This was a fun project that was a few years in the making and a year later to see if they would last a season for this upload to happen. Before any of this I would bike aorund town grabbing up all the old Ikea solid pine bed slats that I could find and storing them in the basement. I have a lot of wood down there, any size worked as long as I have enough of them. The hot days to find them were the first and last of the months because that's when people where moving in/out. I also kept an eye on the free section on local online classifieds as well. The entire purpose of this was to recycle as much off the streets as I could before buying anything to finalize the project. In the end I only bought sealer, screws and some takeaway/beers. All the wood was 100% free and salvaged off the streets of Toronto saving it from the dumpster bin. After collecting all the slats for about 2 years I was playing aorund with them on how I wanted to make this work. I had previously done a little project like this before but I messed it up and the boxes where crap. did not last longer then 2 seasons, they where thin and shallow as well could not grow much of anything in them. I Was talking to my friend who is renovating their house and we brainstormed some ideas on the boxes, I found some designs I liked online and said lets make something like this out of what I have here. We tossed out a few of the design features when looking at them as it would have been wasted wood and extra work not needed. If I had more wood them maybe it could have been an option but simple was the name of the game. They taught me what I needed to know like how the miter saw and sander worked, plus all the other tools I was using. They did help out with a table saw and creating the triangle support joints in the corners, They used some pine left overs they had while making a staircase indoors. I did not feel up to the task of using a table saw given all the relatives I know who have lost a finger to them. In the end we decided the design would be three boards high and take an alternating pattern on corners. layer one short, layer 2 long, layer 3 short. Went with a galvanized and painted deck screw so it can take the weathering. Ran into some problems like making everything level as some of the boards were warped and other ones had undesired aspects like knots and tacky sticker goo I could not remove. So I used them for the base that will not been seen so much. Clamped everything down and called it a day. Once it was all done and over with, I then brought them back home from my buddies work garage and started to seal them. I went with a boiled linseed oil as its a food safe option should the wood degrade into the soil I will plant in them. I will need to reapply it to the boxes year after year but the main coat is the most important one and I put it on 3 layers with a good dry in between coats. the inside of the boxes that where coated did not degrade at all as the sun did not hit them so it will not need a new coat just the outside. Overall the end result was very impressive for myself, I've never taken a woodworking class ever and It was a near perfect outcome for me. Heavy Duty Planter Boxes for all my gardening needs. I made a last min decision to add in a plastic liner to preserve the wood even longer and stapled that into the frame. it has held up quite well and may need replacing end of 2nd or 3rd year out in the sun. Used a thick moisture wrap plastic with UV protectors in its formula. Lets see what I can grow in them this year! m0use's haus of projects - garden box edition

The flower is developing splendidly, flowers are getting bigger and bigger.

-4/9/23 Start of Week --Week 3 -4/9/23 (Day 22) --Changes: lowered the light and move the pot about 6 inches closer to the middle of the light (light intensity not changed). --Diary Enter; harvested half of the other plant that is in the same space, allowing me to drop the height of the light. will be watching for problems because light intensity was not changed (about 60%). -4/12/23 (Day 25) --Observations: Branch node are forming at the spade leaves at the first level shade leaves, also the third set of shade leaves are forming. growing quicker now that the light was lowered, also looks darker than at the beginning of the week. --Diary Entry: started growing faster after lowering the light and looks like it has increased chlorophyll production. will be changing the light cycle at the beginning of next week to 18/6 light/night, it will get that light cycle for 3 weeks then change back to 12/12 because of the fast flower competition. Fast Buds information on this cultivar clams that the flowering cycle takes 7-8 weeks so that's what I'm accounting for, leaving 1-2 weeks for hang dry and the start of curing. -4/15/23 (Day 28) --Observations: branch nodes doing very good, growing at good rate. --Diary Entry: will be changing to 18/6 light/night cycle beginning tomorrow, will also be transplanting and starting training soon. -4/15/23 End of Week

Very slow this week until I realised the timer was switching on for 15 minutes an hour into darkness, this has put me a couple of weeks behind schedule, should of been flushing for harvest this week instead I’ve been flushing for a couple of days to rid of nutrient lock, after 3 days of water I added just the pk and they’ve bounced back and the buds getting chunkier they’ve also needed a lot of defoliation throughout the week, 2 of the ladies are more a glue pheno in size, structure and a smell of pine, the other is a real chunky blueberry, hopefully I’ll get to the end with no more problems

