so get this...mere seconds after my last post i went to dissect the bud i chopped off myster-Z and lo and behold i find the source of the caterpillar poop....fucking caterpillar hanging out on the stem and shit like the one in the picture a few posts up. fucking c***apiller.
anyway i was watering my veg cab and happened to have my phone so i took a couple pics.
first back in time to first week of august according to what i wrote in this book. some of my WTPF's came up and i had 4 other seedlings already 2-(GMxMF1K)gmf1k and 2- (Sashaf3#b x MF1K)sw16 that were like a week along.
fast forward to today and
they're limping along and finally starting to recover from...i dunno what. could be these gnats. shit load of baby fliers about, could be this mushroom compost i used or the topsoil or maybe both are suspect. i see a lot of white/salt buildup on the media when it dries and i haven't even fed these yet anything but water. but after about the first 5 days or so they all just started to get yellow and stop like nitrogen def. even before the cotyledons started to turn yellow on a couple. and these runty leaves and twisted mutated leaves on one. they all just stayed short little runt plants and some stretched. gotta be a lockout.
something about this florida soil...or something about buying soil in florida? seems like it's all coming from the same crapheap. i haven't tried any miracle gro brand organics or like one more fancy brand for $9 at home depot, but all the other soil i've seen down here, many different brands, at various stores. i poke a bag or look at a torn bag and it's all the same. barky and sandy shit soil, the "composted manure" is fucking half sand, even the BlackKow expensive used to be the best shit is slightly better quality than the 1.28 "manure" bag at home depot. these wood chips and shit is a combination of topsoil and "mushroom compost" the topsoil was actually good. imma stick with using that, the mushroom compost however was mostly bark and shit, which appears to be soaked in salts... i wish i had a meter i coulda solved this ages ago, and the manure all fucking seem to come from the same shitty distribution center. like there's a ..."soil farmer?" for this region and he just supplies all these name brands so they can save money on shipping tons of dirt and cow shit cross country.
/rant off
i'm gonna have to make up something with coco as the base i can't deal with all this rocky barky bullshit soil goddamn wtf. the soil back in the midwest was always top notch even the $1.25 a bag stuff i based my original recipe around.
/rant truly off.
my clone tray this time around i filtered out as much of the rocks and barks and shit out with my fingers as i could before i planted in it. got roots on most of em. a few i'm still not certain about. shit got really compacted. i pushed the cell out with the bubba to see if roots yet. no roots but the soil came out in one nice solid block like a lump of clay. ugh. but anyway roots on most. columns go left to right and rows are up and down. bottom row is the single bubba cut that's still not dried out and dead yet. the RGM#1 in the middle or the next row up rather 2x of those made it. next one up is my sashaf3#a and top row is the 5G#3 all 6 of those are still alive and or rooted.
give em a week or two more to be certain before i transplant anything.
got this insurance cup with another tiny bubba cut and a sf3#a with root nubs sitting in some water. the bubba still no roots but still alivelike so still hope.
my revegs are doing fantastic wonderful even such quick turn around time, i'll be able to take cuts on everything in a week if i liked. but imma sit on those for a while and just mom em out. only things i have plans on running again in the near future are my sasha#b and the 5G#2 gonna see if i can blow those up. first run was small single cola plants.
anyway til next time.
don't ask me what all that bullshit is growing on the pots...fucking weeds...i dunno i use em for cover crop so the pots don't dry too fast and the sand i top dressed/mulch with doesn't get hydrophobic.
