Living Soil - Aficionado 2nd MJ‘25

Terp_Djiny The first week went well for the plant, but by the weekend, I had to add a support because it fell over. Otherwise, I kept the soil surface moist throughout the week and at the end of the week, I also sowed the organic helper seeds.

Terp_Djiny The little one is doing quite well, I left the support in place even though the plant is now holding itself up. By the end of the week, I topped it. I keep the soil moisture at about 60-70 mbar.

Terp_Djiny The plant has recovered quite well from the topping over the week. By the end of the week, I brewed a compost tea and watered it. I think in the next few days I can start stretching the first ropes to bring it down.

Terp_Djiny This week, tying down and some trimming were on the agenda for the plant twice. Watering was done only with water to keep the soil moisture at 70-80 mbar. The cover crop is also happily growing along.

Terp_Djiny I defoliated the plant in the middle of the week and tightened new ropes to keep the lower shoots down. On the main stems, I also removed the shoots that had grown up/down at every second node. After that, I cut the cover crop close to the ground and mixed in some additives into the top layer of soil. After mixing, I laid the cut cover crop back down as a mulch layer.

Terp_Djiny I watered the plant throughout the week and added a homemade FPE to the watering can for the weekend. I also tightened the ropes every now and then. Today, I put a bit of hemp mulch on the cut cover crop.

Terp_Djiny The plant was defoliated again in the middle of the week. I added the cut leaves and straw to the mulch layer. Throughout the week, I kept watering with plain water and by the weekend, I added a bit of FPE to the watering can. Now it's time to just watch the plant grow.

Terp_Djiny The plant is growing and starting to bloom beautifully. The stretch is in line with its companions, so I can raise the lamp evenly. With some FPE in the watering water over the weekend, I just watched the plants.

Terp_Djiny The week went very well. I keep the soil moisture in the range of 80-110mbar through regular watering. To better distribute the light to all the shoots, I cut out a few more sun sails. The cut leaves have been placed on top of the mulch layer. The first sugar leaves are already well covered with trichomes. I hope it continues like this. On the weekend, I added a bit of FPE to the watering. Otherwise, just plain water.

Terp_Djiny The plant got a compost tea to start the new week. I let it "brew" for 48 hours. After 24 hours of "brewing time," I added a couple of tablespoons of molasses to the compost tea. Throughout the week, it was just clear water again. The buds are forming and growing beautifully.

Terp_Djiny The plant is developing fabulously. The buds are growing diligently. Throughout the week, there was only water for watering, and as usual, a splash of FPE in the watering can for the weekend.

Terp_Djiny This week started with a compost tea. I let it "brew" for 48 hours. After 24 hours of "brewing time," I added two tablespoons of molasses to the compost tea. Throughout the week, there was only clear water again. The buds are growing and growing, and the trichomes are sprouting.

Terp_Djiny In the last week, I only watered the plant with water. The buds have grown nice and dense. The trichomes have matured over the week; I harvested at about 80/20 milky to amber trichomes.