Week 9 All plants are growing vigorously in a healthy way. Side branches are stretching, structure is enlarging since topping. Approximately same size; the bigger are Flash Back #2 & Brake Pad Breath. Daylight 15h40 - 6h20/22h Found some aphids on the Royal Moby: I sprayed Black Soap on every plants and cleaned the infested plant leaf by leaf. I placed sticky traps in each pot: yellow, blue and black for the different type of insects Major parts of the time plants are in the veranda; clean, sunny and ventilated room. It’s easier to control pests and diseases, but the risk is the contamination between plants in this type of closed space. I sprayed Neem oil too. 2 watering: -roots stimulator + enzyme -grow nutrients + Bio Heaven Added more soil in pot (1.5L/plants) : Worm Humus + bat guano + diatomaceous earth (natural mineral insecticide) + vermiculite Sprayed Fish Mix.

This week was a bit of a struggle. Plant was moved to 5 gallon container and into a tent. It took me a few days to get the humidity under control but all is well now that I've got a little better ventilation. The only thing I'm very concerned with now is bringing the ph down to a 6.5 -7. I'm going to use distilled water instead of nutrient mix for the next week and likely will heavily dilute the nutrient mix before next feeding.

Al principio de la semana se subió la luz a 70 cm aproz de la planta, reduciendo la potencia al 50%. Se regó a cada una de manera foliar con Alg-a-mic de biobizz para regularizar la deficencia de nitrógeno. A mitad de semana se regó con 3 ml x litro de biobizz a c/u. Cada planta consume aproximadamente 1.6 lt. Al final de la semana se cambio el ciclo a 12/12 y los resultados como se puede ver en el video. Gracias a todos x sus posteos....

Se esta acercando el día de la cosecha, pero todavía sigue pidiendo agua y los cogollos siguen madurando.

Zoap is doing awesome, she grows at least a quarter inch a day if not more. I’m going to do some mainlining on her. She seems good def not going to finish her before the competition ends, but oh well I will still do her justice! Until next time growmies best of luck and bountiful harvests! ✌️ 07/24/23

I provided you with a close up video of each plant and one video where i go through tent and try to focus some nice buds individually.. Dont have anything important to share here but that i started flushing 5 days ago with a mild solution of 400 ppm - terpinator and mammoth. She has very nice hash smell, she will produce a very nice smoke and hash as i ordered those bubblebags.. All girls are coated with resin and so damn sticky, her branches started to fall down so i had to tie them to hold each other. Waiting for them trichomes to turn amber as i want her true indica experience.

The plants are doing amazing! Both are producing more and more trichomes, and the buds are noticeably thickening up.🌱 #1 (the tall one) continues to impress—it’s now giving off a strong tropical mango scent! The aroma is so sweet and fruity, it’s crazy. Meanwhile, #2, despite being so small, has developed a surprisingly large main bud! The smell is completely different, though—leaning more towards a hazy, complex scent that’s hard to describe.🤔 Super happy with the progress so far—let’s see what the next weeks bring!😊

Hello everyone week 3 of flower has passed for this Strawberry Gorilla auto 🍓 Spider Farmer SE7000 80% have a great day and wish you all happy growing 😎👨‍🌾🏻

Dutch put want big pot ... some cal mag add ... i use rain water 25ppm ... and go down to 700ppm ... this fruit joy is strong ..in precedent pot all root developer in the botto of pot .. only 1 liter of root but blant is strong

I am extremely satisfied with the biotabs fertilizer, something incredible. and no PH water adjustment 🖕🏼 one shows a slight lack of magnesium. I will not deal with it at this stage, but next time I will put the lights higher.🤘🏻 -and the buds are incredible for 4w blooms BIOTABS: …….. is still the best organic fertilizer I've tried. incredibly good and simple and I only applied it 2x🤘🏻 in 1w and 4w🌹

Casey's Rollex OG is doing well. She is developing some really frosty colas on her. I can't smell at the moment from a cold. I imagine that it is starting up as well. Everything is looking great at the moment.
