How To Make and Use Organic Super Soil Seedsman Seeds Peyote Wifi Harvest Well here we are at the conclusion to many months of planning and preparation plus another 23 weeks of Growing. I Did a lot of reading and researching super soils and how they are made before I decided to actually make some . Then I thought to myself I should document the whole process from start to finish in diary form. This way any other growers who are interested can have a basic idea of where to start. and the likely conditions they may face. All of this began way back in August of 2019 when I first mixed the super soil mix (which can be found by looking at week one) aproximately Three months after that I started this grow and 23 weeks later Here we are at the end. Along the way I described the methods I was using to keep the soil fully active and productive at all times. Plus also some of my pre planning tips for flowering time. For example in week four.... I innoculated with the Mycorrhizal kit as instructed on the packaging next week I'll give the soil some help by feeding some seaweed solution mixed with mollasses and worm castings. This will provide a boost for both the plant via the roots and also benefit the millions of tiny microbes that live within the soil. Simply mixing and using the super soil as is will still work fine however by keeping the soil in perfect health as well as the Plant itself will pay dividends come harvest time. Week Six.... It can pay to plan ahead now for when the plant gets bigger and will need support. With this in mind I am going to use a premade wire Tomato type cage that is 1.5m high. This will hopefully provide enough support for the plants frame when it goes into Flower Next year. Planning ahead can sometimes help prevent potential issues from effecting your grow. Some things to think about and plan ahead for are as I mentioned Plant stability and support when it gets bigger. Week nine..... Planning ahead still I decided to dig a big hole aprox 1.5 meters by 80cm and to a depth of about 4 foot . Took a few hours of digging and shovelling but the end result with the plant lowered down into it makes it worth my effort and Back pain that will follow 😏 By doing this I have created a much cooler Root zone by having the pot well below surface level But Ive also knocked 4 feet off the overall plants profile which will aid me in my other concerns being Security. Week thirteen.... Diamotaceous Earth acts as a bug deterrent and can't hurt the plant in any way. I also mix some into the worm tea that I feed straight to the soil as Diatomaceous Earth is a fantastic source of Silica which we all know is extremely beneficial to your Plants Health. As Far as my super soil is concerned , so far I have not needed to feed the plants any fertilisers as the soil is providing everything the plant needs. All ive been adding is biodynamic food for the soil itself to keep everything under the surface happy and well nourished. Once flowering begins next month I will need to add an organic Booster to the soil that will replace any depleted resources. ***** But not everything went smoothly in fact I did the most damage to the plant in Week 17 I decided to be stupid and spray all my girls with potassium bicarbonate thinking it would "mold proof" my plants WRONG all did was burn the absolute shit out of the leaves. From then on it was a constant struggle to get this girl to produce anything because along with the foliar burning I also had to contend with next to no sunshine for many days at a time plus the constant leaf dropping no doubt reduced my potential yield. ****** Not everything was Doom and gloom either in fact by Week twenty one.... The Quality however is definately showing itself, with every single bud covered in visible frosty looking trichomes. The smell is really really Funky with undertones of spices. So even tho I'll probably only get around half of what I was hoping for ,the bud that I do get will be straight up fire. 👌 In the Final week before I chopped .... The Buds although very delicate and light, look very Frosty and Delectable. As for the super soil it is absolutely chock full of nutritional value so I will use it to Grow a fine crop of Broad beans this coming Winter. The growing of Legumes in the soil will actually benefit the soils health in many ways including making the nitrogen within the soil more readily available. **** On the 18th of March 2020 I chopped her down and hung the plant upside down in the greenhouse overnight. Next day I removed all the buds and stripped them off the branches. The buds then went into a hanging drying rack until adequately Dried for the trimming. After the first trim the buds went into paper bags for more drying time (aprox 3-5 days depending on temp rh weather etc) They then got a bit more of a trim and went into the Jars for Curing. I have had quite a few bongs of this already and I must say it is Really good hey!! So in Conclusion I hope that this Diary may help somebody who may be interested in growing organically with soil outdoors or indoors as well as provide an insight into how the use of all natural ingrediants can produce Good buds. Whilst this particular plant didn't get Big buds the Quality was outstanding and you only need to check out some of the other plants I have growing in the same soil mix as to the validity of of its Fertility. Now we come to the End of this Grow I'd like to thank a few growers who offered advice and/or support along the way @ROM101 @Med_in_Tropic @F4m0u5 @Shooey @MagicMan @Spinnnn Thanks guys I appreciate it Also thankyou you for reading this Diary and please leave a like at the end if you liked it Cheers Grey_Wolf Post harvest notes ; its now the 1st of May and the Broad beans and Peas that I planted in the super soil are doing very nicely this will not only provide me and my family quality organic food for our table but also the growing of legumes helps fix nitrogen to the soil and keeps it living and healthy for the next time I need it for canna 👍💪 Best way to be folks self sustainable and recycling your soil mixes will help reduce our footprint on the planet and save us money too 👍 So what are you waiting for Grab some basic organic ingrediants and make yourself some Organic super soil 👍👌 ##### Final update for this diary 31st May 2020 It's been just over 2 months since I harvested this Peyote Wifi plant and the buds have been curing for that time . Today I chose a bud to test and I am blown away by the perplexity of the high and taste profile , Bloody amazing 👍####### Thats it folks All over now after 3 months of making the soil then another 24 weeks of growing the plant and then another 2 months of curing to get to here 31st May 2020 It was a great fun grow and I hope I have inspired some of you to try making your own batch of Organic super soil 👍

