Got my hole prepped, 2'w x 2'd with 80 lbs of composted cow shit and humus on a southern exposed bank. The clone is from a plant I call 'Incredible Hulk'. I'm keeping it inside under 24/0 till june 1st

I would recommend making that hole 3 1/2 ft wide and 3 ft deep, lined with at least two layers of black landscaping plastic with 1/4 inch holes in it (for gofers etc.) and a layer of thick wire mesh in between..... you will be very glad you did, and make sure to add perlite, vermiculite, micro enzymes, and oyster shells to that mix, your plants will love that. Soak the shit out of the cow manure and humus as you mix it (mix it like a hundred times until your arms are dead!), then add the other ingredients. You might have to/want to buy a bag of soil that already has beneficial micro enzymes in it. And when you put the soil in the ground, it wouldn't hurt to add some fish emulsion either, ;).

wat up 04? man you've really perfected the "monster grow", I'm def. gonna try using the fish for mine, although
I know from reading this thread that u said you let urs set for 3 mo after u put the fish in so my question is will it still work if u add the fish a week or so before putting the plants in the ground on top? I love this site, I've read hightimes since I was 12 (31 now) and loved looking at their pics, but this site is soooo much better cause you can actually conversate w/ people like u who have been there and done that! If mine end up half the size of urs I'll probly cream my jeans! LOL One other quick Q, how do u "force ur plants to become hermies? cause I'd like to try to feminize some seeds myself. Great job man, can't wait to see the roo grow! LOL

you can put the fish in and then plant,i like to let the fish start its journey in to decay before i plant that is all,
you plant will get the use of the fish a bit later in its life no probs.
there is a lot of good info on the net for feminizing seeds .google, read and read some more.
it is just to much to discuss here....:-)

i dont see the point of the plastic if you wire mesh! the plastic would just cause a barrier for the roots to get root bound.... with just the wire mesh it would let your roots gain there strength and stretch further to the point that the gophers wouldnt even effect them really... im using 1/2 inch wire mesh in my holes and i also gassed the shit out of every gopher hole i could find!!!!! my father n law works for the county so i was able to get my hands on some POTENT gas bombs!!!!!!

metal rusts buddy. rust kills roots. Gofers come back, get some snakes. AND, roots wouldn't grow as well in the native soil anyways.... you simply line the wire mesh on both sides with 1ml black plastic and poke holes through the plastic in the cross hairs of the mesh. Thus allowing the whole r area to breathe (both air and water) and allowing the roots to pass through if the wish. Your roots probably stop at your wire mesh.

Hey 04, thought I'd run this by u and see what u thought. I was telling the wife about the fish thing and everything last night and tonite she happened to be cooking salmon patties and was like "you wanna keep the scraps from this":idea: So' I'm gonna try to use some canned salmon for my fish soup, along w' some banana and apple peel. Cause I read that banana peel is supposed to help too. Anyway let me know what u think. Can't wait for ur next update!
