Hey guys, since RIU is such a bitch website and can easily be hacked apparently, my entire thread was deleted in the memory loss so I thought I'd start a new one (was really considering swapping sites... ). Anyways, let me just catch up in one big post lol. To start with, I'm running Plushberry and Vortex in Subcool's Super Soil (slightly different formula though, see below). I don't think I will be feeding more than what's in the soil other than molasses when it begins to flower, or some hygrozyme; but we'll see as the summer progresses. I mixed the soil in the first week of March, so it will be done cooking in a few more weeks. Here is what went into my soil that is cooking and will go into the bottom of my holes:
6 bags of 1.5 cu ft Roots Organic Soil
~35 lbs of Local Organic Earth Worm Castings
5 lbs Archipelago Bat Guano 0-7-0
5 lbs Blood Meal 12-0-0
4 lbs Steamed Fish Bone Meal 9-6-1
1 container (4 oz) Myco Madness (9.5% powdered humic acid) - This is my revision, couldn't find powdered humic acid
2/3 cup Epsom Salts
1 cup Dolomite Lime
I ordered some Azomite online and will be here this week, will add 1/3 cup
And here's a picture of a poppy that I saw while mixing the soil hehehe
And then about two weeks ago, my seed order came in from the Attitude. Here's my order
I then tried to germinate the seeds in these little biodegradable cups in a tupperware to keep in moisture and warmth like I did last year. I had 7 total, 3 Plushberry, 3 Vortex, and 1 Reserva Privada OG #18. I germinated these two weeks ago, however only 1 PB and 1 Vortex came up. They're both growing at a steady rate, but I'm disappointed the others haven't come up. They're still sitting in my closet right next to the heat vent in my hopes that they will come up just as late seedlings. About an hour ago I put my remaining 2 Plushberry and 2 Vortex in a tupperware with paper towels that are slightly moist. Anyways here's some pics of my original germination attempt, and of the Vortex right after it sprouted up. I will be updating with new pictures and any progress with the new seeds in a little bit. The beginning of the outdoor season is a slow and boring process, but I love watching the trees and perennials come back to life with the light and warmth approaching. If it weren't for allergies this would probably be my favorite time of year
