Looking good. Question for you, though. Please excuse my ignorance. I have seen a few growers running cover crops. This is a new concept to me and was trying research, but it became cumbersome. I figured I'd ask you since you are utilizing cover crops yourself, I was hoping you might be able to educate me or drop a link from a reputable source. Look forward to seeing what your solo cup ladies do! Good luck and happy growing!

@FoTwenny, I pop them about 2 days before I take the seedling out of its dome, this way the clover seeds sprout after the seedling has had time to shoot a good tap root, and the clover won’t over grow the seedling. Typically day 2-3 after the seed pops.

@PremiumNamaste, sounds like a lot of benefits from a small investment. You just get seeds on Amazon? I saw you added them after week 2. Is this when you'd recommend adding them to the top of the soil?

@FoTwenny, of course! So in the beginning of its life, the clover adds air and nitrogen to the soil, adding to the nutrient intake, as well as reducing risk for soil based pests. When the clover has flowered, you “till” it into the soil and it adds more air from rooting up and also a beneficial microbe blend when it begins to die and compost itself, giving off beneficial microbes during the bloom phase! White Dutch clover matures around day 50 from seeding. Hope this helps!

Looking healthy as hell in that little solo cup! You inspired me to plant some white Dutch Clover on the girls that just switched to 12/12. The vegging girls will get some about a week after they pop. Looking good my friend, happy growing!
