Can you freeking believe it? Spring is close and summer will be here before ya know it!
I took the clear weather opportunity to prep my main outdoor grow site on the hill.
I dug about a 5 gallons of soil out of a 30 gallon dirt locker (planter on our hillside), dug in a medium sized bag of perlite + Mykos and humic acid deep into the pit, added some soil back and topped that with a decent amount of pumice and mykos, then filled the pit up with coco-canna soil (similar to coco loco but different mfg).
we have a 24 to 36 hour atmospheric river on the way so mother nature is going to water in all the nutrients for me.
As soon as this upcoming storm is done, things are supposed to get into the mid-upper 70s (it’ll be 80s) for a while. I’m hoping a good 3 month cook is going to make the plant happy when we get growing (late may or early june). Last year I started in late april and that was too early (plants were way too big for my preparation).
Planning only 2 plants this year.
1 - in the newly prepared location I’ll be planting a Maui Wowie.
2 - in a 2 gallon cloth planter I’ll be planting something called “The Gift”, it’s a CBD specific sativa that is related to something better known as Ringo’s Gift.
As a fallback, should one of those not thrive, I’ll be planting something called China White. It‘s a seed pulled from a dispensary purchased 1/2 oz. I grew it once and loved it, but I think I could do better now.
Fingers crossed for the summer outdoor grow!
I’m looking forward to reading other grows so I can be jealous of what you’re all growing!
