OldG's QUANTUM SHIFT Organic Garden. it about Jadam time !

[Frimpong]

Yesterday I did a bunch of yard work with my wife..it was her day off.
Wow did i enjoy that. Smelling earth stirred makes my heart soar. To that endeavor I am doing 2 things...

My ROLS that i salted up is going in outside planters and i am going to replace my INDOOR grow soil (Stepwell SSW or Blackwell KIS combo)

I am going to run Red Flood and Drains...to use my salts up. I have 7 litre (very close to 2 gallon) and 1 and 2 gallon planters to try....3 totes ready and i found 11 dollar CDN mixing buckets that fit the tote.

I can not do...this pot is soil this pot is coco.

The outlaw Josey Wales.... A man's got to know his limitations.

So water systems and top dress organic living soil is my indoor. And i can fill all my starters...and give aways with rols. . It owes me NOTHING after 2 years of fine cannabis.

Might get into worms...but lets not get CRAZY.

Indoor 5 x 10 room....lets call it that. it is 5 foot 8 x 10 but i like space to water.

And a Crush Genetics Jenny O
3 fems out of 5....she is the nicest.
View attachment 166039
I was in a funk 2 days ago....its been a while. Then....I smoked enough weed to snap out of it...and SPRING...GROWTH....DOGS THAT GO NUTS PLAYING IN SPRING.

Yesterday I did a charcoal bbq (Portugese Restaraunt Charcoal).... Chicken and Ribs...

So...that was very worth it.

I cut up a piece of chicken breast and chopped it fine....sandy RAN to her eating spot. As soon as i opened the container...
she is a border collie/golden retriever...and i taught her to wink one eye when she wants something.

Border collies are the smartest dog I have ever dealt with and this is the first dog in my life that listens to me. Last night she was howling at the back neighbors auto lawn mower...my poor wife...
I did the 3 shrill whistles like water droplets pop pop pop...and she ran inside.
Good luck mimicking that

Way to go...Glue Maiden.... FOR THE WIN and thrips are DEAD as dead. Time release sprayer for the win.

Now i will stagger my harvests with a 1 week on 1 week off... this year... hit the bricks thrips !

That Jenny O is insane and man the Dante's/Pigs cut ain't to shabby either. Better hell of a nice collection of cuts there now too!?

@OldG what tray did you find to fit the tote in the F&D?

 

[OldG]

Believe it or not it is the same concrete tubs

Large

https://www.homedepot.ca/product/shelves-llc-large-mixing-tub/1001098728

Medium i think this will fit

https://www.homedepot.ca/product/shelves-llc-medium-mixing-tub/1001098727

only 436 in stock in aisle 8
I paid 30 bucks for the ones i have...EACH Bastigos !

at 8 bucks i will get 5 of them and use them for bottom trays in the 20 x 36 tents


I better buy one and check it out...24 x 36 inches.... for the depot one so its bigger. i think?

at the DEPOT..... Well done orange bucket land !!

Get your totes at Costco for a 50% cheaper.

8 bucks is SUPER cheap. I might have to make them and list them on marketplace

At Home Dopey it's the medium mixing pan. Blowes has the same one here as well. $8 and it is 20 x28. I have a 30 x 60 tent that these fit 3 abreast, almost perfectly.

I know they changed the fitment of the (med) mixing tray I used on the first set of those. The first ones were like married to the XL tote and allowed zero light into the res. The more recent ones I tried didnt fit right in top of the tote, was like it was 1/2" total circumfrence too big and kinda sat above the tote a bit as to where the older ones sat directly flush edge to edge when stacked inside. Thats the whole reason I switched to the Hefty totes because the 4 gal fit perfectly into the 9 gal allowing zero light in to the res. It was a match made in heaven once again, then they discontinued the Hefty tote line of those and Ive been looking for a "new" DIY setup since. All I can manage to find that stack the way the Hefty's did are the shitty clear ones. Might wind up defaulting back to the OG setup if these new mixing tray fits the XL totes like they used to.

Use a heat gun to mold the tub(s) of the ones that "kinda" work.

 

[OldG]

The new ones are FANTASTICO !!!

Medium home depot concrete mixing tubs

the sides are less steep in the angle so these 6 X 5 litre mondi quadro pots fit PERFECTLY.

This is going into play soon as the cuts are big enough.

8 bucks CDN for one...its not as thick...but once i get the holes in it wont matter

 

[OldG]

I think Im gonna need a fat sack of hydroton..

I am going to run 4 of them...

Crush Genetics OROX.... Very ORANGE. Very FAT buds...i have a cut in a 5 g that is almost ready to bloom...once i can get a cloner spot for a cut or 2.

Cherry Maiden (Cherry MAC X Maiden Voyage)

Dantes Pigs cut #1

Get your IPM ready folks....the bugs are alive and thriving outside.
I think I will make a batch of jadam wetting agent later this week. I am down to my last couple of applications.

