Hope everyone's weekend is going well! Mine took a turn for the better id say, Cindy seems to be growing on the side that split so that's pretty cool! Not sure she'll make it through to harvest being so lanky so I plan to take some clones as Pjs suggested just in case...I am also going to try to install a ring around her for some support and see how that works. Still dont have a picture of her however, forgot my phone when I went into the jungle. She honestly looks like nothing even happened to her...quite impressive really.
On another note, I sifted the top 6-8 inches of my worm bin. Stuff looks pretty good I think! The picture shows some of the semi composted stuff that was deeper as opposed to the purely worked through top. Got a solid cubic foot out of it though!
Then mixed up the remainder left in the worm bin and added some homemade compost and old soil/herbs - all grown using the mix I've posted. I think the quality of the plant is only as good as the soil its grown in! Hope to have some quality stuff in 4 months or so. Ill continue to add the occasional banana peel, coffee grounds, and green manure from the garden/herbs. Kinda need to get another pot actually, maybe even 2. Old lady's gonna love that
Was quite the productive day! We were even able to get the last bit of soil mixed up, I shouldn't need to mix much of anything for another year or more...depending how much better the soil gets with time! Only made up about 25 gallons this time around, 15 of which went into this pot for either a Blue Dream or a Pineapple Express. Not set on that but thats where my minds at currently
. Soil recipe will follow, and all of you are in for a treat 
though its very hard to source, its worth the effort!
Its truly a very simple approach to gardening..and I encourage everyone to give it a try! Upfront costs are up there but it drizzles down to very little over time.
Especially when you buy in bulk, this neem cake should last me some years! It gets pretty cheap over a period of 10+ cycles!
Thanks for following along with me!

I'm just learning bout KNF so hope ya don't mind another visitor
I am too! Definitely don't mind a bit..let me know if you come across anything of interest or have any suggestions. It seems a pretty good way to "enhance" ones garden...for really cheap too! I probably won't be doing any fermented plant juices however, at least not for another year or so. I went with MOBT Sprout Tonic to cover that, kinda pricey but at least its done for me 
. Maybe in another couple weeks she'll thicken up those stems! Her last watering included silica to hopefully promote that.
Been crazy busy around here lately, havent had much time to scroll through the journals or even update here. Everything is still making good progress though so I can deal with it!