Week 4, May 2 to 8/20**********Days 22 to 28 from germination********* Fighting pH with numbers of 7.1 still coming out after putting in 4.5 for days and never given over 6.1 from the start?? Its time to rule out the damn pots as the issue because there is simply nothing else left......coco with perlite flushed from the start.....feed never over 6.1?????? How is run off staying so high even after several waterings of 4.5pH. They are only three weeks when this issue became apparent. I had cut slits in the bottom of the pots to aid in further drainage???? I transplanted the Fast Buds girls into 3 gal plastic pots. They are fighting the pH issues more than the other girls and will I pick on the weaker ones.......unfortunately its these ones. Plus since GSC is a longer running strain In this grow I figured these girls may have the most time to make up from any shock. GSC went well and she came out of the fabric pot well and into the new one. They were both exactly 10” across so I cut the whole fabric pot in half with razor knife while holding together. First girl fell right down in and went okay!!!! Cool👍👍👍 GSC2 on the other hand had more of an F U attitude about it all😡 Followed the same process but she didn’t’ come right apart nicely like the first one. She fought one side of the pot and in hind sight I should have cut a plus symbol or star pattern in the bottom of the pot rather than just the one slice.......It wouldn’t give right on the bottom of the pot on one side. When it finally did the roots came up from the bottom and she was flipped inside the medium..........basically worst case scenario 🤬🤬🤬 So what can you do.......you show her some extra love❤️ and talk softly to her😚 and promise to make her healthy👊 and strong💪 and never to hurt her agian😍😍🤞 Little more detail......... May 2/20 - Day 22 - 2L feed for each girl with CalMag @ 0.5ml, Vitathrive, Sensyzime, Piranha, Voodoo, Dual Fuel @ 1ml = 625ppm and 5.0pH - runoff numbers: - GSC 590ppm with 7.3pH - GSC2 580ppm with 7.2pH - why so high damn it?? May 3/20 - Day 23 - 6L mixed with Vitathrive, VeloKelp, Sensyzime @ 2ml, Piranha, Voodoo @ 1ml = 165ppm and 5.0pH - 3L given to each girl. - GSC girls have perked up the last three days. - GSC2 is getting wider but not taller. - Runoff numbers: - GSC - 725ppm and 6.9pH - GSC2 - 650ppm and 6.8pH - thinking that cheap fabric pots are the issue with high pH I am going to transplant two of the four girls into plastic pots and see how that goes. - GSC transplant went well. - GSC2 transplant not so well.......she caught the edge coming out of the old pot and her root mass became all twisted😞😞😞 May 4/20 - Day 24 - dry out day and leave them alone after being so shook up yesterday. May 5/20 - Day 25 - gave a small plain water feed of 2L each with ph to 5.0 - water and left them alone again today. May 6/20 - Day 26 - Feed day again. 1.5L each for each girl with Dual Fuel, Vitathrive @ 1ml, CalMag, VeloKelp @ 0.5ml = 675ppm and 5.1pH - the girls are working through it......just give them time. May 7/20 - Day 27 - simple feed today with VeloKelp @ 1ml and Sensyzime @ 2ml = 165ppm and 5.0pH - each girl given 1L. - GSC is looking like she is fighting back and starting to see her increase in size. - GSC2 is also coming along because her dying leaves are also starting to perk up. - Did some some stem twisting on GSC to help strengthen her stock. May 8/20 - Day 28 - Dry out day - The girls are doing well with the Kelp and while they are not much bigger they look healthier! - GSC2 low branches are not sitting in soil anymore👍 Cheers Growmies........have a great week!!!!!

