Week two of a sea of green experiment in living soil. We're full of worms and ready to roll. I wasn't expecting all my clones to root and I have a hard time saying goodbye to any ladies, so I planted six clones (2 phenos) of Apple Glitter from Irvine Seeds. Vegged for two weeks and then flipped. These are the healthiest and most vigorous plants I've ever grown.
Also, I'm a terrible photographer! Any tips are welcome.
I've got two different apple glitter cuts in the same pot, and one is definitely stretching more than the other. I've cut back on watering because I was probably going overboard. The sea of green is not stacking flowers at the same rate as it's neighbor that I flipped at the same time. Next run I'll do things differently.
Buds are developing nicely, the living soil bed started to throw trichomes before it's neighbor that flipped at the same time, also an apple glitter but a different cut. I bent over one of the number threes to keep an even canopy and it seems to be dealing with that stress just fine!
Nothing much to say this week. It smells so good right now. Ag 1s are stacking harder than the Ag 3s. Top fed with some worm castings and insect frass.
Starting to smell pretty strongly of gas and fruit. Buds are getting huge and dense. Watered with stash blend once or twice, but otherwise straight water. I am pretty pleased with the living soil so far and will continue to use it going forward. I'm less pleased with the sea of green tech. I'll probably just stick with two trained plants in the 30 gal next run.
Looking so good this week! Smelling so good. This is a bed of clones from two phenos that I have already harvested and neither mother looked this frosty or smelled this strongly. I think growing multiple plants in a larger amount of soil with worms are the key. I know that's too many variables to be sure of anything, but whatevs. I'm just excited. I applied some insect frass early last week. Starting to show the first signs of senescence, which is dope.
I think it's harvest day! I could go a few more days to a week, I think, but the trichomes are about five percent amber which is where I like it so they're coming down! Plus I've already done it, so it's too late to second guess myself!
Great strain. Sweet to smoke and a beauty to grow. Neutral on resistance because one bed did not get effected by pests while a smaller pot next to it had to be cut early from fungus gnats.
I'm happy with this harvest! Nearly a pound from a 30 gallon pot with a two week veg time. There are definitely things I would do differently next time, but I am very happy with the quality. I did a ten day dry, probably could have gone a day or two more. I used a bowl trimmer for the first time and that was alright. Saved so much time but of course it wasn't perfect. I'm excited for my next run!
