testing NL5 bX1 & Bodacious from RedEyedGenetics in ORGANIC live soil
Thank you once again Clarance & Seedbay team for a safe & sound delivery of these beautiful test beans from Red Eyed Genetics! My first impression was the NL5 bX1 beans were smaller than average cannabis seeds, no problem just caught my attention, and the Bodacious beans were SO gorgeous & dark! Very healthy seeds, well done Red. I planted these up late with the Hunter's moon the 13th, and very quickly, sometime the 14th; the first NL5 bX1 (NL5 X (NL5 X White Lotus)) seed came up solo with a second itching behind, while Bodacious vigorously spring right into action! I come back from a run the same morning, and huh!? Again, later the same next day, what's going on here!?! Here is the majority before being transplanted into 4 inch pots, my flat FELL OVER and I nearly had an aneurysm, though the crimped little guy reaches up!! This is the first time I've seen such a small brute, Red Eyed resilience or something for the fucking win, woo. Was so glad only 2 were limped by the fall, but none were phased, just myself yelling at the flat for a sec! At the moment, there are 8 Bodacious up out of 10, and 6 NL5 bX1 out of 10. I checked the root riots of the Bodacious cubes and raw tails, so I'm sure they'll be up and with their fellow cohorts in no time at all!! Thank you everyone in advance for tuning and chiming in, and to Red for letting me test & report back; and Clarence! choom(0:

Thank you for stopping
by DJ, I'm always honored, it was threads like your side by side experiments I'd see as a pre-mag lurker soaking it all in.. it's a privilege to have you as a cohort here. The medium I use is created by a soil scientist out past Kamilche, I can't tell you the advanced microscience behind it, but costs 2k per yard tote though is reuseable. The live soil basically utilizes microlife, and everything you do/feed is for the microherd, not the plant. Doing things like pouring tons of mycorrhizal spores & feeding the rest of them fish the way they enjoy is all I have to do, and a little seacrop in veg. Just a cup of fish every week, nothing else. It's so fucking simple and I absolutely love it. I can't really describe it well in words but when I get a better picture/video medium I'd love to show it off, just it's texture gets me off I could sleep inside the tote I swear! Recently the batches have had issues with boron and other trace nutes as you will now see in my Karma journal earlier on, considering moving onto a different soil guy, though I don't have a degree in soil science so I just let the pros do it, but I'm looking into alternatives that are also organic; and doing a side by side of each to find what I enjoy best. I want to try new soil from this guy but mixed with other things just to see how they perform pot-size wise. Brother mikenite showed me mixing coco with his soil makes huge plants in smaller pot sizes, I've thought about that often ever since he showed me. I hope I've been helpful towards fulfilling your curiousity about organic live soil, the only thing thats uh, un-simple about it is all of the other products people are using cant go with my live medium and so I have to find alternatives that don't interfere with the diverse microherd in the medium. Thats basically the most thought and effort I have with this medium is being mindful of the herd. Herd LOVES my pond water by the way, holy shit. choom(0:

Oh holy shit..kind of dying laughing now
that my last entry here is mentioning my pond water....lmfao...ONE MORE THING! Here were a majority of the Bodacious before spontaneous death, about the next morning.. And here are the very few survivors of this.... Though originally pissed from this, I feel extra confident in the remaining that enjoyed what absolutely killed the others. I won't ever use my water on saplings from precious test stock from now on, though may employ this as some sort of early culling method to see out of a mass majority which saplings can be fed harder/earlier. Also notably is my favorite Bodacious sapling, which was stout compared to the 9 very long ones, happens to be one of the survivors. A sign? I intend on grabbing a bunch of Red Eyed Genetics whenever my funds are up and putting up a grow show of a 20-50 pheno hunt to make up for this, I feel as if I should for all of the generosity you've graced this community with, and Clarence for getting them out to everybody safe & sound with no fuss. choom(0:

Hello again everyone! Good & bad
news again, but not as bad since you get used to the big blow, the thing I appreciate the most about learning from experience is the bad isn't nearly as bad when/if it does happen again. Bodacious#7 & NL#4 died, the NL#1 labeled NL5bX lives and is now the only survivor of the failed test. The best I can hope for now is a fantastic male to hit onto the pacific northwest heirloom NL5. Above is the group before all but #1 died, with a closeup of the Bodie#7.. And below is how the lone survivor is doing as of yesterday everyone! This thread is going to be awfully slow now and I wouldn't even see it as a test anymore, but I will use this thread to document anything pertaining to if this plant is a male, the things created with it's pollen. I'll most likely create a brand-new thread when I replace my own test beans with more of a quantity run.. until then I'm still running a test for Karma Genetics, starting one for SG on his Khalisi Project, & at Hempfest I picked up a pack of Flowerchild @ Granddaddy Purple Genetics' booth. Stay mellow everyone out there IC!! choom(0:
