Aloha Shecky, keep in touch...all the best man!

@Hiloreign, congrats on getting land! Albizias are amazing invasives, I've killed thousands. They do fix nitrogen, but spread and canopy out way too fast. If they aren't that big, chainsaw them down and poison the stump. It will make alot of green waste, but keep chopping it up. Be ready for the seed bank underneath those trees to germ. You can also just girdle them and let the wind blow them down over time. Kinda dangerous.

Strawberry Guava is a bitch. Can basil bark with diesel, cut and spray, or treat the soil. I personally would chainsaw it out and poison the stumps.

Aloha Punatic, hope your health is great, thanks for being here
....

Thank you! Many people I've talked to recommend chainsawing/spraying. Also, I'll need all the green matter I can get! Do you have any recommendations as far as types of spray to use? I'd like as much as possible to keep it organic/safe.

I'm super stoked to finally be able to feed as much people as I can with the most nutrient-dense food I can produce.

Good to see you around!

EDIT: Also to be able to grow the sweetest cheeba I can manage

Hey guys, I remember a few pages back u guys were talking about aloe used as foliar spray. Could u guys dive a little deeper on that subject. Shoots, aloha

Amino Acid

"Aloe Vera contains the following Amino Acids: Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Valine, And Tryptophan, Alanine, Arginine, Asparagine, Cysteine, Glutamic Acid, Glycine, Histidine, Proline, Serine, Tyrosine, Glutamine, And Aspartic Acid.

Enzymes

Those include the following: Amylase, Bradykinase, Catalase, Cellulase, Lipase, Oxidase, Alkaline Phosphatase, Proteolytiase, Creatine Phosphokinase and Carboxypeptidase.

Micro & Micro Nutrients

These include Vitamins A, C, E and B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 in addition to Choline, Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Magnanese, Chromium, Selenium, Copper, Iorn, Potassium, Phosphorus and Sodium.

Lingnins & Polysaccharides

They include: Galactose, Xylose, Arabinose, Acetylated Mannose And Acemannan.

And of course there's the Salicylic acid compound and its associated benefits as far as root development. Adding 1/4 cup of Aloe Vera juice/extract/whatever term you want to use to 1 gallon of water and use that to wet your rooting medium - even Grodan Rockwool cubes - will give you root size and development that is nothing short of amazing. Or at least in my experience. "

Quoting "CC" from eyeCmag.

I now grow my own aloe and haven't noticed anything but good results when I foliar/soil drench. Nor have I been able to notice any ill-effect when using stronger concentrations (went up to ~1/2 cup/gal fresh aloe, I just squeez 'em...). Water penetrates the soil much better when I drench, they handle hot and dry weather much better when I do both and if you have any plants drooping because of lack of water/too hot/etc. aloe will perk them up in no time at all. I also use aloe as a clone "dipping agent"... soak your clone medium in diluted aloe water... big healthy roots.

Aloe has a good saponin content, proving useful as a surfactant when applying foliars...

I learned the aloe tech from spliffandmylady. I usually fillet up a fat leaf of it and throw it in my watering can or if im lazy I just roughly chop it up and throw it in.
I dont think the ratio is that critical, and your plant leaves will all point up to the light shortly after applying guaranteed.

Its also great at making cuts heal faster and leaves less of a scar. I put a fillet over the wound and cover it with a bandage and it heals super quick.

Great for sunburn too

Ace of Spades #6 is almost ready:




The clones are already flowering:

Aloe foilar spray ='s happy plants. I think the recipe was 2 tbs per gallon but you can go up to a fourth cup..Like Kalo said it's hard to overdue it with just Aloe. Once you start adding silica/tm7 you need to start being more precise about your measurements. I recommend reading the reading up on Recycled Organic Living Soil(ROLS) over and over again until you understand it. Took me a couple reads

Haha I'm lazy like Coot I just squeeze them.

Jamaican x Aruba... grown via Probiotic/ROLS



Mo touching this plant is like getting cedar sap on your hand. Like a Bangladesh air freshener!

That rols thread rocks. Thanks Braddah spliff. Very useful info there. Here's a couple night shoes of some phatty fruit and kali mist I got going now. 3.5 weeks into flower. Shoots. Enjoy

everything looks great guys, love dat kali mist she looks a bit indica tho! shame!

U are correct grass. That there is a picture if phatty fruit by Barney farms. I will try upload some close ups of the kali. She's got a real sativa look to her. U think week 4 of flower is a little bit too late to transplant. The kali mist took off real fast. She grew about 3' since thrown outside. Shoots. Alojahz

Here u go grass, some kali mist about 4 weeks outside. Looks like she's gonna be a ten weeker compared to the phatty fruit. Also, anyone here ever try running anything from house and garden. Plants seem to love this stuff. Within 5 minutes of water/feed, leaves started reaching straight for the sun, even now when stay cloudy outside. Anyways, here's kali

Here is all that is left in the North Garden:






The clones are really beefing up:

Can anyone offer some tips on revegging?

Long story short: I mislabeled clones and thought I wouldnt keep the strain due to it being mold susceptible but after sharing some finished product with friends, I think the verdict is keeper. I have a couple clones flowering indoor right now, pretty far along...do I attempt to clone a lower branch or just harvest 90% and switch to 18/6?

it wont be easy and is strain specific, but harvesting the top and putting back into veg is probably your best bet. use 24 hours veg light if you can, it will move it along faster. also use something higher in Nitrogen when you start feeding again. good luck bro
