4x4 Organic Compost 980w #2

6/10/2020 Planted from cell pots on the 4th. They had only been in the cell pots for 7 days from root development. Gave them their first water after transplant today. Planted in 80% compost, 20% worm castings with a small amount of fine pumice mixed through. Green crack on the outside rows, Strawberries in the middle. Going to be a challenge keeping the canopy even as the GC has much larger node spacing. I had to do it though as I had a failure with GC cuttings.

12/10/2020 Starting to grow well and are drinking a lot more. They suffered a bit shock as they were transplanted with minimal root growth.

20/10/2020 Tied the GC down on the 15th and noticed slow growth all week. I should have transplanted a week later than I did. I was noticing a small amount of burning also, so today I dropped the Bio Vega from the feed. I sefoliated a little and rearranged the plants. I will likely turn over to flower at the end of the week.

26/10/2020 First official day of flower was 23rd. Growing real strong, reintroduced the Bio Vega on the 23rd and then left for 3 days while I was away. The dry spell did wonders and the plants are taking off.

02/11/2020 Looking great. Cleaning up the bottoms of the Strawberry plants tomorrow and adding a trellis to help controll the GC.

Photo taken 9/11/20 Trying a new product as I have become unhappy with the previous products I have been using. The GC's seem to be missing a major element slightly as I am losing colour from the bottom up. Soil PH is spot on and after reassessing my current nutrients I feel I might be missing P (even though this deficiency is rare). Other than that everything is looking good, and the flowers are stacking. I also have added a second tent which is identical to this one. I will be running this solely on the new feed. Pic is the second image. I will set up a new journal for that in Monday.

19/11/2020 I was a bit late to act on the GC. I removed the leaves that were dying and will continue to feed heavily. The cuts I have now are many generations old and I will start with fresh genetics next round. Strawberry plants are looking great, I will keep a mother of this. Second photo is of the new set up. All looking good in there. On 1/3 feed at the moment.

25/11/2020 It appears I have managed to catch the deficiency just in time. Starting to bulk up now. Mothers are all in large pots now and looking good. Other tent is on 1/3 feed and looking like I will transition on Monday.
