Nutrients Waira Talks to the Doc with Rx Blend....

[Waira]

Awesome ! Eyes on the Livers Bx especially. Some great photos too. This Rx line organic?

hey the MissBC! ....... Looks like a round of mini-marvels this time, so not sure how well I'ma rep' that Livers - ,.... but the best part is coming up, she's the fastest by far!
Rx Blend is nearly totally organic, I'm forgetting what Matt said about this,... It's bloody close enough IMO! This "organic" qualification thing, it's kinda stupid frankly..

Thanks Damien!
....Hmmm, with all the other potential factors that could be behind this, it's difficult to make a call on that,... The amount going in isn't very much either, since I blend the King's Mix with Empire Builder, it holds water nearly 2x as long as straight KM (very nice stuff BTW Dam', if ever you want to roll in the dirt some! ... nice and light, fast drying, good for rapid cycling)-- and so I'm not watering as often... Plus I'm being careful with this unfamiliar nute line... Only 1 foliar spray done so far a few days ago, so that's out.... But who knows what sort of concentration is in Kelpful?
If anything the 4000K AutoCOB may have helped for sure with that color T, and a bit too close perhaps..... nights cooler than usual with the early start, mid 60's dips before the heater kicks on...

I'm trying to do outdoor gardening again this year. I didn't get a chance to add compost just fertilized with my hydro stuff every other week.

Sounds like a recipe for tight nodes - how convenient lol They look perfect though and the Creeper is on my radar lol. I'll become a master grower some day but I'm perfectly fine watching you.

Veggies and such?

I hope to become a Master grower someday too- ... a longer road than I certainly have traveled with growing da Ladiez!
Most of my plant experience has been with nurseries and species type orchids (damn I miss that job!),... carnivores, succulents as hobby plants I love the weird stuff, particularly in orchids! That place I worked at was incredible, 3 temperature regime greenhouses packed with species from all over
-- it's a wonder I got anything done! Good friends owned it, so that made it even better... Smoking fatties, walking around doing "crop assessment", aka eye humping the stock -

Keep an eye on that @St. Tom character, the man's habit is out of control- ..... One of his Zulu spear topped girls will be done pretty soon, and the bud is looking prime!
...don't watch me too closely, or you'll pick up some bad habits!

Yeah mainly veggies but aiming to improve the soil as well. I'll eventually get my farm so I'd like to get some agronomy under my belt. grew veggies indoors for a year but I'd prefer cool weather greens and herbs in hydro. High brix no till biodynamic gardening is my goal.

I want to expand to orchids and everything in between with an eventually culture lab lol. My wife already calls my grow room one. I want to work in the Horticulture industry in general but I wouldn't mind cannabis. What are temperature regime greenhouses?

Thanks for the tip. I'll pop in on Tom!

@BCBudlady our nutrient line is not 100% organic, some of the components use a small amount of ingredients that don’t qualify but some like Bio-Si do qualify for organic agriculture.

Look to be doing well!! If it’s good enough for Waira, fine by me! Thanks for responding.

Orchids are an addiction, be warned! Especially species types, if you have the fortune to see they at shows and specialty places where you can really inspect them... hard to do from online pics! Then you have to know your conditions and match that with viable candidates,... Some are very tolerant, others not in the least,... don't let the flower lust do all the talking! There were sooo many things I loved by would need a green/hothouse for,... but plenty of other insane, fascinating WTF looking flowers from various genera to satisfy!
.... I have a cool little Bulbophylum guttulatum blooming now in fact... note this Genera, it's massive in species count, and loaded with amazing cool freaky flowers that are pretty easy to grow. Many stink to high f*ck too, so keep that in mind! Road kill, poop, rancid WTF, porn theater (yup ),....It's flies they want, not nice bees- We had hanging rows with dozens of them going off at once, I mean headache inducing, cannot work in that greenhouse bad! But the flowers were stunning... Some of the night bloomers were also amazing to smell, a rare treat...
I post pics shortly,... Oh, the GH's temp regimes, what you'd expect: cool, intermediate and hot. Each had several microclimates in them, lots of hanging racks and walls too, I bet 33% of the stock could not grow in pots. I'll post a shot on one type that's like this...

 

[Waira]

Ok here it is, Blb. guttulatum; this arrangement is a common theme in this Genera, particularly with those from the Cirrhopetalum family ( not sure they are separate anymore?)....

>>> Trichoceros species, not sure yet, she's not bloomed like her mate Tricho. antennifer has... flowers are fly mimics! The males try to mate with the flower (pheromone attracted?), and end up with the plooen pack on them instead....off to the next flower and it's transfered! All orchids must use some pollinator to do this, no windborn pollen at all, it's in "gel packs" on stalks basically... the many mechanisms they deploy to do this though are diverse, some are can't make this up weird!
.............these are true scramblers over things in nature, and pointless to try and pot up...

>>> Tricho. antennifer, from better days (almost lost the whole plant to an fungal attack)

You're speaking my language but I'm a bit illiterate atm lol. My wife wants to build a night garden and I want carnivorous species as I have a special disdain for mosquitoes. I'm going to end up poor talking to you.

i just want it all lol. The orchids are creepy but alluring. Can't wait to jump into flowers. This is fascinating stuff though I really need to get rich and 40 acres. Smoke good weed to combat the stench and enjoy a mosquito free life. You have definitely expanded my view as I was considering African Violet but I think I need a lab instead. Tissue culture all the weirdness I come across for 'science'.

Love the orchids and love the plants .
