Indoor Zaaboot has gone to pot 2022 auto spree

[Zaaboot]

After 24hrs of drying the tent back to its normal environment and giving everything a good drowning (sounds very counter intuitive - to drown something that has already been drowned) everything in Velokelp foliar this fine and sunny morning shows no ills or nasty thrills


all are Sawney’s which are doing grand - the odd one out runt is not - normally anything behaving stupidly would get pulled but I have just cracked open my last small grove bag of La Rica so I need more CBD in my stash. She will snap out of it, just annoying looking at her, she is like a leper at Milan fashion week….

last sealed bag opened - poo bums its my favorite

Been in there since the beginning if December, heat sealed - the aroma that penetrated the house when I ripped it open was utterly butterly and the terps and overall state of the bed is excellent

For those of you at the right age you know

—— and tonight Matthew - I will be Singgy the Tent cleaner ——//

Far too messy in there for my brain to cope

have a pleasant day all

Hello all - trials and tribulations of soil

I just spotted this in the living soil bag - any ideas?

And the bigger question - how to do it without bottles or chemicals - once again, answers on a postcard to BBC center, or just here will be fine

thanks all

Quick update since the flood - nothing has died - the temps and RH are in the happy zone and the blumats seem to be working.

Bit silly, it grew in to its germing home which is basically worm castings, I will move her into a 25ltr airport in a day or two of clover multi purpose.

Coming on nicely - spent ages yesterday and today cleaning up leaves, I removed hundreds, to little avail - but my mission to allow airflow worked so good enough for me

All - top right SBAK1, bottom right CDLCxFS and the other is SBAK2

SBAK1 same age as her sister but well ahead - only a couple more weeks I hope, otherwise she has to wait five weeks…

A super cropped branch

SBAK2 - she will be big - simple as that Very easy - no hassle from day 1

And the runt is all grown up now - CDLCxFS

Adios my lovelies

I think it is day 64, if not it maybe another day - just not sure which, I can't get to the labels - but its there or there abouts.

So last time, I had just finished the billionth round of defoliation, I had expected that would be the last, but alas, this morning I walked into a veritable jungle!

Top right - SBAK 1, bottom left SBAK 2 - same age
Bottom right - CDLCxFS is 9 days older than the other two.

Its a real bloody ess in there, so that will be chores for today in this tent.

SBAK1 - just waiting to fatten up, some lovely long colas, that have met all the way up the branches, but she is still skinny - lovely smell coming from her - ultimately it is a kushy smell with some lovely background of fresh fruits - the likes of papaya, and guava...

SBAK2 - very much different to her sister - she is miles behind, initially I had assumed that it was due to the LST which tends to add a few days, but it is clear she is just a totally different pheno.

The CDLCxFS has come to life, she is stretching like a bamboo, she will end up being the tallest here, but spacde is a bti of a bugger, height is not an issue so super cropping will just but them in the eay of others so I shall just leave it for now.

Temps: 25 pretty flat 24/7
Res temp: 22
RH: 45-60%
E.C 2.4 - this is 50/50 RO and tap water, A&B bloom, PK 9-18 and a nicer dose of calmag

All present and correct
Take call all

Edit to add - the BUDbox sucks donkey balls, it is undoubtedly the crappiest flimsiest, least light proof tent I have ever used - as soon as this crop is done, I will swap it out back to my trusted and true SecretJardin DR's - the Sawney temt is a DR and it just reminded me of their quality - that snippet was hosted by Esther Ranson

After a little clean up of my outdoor garden, I am back for round 2!
I shall digress a touch - so, I have a handful of strawberry varieties - just cleaned those all up ready for action, three types of blueberry - a good old seeing too, they should produce loads this year - there is a white, a pink and the regular - I have also been prepping my graveyard (thats the name for the rectangle I decided to cut out of the lawn last year and prep for vegetables, I also grew the grass all year without cutting it, and then cut it and left it all in the garage in a bale and now it sits nicely above the graveyard mulching away nicely - the soil itself is made up of everything, my old coco and clay pebbles, old leaf trim, egg shells, pretty much everything - in there I will grow, aubergines, onions, peas, and I expect some beans, dotted around there will be pots of various types of Chilli. And finally, I will try something new this year as I prep for life in the wilderness - I will grow all my tomatoes on a hay bale - once sprouted I will throw them on the hay bale, water it once and leave it from there. Its all ready now - once the big orange ball hangs around for a few days I will put some photos up.

