St. Peter don't you call me, cause I can't Go... I sold my Soul to the Company Store.
I got in bed with the Seedsman and 30 other growers for a long overdue grudge match. It's a fight to the death, for 5 seeds, 2 packs of rolling papers, and ultimate bragging rights. No holds barred, no weight classes, no referees. And BYOB!
I'm already juicing up my dirt, getting that good stuff right into the muscle.
(Just kidding, we're all in this grow together!)
We're gonna use 2 different Dirt boxes:
1. Pro mix, simple bagged potting soil, perlite, gypsum, lime (just a pinch!), bone meal, blood meal, insect frass (thanks Bill!), fermented alfalfa, humic acid, EWC, river rocks, pine chips.
2. My outdoor garden soil, mushroom compost, perlite, some worms I found in the yard. (Pretty simple)
I put some spiced up seedling soil at the bottom of a small pot (1/3 of my blended mix +2/3 seed starter) and filled the top with a coco-based seed starting mix. Coco works better for my infants, I have less issues with mold and damping off. I want my seeds in a blank mix until there is a nice chubby tap root, too much nutrient load too early stunts my seedling growth.
After some online work, I purloined a set of Sponsor LEDs for the cheap cheap. I haven't monkey wrenched them into place, but their time to shine is just around the corner. My big box already has a fine lil lady staying for the summer, so it was time to upgrade the "Corporate Espionage" box for this grow.
Enough chatter. Let's Roll!