Ya van llegando a su fin, las q estan mas cercanas a cosechar me parece serian la critical y bdom, la moby es la q mas le falta y creo q tiene fusarium porq le vi dos tallos bajos con unas manchas marrones asiq la voy a alejar de ellas y veremos q le pasa. La critical una locura la resina q tiene , es enana pero tiene pila de brazos y todos potentes gracias a los clip lst. La black dom es rarisima, nunca tuvo mucho pistilo es como q se engorda sin pistilos medio q salió pura hoja pero veremos, esta re tricomada tambien y tiene un olor muy rico al igual q la critical (todavia no distingo a que) La northern lights la coseche diminuta de 5cm no llegaba al g🤣 siempre cabe la posibilidad con las auto

Welcome back to my indoor grow with the beautiful White Skunk Automatic from White Label. In week 4, she started to grow faster and taller…finally ! The temperature in the grow room got a little lower and the plant seems healthy. This week I startet with LST to expose more light to the side branches. Hopefully she will respond good to it. Keep in touch ! Cheers, HighZenBerg

I topped the 2 last plants and started LST on all of them without any problem. The growth was pretty impressive this week, especially for the Wedding Cheesecake which is clearly bigger then the others. I had to add some supports to compensate the height difference between the plants. I removed some leaflets here and there during the week to give some light to the lower branches without removing too much leaves. I increased the light power to 75%. I will probably give them another week and then switch to the 12h/12h schedule. Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Gorilla Cookies : 29cm Purple Lemonade : 22.5cm Wedding Cheesecake : 37cm

Made itnto the main part everyone wants to get to... chop day. Wish i had a scale to get a wet weight but for the next harvest of the closet ill have a scale big enough.. loves growing these strains pretty deficiency resistant. Gave them 48hr dark period to see if i can notice a difference. Any questions feel free to ask.

First ever harvest! Plant #2 has been covered in trichomes for the last two weeks and with a jeweler's magnifying glass and my camera phone zooming 7x it's clear that many of trichomes have turned amber. I chopped her down last night and have been hanging the branches upside down in a cardboard box with a fan and dehumidifier. I've read I should keep the temperature in the 70s F and the humidity around 50%. I'm doing my best but the garage isn't well insulated so I'm at the mercy of the weather. I'll keep an eye on them and when the branches snap easily I'll get them in jars for curing. Plant #1 still has some time to go. The branches are filling out but to the naked eye there are no trichomes. When I look with the magnifying glass I can see them but I'm concerned that #2 had been coated in them for about two weeks now. Should I just wait? I think I'll just wait

