Barneys Farm Pineapple Chunk update 1st March 2020
Six weeks of flowering completed
Another week down and still hardly any sunshine to speak off. Everyday has been either rainy or just completely clouded and humid.
Despite this the Pineapple chunk plant is still stacking nicely and the buds are already rock hard in the middle.
This is fantastic as far as potential yield goes but I will definately need to keep an eye on them for any signs of mold or budrot.
It would be bloody devastating to lose the buds to rot after all my efforts so far.
As far as feeds go I have basiccally fed the soil first and foremost by using some more worm castings , Azospirillum and
Mycorrhizae. I also added in one feed of liquid potash and Epsom salts. Ive needed to water this plant the most of all of my girls because it's
planted directly in the ground rather than in a container. It's also got the biggest buds which may be another reason for the extra needed feeds.
There isn't much else I can do other than hope for some fine weather.
Thanks for reading this weeks Update and feel free to leave a like . ๐
Cheers ๐
@Grey_Wolf, Outside grows can sometimes be a crapshoot. All those critters and organisms. Defoliation and airflow I feel is key to prevent mold formation. They look good. ๐ We can only do what we can do.๐ค๐ค Hope itโs a beast.
Love the Chunk! Very tasty and aromatic strain. Can't ever go wrong with Barney's Farm. They know what we like... stability in genetics. Nice grow bud. Keep her happy
Another good hauls for an excellent weed. Congratulations.
Have you grown purslane? Some guy told me itโs good for the soil. And Thai people do eat it as vegetable.
@Grey_Wolf, yeah, pig weeds, since it is everywhere, nobody sells it. I picked mine up from a beach.
I makes good ground cover. Helps removing salt from soil. It takes mineral fertilizer very well. And if you mulch that, pig weed muclh is a good organic fertilizer.
@Med_in_Tropic, I didn't even know what purslane was until I searched for it and guess what ... It grows everywhere here!! lol but we call it pigweed
