May 18: doing well in new home after the initial trauma of being transplanted into pH 9 soil by mistake. The pH swings show up on a certain age of leaf that likely corresponds to the roots that hit the alkaline soil. Should improve.
May 20: forecast for -1 C tonight but she’ll be alright. Not showing purple stems like Bubble OG but gave same P heavy foliar.
May 22: this Hash Bud did better with the frost two nights ago than the other two big manifolded plants.
@NorthernChemist, yeah, and I’ve stumbled upon this great way to do the staking. Starting poles are at close to 45 degrees rather than vertical and it makes all the difference. Bamboo cross pieces are easily friction fit and not really carrying a load. Seems stable with the peony ring still in place and seems to work.
@NorthernChemist, yeah I like it. Seems like the best way to handle photoperiods both indoors and out. This was a 16 cola attempt, and the later start photoperiods I will keep to 8 colas. This certainly maximizes cloning opportunities.
@MiyaguiOkPolilla; you’re welcome.. Yes, sodium, and going a step further it’s actually the ratio of sodium to Cal-mag (sodium adsorption ratio, SAR). My well water has super high SAR which is very bad for the soil.
@Northern_Ent, oh, muchas gracias por esa info. Nunca me he fijado realmente en los niveles de sodio, pero me imagino lo malo que puede llegar a serlo tanto como para nosotros 🍀🍀🍀
@JohnnyBarrel, yeah it’s looking great. Bubble OG is actually the biggest of the three big manifolds, followed by Candyland and then this one. This is a God Bud cross so it should be good. Cheers.
