PavementPunk I premixed 5 tablespoons of happy frog into 5 gallons of dark rich compost soil loaded into the 5 gal vivosun aerobase fabric pot. Added 5 or so worms i found in the backyard it all got a nice little presoak rain before i planted the seed. Humidity dome for the first day or so in the shade outside. Yesterday was day one in the sun. 98 degree high and intense sun w no cloud coverage all day. I intermittently applied shade. I think she still might have gotten a touch more sun than needed. Overall tho still looking good on day 2 which is comparably cooler and cloudier than yesterday. Im very impressed with this newborn plants handling of such an intense day. I loved Zamnesias dosidos f1 genetics and it seems like this F1 will not disappoint either. Good stuff. grow strong yall

PavementPunk Another somewhat cloudy week but this strong girl has made the most of the sun she is getting making the transition into veg beautifully. One full strength dose of silica was applied 8/12 Zinnias too. I remain impressed with this strain and its heat tolerance and general toughness. Its definitely been getting a little chewed on by some bugs and doesn't seem bothered. Hopefully the silica helps with that. Ill probably do one more full strength dose this Tuesday 8/19. Enjoying this grow thus far, i may move her into the tent when its available soon. Praying we are safe from storms this season 🙏 happy growing fellow gardeners ✌️

PavementPunk Another full strength dose of silica yesterday. Noticed some mites and aphids today. Got some captain jacks neem oil to handle it. I know this is titled outdoor but i think im going to move this girl in the tent asap. Besides that she got some good rain this week. I snipped off the bottom most nodes and leaves early to focus her on the important branches. May snip one more runt branch. This thing is so tough its been very hot and its been dealing with it no problem. So impressive. I just ordered 3 more zamnesia F1 seeds. They kick ass and are easy to grow.
