2020 Barneys Farm Outdoor

Well well well it's that time of year again and we got some goodies from Barneys Farm themselves! We have #3 orange sherbert and #3 purple punch. I tried something new this time with planting seeds, i dug a hole with a pencil and after putting the seeds in the dirt i than took some nice light fluffy earthworm casting and put over the seeds so they wouldn't have a hard time breaking soil and it seemed to have worked well. The two of em are heavy on the indica side and "finish" around the end of sept, so these two would seem to be perfect for my climate we shall just see! From what I've grown of barneys last year there times seem to be spot on so i'm pretty excited for these two. I do have Strawberry lemonade and Glookies but i'm going to run them indoors as the flowering time is later into oct and we'll crack them 4-5 weeks before these ladies go outside with a short veg time. But anyways been working hard around here trying to get thing going for the growing season, built 3x3 hemlock boxes for these 6 beautiful ladies, shovelled a patch out where i want to put the box, I've noticed in the evening with where the garage is it shades out in the evening so we may move where it is just trying to get an idea how big things are going to be so i can order my 4x4's for the fence. I also dug out all the pots that were used last year under 3 feet of snow! Id like to get these in the boxes as soon as possible to get some composting action going and for the soil biology to build back up, Im assuming my worms are all dead by now as the pots are just a solid block of ice.... This is gonna be a fun one if mother nature wants to cooperate! I will do my best with uploading but with this coronavirus going on and having satellite inter with 7.8 billion people on house arrest chewing up the internet it's pretty near impossible to use, i'm on Hr 1 1/2 now and only have 4 pics up 😂 fuck........ cover crops are still looking on point after a long cold winter, sometime in may this will be all chopped out and a layer of compost/soil will be placed over the cover crop and that should give me plenty of nitrogen for a couple weeks pending how big the crop get before mulch time. Anyways Still lots of work that has to be done, until next week!
