Hi everyone. I have gone away and thought about my life. Especially my grows but also the rest of me.
I have got my head around organic now and have got a little rotation going on that works for me at last. I have rebuilt my garden as the old one was not good enough.
I have had some amazing results in the greenhouse with the organic ways and my plants are seeming to get better as the soil gets cycled around and more and more mature...
I still use fishy water and organic amendments to re-charge the soil between grows (mainly types of poo!) and compost extracts to keep the organic life boosted to the max. I use different piles with different organic stuff in each depending on what I need. What you put in is what you get out!
Compost is essential and without great healthy working compost piles it won't work.. also myco and tricho and a good organic liquid feed to supplement the amendments, as you don't want to overdo those.
It takes loads of rotations to get your head around but it works for everything, so all my cactuses and veggies and citrus trees and soft fruit. Everything, really.
I am still learning, really but the results are getting such that I can start expressing myself with sativas again and get the desired results...
the only other thing - big pots = big plants, which is great for yields but comes with it's own set of situations... still, I don't like to restrict roots as I find it stresses out my plants (at least with my growing style, anyway...)
Happy growing all!!
This mango is nice and strong. Not a keeper but worth growing. Tasty enough - sickly sort of fruit behind some white pepper kind of thing. Not really POW or BOOM smells but nice. Put it this way - it won't be famed for it's floral traits but it gets me high and it is pleasant to smoke and has much less body than some Mango Haze I have grown in the past...also, it was a faster starter than the others. Also, the tops are still on the plant and the bottoms are dry and curing now (middles in the middle, I suppose!) They are like spades they are so big. They have all the resources of the plant to themselves now.. I will try to get a photo. It is a funny thing to behold and means plenty of smoke for me...always good.
If anybody has a nice mango keeper for me....