I have all the inputs from the first 3 1/2 gallons i made. I will get fresh distilled water bottles and do it nice and clean

And if you ever decide you are done with it Hydroton makes great mulch.

Pull up a chair and smoke some fine herb....lets solve the problems of the world together...

Thankfully....one more brake job and i can drop the 2 x 4 trays in the garage and up pot these solo cups of veg to 1 and 2 g panda bags.

1 g panda bag holds 2 FULL 1 gallon trade pots
the 2g is closer to 4...PERFECT for autos.

May 12 is no frost date (guaranteed) But the garage is warm enough...i will move a 4 x 1 citi cob out there...maybe a board light to set things on 14-10 with the sun and harden them to the colder temps.

These are just the San Marzanos and Early Girls... my 3/4 gallon pour jug is there for size comparison.

Next year...i will start them march 14 and not march 1...but man they are BEAUTY.

Opalkas are behind in size but I have 24 for 24.

I will be the Son-In-Law of the century when i give my 3 mothers in law opalkas

And also... Principe Borghese . I cant spell it its cut and paste for life....why not call it sun dried sunshine or.... like shit weed farmers have to really think about it..

And I might be very high....dantes pigs cut 3 is still on the plate. Man that branch is taking a while... i cant smoke an entire doob

The idea is ponderous... And I really can not believe it.

weed is fantastic.


The black autopot is....Dantes Pigs cut 1 i put that shit on everything !

 

[OldG]

Oh i forgot to mention.. I have a couple of plants or 4 or ...

Getting obnoxuous...waiting in veg.

Dubstep... Stank Bubble....Iced Banana...Orox... off the top of my head.

And bloom room removes an hps and a cob...but will be 5 X 240 watt new tech lights ...my summer max.

going to be an epic summer.... This morning i am smoking on the sour sherb i created.

I thought it would be not so good....a 12 inch plant stretched 6 inches TOTAL.

Sour Diesel BX 4 (Top Dawg) is a short ass diesel X King Sherb..... but the smoke... WOW.

Garage diesel smells...with a fruity backnote and the most wonderful sativa effect with just enough indica to chill out the overthink and make life GLORIOUS again.

I dumped a bunch in a cup this morning...time to find a flood and drain masterpiece theatre

 

[OldG]

Was in an outright funk yesterday...been a few days of late where IBS reminded me its for life.

I was ahead of it...life is great and then...like a shitty Aerosmith song...REMEMBER.

what i often forget now is to smoke a doob. I have strains for that ...cured and ready.

And godbud...man it is the gut melter...make you giggle sedater i need. Godsherb to the rescue.

I got so high i forgot...I am MEDICAL ... omg the doobs fixed it.


Turn that frown upside down

I am going to persue a couple of mine to f2. Gods Herb is ...as surprising as my wife. When you do not deserve shit in life...an angel is sent...or that is my experience.

And sour sherb...smoking it all day today. What a fantastic smoke. Nasty garage diesel muted with the dry...and punced out that blue sherbert taste in the backnote

Giddy happy weed all day...with intesnse effect...half doober for life shit... Thank you GrowGods !!!

 

[OldG]

Im going to work the hoe....til the sweat drips out of every pore.

And sore... wow am i sore.

up at midnight hurt from my lips to my ankles kinda sore.

Gardening for the win.

Garlic

Potatoes (a 5 x 10 bed.... Plus i have 5 X 20s and 25s with seeds...i chitted them and WOW does that work).

There was this big rock behind that tree....like a 100 pounder....this year the frost finally heaved it up and i got it out and that was VERY satisfying.





This is the front yard stuff.

And I used some pavers to close this space in...i have dill to plant it can go there.


Bloom room is only half full... this half is now in the garage.


That is a Flap Maiden...1 of....up to 4 going outside.
1 is an Iced Banana from a Facebook contest.
I think Im going to find a fat planter and put this crazy Crush Genetics OROX in as well.
This is the MOM of the Orox....and.... nice and squat with pringles buds that smell of ORANGEs.
Oh yes...i will have another

Thats 3....maybe i will do 2 autos (1 after another) to round it out.

The first 3 though....yup... LOCKED DOWN.

 

[OldG]

I have 5 getting the water treatment..... and yes i flush.... this time.

Freak Genetics Maiden Voyage

Inhouse Iced Banana....cuts took...they usually do. as long as i keep 1 i am giving the rest out for outdoor (i think it will be GREAT outside).

Dantes Pigs Cut 2.... this is my keeper...that 60 day finish...and the flavor is very close in all 3 cuts i had.
Frosty much??? And this is a really strong strain. Amazing flavor..sweet...creamy...wonderful zero funk.

I prefer no funk...unless i want funk.

And Crush Genetics OROX.... i have a fat one in a 5...taking cuts soon as these root and then its going in a 30 outside.... Oh but I must.
Willie...thanks man !
Frim too...

2 of the outdoor plants....went out.
