Voodoo Girl is now 15 days from seed. Took these about 6 am, sun is up north side of cabin, 4 more hours and it will be streaming in window for a little more than 8 hours, 25w LED 16/8. Bottom pic shows 90% shade cloth shielding our living space.

Looking really healthy quick question is that straw in the pot

hey Bailey, mulch is old compost and yes straw is one of the ingredients, besides conserving moisture it provides some nutes over the grow, and it encourages the plant to grow small feeder roots at the soil surface under the mulch, at end of grow there will be thick mat, to feed a little pull back mulch add nutes to soil surface stirr very shallow cover back up and water through mulch

Nice idea I'm subbed in so cant wait to see how she grows I might do that myself I'd imagine it helps to aerate the compost also

the compost is loose and course, self aerating, lol, the fines fall to soil surface and are digested by soil bacteria and sucked up by roots

Aw soz I thought it was all through the soil

 

[trailanimal]

I mix the very fine broken down finished compost into soil, the course stuff use for mulch

Voodoo Girl in the afternoon sun. Just feed her 1 tbs 8-4-1 guano and a couple handfuls worm castings. Bailey, you were asking about compost mulch; after I fed and watered I pulled mulch from stem, had a youngster rot off in greenhouse heat, cautious now.
