Was asked for more details on soil prep and irrigation. First irrigation, pulled a one inch poly tube hose off a one and a half inch pvc pipe. From the poly plugged in half inch lines that I have five micro sprinklers per row. Each micro puts out 4.7gph, they are placed offset to each other and at head to head spacing. The way this is set up each plant gets over lapped coverage from four sprinklers. Soil was lifted with a pick but not turned and broken. Then top dressed with compost and horse manure. Compost had .7lbs of nitrogen per hundred pounds of material. Horse manure was mainly wood shavings so no nitrogen little P, K, but there was a bit of salt it in. Chicken manure had 5N, 3P, 1K and 3200 ppm of mixed salts. Applied all of them with chicken on top then ran the irrigation for thirty six hours or so to flush as much salt out as possible. followed by two weeks to compost then just dug a hole just big enough to get the root ball in and done. After that I ran about five pounds of urea through the irrigation system once a week and every other week top dress turf pro 21-7-14. Till the first week of August now I'm just running 5oz of excite seaweed extract through the lines once a week. How that covers it all. Pics from today. These are all Durban pics first two are the same plant.
Quick update. Put down twenty pounds of potassium sulfate (0-0-52-21) and twenty pounds of triple phosphate (0-45-0). Watered for twelve hours, and two days later here we are. Durban are really taking off as well as Sapphire of and purple Trainwreck.
Girls are really coming along. Second to last pic is what's left of the walk path. Last pic notice all the green branches that got cut off. Cut some three and four foot branches off because they where so buried under all the foliage.
Damn dude, lookin healthy. This is THE outdoor grow to watch! Came across some durban buds at the weed store up here. Pretty good, but lacking that uplifting happy feeling from the shit both of us grew. Can't wait to see some final product
All the girls are looking real good sprayed entrust, pygronic 5.0 ec, sucrashield, and exicte seaweed extract once week ago, spraying again Thursday morning. No complaints here.
Holy fuckin shit! Damn it i wish i could come see in person. I'm going to make a trip down there next year hopefully
Started harvesting the Durban girls. I have dry weight on the first ones popcorn bud that went through the bowl trimmer. One plant popcorn bud 54 oz. Top buds are still drying guessing about five pounds maybe six.
Well here some bud porn as it's getting sticky out here. If you have a question on variety point out the picture and I will tell.
The plants with yellow leaves are the Durban. The first set is mostly purple trainwreck and white widows. Second post is mostly Sapphire og the really tall one I'd dedoverde haze. The last few nug pics In the second post is ghost train haze.
