For the next couple weeks of veg it will be pretty much the same routine. Filtered tap water in the soil to keep it moist and foliar sprays alternating between nutrients/teas and IPM. Growth this week was wasn't much but already seeing a bunch of roots filing out the bottom of the pot so it seems most of its energy was in root growth. Also seem to be slightly nutrient deficient. Will keep an eye on this.
Also working on getting the raised bed ready. Cover crop is down and filling in. Re-amendments have finally arrived and will be breaking down the cover crop and topping up on amendments and worm castings in the next week or so.
8/2 - Time to water again. Watered the soil with filtered tap water and also applied a foliar feed of Fish Hydrolysate along with some Aloe Vera. Lightly watered in some of the foliar feed into the top few inches of the soil for a little extra Nitrogen availability. Keeping the cover crop cut back as to not block the light.
8/5 - First application of IPM solution consisting of aloe vera, natural soaps and neem oil. Soil is still moist so will not be watering today.
8/6 - Gave it a good watering of just plain filtered tap water. Added some additional water to the bottom tray to ensure the water evenly saturates the soil.
