  1. Been many a year since I ventured up to the humans world, purveyor of hobbits and fishisis I am. The hills are my home and a 1 horse town with no horse.

    Looking to learn, share and improve my skill set this season and it will hopefully reflect in my garden.

    Always had a interest in organics and this season I reckon is a good as any to start.

    Ive got a cpl seedlings on the go vegging under some fluros under 24hr for now, will drop to 18/6 next month.

    fishisis I have......

    I have 10x 200-240lt fishing holes dug for some of the new girls.

    Ill be lining the holes with the rock/crusher stone for drainageI'm going with 50/50 coco/perlite, 50 top soil, 50 compost and ammending with

    diat earth, fine dolomite lime, turbo grow, rock phosphate, kelp powder.

    if I've not mentioned anything or you can recommend other additives please do.

    Eventually I'm wanting to do raised box beds off those spots, but that's more next years objective me thinks...

    Both are on the same feed/soil at the c99s.

    #Alaskan2 sprouted a weird 2 finger leaf out but no apical stem, as of this morning I see there is the tip of a leaf poking out, so there's hope of greater things to come...

     

    Hope it's a blessed long weekend....8-)

  3. If you get yourself some 40% shade cloth as we are in for a brutal summer this year.... Build a teepee structure round them for now with shade cloth till they bigger or you have a bigger shade cloth structure.

  4. For young plants chicken wire domes work well, but if you don't have access to chicken wire go to builders warehouse/mica or some hardware store....

    1m by 3m shade netting 40% ( R40-R50 )density and 3 sticks bout 200-400cm in length. Make a tripod with the sticks above your plant and then cut out shade cloth to fit. Use cut out design to do the rest of your cut outs from shade netting.

    It will stop cats, birds and this extreme heat we having from killing your girls at this young age. Growers up and down the country are crying right now outdoors cause our summer are only going to get hotter in years to come... Some guys are losing 10-100 young plants at a time up in nelspruit area I've seen/heard.

  5. Damn Danny, well judging by the response and advice from folk you've never met I reckon they might have more true honest friendship in common with you than your mate ( even though we never met him )......

     

    I won't tell you about the " 3 hiccups " .......hahaha only kidding 

    Everyone has their good traits and bad, some just prefer their bad traits above good and sometimes they aren't aware of it. But this ou is taking the piss and knows it.

  6. Morning DannyH I actually chuckled when I read this now as I think by what I've read you remind me of my younger self....lol and I only turned 40 in May this year...haha. I'm honestly sorry to hear this " C..NT " has destroyed so much that has personal value to you.... Your meds you grow. Life is full of sentimental things that mean a lot to us personally but not to others.

    Your roomy is a " cause and reaction " type of guy, he's causes a situation to see the reaction he can get out it and learns from your reactions to find out what buttons he can push and what he can get away with..

    call it subconsciously controlling you if you will,  he's going to push your buttons till you go " fuck it " and let him get his way, so he's won a small victory cause he's broken you and knows next time he can start taking bigger chances cause the chances of him getting you to cave in to his wants... ( he only pinches a bud here and there and you let him get away with it cause it's easier than arguing so he's won, in 6 months time he starts helping himself to fresh product )

    There is 3 bumps in the friendship cycle DannyH and if I'd known them when I was younger my life would of been easy sailing but maby not as much fun....haha

    1st bump.... So you've been mates for however long and he fucks up to the point where this is the 1st bump but because you like to give the person the benefit of the doubt you proceed with the journey......

    2nd bump....So months or a cpl years have past and you both now approach the 2nd bump in your friendship/dealings in life and this is where that " niggly " I told you so moment passes through your mind as you recall the 1st bump, and now you start to wonder bout the effort you've put in and whether it's worth the time and effort in proceeding with the friendship or whatever the problem/situation is as the 3 bumps in life is applicable to almost any challenge you face...

    3rd bump... Now sadly this is the bump because of my faith in human nature that I seem to find most often in my dealings with obstacles in my life because I let situations take advantage of me....So you have 2 choices now at this 3rd bump in the road that you are now approaching. You can either as you have done and that is turn around and go around the bump as its no longer going to be a bump in your future and carry on with a awsome life or if you decide going over the 3rd bump is worth it.......... Then as I have done with some of my 3rd bumps cause they are worth it I either get new shocks or let some air out the tires and proceed over the 3rd bump brother Danny...

    If you start learning to avoid/ go around bumps now it will serve you well in your later years.....
