It is the best naturally forming soil that exists, period, end of discussion. If your plant doesnt like it you did something wrong xD hahahahaha
Im halfway down a mountainside where the creek lines converge and flatten out for about 100 yards before going back down the rest of the ridge line to the river.
I got all the minerals washing out the mountaintops, and all that organic meadow matter, in a single flood plane a 5 minute walk from where im planting
10 days separates these two pics. 10 days and just add water.
Well drained flood plane loam will give you damn near hydroponic growth rates. I dug each plant out about 1 foot deep 2 foot wide. Bottom 8 inches or so, straight flood plane loam with a tiny bit of sand mixed in. Top few inches, straight compost and goat manure. Then i just used the local ground detritus to mulch.
Considering it was a mid april seed pop, i got a feeling this one's gonna be a monster, barely over a month old.
I did give a feeding of some flora micro yesterday because i have it though lol. But im really feeding the soil ecosystem more then the plants the way this is setup. Beyond the amended soil, the rest is very dense, mineral depleted clay because im on a mountain and planted near a ridge. It drains surprisingly well though. Assuming im on super porous bedrock considering the number of caves in the area. The rain has washed all the good stuff down into the flood plane tho, and thats exactly why i brought it back up here lmao.
If the laws ever change, im glad i have this land, because ill be putting entire bush sized sativas out in early june directly on the edge of that floodplane too. I got enough room down there for a dozen true monsters. Its a gentle southward facing slope/plane that gets about 9-11 hrs direct a day. It's a truly perfect spot for giant sativa genetics. Edge of a Natural flood plane too, i wouldnt ever have to amend the soil, just not plant in the exact same spot every season and figure out the prime distance from the main creek channel.
Is funny though, the original owner of this land was having a nightmare trying to sell the house and the lot together because of the flood plane down in the back yard, and how insanely fast the grasses grow there and all the mosquitos, and theres a yellow jacket nest in literally every rotting stump down there. They found it quite odd that i only wanted the house if the floodplane was on its lot too lmao.
Where im planting now only gets about 4-5 hrs direct, prob 6 come fall.
Saying an over limit fine Of $50 per plant! That would come to……. I’m getting a headache!
You go, girl!!!
