thank you every one :)

just watered the ladies..... an evening watering.... I have been watering during the hottest part of the day, but today it didn't seem like they needed it, but that they would need it first thing in the morning.... and I am sleeping in tomorrow (hopefully). As I was watering I noticed yet again that I am tremendously behind, that there have been many things I have intended and wanted to do that I just haven't done, and that the possibility of them getting done, and done as they should be done, is becoming less and less likely. I may have over watered a little bit lately..... anticipating that the plants would use more water than they have been. I'm not exactly sure though. The inner growth on some of the plants is yellowing a bit more than I had anticipated. The days have certainly been long, hot, and dry, and the plants sure are growing vigorously. I have run out of most all of the veg nutrients that I have, and am left with soil amendments and no money. Hopefully amending the soil by top dressing will be enough to see them through until I can afford more nutrients, they seem to all be eating a good amount, and I know the bacteria and cultured enzymes in the soil are eating. I still have 6 beds left to get up, and that many plants to get in the ground. I plan to take a good amount of cuttings from the plants in the next few days, and to start flowering a few plants indoors as well. I think I may pick up some new genetics, or at least some more plants, sometime very soon. I could use about 20 new healthy plants.

I am going to wait a full 8 days before taking pictures, and when I do I plan on putting up a quick time line of the growth in the garden. I have a lot to organize and do in the next week, and I think the difference will be worth waiting for. Thanks for all the support and well wishes, thats what it is all about... Good Things.

So.... all my life I have been afraid no one would come to my wedding..... that it wouldn't be as special as I wanted, or my future wife. So we have been putting off getting married for a few years. We have decided though, and set the date. Lavenderstars and I are getting Married 04-20-2012. We plan on getting married at the Coastal mountain range here in California, and want as many people to be there as can be. I have had it in my mind to rent a whole campground for 3 or 4 days, so a few hundred people can pack in.

Some of you may not know yet how much you mean to me. But I have spoken with Lavenderstars, and we would be THRILLED if some of you could make it to our wedding..... Its a couple years away so there is plenty of time to plan...... but yeah..... hehehe wanna come?

I ran out of nutrients to feed my ladies, pretty much all the plants were due for a feed today, so this is what I did.

Had 2 lb.s of Seabird guano.... So I spread that all around the sides of ALL of the beds (its a thin yellow powder) about 6 to 10 inches out. I put 1/2 inch layer of Gardner & Bloom Soil Building Compost over that, and G&B Earth Worm Castings on top of that. Mixed it together a little bit.

I mixed up Gardner & Bloom Harvest Supreme, Steer Manure, and Earth Worm Castings, and spread it in the isles.

I top dressed INSIDE of the beds of all of the largest plants, and plants that have been transplanted the longest, with a mix of: Gardner & Bloom Soil Building Compost, Gardner & Bloom Harvest Supreme, Gardner & Bloom Blue Ribbon soil, and Fox Farms Ocean Forest. This was all mixed together and laid out in a layer about an inch to two inches thick inside of the beds.

After all the amendments and top dressings were set out I watered thoroughly.

A couple days ago I put 12' posts in the ground about along the largest PK plants. One fell over today on top of a Nutes Green Goblins Haze (Center Isle), it broke half the branches on one side of the plant . Im not sure if I am going to try to tie the branches up, or just cut them off.... a couple are only hanging on by threads.... might cut some off and leave some on to mend......

try to attach them with electrical tape or whatever tape you got. if they manage to stay and heal keep them if not cut em off. but give em a day or 2. if they are still alive(the branches) they will heal

There are going to be some nice bonfires this upcoming season too.....

Went to the local nursery and picked some stuff up for the garden:

2- 3 cubic foot bags of Gardner & Bloom Soil Building Compost. http://www.gbsoil.com/site4/products.htm
2- 2 cubic foot bags of Gardner & Bloom Harvest Supreme. http://www.gbsoil.com/site4/products.htm
1- OMRI listed Kelloggs Rose & Flower Fertilizer. (the green bag)
1- Bottle Green Light Root Stimulator & Starter Solution. http://www.greenlightco.com/products...artersolution/
1- Bottle Liquinox Iron & Zinc.
1- Gallon Liquinox Fish Emulsion.

Kelloggs Ganular and Adding soil outside of beds

The idea is this.... I just spread some stuff around in the isleds and beds etc (see post 498 on previous page), but I don't think its quite enough for whats going on right now. I have noticed chlorosis in the two Largest PK plants, and the Larger CCxHJ and Pure Sativa (the first "set" of plants that were transplanted into the ground). I ran out of FF Gro Big, and everything else I had.

I am going to spread the Kellogs Granular fertilizer around the outsides of all the beds. It's 4-6-2, and its primarily derived from Bone meal, Dried Poultry Waste, Elemental Sulfur, Feather Meal, Kelp Meal, Alfalfa Meal, and Potassium Sulfate. It also contains Non-Plant food ingredients, . The types and amounts are listed right on the bag (one of the reasons I bought this product). Its listed in Colony Forming Units (CFU) per gram. It lists as follows.

