Mikedin’s Living Soil Adventure and Living Soil discussion topic

[ChairmanFester]

If you go quite a way back in this topic you’ll see how I used to weave the main tops with wire Bonzai style… I’ve tried most methods lol

I think other people use profile histories on this and other social media way more than I do, I almost forget that it is there.

It’s really my main use for these journals this is like my 10th one but I wanted to do an all living soil topic lol

The big ass fans were removed they maxed out at 13” across, cleaned out around the base of the plant and got the net on, hopefully I dont Split a top I bent them pretty good to get r he net as low as possible, wired them together about an inch and a half above the topping point, a method I normally do to not split them when they get heavy later (I’ve done it a few times without the wire

Got some shredded straw on top of the hydra plant and have a whole bale of it so when I chop the cover crop in the 4x4 in another week or so I’ll have a nice mulch layer to go in on top of it

So you have the Juicy Pussy Strain as well..

Small update about the great white premium formula, still wont help you cause they wanna send me to the EU deparment but maybe they will tell me if the formula is the same or different and if it really has thuringiensis or not. I cant tell you for sure because Ive been alternating it with the AN trio which also has thuringiensis so I dont know if they come from the AN trio, Great White or both. Will keep you posted, gonna contact the EU department now. They didnt wanna confirm nor deny if it has it, thats sus though.

We had a mix of hashes in the 90’s and early 2000’s I’m up right near the Canadian border, most stuff came down from canada shrooms, bud, hash, E, like the ol red hair beasters but I know some idiots too and they’d come around and say yo I got this ball of hash… I’d look at it and tell em guys, that’s opium . Not that we passed it up but I did have to correct em lotta guys diddnt even know, saw guys snortin H sayin it was coke I’m like guys… it’s not even white…. Who the hell you buyin shit from

I've never had hash. I've looked for opium in the past but no luck. I'd like to smoke some.

You can do cheapie "hash" by witing for your kief screen on the grinder to fill up, put it in the corner of a baggie, 2 drops of water only, and crush a ball of playdough with the open bag end hanging out. 4 days = hash, kinda. The evaporation tube draws the kief even tighter.

Oh I know, I just need to be persistent. I had a spanish brand that didnt wanna tell me what was in theirs, which made me suspicious, the price was fair but... they said they couldnt give me the formula, I said thats not a good bussiness strategy because every company I e-mail gives me the formula and Im not gonna buy something without knowing what it has. Well turns out he could make an exception and game me the lab resuts, I think it was 2 types of bacillus and 1 trichoderma, the barely minimum. I could post it but its in spanish.
EDIT: Oh I also suggested they launched a more complete product and more expensive, keeping that one aswell. Hopefully they will take it into consideration, I buy some stuff from that brand, some of it is very affordable and good quality, just not the microorganisms blend.

That trick is perfect for when I run of quality kief. The only way youre gonna make that stick into hash is adding humidity, specially if the material is very dry, which should be. Im not gonna lie, even with good kief sometimes I just liked my fingers and grabed a bunch to make 1 quick joint. We lick the paper cant be that bad
PD: Id love to try opium aswell but nobody sells that here.

I use great white powder microrhyzzihoosen (Idk I don't listen to Hip-Hop). It helps in two key spots mid to late veg and late-mid flower to a little before finish. If I actually planned and developed my soil I would have numbers, but so far general ratios have worked out.
Who knows, by next week my plants will randomly do something rebellious like die.

Oh I remember the opium hash . Was surprised by how many people actually got ahold of that shit. Those were some super lazy hazy days on a couch!!!!!

i remember smoking bowls of that, while high on acid and mmda being front row at an outdoor dead show in rochester or buffalo can’t remember,.. i ended up being so high that night that i didn’t remember much other than flashes of reality like being helped by 2 people in the “tapers section” being kindly removed,.. among other things,..

Just upstate NY in 98-2002.

My group out at Sterling gave up on opium after like 2 years because we never left camp. Missed a lot of music and just getting ticket value for the show. We hole up in the OSHA Safety Tent over some K or something but definitely there is a concerted effort to "GET OFF THE MIRROR AND TAKE A WALK!!!!" lol.

I grew up in a very small town. Opium only came around once or twice per year. Had there been a continuous supply; I'd prolly still be there, sitting in the same lazyboy, puffing away in a lazy delirium.... Hands down my favorite buzz as a teen. I'm thankful it was very scarce...

Andddd it’s fuck em up time! Chop and drop done, minced it up nice and layered had extra foliage… a lot…put it on the back room 4x4 since it’s down it can use a free organic layer lol, topped it off with 2” of chopped straw and will water it in heavy, also top dressed with 3 cups of EWC, about 2 gallons of dominion blend and 6 cups of build a flower

 

[ChairmanFester]

I really should hay top like that, I don't know why I haven't.

 

[Mikedin]

I knew some people like that. And the "soapium" wave.


I'm trying the opposite with LST this time, instead of pulling tension with tie downs using wire, I think using more of the fundamental properties of wire lends a more generally positive vibe, and because wire is stiff I can instead use opposing spacers. This also brings in symmetry which I think is nice.
It's hoodoo witchcraft justification, yes.
DOIN IT.

Knew I had a old style of bonzai / LST / my style training
These were cali blues and cali dream from @Captspaulding one of these was the cai blue freak I ran a few rounds of she was wild

But I also have a time lapse of them after the training lol
