9/13 - Day 35: Premixed soil to prepare for upcoming transplanting.
SOIL MIX DETAILS:
Mixed into a 50 gallon container that will be kept in a warm environment to help innocculate to promote a vast and diverse microbial life in the rhizosphere.
2 Part - Royal Gold Tupur

Inocculated by mixing 1 cup of Extreme Gardening Mycos
Watered with pH 6.5 h2O
1 Tsp/gal Real Grower's Recharge
1 tsp/gal Hi-Brix Molasses
2 tsp/gal Fox Farms Kangaroots
9/16 - Day 38: This cultivar is looking really good! She's one of the bushiest in the garden! She may end up being a challenge to keep in her own lane, especially in flower. I will probably end up havingbto do quite a bit of pruning with her. I did notice some white blotches on a few leaves as well as several other plants in the garden. I'm not sure if it's just water spots from my helper's carelessly watering causing water spots from the Nutrient solution or the start of a PM infection. Never really dealt with PM, but decided to spray them with some serenade. I also sprinkled with a little more White Dutch Clover seed on top soil.
9/17 - Day 39: I installed the new 320w GeekLight in the 24" x 48" veg tent.
GOOD NEWS:
I upgraded the 24"x48" tent to Samsung LM301H boards. I ordered a 320w straight single piece heatsink with 3 boards from Geeklight. I went with the 3k spectrum and switchable UV/IR since all my autoflowers bloom under this light. $306 USD after all is said and done. It took 9 calendar days to ship from China.
