Muddy soil
GBaalrstarted grow question 4y ago
Hey everyone. My soil ... It just isn't drying out . How can I help it? The plant is basically stunned into its third week and not 5 cm even. Soil is all muddy after 5 cm . Can I mix perlite? It's in direct sunlight for like 15 hours a day.

Yes, perlite or vermiculite are good additions. Even when using a prepared potting soil I will add so 1/4 of the mix is perlite for good drainage and aeration. Outside though you can't control the rain so a mound or the bucket idea might be a good option. I've done the bucket with no bottom for many different types of plants and it can work well.

Just let it dry out, elevate off the ground and maybe top dress with perlite. Water by weight. If it’s light, water—- heavy, no water. Good luck! We all over water at some point or another. ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

Hello. I would like to suggest making a mound by mixing in to the soil some,- perlite or vermiculite or peat moss or straw or sand. You can also cut the bottom off a 5 gallon bucket and fill with mixed soil and let the roots grow down at their own pace. Chuck.

I did an LST last time, but I'm not sure I did it right. Can you please tell me, given that the lateral branches are already very active, but the trunshould I do an LST in a 4-5 days? And maybe some tips. Last time I anchored the plant from the bottom so that the roots wouldn't come out of the ground from below and the stem wouldn't bend so much, and then pulled the stem over the top, is this correct?

Eternity Grow Cup 2025 Harvest Celebration: Has science finally caught up to homegrowers' noses/taste buds? Can we put the terpene wheel to rest?Flavorants are non-terpene (non isoprene based) molecules which contribute to smell or taste. This includes esters amongst other alcohols, canna-sulfur compounds, and other hydrocarbon molecules including at times lipids.
This supposedly solves the skunk question too. Thoughts?

I wanted to ask if you think this plant has mold or if it's just a major deficiency due to a blockage. I have an indoor plant next door with some plants growing with dark spots, it's in my previous question. Sorry for giving more information, I don't know what would help.
