Nana-Glued Earthboxes

Most of the chop n drop cover crop has been diced and used as a mulch layer now. Consisting of large borage leaves, some of the thai basil that, most of the clover and alfalfa, and trim from the girls. Also planted some new alfalfa and clover around the base of the plants to keep a healthy root system and microbiome; also added some Nettles to the back mulch area that are just starting to come up now. Most of the Thai Basil, 3 Borage plants per Earthbox and the Yarrow are going to stay and get trimmed as needed. Really pleased with what I'm seeing under the microscope in the top inch of soil under the mulch; loads of springtails, worms, mites and pot worms in the mulch itself. Trying some new carbon based nutrient additives after doing some research on them. I waited until the reservoirs were dry for at least a full day, then watered in 1 gallon over the top soil. Some of this finds it way into the reservoirs so I waited until these dried out again before the next standard filling. Also added 1/4 cup of gypsum and mineralized phosphate around the base of the plants since there's a bit of purpling on the petioles and stalks. Flipping to flower next week most likely if they get to 18-20 inches.
