My worm bins have a fair amount of fresh, rich castings, so I probably should make a tea from the castings, molasses and what else you think man? Been reading the alfalfa in flower thread and others. Lots of opinions.

This is my absolute first go at this and so I made up a batch of my own modified supersoil and let it cook for a couple months. So far the plants look awesome and the growth has been really kicking. I know I can do much, much better.

Run after next I'm upgrading to 20 gallon smart pots and going 100% no till. I'm also gonna go more with alfalfa meal, crab meal, neem meal and kelp meal, and cut out the blood and bone out of my amendments. I'll need a helluva lot more soil, that I need to get going ASAP. Also gonna add some rock dust and utilize cover crops and lots of mulch/enzymes to my soil and see how it goes.

I'm pretty excited to really fill in all my grow space next run, since I have all three girls I have left successfully rooted and in pots of their own, under 6500K fluorescent tubes. Culling and growing the phenos I want is the plan. Included is a pic of two of the newly rooted moms to be...if they make the cut.

Day 29 since flip.

20 gallons seems like huge pots? I'm new to organics tho. But I've even able to cut my flowing pots in half since switching. 3 or 5 gallon now 7-10 back when I used synthetics.

This will be a no till grow, utilizing mulch and enzymes and attempting to mimic a real life natural soil. There's a fella on another site's organic section who I'm trying to emulate and he recommends 20 gallon minimum in order to give you room to work. His results speak for themselves and honestly, the whole layers of mulch decomposing naturally, untilled, worms, microbes, fungi and all, working together in a symbiotic relationship without much if any work kinda turns me on. Makes me wanna grow my hair long and get nekked. Lol.

Haha. Yeah I feel ya. That makes since though. What are the advantage of no till compared to breaking down soil? Soil food web stays intact? And how long donyou let sit before reuse?

On the left side we have Frisian Dew in the back left square pot, gorilla fuck x GG#4 in the left front square pot. Square pot in front middle is OG Larry x HB#2 from RIU member, behind it in square pot is gorilla fuck x GG#4, the funky looking one in back is a GG#4 reveg. The ones in square pots were all transplanted yesterday morning.

On the right side is Sour Grape in the front fabric pot, sour grape is looking sad, recently transplanted up. On the right front is Khaos Kush. Behind the Sour Grape is my two auto experiments, one is White Widow auto, and the big one is Think Different. The Think Different is so vigorous I'm worried about it lol. The dark green one in the far right corner is Amnesia Haze, I love her leaf shape and color. She just has an aggressive look about her...

The three humidity domes are for seedlings, I think its a gorilla fuck x GG#4 and 2x GG#4 S1's

I've just put them under my CMH last night from a 8bulb t5ho panel, hopefully they like it...

These plants will be vegged out and cut into clones. Some will be kept slowly growing till spring, some will be grown and flowered indoors, some will be given away.

I'll be moving away from this house in the coming weeks, and need to set up a new space to rock out.

hawaiian snow and critical kush on day 60 of 12/12. both planted around november 20. wish i vegged another week to 10 days. was a bit scared the HS would outgrow my box as i only have a 2x4x5 tent. grown in amended supersoil. top dressed with a bit of kelp, molasses, bat g, mycos. i should not have added so much nitrogen starting to burn up the hawaiian snow a bit.
the critical kush has handled it like a champ. great thread!
