Flower Day 12
Tried to supercrop 2 branches on G2 that were sticking above the canopy - snapped one halfway thru and taped it up, the other was successfuly crushed and bent over 90 degrees, but 8hrs later was standing almost straight back up with a little kink. I think I'll stick to LST - only its getting hard to see whats going on under there...
They got a Seasol foliar spray yesterday to head off any Cal/Mg deficiency and an AACT is in the brew now. I also started adding fulvic acid to the reservoir at 1mL/L - supposed to help with organic nutrient uptake... I also bought a solar powered air pump for the reservoir, but its been cloudy the past few days and nothings happening
Mahamrityunjaya yajna performed on the blood moon eclipse
G3 (a beautiful plant) was the only male
of the batch of 4. I wish I could've kept him alive at a stud ranch, but in the end he was offered up to the sacred fire to seek blessings from the bud gods. In 7 weeks he had reached out to the bottom of the 15L fabric grow bag and maybe 60% of its volume was packed with a healthy looking root system.
I thought I would post the translation of the mantra I mentioned earlier - it really is about the god of ganja... reciting this prayer while burning ganja is a way of showing respect to Rudra the fragrant one.
Aum
Tryambakam: (refers to the universal triads - e.g. the processes of creation, existence, and dissolution, as well as the three levels of
conscious, unconscious, subconscious
Yajamahe: We rejoice in meditation on all of this.
Sugandhim:
danky fragrance of ganja which permeates the whole of existence, sweet smell of the erb
Pushtivardhanam: which sustains and nourishes all.
Urvarukamiva: diseases of ignorance and untruth, which are like the death of Wisdom or Truth.
Bandhanan: (referring to the ignorance above) that binds us down in this fake world
Mrityor Mukshiya: liberate us from the ignorance and untruth and also the cycles of physical, mental, and spiritual death.
Maamritat: please give me that rejuvenating nectar, so as to have this liberation, like the process of severing the bud from the cannabis stalk.
In essence, its really saying that ganja is the liberator of the mind and the source of spiritual sustenance which was given to us by Lord Shiva to dispel our ignorance.
Stuff that in your pipe and smoke it Christianity/jews/mooslims etc etc. Hinduism had it right 5000 years before any of you.
G4
The runt of the litter got an extra 11 days of veg under a 250W MH setup and has now joined the flower cave - it still looks a bit ratty, but I've top dressed her with compost and hit her with an Alfalfa seed SST and AACTs so hoping to harvest some 'semi organic bud' this round!
PS: I'm soaking 10 schwaggy bag seeds (3-4 years old) to test out my new soiless growing medium mix - if it works I'll use it for my next batch of Ganesh's - which will probably be a organic soiless SOG. A new grow journal will be posted if any of the unknown seeds actually germinate...
