Living Soil Organic Grow 75L

[Budgie]

That not so little baby is coming on great guns @DIY.Rik

I thought it was looking a bit dark leaved at one point, always hard to tell with pics but all still seems fine this end.

And your old lady let's you keep the worm bin next to your bed, she must a dream to live, with wanna swap?

Oh and full whack on my light. Or did I already say that?

Was that around end of week three of four? This time I kept mine dimmed, gradually increasing after week two, up to end of week four when they went full-blast and it worked a treat - did not stretch as much as before or suffer light stress.

Your grow is looking bang tidy mate!

Yeah it's the far red or something of the top of my head. I'm sure Richard from inv sun would give you a load of technical stuff. I am not that great with light or electrical tech....

About week 3 I think. I did it gradually, just not gradually enough lol.
Got too impatient I wandered what it would do and its incredible. The heat coming off it and light was immense. Felt like being under a sun bed when defoliating

I have terrible calcium deficiency here. Yellowing and rusty leaves everywhere.

So, I can't foliar feed. Mmmm I have already put a table spoon of gypsum on but that is more to load up the soil, also watering in some epsom salts just to push this grow out. I may top up with some bottled cal mag if it continues. That will be a last ditch effort though....
.....sooooo I decided to make some compost tea.



Half will get watered in to this 75L pot then the other half will go into my GHO biochar to help inoculation.
To inoculate properly you need to wet the char 1st. So I will do that then mix it with some castings and organic oats, which will build a mycelium layer.

This will all come up in a separate write up I've already started.

Avoid tea can do wanders in a situation like this.

I also have some other GHO goodies to throw at it later on.....
