Week 25
Daylight 11h40 : 8h/19h40 … 😢
1st October: 32°C, sunny days; lot of record values of temperatures in the country. All garden are green, vegetables keep growing… no signs of Autumn. The harvest will be late….
In the last episode I was facing a Spider Mites attack; I reacted with a compulsive buying of products to eradicate those weed’s killer. Neem oil, liquid manure (fem, nettle, horsetail…), and one especially used on fruit and vegetables ( Solabiol: colza base). I used this one first: spraying plant early morning: 3 days later there is no more Spider mites in the area but some leaves and flowers are seriously burned.
The treatment seems aggressive at this stage of flowering cycle. Lot of pistils turned rusty but after one week the plant recovered: suffering but still flowering ✊
I’m thinking about a bad utilisation of the nutrients: may be too much; quantity and frequency., and mixing lot of products like a mad wizard 🧙♂️🏻💥.
May be a problem of air recycling in the greenhouse. Testing the earth ph could be a good thing to verify if some nutrients did change this and caused some problems.
For the final weeks I gave a last dose of nutrients…may be a too strong cocktail but I will start to flush soon.
Watering 1.5L each 3 days (hot temperatures + sun)
- BioBloom + TopMax + BioGrow + Diamond Sugar + BioHeaven
- Diamond Sugar + Cannazym + PK 13/14 + Calmag
- Diamond Sugar + Cannazym. + TerraFlores + Calmag
- Bud XL + Overdrive + Diamond sugar
Chaotic outdoor session this year; less problems compare to other years, but too busy to really be attentive to the plants. It’s almost 3 weeks before to think about harvesting and flowers are not so bad, smelly and sticky… story continue…
Blackberry ìMoonrocks is finishing slowly ; the successive bad treatments, parasite’s aggressions, heat etc…caused stress and damages but we will have a result in some weeks (2 or 3) if three is no problems of moisture or predators. Flowers are resinous, very smelly: complex and powerful aroma: seems a good product.
@Andy1964,
Hey, I’m coming back to my garden in 5 days, and will update the diary soon😎…I hope my plants are safe.
This Blackberry Moonrocks will have around 120 days of vegetative period: born at the beginning of April, it will start a short flowering cycle at the beginning of August.
Good luck to you 🤞🏼😋
