF input Fish Amino Acids (FAA) and rain water that’s all this plant is getting. Organic grow is cost efficient and you’re producing flowers that won’t bring any chemical sh!t into your body.
