first of all wow, your plants are beautiful.
and I thank you very much for your advice, so I will fatten them well. I was afraid to do it because I had read that she liked poor soils. but your return is worth gold.
I hope for a good harvest, to delight the community with pretty photos
I've been talking with North Indians a bit about their soil and the testing that's been done on some of these Himalayan plants. I've noticed some of them have very blue leaves. Their soil is naturally low in phosphate and magnesium if I remember correctly. I've noticed when I gave these two nutrients to my plants they really took off. Doesn't have to be a huge amount. We were also talking about carotenoid production. They were saying all the plants in the Malana Valley from Nirang to Waichin show this. They get a pink blush at the tips of the leaves, the petioles, and the stalk. It's not a deficiency, it's an adaptation to the high altitude, the varieties from lower valleys don't show this.
Wow Mr Rye, she's the spitting image of my one purple Hindu Kush x M10 that takes after the purple Hindu Kush. Same tall upright bushy structure, medium size leaves, and blush on the petioles. If yours smells half as good as mine, or vice versa, it must smell amazing. Mine is sweet and the branches and stalk shimmer with crystalized resin. Check out mine.

I think aluminum sulfate (?) also boosts a blue hue when applied to acidify flower beds.
What's their aluminum content in their soils?
(*Side-note: I believe it was h.h. who informed me and others in a conversation with slownickel a couple years back that perlite has a fairly stout aluminum punch in it, something like 11% to 14% if I recall correctly).

Thanks, i was with fear, normally here the skunks first to show the sex end of July but this year are just stretching.
It's possible are late for the heat wave?

Well they are all looking pretty good now, plants are all 8 to 9ft. Still don't have the fill out of previous years, but that is the late start ( seeds started first week of May) and the late start to summer. I decided to go really light on amendments this year and have not really given them any supplemental feeding. Also watering much less frequently, maybe once every 4 days, even during heat waves. Shows we often give them too much love, and they really only need a little help along. Helps that they have a 12yr base of no till.

Naturally occuring zeolite, whether added, or present in native soil, also carries aluminum. That was why I asked, more so than the side-note re. perlite. The original conversation between the folks referenced involved the use of zeolite, and presence of aluminum..
The memory re. aluminum sulfate and the blue hue imparted, had to do with ornamental flowers, and acidifcation of flower beds with the aluminum sulfate.

Hey everyone, hope you’re all well.
Look what’s turned up. These are seeds gifted to me from Bradley Danks and it even cost him $50 US to send them to me, ultra stealth, as per my requirements. These centrifuges are absolutely full of hard work.
We started chatting last year when I was keeping him updated as to the progress of the Jagerschnitzel x Ancient OG f4’s, l grew out, that were a freebie from Schrews....great plants btw.
This is what’s turned up:
Jagersnitzel x Layer Cake
Jagerschnitzel x Royal Highness
Jagerschnitzel x Cherry Chem
Platinum Jager
Jagerschnitzel x Lambrusco
Lambrusco x Donnie Burger
Lambrusco x Forbidden Fruit.
He tells me the Jagerschnitzel x Lambrusco are the stand outs so far in his garden and flower early. The Lambrusco x Forbidden Fruit is really vigourous and Layer Cake is “super vigourous.”
I’ve still got around five weeks before I pop seeds and I’m not sure which ones I’m going to showcase, or how many spots I’ve got to offer; while on the other side of the world, Bradley’s still got quite a few weeks of flower to go before he makes his final recommendations based on what happens with these crosses but for now I’m feeling very happy and grateful to be given such a beautiful gift......l love acts of kindness and it reminds me that it really does pay to be nice.
Cheers,

And here’s a chart he sent me today that I’ve found really helpful understanding nutrients.

That scrog is a nice way to make use of that space. Can you even reach the part in the bottom of the picture though?

I was thinking it can't be good for your back having to crawl like that under the screen, having access from both sides changes everything haha. That's a great use for a little corridor like that.Yes i have Access from both sides

Al solubility in soil is ph dependent. The lower the ph the more al can be sucked uo by the plants.

Aluminium also gets carried out of the soil after it binds to calcium.
Hey Chilliwilli,
I’m not sure if you remember over at Tang’s “cob” thread last year l asked for requests as to how to deal with some dry sift. Your suggestion was to put it in the freezer for years.....well here it is after a year and a half....not much change yet..

Bringing it back to the anything outdoor subject, although it's a little embarrassing to post my little plants next to all these beautiful trees haha but the predator part might be interesting for some.
My maple leaf mom is on her 15th day of forced flower.
The crazy western wind that comes from the Sahara desert (we call it poniente) made the RH fall to 20% and brought with it a bump in spidermite population, so I ordered a persimilis+californicus combo, and some pollen to try and develop a californicus population in the near plants.
This is the first time this year I saw an actual infestation begin. The insect hotels I installed last year in my olive trees are full and there's a lot of activity surrounding the plants, which I assume has helped prevent an infestation so far. I am yet to spray anything this year.
The little sativas are finally in their final pots. The older ones just started their forced flower. The smaller ones will go into flower in a week or so. Hoping for as little stretch as possible for stealh purposes.
Wasps and bees are always in their vecinity because there's always some water for them.
Learning a lot about my garden's ecosystem this year. I am going all in with the predator shit hahaha
