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 👍

7 weeks in, and the girls are flowering nicely. Some are close to peak bloom and max feed levels (MBAP) and some have only just started to form the first small buds (PP). The 2 x MBAP and 2 x SOH seem to be the furthest along. Interesting that these are under the much more powerful 480w QB. I've no idea if there's any correlation between light intensity and the speed of an autoflower's life cycle, but all the plants I've grown under the QB seem to finish much quicker than those under the purple LEDs. Pink Panama first started showing small noticeable budding around day 45 (compared to SOH which started flowering around day 18), so I think she's gonna be one of the last to finish up. Check out the long, spindly fan leaves in the pic, the sativa is strong in this one. The mixture of different smells coming from these ladies is absolutely mouth watering. It's more like a taste than a smell!! The WW is reeking like lemon meringue pie. Not a sharp lemon smell, but real smooth and creamy. The BGS straight up smells like "Anglo Bubbly" brand bubblegum, if you know it. Super Orange Haze is certainly living up to it's name, giving off a sweet, cloying Sunny Delight type smell. But over the top off all those smells lurks the MBAP. Fuck me, this stuff stinks. Heavy and dank as hell, like some kind of swamp beast. It's quite menacing, leaves you wondering if it's safe to breathe it in :) I've had some feeding issues with the MBAP along the way, but it's knocking out some fat buds for sure. Nice long, bulky colas, which are probably going to need some support soon. The Walter White is also super impressive. She's been LST'd as much as space would allow, but the thing still looks so much like a damn Christmas tree that I want to put a star on top. Feeding levels of MC range from 5g a gallon up to 6.5g a gallon depending on the plant. Bud Explosion ranging from 1.5 to 2g a gallon. Have a great bank holiday everyone :)

It was a interesting grow I had Spider mites in flowering. I treated with lady bugs. Seemed to do the trick. All my other autos got hplvd. This likely had it too at end with close proximity to them. She made it. Great looking plant, and smell. Thank you Mars Hydro. DO NOT BUY AMS. The owner is a convicted criminal, and he stole 550 dollars from me. It's not worth it.

Well I'm a bit upset last week I ended up dropping my ph meter in a tank of nutes I was mixing and by the time I got it out the meter was junk. I was planning on flushing the crystal but had to wait another week for the meter. I suppose the good thing to take from this was I found out why I was having issues with my plants. When the new ph meter came in I went to check my run off and my nutes that I had all ready mixed up. It turns out that my meter i had been using this whole grow was off by about -2-2.5 so this whole time I had been feeding the plants at around 3ph smfh. I cant believe they look how they do knowing what went on this whole time. Fastbuds crystal meth is 3days into flush and i will be cutting it down this weekend most likely. Mephisto hubbabubbasmelloscope is smelling like sweet sweet candy and is thick in resin Bighead seeds freeze berry/ blueberry crumble has a dank pungent stank to it and also is frosty but larrfy Big bomb is still growing thick and have bud sites everywhere Now I'm ready for the next batch and ready to get dialed in!

Eccoci qui... Non ho più parole per giudicare questa meraviglia!!! Strain 1 è la migliore varietà che io abbia mai coltivato, nel processo di maturazione delle cime ho visto qualcosa di assurdo in quanto questa piccola ha una maturazione totalmente diversa rispetto a tutte le altre erbe!!! Sono davvero soddisfatto, peccato che Strain 2 sia cresciuta storta, ma poco importa anche essa ha cime che sono dure come sassi, e sono solo 4 settimane di’ fioritura, NE VEDREMO DELLE BELLE!!! Grazie a @KhalifaGenetics e @xpertnutrients per la collab e a tutti per il supporto🔥🌲❤️

Og candy dawg auto is into week 7. She has got super bushy and has a load of bud sites.... But i would rather have 8-10 good chunky colas rather than 50 small bud sites. The trimming kills me. So i experimented... I have never defoliated an auto this severely before, i really massacred her. Probably stripped about 60% I know its a risk and i might have stressed her to the point of hermie but im curious as to how much abuse she can take. We will see in next weeks update if there is one

She's picking up steam. Already showing white pistils. I was a bit late again with the LST so hopefully I dont get another gigantic main cola. I fed her first nutrients a few days ago and she looks healthy and no signs overdoing the nutes, yay! I should mention I ended up putting more soil into the pot around at week 2 as is compacted quite a bit which is why it measures a bit on the smaller side.

Konnte leider diese Woche noch nicht düngen, weil der kleine Topf immernoch nass war. Sieht nach einem kleinen Wachstumsstop aus.

End of Week 12 (Fifth week of flower) The ladies are smelling reDANKulous and are so frosty and sticky I can't remove fan leaves without getting my hands sticky. Next level terpene profiles. I did a final increase in CO2 to 1500ppm. The main top-sites are taking shape. I have been keeping a cooler average temperature - and also keeping the relative humidity lower. Pest Report: None

Performed as advertised, some bud rot bear harvest on #1 but two weeks of fog 8 hours a day will do that. Although in saying that, #2 had zero rot or WPM, so that's pretty impressive considering the season IMO. Harvested after 7 weeks flower, but they were showing reds and wanted to avoid any more issues due to crappy weather. Harvest totals Plant #1. 295g bud and 270g trim Plant #2. 476g bud and 200g trim All fan leaves were removed before drying so trim is mostly sugar leaves packed with THC. Great for hash 👍