Anyway, back to the story at hand - SAWNEYS BEANS - recap - first time in soil, no idea what I am doing, seeds popped easily which for me was a feat of undeniable excellence (I should have just taken seeds out of the packet and thrown them in the bin - I was rubbish at germing), set up a totally new tent for these beans, blumats and so on.
So far, we have had one flood, and one runt (which was not a Sawney) and a new plant added - Gorilla Glue 4 from Barneys - this went in to an unknown sized airpot yesterday.

They have just doused in Velokelp as their morning wake up juice - hence they look abit waterlogged - I will update later to show how the world looks better using that smelly spray.

I think they look great, nowhere near as fast as the others I have been following on here that I have seen but I dont mind, once dialled in the second run will be clockwork (or so they say). Anyhow, this run is basically 100% user error - the user being the only non-electrically controllable element in the grow...

NUGZ2 - well what can I say, these little lovelies make me look like I know exactly what I am doing! Nice structure, good side branching which is reaching up fast so will end up with a nice bush with multiple heads as standard, no blotches and nice pace of growth - I have to do my best not to top and twist and tie...that said there are two of them, so one is likley to get abused and the other untouched other than defoliation.

Then we go on to the Slaughtered Lamb - there are four of them in here in various sized pots, I want to run to mammoths, and the other two will be a lot more controlled due to root space.
Overall, not huge variance between them from what I can see, but it is still early days, they are growing strong, nice colouration at this stage with nothing to report - except for the lass in the living soil - I have been reading a lot about this and I must assume that the nutrients become better available throughout the grow and the sol will continue to improve over time, so let's keep an eye on that one.

The blumats seem to be working, I say that based only on that fact it has not leaked yet.

GorillaGlue - went in to her final pot yesterday, I have no clue what size pot it is - but as you an see it is a airpot, I used this in the other tent with coco and pebbles and it was fine - no different then regular pots or bags...TBB I still think my heavily drilled plastic pots give me the best rootmat post harvest.

I will take the bottom bag off when the soil has settled otherwise it quickly becomes messy.

EDIT - Forgot there is a predator in there too - this oe is also high up on my favorite so far - as with teh NUGZ - doing her thing stealthily and healthily.

Cheers all - have a good day
Arrivederci

Hello you lovelies

the tent full of Slaughtered Lambs m, Nugz and predators is steaming along.
fingers crossed I think the blumats are now sorted….I cleaned them all up a tad and reset them a couple of days back - had a look this morning and whilst there one of the droppers started ran for a bit then stopped, then two other started dripping slowly and continued to do so. Ultimately if it works I can go away for three weeks without flying back to water plants.

@hope2grow you are going to love those NugZ - they are so easy, haven’t touched them - healthy and lots and lots is nice long ready to carry bud side branching

Some cover crop starting to show

ta ta for now

Hey Hey - back once again - so just went out for a doobie and checked on the other tent - damn, they will not stop - the Two SBAK's are both solid looking plants, had a good start, a bit of calmag def to start but have been flying since that was addressed.

The CDLCxFS from Meph was the runt of the litter and many a time she was lightly brushed by the grim reaper, she has pulled through and now she is the tallest in the tent, a touch spindly and lanky, but she forming up nicely, her bud sites alternate up the stem which I like as it wil lend itself to filling the whole branch. She is currently at day 54ish

Then on tho the SBAK - all I have to say is, I like these ladies a lot. Aggressive growth throughout the grow, and I cant get over the amount of defoliation I have been doing, and the next day it is back to square one, strong plants.
There are two distinct Phenos in here, one is nearly ripe, the other is just starting.
SBAK1 is not miles away, she is just stuffing her face and fattening up, I do expect her to get fat before she sings her chorus of ripeness.
And today, I can happily say the sugar has been sprinkled lightly and more to come
