Plant Forge trial run

Plant_Forge Day 30 (veg): Plant responded well to the tea and has had a good amount of fresh growth. The clover mix is doing well too. Did a light defoliation and switched the timer to 12/12. Day 1 (flower): installed the second layer of net on the Plant Forge and wove the plant to fill the net efficiently. Day 2 (flower): fed old girl an aerated water solution with solubilized amendments adjusted to 7.5 pH with a bacterial inoculant. Did some light defoliation and trimmed a few lower node sites off as they weren’t going to be anything but booty larf.

Plant_Forge Repotted a healthy and vigorous Cake Mints plant that I hunted from seed and cloned aeroponically. I topped once while it was in a 1 gallon container and repotted to a 5 gallon Plant Forge container 5 days ago. I transplanted into amended roots organic soil with some dry amendments. I fed a specialty tea blend upon transplant. I also planted a subterranean clover mix as a nitrogen fixing cover crop upon transplant. After all that I let the plant veg under a 432 watt t5 fixture and acclimate in a 4’x8’ for the next 3 days. On the fourth day after transplant I fed with lightly amended water aerated for 24 hours and adjusted to 7.0 pH with an acidic bacterial inoculant. 5 days after transplant into the Plant Forge container I setup two sections of vertical poles and my first layer of net. I easily adjusted the height of net with the sliding adjusters to accommodate different branch heights from my plant. I filled in the trellis-grid as efficiently as possible and let continue growing. Pole and net installation was a breeze as everything is modular and simple to connect. *Day 6 after transplant, which is actually day 27 since I repotted this from the cloner. So from here out I’ll use that number. Day 27 (veg): no need to water, just let the plant grow. The subterranean clover mix the s finally germinating and breaking the surface. I made an amendment tea this morning and will let it aerate for 24 hours before I feed tomorrow.
