Ray's grow 7 season strawberry ice

Who are our organic guys? I have a question about measurements. I put 1/2 cup of fish bone meal and langbeinite with 1/4cup of bio live. I am wondering if that’s enough for a six foot plant in a 5 gal pot. Or should I add more. Same question for her sister who is in the dirt in the garden. @Missiles @dbrn32 @PurpNGold74 @GreenJewels

I’m new to organics and living soil. I don’t feel comfortable giving advice but @AAA or @Budbrother or @Skydiver are always a wealth of organic knowledge :v::green_heart:

What do the product instructions say? I usually follow the guidelines but at a 1/2 rate and twice as often.

Ok my next question is for hydro growers. Ok my girls are really sucking up the water now about a gallon a day so I have to constantly give them new water and feed do I really need to change the water after a week or two because they use it so fast now. I might have to run a experiment on this lol.

@GreenJewels what I like about Jack’s is it’s a powder and it comes in plastic bags so I don’t have to pay for tons of water and plastic bottles. I ran the numbers and the 1 kilo bag will make 277 gallons of feed.

this it’s after I thinned them out

I first heard of it on a chart from the Greenleaf megacrop website. They compared the ingredients and cost of several nutes, Jack’s and megacrop were the best deal.

Wow these are just growing great I ran into a pH problem but fixed it. Basically I didn’t check it and my ppm jumped from 1050 to 1650 so she was just talking up water and not the nutrients lol. User error. The plants are now swinging from 5.5 to 6.5 with no ppm increases. I learned about shade response that’s one of the reasons only certain branches elongated. I thinned out a bunch of the canopy.
This is what they look like today. I think I have 3 more weeks in the girls outside so early October for those and 5 more weeks for these.


I do like how they are stacking on the SI strain

I understand what a phenotype is now lol only took 2 years to actually comprehend it. I am definitely going to clone her again she has very hyper growth. It’s a trait I want. I am going to search for a male or make a male and attempt my first cross next year. A winter project if you will lol. I’ll probably screw up along the way but that’s how you learn.
These are in there 4th week.

OK who are our outside growers? I am harvesting and notice that i have a few fruit flys stuck in some of my trichomes. i think they are fruit flys because its near my compost bin and that is covered in fly and fruit flies. Would doing a bud wash take care of this? will the little bugs floats to the top of the water?

@Big123 is an outdoor grower I would definitely do a bud wash

Yes, wash suggested in most cases, add some hydrogen peroxide to water, dunk, rinse, dunk, and spray with freshwater. I added the clean water rinse dunk this year due to wildfire ash and soot.

I decided to do the bud wash. I have decent weather all week no rain low 70s high 60s during the day and high 40s low 50s at night so I will let her go until Sunday then I can take out my totes and do a bud wash

I think you will be amazed at the bugs and stuff floating in your water when your done.

Look what I found as I trimmed some of my harvest.


Now I have heard that plants will produce a seed at the end of life even if they are not pollinated to keep the genres going.
