Boomslang Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) First of, happy 420 to all you naughty gardeners. This is the my first diary for Dinafem, and hope one of many, and wish to thank Mark for letting me run this year. My selections are WWxxl auto and Blue Hash. Never grew them and I'm hoping they will do well at my latitude. Some will argue that it's a bit early to pop beans now but I couldn't resist, the weather was too good... So I've decided to put 1 Blue Hash (BH) in. I've put the bean in some sieved jaks magic in the first insh and at the bottom of the deep root trainer, I've put some jack's magic amended with 30% coco, a sprinkle of dolomite lime, 5% perlite and 10 % left over super soil from last year.

Boomslang Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Plot 1 is almost prepped (just have to weed a couple of holes). The prep started during the winter with a bit a weeding, added some FBB, coco and last month I dressed the holes with seaweed. Here it is bare. This is a shared plot. There's 2 large coco blocks that have beean dumped there for a couple of months by my partner in crime (middle top and middle right of the pic - draw a line and my section is the left side) I found a metal cotainer on the way to the plot which is perfect for extra water if they require any liquid feed/Seaweed and humic acid. This is the same plot taken last season with some sexy girls. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomslang Posted April 25, 2018 Author Share Posted April 25, 2018 (edited) No sign of any Blue hash surfacing yet... 3 WWxxl have been soaking in paper towel since last night. One has has been berried in soil this afternoon. Waiting on deleviray of other pots this afternoon. These are 3 liter pots. I will grow indoors under LED for 1 month ish, then I will put the pots straight into the prepped soil. I've drilled extra holes under the pot as there's only the usual amount that you would find in the classic pot. A grill would be perfect Mr manufacturer. This is inspired by the one and only @912GreenSkell. Hope it works as it should! T Edited April 25, 2018 by Boomslang 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is that they are now under LED as opposed to T5s and at 20/4 light schedule. Do you or anyone else know when they start flowering. I'm thinking 1 month? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomslang Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 The Blue Hash never showed it's head. Not blaming the seed but rather my compost. I added some garden compost to jacks magic. I don't normally but I needed to stretch it. A few other beans didn't make it (2 Serious 6, 1HSO Mango sapphire, 3 MOBs2 and possibly more...). On further inspection there were either nematodes, earthworm hatchlings or fungus gnats larvae in the vicinity of the soft rotting sprout. So I popped 1 more BH in but, I microwaved the compost, and added some Mycor Max (beneficial bacteria and fungi) to the mix to give some life back. Used the paper towel method this time. I've just read that neem oil diluted with water and soap is good at getting rid of them too. Just add to the soil after 2 days of drying out. Will try that on the others. Will update as soon as BH is out. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
