Summer itinerary.
Indoor grow.
2x4 test bloom of mother E-KnO mango
OB will come down in 2ish weeks 4x4 will get broke down and replaced with a 2x2.
4 clones in 1 gal pots will be bloomed in the 2x2 to test prehavest care treatments
Clone 1 and 2 we get my current feeding cycle 1 week sugar feed 1 week flush with plant 2 left under light up til havest 1 given 3 days of darkness #3 will get full nutes up til dark time #4 will get 2 weeks sugar no flush.
Outdoor
Current crop will continue to get tap/rain water, 50/50 mix will get some perlight and lime mixed in auto flower will be droped as each plant comes down last seed drop will be befor 9/10.
Germination site will slowly drop other strains of regular seeds i have (1 every3days or so) so i can practice sexing and clone. I plan to run fem seed and not have much need to clone to fit my goals but they are skills i have not developed that i need to have in my toolbelt.

E-KnO may be male in which case all those test runs will not happen and i will slowly be setting my room up for how i want it to run continiusly. 3 tents plant 1 fem seed every 3-5 weeks each lady will have her own tent from the time she is transpanted. Hopefully by christmass ill be on sechedule harvesting one plant an month.
3x3 will be for long blooming tivas to spread out super crop try for max yields. 2x4 is short so it will be short stocky bushy strains to LST. 2x2 for fast flowers, shorter vegg times smaller plants goal is super health high potency.
Squash is bullying its way to taking over the whole volenteer bed, but is begging for cal(fuck you i can see chunks of egg shell in the soil) tomatoes and vines coming in slow but deffently got some odd verieties. Peper sprout gonna get shaded and choked to death. No gourds on the melons yet but vines are already as long as i have ever gotten them. Cabbage will be harvested soon. Nursary maters are becoming monsters asking for K we soak banana peels to fix that. Banana peper has already produced and is gonna bllom like crazy though not putting on the growth they normaly do( first years grow over 6 foot)

Your veggies look great! I always struggled with peppers and tomatoes. They always seem to bruise on me. A friend of mine suggested CalMag to help. You do anything special to keep yours healthy?
I fortify my beds in the spring with 50/50 mix from the local nursery and till it in deep. The compost 1/2 is on point but they will sell it early if ask and your get volenteers come up. The top screen half is ok but we got a lot of gravel and clay here so it compacts a bit. Ill mix in some perlite next year. Water consistancy is important for full size mater. If they get flooded your have part of your fruit super ripen and if they dry out part of the fruit will stop ripening. For most of my life i only grew cherry and grape maters for this reason all my fruit was either half ripe half green or half ripe half rotten. We soak our banana peels in madon jars and feed it to whoever is showing deficency or is lagging behind in blooms. Thats about all i do for feed
The story behind the volenteer bed this year is. My 3 year old was diggin in the bed in march before i knew when i was gonna buy my 50/50 for the year. I said thats 1 inch of spent soil ontop of a bed of clay, Im fortifing that right now and emptied my compost been into it. Growing volenteers is a good "pheno hunt" the fact that they came up says they are the strogest of the population but the difficult infantcey often prevents them from doing well themselfs. You have to seperate them very early cut down the high ph of the compost give them lots of space, remove any competitors. I did not do that just kinda thined them out as they cam up.
Bonnies best nursary has done well for me most notably the banana pepers

Hey bro! Just wanted to let you know I did away with scraping the stem and just use the cuts, 3-4 of them, after a 20 minute or so soak in a solution of RO water and Peroxide. Flame sterilize your cutting tools also, just a quick pass with a torch does the trick. I'm playing around with making the cuts on the branch and letting it start to callus before cutting it off, nothing definitive yet but looks promising.