WEEK 11 - (05/09/2021 - 05/15/2021) Week 3, Day 17 - FLOWER: 05/11/2021 Doing 2 gallons of water per 5 gallon pot this watering due to lack of runoff in weeks prior. I’m thinking I could be letting the pots dry out a little too long in between so the 1.5 gallons hasn’t been enough for each watering. When I stick my finger into the medium 2 or 3 days after watering it still seems like the soil has plenty of moisture so I wait another day or two. I know fabric pots are supposed to dry out usually in 2-3 days, but the soil still seems too moist, and I don’t want to overwater. It seems like ever since transplanting into 5 gallons and switching them to a 12/12 light cycle, watering got more complicated. Maybe I am overthinking the whole process. I just don’t want to risk ruining my crop, you know? Tap water: 223ppm, 8.6 pH, 70℉ (9 gallons total) + HydroGuard: 9ml/9 gallons + pH Down: 30ml/9 gallons Mixture: 267ppm, 6.0 pH, 70.4℉ ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 1330ppm/1063ppm, 6.3 pH AP#1 - 1310ppm/1043ppm, 6.3 pH AP#2 - 1160ppm/893ppm, 6.7 pH GC#1 - 1350ppm/1083ppm, 6.3 pH -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 3, Day 20 - FLOWER: 05/14/2021 Watered a day earlier than I usually do, with .5 gallons less water per plant. So each plant got a total of 1 gallon of water for their 5 gallon pots. This is really just to take the question out of the back of my mind: Am I letting the pots dry out too much going four days until the next watering? I will check on the plants shortly after they wake up tomorrow to observe their reaction to the watering. None of the plants produced really any runoff, which was boggling to me, because when I water there is usually anywhere between 10-20%, and that’s after watering on the fourth day. Needless to say, I was unable to take readings this time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 3, Day 21 - FLOWER: 05/15/2021 5:30 p.m. - Decided to check on the plants since I watered a day earlier (yesterday) than I have been since transplanting into the 5 gallon fabric pots. This was kind of an experiment to see how the plants would react to watering on the third day rather than the fourth, because I keep doubting myself. Anyway, when I checked in on the plants, a few leaves looked ever so slightly droopy. Not terrible. It appears that some of the leaves had begun to swell up a little as well. Not 100% sure if these are actually early signs of being overwatered this time, or if it’s something I have simply overlooked until now. Just to be sure, I’m going to water once more on the third day to see how the plants respond. The plants seem to be doing well this week. I've finally installed another ScroG net on the second level to help maintain the canopy. Since I cut the first layer of net the plants quickly started to get out of control and began to grow unevenly across the canopy. The trichomes are starting to appear on all of the plants, with the exception of the American Pie #1. This pheno is a little behind. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with how differently this plant was trained compared to her sisters (The manifold/mainline technique was applied). Possibly could have even defoliated her a little too heavy and she's taking a few extra days to bounce back. She's still producing early buds though, which is good. 👌 That just about wraps up this week. Things just keep getting more and more exciting with each journal entry. All the girls should have about 5-7 weeks left in flower before they are ripe for harvest. Hoping to have another tent and light setup by the end of flower so I can get some more seeds started. Thanks for stopping by and spreading the love. And remember: Don't drink and drive, smoke and fly! 🙌

Here they are, finished! The plant in the smaller tent definitely packed on much more weight. The issue with the other plant was being in a 12/12 tent and having a taller plant in there which was hogging the light. Still got beautiful smelling flowers. These were all taken in the last week of flowering. Super happy with the new setup that I put in with the Mars Hydro light! Very nice plants but they did take their sweet time in the beginning.

I topped every bud site on every plant, both indoors & outdoors. This one's staying nice & short for me. I can't wait to smell her beautiful aroma when she is in flowering.
