Delta.9’s 2010 OD Collective grow

Hello my fellow Chronnoisseurs welcome to my 2010 grow thread.

Location: Santa Cruz Mountains.

Strains : White widow, Purple Diesel, Sour flower (ssh x ssh),Ice cream, Hindu Skunk, Blue dream, Super jack…and a few other strains my partner picked up. They are all in 2 gallon pots patiently waiting to be transplanted.

We are trying to put out 99 plants this season

We have 65+ holes dug…. I still have to dig a few more... most of the holes are 3’-5’ diameter and 18-24”deep. I dug a few monster 200+ gallon holes …. that should be interesting.
I also have 3 #65 smart pots , and one #100 smart pot.

Two of the #65 and the #100 smart pots are filled with:
6 parts Fox farm Ocean forest
1 part chunky perlite
1 part wiggle worm EWC.

The other #65 smart pot is filled with:
6 parts Black gold potting soil
1 part chunky perlite
1 part barefoot soil EWC

I am still contemplating on what I should add to the FFOF thats going in the holes. I want to keep the mix similar to whats in my smart pots but with added bone meal, blood meal , peat and dolomite lime….i just need to find out the right ratios.
Experienced FFOF growers please chime in ..

For nutes I am planning on running compost teas along with a 2 part organic nutrient, I have ran earth juice with good results before , but i am still undecided on what to get yet.

Ill take some pics tomorrow when I head out to the spot.

Feel free to pull up a chair , grab some and enjoy the show

peace

Lookin good D.9. I amended bag soil with 2.5lbs of Old Age Dry Gow per 100 gallons in smartpots. Other friends of mine use a product called Sunrise Mix which is very similar.

I look forward to the pics.

Nice line up and soil mixes. I love the Santa Cruz mountains and have many friends and family in the area. Great growing climate and lots of old school genetics still hidden in those hills. Have a great season and lets see some pics.

nice to see you guys here . Both of your grows huge were a huge inspiration for me going outdoors , thanks guys. Im planning on making 2 30 gal vortex compost tea brewers next weekend, they look awesome the whole bio-mimicry aspect of the vortex is awesome.

Hope you post a good tutorial on that. lots of pics. i haven't given a lot of thought to how and what i am going to brew. its almost time to tackle that.

im planning on scaling up this design , instead of the 5 gal water jug it willl be a ¿30gal? blue plastic drum with a 1" bulkhead fitting in the bottom.http://www.subtleenergies.com/ormus/tw/turbo-vortex.htm .

here are the pics i promised , as you can probably see there is still alot of work to be done.

my partner picked up a few Buddhas passion ( Urkle x Master Kush ) clones , sounds like a fantastic cross.

does anyone have experience with daze ? i heard it was a strawberry cough x bubble gum......

thanks for checking out my grow!

FFOF:Fox Farms Ocean Forest

delta: have you been to the big plant thread in the Tom Hill vendor forum?

 

[Delta.9]

nomaad: ...yes i have , I think thats the best thread here on icmag... so much knowledge contained in there.

plough: they are going to be split and moved out of the grow area, it will probably end up becoming firewood.

Nomaad:How did you water last year?

[Shcrews]

831 is holding it down this year.... we're probably working not too far from you. looking great man.


oh, and grow kush plz.

 

[nomaad]

Nomaad:How did you water last year?

By hand with a shite 1/3Hp pump. Sometimes by bucket because it was faster. With 18 plants, it was not such a big deal. This year, I am going to use the 50psi coming out of my well's pump house behind a fertilizer injector... still working out the finer details. Adjusting pH is going to be tricky.
