My last grows had many issues. I had to take a break and understand what was going on. I bought a simple PH meter and measured my municipality water at around 8. Now I figured that since my only successful grow was in peat moss with the Royal Jack by Royal Queen Seeds, the peat must have equalized the PH in the soil with the PH of the water.
In the meantime I also read many of the old forums and found an interesting thread by 'Old Uncle Ben' (https://www.icmag.com/threads/osmocote-my-favorite-plant-food-easy-peasy-complete.18126434/)
He advised people to try growing with Osmocote. Why not give it a try with my very last DC Cure seed?
And thus I came up with the following mixture:
2.5L Pot
Peat Moss with extra perlite
7G Indoor Outdoor Osmocote (19-10-9 + trace elements and 2% magnesium)
Biochar Bokashi
5-10% worm castings
Dynomyco
I did not expect much from it, but the results gave me a healthy plant until now (germinated 11-02-2024 | time of writing 23-02-2024). And I only have to water it since it is a slow release that will last between 3-6 months.
Day 49: she is not getting some Biobizz Calmag and I gave her Biobizz Top Max at 1/4 to 1/2 of the rate for auto's.
Day 53: smelling very fruity and getting thick and frosty
Day 56: She is getting close to the finish line
Day 60: she is very frosty everywhere, the pistils are majority brown and trichomes are starting to turn amber. The chop is coming soon.
Day 61: I decided to chop her up and dry her. I will report back a couple of weeks from now.
@Doctors_Choice, She was easy to grow. I hope to try her once again in a bigger pot. I have given a preliminary smoke review so far after a bit of curing. She definitely has good potential :)
