Welcome back I am updating this diary two days earlier than the usual 7 days between updates.
Because the Plant has been suffering from root rot , The high temps within the nutrient res and grow tent were not
helping, so I have transplanted her into a Pot filled with perlite and vermiculite and a few clay balls on the bottom.
She has also been moved out to the greenhouse to hang out with my Chilli plants until the risk of Frost is over.
The day lengths outdoors are still short enough to keep her in flower so that shouldn't be an issue.
Time will tell whether this plants comes to anything but I just couldn't bring myself to chop her down incase she can
be saved?? The Basil is Doing well after the massive trimback last week she too is outside now and I'll put some pics up next week . ๐
@ROM101, yes I use that one too but as good as it is I just can't bring myself to use it indoors with the hydro
because as you said it does stink like a dead fishes asshole ๐ bit like fresh dynamic lifter on a hot day Nothing Like it ๐๐
@DILLIGAF, they do a power feed as well it comes in a red bottle it's some super potent shit and smells like a dead fishes arsehole but it works amazing on vegies๐๐
@ROM101, thanks mate it tested my patience thats for sure
I think if I wasnt doing a diary on it I would have chopped it awhile back but should end up with something out of it
Hahahaha I saw the cover picture and thought that it looked like basil :P
I've got so much room in my tent (only 1 light right now) and am considering filling it with herbs/veggies.
I didn't even realise this was another one of your diaries! Hahaha happy growing again!
@DILLIGAF, that's quite the difference. I guess that's why the guys I was reading about used marigold, it handles from 6.0-7.5. It probably likes the nutrients more too being a flowering plant.
@Cheezy, I wouldn't plant the basil in with the weed simply because the basil likes a ph of 6.7 - 7.2 and
your weed likes it down around 6.2 -6.5 plus the basil only has fairly low nutrient needs
@DILLIGAF, that's good to know! Our house plants in the living room have attracted so many aphid looking things, thinking about letting loose a bag of ladybugs!
With the basil do you have to plant it in the same container? I've read companion planting marigold in this manner also increases resin production!
I love basil in a fresh eggplant parmesan or even Alfredo .I've only cooked once with weed oil olive in a past was blasted didn't like how strong I had made it lol learned a hard lesson . Anyways the girl looks very healthy in its home there..
