I'll just start off by saying how excited I am to grow some Ethos. I make my own hash so I've had his gear in mind for a while now. Everything is off to a good start though! It gets cold at night so I bring them on the counter in kitchen. I've been enjoying coffee with them every morning
This week I grabbed the Clown Royal clone from the dispensary. Just so I had a for sure female honestly. I threw her right into a raised bed I had prepared for the others once they're sexed. The bed is blowing up with cover crop quite nicely. In the winter I added yards of chicken compost, steer manures, hummus, all on top of a thick layering of alfalfa grass straw hay. I also layed down osyster shell, IMO, BE-1, Fish Bone Meal, Kelp Meal, and organic alfalfa rabbit food pellets (at 11 cents a lb I couldn't resist). I then sowed Dutch White Clovers, radishes, Barley, Peas, Beans, Sunflowers, and Blue Potatoes as a cover crop/companion plants. So far this week I'm definitely pleased with how everything is doing
Having a rough week healthwise myself but I'm glad to see it's not affecting all of my girls. The Clone is growing with passion!! I used a weird set up I had on hand to sort or spread her branches out. Topped her at the main cola and at every auxiliary branch to make a crazy multi topped bush. Along with heavy compost teas and foliar I'd say she's doing the best 😂 . The seedlings I couldn't transplant as soon as I wanted but better late than never. They seem to be on they're way for the most part though. Have them all new shoes with a TLO layer of dry food on the bottom. I topped a good amount of them the ones I haven't I don't think I will be.
So far so good!! My girls are coming along quite well. I wish most of them were the same size as the giant Clown Royal but oh well. The Pinkleberry by Green Source Gardens is starting to show pistols!!! So I'm really happy about that, she's supposed to be a gorgeous budding flower designated for bongs and medibles. I've been pinching everyone's branches here and there building some nice strong stems that way. I think my potted plants have finally reached the nutrition PACKED level I made at the bottom of the pot. So we'll see how they take off soon 🍀 Cheers everyone
I sexed through the lot this week. Was able to determine the males through females, not as many as I hoped but that's always how it goes 😂. (I picked up a few clones to make up for it) shhhh. I culled most of the males, I kept one very interesting one and brought him inside for further inspection throughout his cycle. The ladies are on they're way though! Not as healthy as I'd hope but my health hasn't been great either so in turn they suffer a bit. I'm hopeful they'll bounce back! As for the Clown Royal she's already on track to be a nice little beast hedge so I'm excited for that! I thinned her stalks down and cut off all the undergrowth. Laid fresh Down To Earth amendments too 🍀
@CoastGrower, ha! Hopefully swinging through terps like Tarzan soon. Much appreciated I definitely will. I used to grow on the coast for the longest time. I miss living so close
