ApolloXX -Living Soils Organics

This bean came to me from a friend, she was cracked but still germinated. 👍 Really exited to be running my first fully organic grow! I am using https://livingsoilsfertiliser.com/ This mean watering in with dechlorinated tap water only 🤩 I will be adding in Recharge to the feeding regime next week. 💚

Added recharge to the feeding regime.

Topped this week

Check out her strong hand reaching up from the undergrowth.

Top dressed with with LIving Soils Organic worm castings. So far this has been the least stressful grow to date and that is a direct result of using dry organic amendments.

Transplanted up into 3gal (final pot) Soil is preamendmened grow and frass soil was allowed a 2 week “cook” time.

This girl is lst herself, the growth has started to pick up. I’m sure it has to do with the new shoes and worm castings.

Really excited to flip this girl into flower and see what these amendments can really do. Top dressed with 1tsp per gal Bloom.

Just watering every other day. That’s it.

Top dressed with 1tbsp per gal. Super healthy and vigorous there are more colas and the bud sites are stacking up better than I expected.

Topped dressed with Malted Barley, everything looks green and beautiful.

Final top dressing 2 tbs bloom 1 tbd bloom 2. Light defoliation. Just enjoying watching these girls grow.

Getting our swoll on. She’s getting bigger by the day, and oh so frosty this girl has the largest trichomes I’ve seen in the 5th week of flower. It’s the magical time where we watch the buds swell and put on the frost. Final top dress of malted barley applied.

Just watering every other day. And enjoying watching these girls grow. Still the trichomes on this girl.

Watering and enjoying watching these girls grow.

Just watering and enjoying watch these girls finish. The smell is pine and funk and the buds are swelling. The structure is so different than her clones.

Still I water. Really enjoying watching this girls finish, getting droopy. The smell is sweet like rotten fruit punch.

This was my first fully organic, dry amendments via top dress only, shout out Living Soils Fertiliser (https://livingsoilsfertiliser.com/) and being available. I was intimidated and sceptical, it looked like a lot of work. Amendments and teas and cooking soil. I was so wrong! This was the most laid back grow I have ever had, hands down no contest. It gave me more time to focus on the plant. What I did was mix my soil 2 weeks before planting, I planted directly into the soil and watered with dechlorinated tap, recharge once a week and top dress with 2tbs per gallon medium every 2 week (3 weeks following transplant) during the appropriate cycle:Grow, worm castings, Bloom, Boom1/2 (week 5 of flower) with the addition of a Malt barley ground fresh to order from Living Soils Fertiser. Great customer service quick reply and you can even call them on the phone, great source of knowledge about the ingredients and sources. What I learned: Feeding the soil allows the soil to feed the plant. In short. Your Media is a battery charged with nutrition, top dress fertilising refills the batterie. Microbes aid and facilitate the process. THE PLANT decides what she eats and how much. THE MICROBES are the workers bringing her the food in exchange for sugars. No need to flush as every water in a way is flushing, as Mother Nature intended. Best part, you can reamend your soil following harvest which I’ve done. Feeling pretty fucking smug about reducing my carbon footprint and having a better soil. 💚, PotCasso
