Heavens Shores - Bill's 2022 Grow: Come Meet Howie! Show Us Your Grow Too - Bring A Pic

[ReservoirDog]

I'm just starting to try out the Bill284 Method myself, in the air-pots, man I wish I used the full bill284 method with the clear cups, and then my dumb self, wouldn't have to worry about the root balls falling apart before the DynoMyco, or even a picture could be taken! I feel like I'm not gonna be able to display the comparison as much as I'd like to and it worries me. I might just have to give it one last go with some clear cups, and Auto Runtz, or just go with the flow, and save the Runtz til after summer is over and I can clean out my tent, and start fresh.

i think you're doin a gr8 job, don't sweat it. Dont pop seeds you don't have space to grow out is a tough rule to follow sometimes, its all just so dang fun! Just grab a pic at up-pot and keep posting your grow, keep it real and keep hanging out with Bill. Really helpful stuff, I'm loving the dyno myself - honestly, you guys both inspired me to grab a bag. With it in my see-through breathable grow bags the root growth is properly nutso. The first root to travel 5 inches down and break out of the bag took only a week!?! Whaaaat? I know, right, crazy. Hadda plant it outside a little sooner than expected.

Good morning RD.
You haven't been posting too much lately, how have you been?
Everything ok?
With what happened last time I get concerned.
Hope your good Amigo.

Stay safe

Wow Bill, that's awesome!!!

 

[DYNOMYCO]

Correct me if I'm wrong @DYNOMYCO but my understanding is that myco needs to be in direct contact with the roots. Top dressing with Dynomyco, even if you bury it then add water, will not help unless it's touching the roots.

That's correct! Sunlight and heat will kill us! The best way of applying DYNOMYCO is mixing in the soil media or mixing in the planting hole and you need to have direct contact with the roots.

Mycelia in nature, it's true, cluster around the plants they symbiotically coexist with in higher concentration than elsewhere, however, it wouldn't be called the Wood-wide Web if it wasn't also a larger organism encompassing square miles of grasslands or forestlands. This organism-level mycelia is critical for the health of the smaller, tighter groups as a communication web but also for the same reason that we strive to constantly increase our microbe populations: die off. Many mycelial structures are interrupted for numerous natural reasons, events that are still quite likely to take place in your grow's container. For this reason, having as many sporules actively growing into hyphae within your container the better. They will be there to make sure that where a hole in the system is created, resources exist to patch it up with new mycelia. For this reason, you may wish to choose to mix, in a less concentrated amount than around a transplant's roots, your Dynamyco fully with mix when creating a new container or amending. You may also choose to keep supplementing these forces of 'good' throughout your grow, via small holes from the surface down at least an inch, the deeper the better, with a screwdriver or stick, and fill will Dynamyco, cover with matrix and water in. This keeps troops levels such that your plant's mycological resources that it's benefitted from and become so used to are never threatened with extinction by the cruel vagueries of horticulture - or horticulturists. Also, don't forget that that resource is still there after harvest for some time and can be transferred to other plants, or kept alive and in place indefinitely by cover crops as you prep for your next grow. I would still sprinkle every incoming transplant with Dynomyco and place some in the transplant hole, as with 'virgin' ground, but that container-wide population is a highly significant resource you've created, I'd do all I could to maintain it over time. My $.02 - whaddya think @DYNOMYCO ?

Thanks for your concern Bill. Yeah, I'm having a tough time, mostly physically healed but its left me with some strange mood and feelings instabilities that are likely to take more time yet. Feel like I've been fed on by a dopamine vampire, no drive, excitement, desire to accomplish new and interesting things. Such things practically defined my character in the past, so that heightens the sense of loss. Cancel the wake tho... I'm still here, still care, and still trying to grow the dank. Now I'm off for a 0530hr MRT scan. As long as I make it to the Timmy's drive thru first, all will be well. PS weather here is still farked. It rains every day, temps are low and sunshine way, way (way) down from normal. We don't survive 6 months of nonstop deluge out here just to go through another 6 but with higher temps.... do we? Saints preserve us...

Hope it goes well today my friend.
We here in northern Ontario are battling rain and cold.
But they are in the greenhouse.
Hopefully my solar light arrives soon.
I'm here if you need to talk.

Ohhh shiny but I thought you were doing soil? This is going to get interesting!

 

[LKABudMan]

I love diatomaceous earth. I sweep it into the concrete floor of my basement every month or two. It leaves a fine layer in the concrete and really cuts down on bugs down there. Also sprinkled around the tents, especially in back. Great stuff, especially if you can keep it dry. Just be careful breathing that stuff in and wear a mask!

What are you going to do with that coco? Do you have a special girl in mind?

You up potting her?

You up potting her?

Hey Jon
She went into flower already.
I'll have to throw her into an air pot.
I can't flower her in that cup.
I was hoping she would be bigger before she flipped.
Now I have to mix some flowering nutrients.
Hope your having a great day.
