Hello mendo,

At the risk of being rude...what are the list of admendments you used this year?

Do you till the soil or just top dress?

How long for cooking are you going to use?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I change it up based on my soil needs.
Good soil testing with help guide you in this process.
I spent 4k on soil testing this year.

Just make sure your amending with N,P,K micro and macro amendments and some compost.
Their are lots of soil mixes around.


Mixing pots is where work gets hard.
How many pots do you think you could do in a day?
I was lazy doing 7 per day.

I've thought about a no till garden.
The soil is so depleted of nutrients I just dont think I can get it back in line with just top dressing.
I till the entire pot. It takes about 45min to do each 800.

Soil needs a few weeks to break down the amendments. I like 4 weeks or more before planting. 2 weeks it would have cooled down enough to plant.

Ill get more soil tests done in May.

I know your a busy man. But you think you could post up some pics of the vegging Super Skunks and Afghani#1's ? Especially the Afghani. Wanna see if the new stock look anything like the selected cuts I used to run a couple decades back.

Yea ill get some up. I've been keeping my eye on them. I'm as excited as your about them!

I did have some problems with the seeds. I had some damping off issues and lost quite a few.
I'm going to try to get more seeds for next year. I have a few for this season lets hope i get some keepers!

I'm very excited about some other strains like GSC x Blue Dream S1's . Going to be some MONSTER plants!
