Out in the Shed - Spring 2023

The way they put their back paw into the front paw track may have deformed into a third? Cats normally have an almost straight line for tracks, but the size of those is kind of nuts. Man if that's a Cat paw track Don't let me hang out there LOL, I'll die trying to pet something I shouldn't.

It's a little hard to tell, but it looks like the picture with your hand as reference has distinct little claw marks? I mean if the snow melted at all, or other variables, could also make it look a bit distorted though.

Only thing is that tree path you mentioned; I don't THINK Wolves would do that but that's something I'm not sure about. Bears and Cats of course won't hesitate to climb a tree, but I feel confident in that not being a bear as the claw marks would be pretty noticeable.

Got a trail cam ?
I don't know man... the claw marks look pretty distinct to me. The first thing I thought when I saw them was, "bear." Or maybe badger, but most people don't see them anymore. But I admit to being relatively clueless and a little stoned so who knows....

I thought about a Bear too, specially when he said it was up in a tree. But wouldn't the claw marks and pads be significantly larger ? Also I'm no tracker myself, but I do spend a LOT of time in the Woods so, every chance I'm wrong.

5 toes instead of 4. Size wise not necessarily larger, our bears are small.

Are you near a river? Look like otter tracks to me…
Not one that flows year round. The Denver zoo has not reported any missing otters to my knowledge either. I am south of I-70 east of the continental divide.

These were made by my dog this morning.

Notice they are symmetrical, you can fold it in half vertically. Also, though you can see a dot or 2 in front of the pads in the previous post, notice how all 4 are very prominent. What does not come through in the pictures is the underlying terrain, dog print is on brick patio an in or 2 of snow, suspected cat print is on uneven terrain, partially melted/refroze with only dusting. What stands out to me is they are aysymetrical. The inside middle toe is longer than the outside middle toe.

So you're thinking more feline ? With the size of your hand and the prints made that would be a nice sized kitty :) The two sets of tracks might have been as simple as a Mom with the Kitten, and of course, explains the tree climbing a bit better.

Amended the 3x3

4C Dr. Earth 4-4-4
1C Bone Meal
2C Alfalfa
2C Mustard seed meal
2C Buds
6C Vermicompost

The mustard seed meal is pretty potent smelling, I'd probably cut the rate in half if it's effective for fungus gnats. Will have a pretty good test of it cause the 2x4 isn't getting it.

Moved the cobs around on the new lightand chopped off the extra angle pieces.

Oscillating fan is going out and I was already needing more airflow so I installed a ceiling fan.

Moves a lot of air and is real quiet.

Also switching from a 5 gal o a 25 gal reservoir it's an atv mount sprayer tank that has a built in bottom drain.

Awesome setup! The light frame you built would be perfect for adding automated movement to increase coverage or simulate the sun. Maybe I'm just a little high, but right now it seems like it would be pretty cool.

Time to dig out PLC I got for Christmas a few years ago and start playing with it again...

It's hard for me to tell size from a picture, so who knows...

Thanks.
I used to have a couple arduinos doing a bunch of stuff but it was getting to the point where automation was a bigger part of the hobby than growing. Some might like it but for me they were in competition, I still might get back into it but not with gardening.

A couple of oddities in the (2x4)²
3 blade leaf 1st after coty's

One trying to self-top

I split those leaves apart and there was a little growth at the node so we'll see what it does.

This one there wasn't gonna be any pulling appart.

Starting to top them instead of culling for spacing. Debating what to do with this tent too, now that mago biche is on hold.

IPM Day 1/2 gal - 1/2T Vinerate, 2ml Si, 2 drops Thermx70.

Soil drench Regalia @1.5T/gal, flower got Bti added, almost didn't cause fg pressure is so minimal.

I need to see how the N in the mustard seed breaks down and if it continues to deter fg on consecutive runs as it currently seems to or if it needs to be reapplied. Wouldn't mind adding it in smaller amounts tbh, the first week or two or three after ammending was pretty rough on the eyes and nose. Need to do some more research too but this might also be a replacement for Fertinitro plus as a source of aminos. FNP is soy based, I'd rather not use soy.

Foliar feed - ~3L 2 drops thermx70, 1/2t Mag Phos

One thing I really like about the pruning method I am using is, it allows me to heavily spray the lower leaves where there are no budsites and lightly mist the tops. This way mobile nutrients are abundant where they can be moved and immobile nutrients are still placed where they are needed without added risk of damaging sensitive plants as flower progresses.

Mag Phos contains magnesium, phosphorous and potassium.

Gonna start transplanting some of the seedlings to the 2x4 soon, not many of the cuts are gonna make it. There's a few stinkers in there so I'll try to grab those specially if the cut looks bad. Probably go for 15 or so, leaving the smallest behind.

Don't think I'll be culling any just yet, I accidentally took cuts of Khem Kardshian for sexing, fem seed lol, she was small and veggieng slow to begin with. Most everything else is looking ok, gonna give fish fertilizer next watering.

Ordered up some future entertainment this morning.

That "Breeders Choice Mix 4" will probably get popped sooner rather than later, everything else should be pretty fresh.

Wednesday - 2 days ago - Veg fed with Alaska Fish Fertilizer @2T/gal.

Transplanted 12 to the (2x4)² yesterday, gonna flip in a week or so. Got a few standouts in this batch, should be fun. They're recovering for the most part the light change has been pretty rough on 'em.

Whew! Thing's are heating up in here bro!!??

I've been wanting to run beds vs pots for years now man...Just hasn't really been the optimal play for me, living- situation-wise, up to date, for several reasons and uncertainties. But I've been feeling some itches that need some scratching as of late... and given current circumstances, I think I'm gonna give this some more serious thought for my next run!

..Feel like I'm babbling a lil.... Or maybe my mind's buzzin n just racing through thoughts at the moment... Lemme schmoke some more about it ?

Vegging beds looking ? flower beds praying hard and throwing down ?

Can't thank you enough for this. You made a sleepless night more tolerable (gut issues). I don't have the words to thank you.

Yeah, keep sitting here message in draft form. Mad respect ? @MO_Grow

I thought I was a good grower when I got here. I was. This place is making me a complete grower and I hope a better person.

Now, for me, it's about taking these things that we can improve in our personal lives and applying those lessons to the garden and vice versa.
