really that should be the quote... grow down low...3 yrs ago i started reading this thread from front to back, its something i continue to this day. without toms contribution to this thread i would have been lost...now its three years later and with a little help from a good neighbor, i have gotten to where we are at now...started with 2' deep 3' wide 25' long rows with a solid grape like trellis.
it grew great meds. the tposts in the front are three feet high in the first pic. it took alot of time $$$ and effort, but the only thing i kept was the trellis, just moved it up two feet higher. its all relative. i now have between 300-350 gal of soil per,in 4'x5'x2.5' boxes, and i was actually worried because we planted late just before july. but we had great starts and good hearts.
this is mid/late july
heres some 200gal smarts same time
heres the boxes mid/late aug
those are 8'+ bamboo poles
so when it comes to this thread i have learned from experience, you gotta drop the ego...stfu...and just read, participate, and learn as much as you can. sure we all tweak it a little our own way, but the last two pics show 4'x4'x2' boxes filled with toms basic soil recipe from the first pages of the thread. ive never been sorry i used it.
the plants are untopped one 4' diameter cage and branches are pulled through the cage early in veg accordingly. they naturally form the globe shape.i started at the 1# threshhold, now i think ill do a couple 4+'s...next year ill get in three weeks earlier first week of june, and i think ill have reached the "threshold" of my containers...
because of my legal issues i havent posted much in the last two yrs, as ive been paranoid as fk!...lol...but this here knowledge is what has helped see me through those very issues...
thanks so much to tom,tgold,vegnout,butte,phil,root, and anyone who i missed ,who actively or inactively contributes to the growth of this forum...and thank you to anyone who has the balls to sit here , debate,study,learn, and progress. regardless of where/who you are. thank you for helping us as tom said,"make oxygen"... respect folks... jdkronyk
