Thank you PM,https://www.bioworksinc.com/botanigard-es/
Suggest using this weekly instead of Neem oil daily. Start the minute they’re outside or they’re large enough to spray indoors.
Think that really weird one should be replaced? I'm thinking that thing is weeks away from looking right, if ever.You can use BotaniGard up to the day before you chop. It’s non-toxic to people and pets.
Heck no. Get bugs handled and keep going. Your huge container is holding back growth for now. But once roots find boundaries they’ll take off.Think that really weird one should be replaced? I'm thinking that thing is weeks away from looking right, if ever.
Thank you! I'll keep a backup on deck just in case.Heck no. Get bugs handled and keep going. Your huge container is holding back growth for now. But once roots find boundaries they’ll take off.
More growth because of container size. Just give them time and don’t overwater or overdo the nutrients.Thank you! I'll keep a backup on deck just in case.
Forgot to add that I started it's backup at same time. It's of similair size in a 5 gal, but with more consistent healthy growth. Don't want to leave anything out.
There is one inconsistency with that Charlie Brown Christmas tree plant I should add- I transplanted it into a narrow and deep pot(2 gal) compared to the shallow and wide pots(also 2 gal) I used with the others. I wouldn't think that would effect anything but the drainage is much slower than the other after the final transplant.More growth because of container size.

Graduated container size transplanting results in faster root development and vegetative growth. When it has outgrown the Solo cup then put in a half gallon container at the largest. Next time 1 gallon and etc.There is one inconsistency with that Charlie Brown Christmas tree plant I should add- I transplanted it into a narrow and deep pot(2 gal) compared to the shallow and wide pots(also 2 gal) I used with the others.

I personally don't really buy into the rootbound claims to much. It's more about the ability to keep a stable media is more difficult in smaller pots.There is one inconsistency with that Charlie Brown Christmas tree plant I should add- I transplanted it into a narrow and deep pot(2 gal) compared to the shallow and wide pots(also 2 gal) I used with the others.

Nobody has mentioned rootbound. Nobody. I’ve grown a few years and know what works. You can believe it or blow it off. I’ll chop big no matter what you do.I personally don't really buy into the rootbound claims to much. It's more about the ability to keep a stable media is more difficult in smaller pots.
This may help explain how pot size and shape will affect watering and plants.
Marijuana Watering, how media, pot size/shape and environment affect it
Ok lots of posts on how to water plants. So I thought I would put together a thread on how different factors contribute to different results that ppl see. This will be a long read based on my personal knowledge, opinions, research and others work to consolidate information for our members. I'm...www.thcfarmer.com
all your fruit trees and plants are attracting the insects..Alright, I'm reaching here. The past few years have been pretty turbulent with loss and grief. My gardens are my brief respite from the craziness. I have a lot of fruits and veggies in my outdoor beds which always seem incredibly productive.
Last year my 6 plants (green house) turned into 5 in July, then 4 in August. Not for lack of effort, but by creating the wrong environment using my own dense hand sifted compost. The 4 barely produced, and were plagued with thrips and mites so spraying was constant.
Had a really good start this year(about 2 months ago in march) then damaged all my starts a few weeks ago with the first transplant going into 20% chicken compost and 80% high porosity potting soil.
Attributed damage to N burn, and then noticed thrips and possible russet or broad mite damage.
I've been spraying neem every evening for the last 2 weeks and new growth looks generally good on shoots and tops of plants, but I'm wondering if production would be better on fresh seedlings or even clones at this point after kicking my plants in the nuts, so to speak. I still have at least 5 months until harvest. Please help me have a good year!
Didn't say they did... just commenting on the container sizes. Not sure what the issue is here. Nor did I comment about on your harvestNobody has mentioned rootbound. Nobody. I’ve grown a few years and know what works. You can believe it or blow it off. I’ll chop big no matter what you do.
Yeah plenty of room there... like @Pushrod Monkey said if you up pot multiple times you will get a very nice full pot of roots. They will always grow down as that's where the most moisture is and gravitropism just sends em down. So by doing it the way he says you will have a larger amount of roots exposed to an area higher in oxygen and much more even distribution of roots.Found a photo right before it went in the big pot.
