im hopeing that's not a dog log next to your plant lol
ha I thought that also but its a piece of a tree limb lol..the last of the plants are sexing out and there hasn't been any more males for a few days so most likely the rest will be female i'll see within the next week what they do and then plant in the big holes .

Hey Getaway! Glad to see the sun shining on your side of the hill!!

I thought i posted this ? Before, Guess it didnt post :(

I am thinking of using hay also to cover my holes but Im worried when i hand feed once a week the hay will leach up the nutes... Are you hamd feeding at all or just water?? Just wondering if you thought about this too.

Looking good over there! Cant wait to see those girls grow!

the hay will break down more by bacteria, water, and the sun... and release Humic Acid as it does, which is good for the plants ;)

well we move the straw hay aside and water from our hose set up coming from our 3000 gallon tank that feeds a couple trash cans that we mix nutes when feeding and just water in between030.jpg026.jpg027.jpg

thats interesting I was thinking of using it but was afraid of it causing mold.
shouldnt need to worry about it if you dont lay it on too thick. I dont typically recommend using it, or say people need it, unless air is wicking too much moisture from the soil and causing it to dry too quickly. It does help with water retention on larger plants, and of course the other benefits listed in the article I posted. a layer about 1/2" thick (and not matted, more just kind of layed out, with gaps between) is all you should really need, and you should always leave a root "crown" space right around the stalk, for healthy gas exchanges.

I thought about it but iv'e been checking it everyday and the dirt stays wet and cooler than without it and I only litely cover the dirt so I still can breath but not dry out too fast straw hay is better than grass hay I believe its bigger and airy so that helps also and it's not like mulch
