Default GTs 2009 SoCal outdoor grow
permalink
This is the start of my 2009 SoCal outdoor grow. All constructive questions and comments welcome.

Im going to start with the soil and amendments. The soil mix I will use is a variation of Subcool's Supersoil. I will rototill the soil mixture into the clayey soil in my yard and make raised beds (thx for the idea Hodgie). I will also grow some in 20-30 gal pots.

The soil is first mixed and then let to compost since its prety hot. Once composted (1-2 months from mixing), I will load the pots about 1/2 way with supersoil. The next 1/4 above the supersoil will be a mix of supersoil and Gardner & Bloom potting soil. The last 1/4 of the pot will be filled with just G&B potting soil. This approach should ease the roots into the supersoil without burnig.

The Modified supersoil has the folowing ingredients:

16cuft G&B Compost
40 lbs pure worm castings
5 lbs blood meal
5 lbs bone meal
5 lbs bloom bat guano
3 lbs rock phosphate
3/4 c epsom salt
1/2 c sweet lime (dolomite)
1/2 c azomite (trace elements)
2 tblsp powdered humic acid
50 lbs chicken manure (puew!)
5 lbs kelp meal
60 lb bag of pumice rock (instead of perlite

I will post pics of the babies tomorrow.

I received these WC and G13 clones on 4/21. As you can see they were nicely rooted in rockwool cubes. I potted them in plain G & B potting soil with about 15 % perlite. I potted some of them down about 1/2 way since they were a bit tall. Following potting I gave them a drink and set them in the sun.

Its been overcast since the first day but today was sunny but not too hot in the hi 60s. Evenings have been steady at around 51-54 degrees. plants are looking good. Two of the pplants were received in flower and I'm hoping they will revert back to veg.

Otherwise, on 4/24 PM-4/25 AM I sowed 26 seeds of 6 strains. Nothing has poked out of the Rapid Rooters yet. I am keeping them ontop of my aquarium for a little heat (71-7. Will put up a strain list of all surviving seed sprouts.

I will also be mixing all those nice amendments and the compost for ground amending and potted plants. The mix will need to compost befor use.

I need someone to watch me. I went to the my local hydro store to pick up nutes and instead of getting Flornova Bloom and Grow with Flor micro I got the 3 part flor series. Damn I hate when I do that. Also ordered a contiunuous pH, TDS, EC, and T multimeter (Hanna 991404 [http://www.eseasongear.com/hahiphmo99ne.html]) This was the best price which my hydro shop matched. Comes Wed.
