Hell yeah, buddy-w! Looking great man. I love the look of that cab dude nice work. Have you thought about using a mulch? I'm subbed up man. I'll find a chair...
Mulch as a top dressing to keep the moisture at the surface of your soil. It also helps to lessen the impact of pouring water on the soil unless you've set up a SIP for watering from the bottom. Here is mulch using timothy hay that is for rabbits. View attachment 134477
Haven't smoked in 15 years. Hopefully in about 4 years I'll be retired and be able to taste my rewards. My Soil is ITG recipe. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1285119-My-Cab-In-The-Basement
Mulch is awesome. It keeps the top layer of the soil moist by blocking light and air movement from drying it out. That way all those surface microbes stay alive and cycling and your plants can take full advantage of all of the soil. Roots can grow right up under the mulch and use all of the nutrients in the soil. Instead of having the top inch be dry soil, you have an inch of dry mulch. Also it allows water to flow right thru without pooling on top. In nature there is never bare soil. There is always something covering it. Obviously it's not essential, but it is an excellent addition. Just a thought.
I see where mulch would be handy. I have half that bag of perlite left and some smart pots, Just wanted to get something going in the mean time. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1285119-My-Cab-In-The-Basement
I see the kelp meal and garden tone but what is in the other bags? My amendments I used for my first soil were (at 1/2 cup per cubic foot) kelp meal, azomite, crab meal, garden tone, alfalfa meal and neem seed meal. I added 3 cups per cubic foot of granite rock dust. My base soil mix was peat moss 50%, EWC 30% and pumice (aeration) 20%.
Neem seed meal and alfalfa meal. Added 4 cups of granite dust from the local granite place. My ratio was 2 cups kelp, 1 cup each of alfalfa, neem, and garden tone. Put 4 cups of that mixture per cft. My base was 1/3 peat,1/3 ewc/compost and 1/3 perlite with a cup of ag lime. http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1285119-My-Cab-In-The-Basement
Your cab looks sweet buddyweiser I'm using a small(er) cab also, in the basement closet. are you planning to do any training on your plants? Noticed you transplanted them off-center a little.
They're all planted in the center. The 2 NL are regular seeds so I have them LSTd. Plan on topping the Bubblelcious.
Looking like one of the NL is gonna be a male http://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?/topic/1285119-My-Cab-In-The-Basement
