OK, a coupla things.......I'm plenty medicated so bear with me.......LOL. A mini smoke report; On the summer run I had this one plant....well, I could not identify it. I didn't even have any genetics out there that any relative ever remotely resembled. This plant got stuck in the ground later than most of the rest and only got like 5 and a half feet tall. It looked sativa dominant and I didn't top it so it looked like a small Christmas tree....so to the point.....I just burned some with like a sixty day or almost cure and it kicks ass, tastes like fruity and is so smooth...... told ya I was loaded. SOIL for 2014 outdoor season. A special thanks to my friends who so graciously helped me with my soil design, If you're slinkin around; Thank you very much!
OK, I got the holes dug...what af'n job! I made seven holes, that measure 36" round, and 16" deep. The top 12 inches is much like a clay/sand mixture that is very hard. I live in an ancient flood plain, and that's where the strata is at this point in time. The bottom 6" is like sandy pea gravel and drains like magic. These holes are 6' apart on center. They are located in an area that gets 6-8 hours of full sun a day, which should be enough light given the intensity of the sun at my location...combined with the fact that the air here is very clear and clean. The soil will be a combination of; soil base...from a local nursery, horse manure- composted for years, humus mix...which I'm not quite sure what that consists of yet, and bat guano.....high N. When I get the stuff made I'll try to get more specific with the amounts. I mean it's a soil that has a description as much as a recipe....how to make it and what to look for when getting the correct texture and pH. I'm also gonna throw a good amount of perlite in. This will be an auto watered rig at least...possibly auto fed, I'm looking at injectors........if it happens it will be a diy setup...low cost. That's all for now, I'm interested to see what you folks think of my plan.....I value your feedback.....really!