Bacillus Pumilus- 1,000,000
Bacillus Subtilis- 500,000
Bacillus Licheniformis- 1,000,000
Bacillus Amylolliquefaciens- 1,000,000
And Also Extremely important to me is it contains 2% Humic Acids (derived from Leonardite)

Onto Mycorrhizae: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycorrhiza
This product contains 444 viable mycorrhizal propagules per gram of the following organisms:

Ectomycorrhizae- Propagules/gram
Pisolithus Tinctorius- 400
Rhizopogon villosuli-12
Rhizopogon luteolus-11
Rhizopogon amylopogon-10
Rhizopogon fulvigleba-11

Endomycorrhizae-
Glomus intraradices- 0.09
Glomus mosseae- 0.09
Glomus etunicatum- 0.09



Once its spread around the beds and into the isles a little bit, I am going to cover it with about a 1/2 inch of a 3 part mix of local soil, Gardner & Bloome Harvest Supreme, and Gardner & Bloome Soil Building Compost. Im guessing this will particularly benefit the center isle of plants in the smaller boxes . I only plan on using 5 of the 10 cubic feet of soil I just got to do this.

Liquinox and Green Light, feeding solutions for in the raised beds and transplanting.

Liquid Feedings In the Beds:
I have used a couple different Liquinox products in the past, and they worked really well for me, so I picked these up today based on what I am seeing from my plants right now, and the results I got from their other products in the past. What I am seeing from the Older Plants is the start of Iron, sulfur, and zinc deficiencies leading to overall macro deficiencies and slower growth and possible future health issues (my mycorrhizae needs food too ). I just topdressed the soil in the beds as per post 498 on the previous page. The nutrients from that top dressing will release slowly and be usable over time to the plants, the plants are HUNGRY NOW, and need more food to grow vigorously and healthily. So I am going to feed them using the Liquinox Iron and Zinc First at 2 tblspns per gallon Fe 0.2% Zn 0.2% (5 gallons), and then the Fish emulsion at 1.5 tblspns per gallon (6 gallons). The Fish emulsion is 0.50% ammoniacal Nitrogen, 3.50% Water Soluble Nitrogen, 1.00% Urea Nitrogen. This will be fed IN the BEDS only.

Green Light Root Stimulator In the Isles:
I haven't used too many Green Light products in the past, but this one was well recommended to me by a trusted grower (full synthetic). I am going to use it to promote root growth to come further out into the isles under the topsoil, while feeding the already existing roots closer to the raised beds, and having readily available nutes for the new root shoots going further into the isles. NPK its at 5-15-5. 4.14% Ammoniacal Nitrogen, 0.86 Urea Nitrogen. It has trace amounts of chlorine in it (Less than 3%) . It has the active root hormone indole3-butyric acid added at 0.0004%. After I top dress the isles again I will use it at 1 1/2 Tblspns per gallon (1/2 strength).

I hope to have the topdressing done this evening. And do some feeding tomorrow afternoon, .

Any thoughts?

There are a couple posts leading up to this one on the previous page ;).

thanks man.

Actually... I have been considering dropping this journal.... not really getting any feedback, and I am not sure anyone here is benefiting from this journal. Its a lot of work to get it all posted here and other places.... so I might cut this one out.... and just watch other peoples grows here.... might do an indoor journal here though.... just not sure yet. I like to be actively communicating reciprocally with other growers..... doesn't seem like people here have much to say to me is all.... and because I get more responses in other places, I am putting more info in those other places in response to people.

Keeping up with these plants sure is a challenge.... they are all different, and doing and needing different things.... Like today. I want to go feed right now..... but Im not sure if they have too much moisture in the soil for it to be a good thing for them...... some definitely need it, others don't seem to need it so much right now, and I prefer to get it all done at once.....

I think you have a pretty decent following here, but at least I know I can follow it elsewhere if you do decide to drop it here.

I've gotten plenty from your threads man, knowledge and a lift in spirit.

So keep it up brother your doing good here.

Pic 3- Lower Garden, NGGH center, yes this one revegged....


Pic 4- See reveggin.....


Pic 5- SouthSide NGGH.... my favorite phenotype of NGGH..... I stole this plant from Lavenderstars batch because I like this phenotype so much .


Pic 6- Original Maui Skunk..... This IMO is the perfect Sativa Dom plant


Pic 7- The house favorite.... Sensi Star.... vegging right along.... how tall will she get? This plant is going to need TONS of support because SS branches are rubbery.


Pic 8- Looking East..... All PK in front....


Pic 9- Different angle on that....


Pic 10- Good shot of PK "wide", looking East.


Pic 11- PK "Tall"....... have to stand ten + feet back to get these in the cameras view...... I trimmed some of the bottom branches on this plant earlier today.

I did some the exact same way I did the veggies tires, with chicken wire for the gofers and everything... and a couple I just stuck in the ground and raked in ammendments, no chicken wire.... As you can see a couple I mounded, and a couple I didn't....

Haven't been to the forums in a while, been very busy with life. Hope all is well with you.

As for your garden, I am lost for words. What you are doing my friend is mind blowing. Your dedication continues to inspire me on my journey. I am very thankful for having you around here.

I am almost certain that I am going to be trying a plant or two in soil very soon.
I will grow a strain which I have previously grown in coco. I have 3 plants that have vegged in 1/2 gallon pots in coco. I am thinking about transplanting them in 3gal 100% FFOF. For 2-3 weeks I will feed them compost tea and RO. After that I will slowly introduce some cal-mag and some PK boosters.

What do you reckon, good plan or do you suggest something else. I am going to do exactly as you say.
