Garden visit today.
Had some free time, returned home, and the weather is wonderful (though a few people around...)
Loaded up the bag with about 2.5 L of mix. I used my veg hydroponic mix, it's at NPK 5-11-26, plus micros.
It's been clear here for about 6 days when I was out, and no rain at all.
I mixed it up to about 900 PPM on my cheap PPM / Temp meter.
The mix doesn't have much Ca, but the egg shells I dug in, plus the chicken shit fert do have high Ca and Mg.
They were all fine, the ground here was well soaked, and they are near the river.
It's a very good spot really.
Enough talk, we want photos:
Group 1:
One of the younger Safaris. Looks like her mother a lot.
Top bud just about 30cm tall, a couple of little lower buds, but really just one main cola.
She's a bit yellow at the bottom (also like her mother),
but the fertilizer I gave her today will help a lot.
And unlike her mother, she's not facing rain every day and extreme humidity.
This one is the older but very small auto (I think),
which topped itself, so has two tops.
Very smalle plant, just starting to flower as you can see.
Group 2:
After I pulled the second male from here, just this lady left by herself.
She's a lot like the one above, and like her mother.
One straight single bud. A bit greener than her sister.
Group 3:
The older Safari lady, who had slightly crinkly leaves last week.
That seems to by largely gone. So I'm guessing it was a humidity thing.
She's got about 3 or 4 tops, which are starting to fill out a little.
I think her stretch is almost ended. So, she's not very big, a tiny bush.
Her leaves are a little thinner, and not super fast like her other older sister (below).
This is a little younger Safari that was next to her.
The one which leaf growth which looks more like post-bloom reg,
single and three bladed leaves.
But, the one above is largely blocking her light....
And another one blocked by the older Safari lady above.
Really just starting flowering now.
This may be one of the autos.
Group 4:
This was the site where the older fast male was pulled.
So it's down to just one older Safari, and another younger plant.
First, the younger plant, which is blocked by the older one for light.
The older Safari is a very fast bloomer.
No more white pistils at all, for maybe a week.
In my bag also prepared a brown paper bag and box cutter knife.
She came down today, and is now drying.
More photos below....
Love and hugs,
