It's not all about the plant shots

It's not all about the plant shots

Some of the least visually appealing pictures have gave me ideas that have became a significant part of my game plan.

A couple of ours.

Questions/Comments. Hell, insults, bring them all.

You are dead on with that statement about the unseen things. No comment about the tea but what are you going to do with the green house? Aloha

Thanks that is what I was guessing never had to use one of those before. Clones grow about a foot after you bring them out side and they are done in 2 mos. I will be cutting my green house down and replanting with long season seed crop mid July. The Trainwreck X Twisted sis is amazing. Now all I need is it to stop raining. We have had 44.5 inches this year a little less then normal. Sorry to ramble on your post had to put down my 14 yr dog today so just needed to ramble.

Sorry to hear about your dog man, god bless. One of the hardest things that have ever happened to me is when my last dog had an untimely death.

Ramble on. My dogs are important to me in the same way my friends and family are. I'll give my life for my dog. Test me.

Remember the good times, my man.

Have you used the VAM product before? I keep seeing ads for it in Acres, USA.

Weather got like last year today, too.

No, I've used other similar products with great results. I liked the spore count and diversity of this product, so I give it a shot.

Plants seem to be loving this peculiar weather.

been a little while since an update, little over a week. Anyways, the cooler weather is finally over. I applied some mycostop and did a good watering as well so that they hit the ground running once things heat up. Judging by how they look today this strategy worked just as I'd expected.

here's some good instructions on how to apply:

Trichoderma harzianum (RootShield etc), Bacillus subtilis (Companion etc), Streptomyces griseoviridis (Mycostop etc), etc are all fairly broad spectrum biofungicides. These are soil fungi, bacterium, actinomycetes - they are the beneficials in the soil. What we are talking about is simply upping the population of particular beneficials that target particular soilborne pathogens. If I had leaves that were still down 3 weeks+ after transplant through various soil saturation levels, and they were not rootbound and no breakage etc, then I'd start to suspect that something may indeed be amiss down below.

So far so good over here, but I have confirmed several cases of fungal disease this year already (and June is early for this historically) in different gardens where the only common denominator seems to be this snotty spring we just had. So I am inoculating for soilborne pathogens, as a preventative measure.

For Mycostop, I stir a 5g pack into 1/2 gallon of water, let rest for 30min, stir again, then mix that solution into about 12 gallons of water in the sprayer. Soil surface spray about 1 gallon of that per large container (so a 5gram pack does about 12 large containers), then water-in to a depth of about 2 inches or so. -T

watching this bean plant entangle the corn and other nearby plants has been a fun thing to check each morning while sipping on the coffee and smoking some morning joints.

-

you probably noticed I made a bunch of cages for the back garden, they're about 2ft diameter. Very easy to make, only costed $65 for the whole roll! and only takes about 15 minutes to put 'em together. If anyone is interested in a tutorial style post I could put that together, it's not very complicated though.

I'll update more often here now that we're really in stride, going to foilar some Pure Protein 15-1-1 early tomorrow morning I think.
