Anyone here try a wick system or any other drought relievers?
In my veggies I do 2 things.
1) Sometimes I take a gallon jug. Throw away the cap. Drill holes on sides and bottom and plant between peppers. When u water. Just full the jug and this reduces wasted water running off or evaporating on surface.
2) You could always fill a wine bottle or even larger glass bottle with water or even nutes and jam in the soil next to root ball for big plants. This is essentially an aqua globe. The plant only drinks water out of the bottle when thirsty. They should last days between refills.
Think 2) is a stupid idea since it will draw attention to the plant? Or good idea since the spot is hopefully hidden enough?

Never plant anything in the ground until at least the middle of April (May is better) in New England, as the ground will be too cold and wet for any decent root development. That's what my Mum taught me, and she was absolutely right. Start your plants on St. Paddies Day, Transplant 1 month later, and all will be good for your fall crop. Do not rush, it will be a waste

No rain, the ground was justa bout flooded. Made for easier digging..not that it is actually easy around here..rocks and roots mainly. Of the 6 I dug, went back and half were full to the top with water

I have a feminised DelaHaze from Paradise that is getting planted in April. It was a freebie from last year that I saved. Going in as soon as possible & gunna see what she does
And my final list of genetics for this summer is as follows
DelaHaze-Paradise
Purple Maroc-Femaleseeds
Red Purps-Femaleseeds
Early Skunk-Seedsman
And a handful of seeds I was gifted from my pops friend that lives out in Maine...way out there. Wondering if they're the infamous MotherOfBerries strain from maine? I can't contact the man and I didn't ask when gifted (supah medicated). All the seeds from Maine have stripes and are very plump, I have 20 or so.

what state u in?Fencing is a cheap, reliable option for keeping deer out of your crop. Repellants may not repel all pests and critters.
-> If fencing proves to be undo-able, might I also recommend Weiser Organics "Nature's Defense" it's an all purpose granular Animal Repellant that contains active ingredients similar to cayenne. Please message me if you're interested.
Also feel free to check out www.nhs-hydroponics.com to enter to win a massive prize package, we just opened our website and are excited to show what we have to offer

Myself.what breeder u use for that gum u got
This is my first run with these so idk how the end result will be. But she's growing like a true indica.
The mother just went into flower, so I'll know what it'll be before the clones go outside.
Here's momma bear

Some people have had success using water crystals in addition to organic materials that hold water and release it slowly over time. Good mulching helps too.
