The infamous swamp donkeys! hahaha i guess swamp donkey turds is synonymous for moose farts
Yeah they really are! Im stoked they're all flowering earlier than the others. I actually didnt expect the white critical express to start as early as it did but awesome nonetheless. They do seem like they are quite resistant so far, I haven't had any issues with PM just yet (knock on wood) and we have had some really humid days lately, plus some of the plants are reeaaally bushy and thought I would be having issues with these bushy ones. I guess
neem oil applications in the beginning do really help. Hoping there is no bud rot issues once the buds really start to fatten up!
I think in the spring ill amend the soil with some neem seed meal and then next year Ill top dress with it in order to have some pest prevention throughout flowering. I stopped my
neem oil applications once the most of the plants started flowering.
You guys got rain where you are?! Its been scorching hot with barely any rain the past few weeks where I am. I have been watering 100 gallons of water to these plants every two to three days lately. Hope your plants are okay, and you take care as well!
I need to figure out a new system for watering. Its getting quite annoying to mix two separate batches of notes and hand water 100 gallons of water at a time. Next year I will have to create some sort of gravity drip system for the plants. I am thinking perhaps give each plant its own gravity drip system made from a 5-10 gallon pail and some drip irrigation tubing. Then instead of watering with cans, I would transfer water from my mixing barrel to these buckets, which would be placed near the base of each plant.
I have heard of people just drilling holes in the bottom of pails and placing a pail full of water near the plant, which would seep slowly into the soil. I feel like adding some irrigation tubing to disperse the water around the plant would be better. Anyone have any input on this idea? That is, a single gravity fed drip irrigation for each individual plant? I know it would not be practical with many plants but with the number I have could it be okay?
