Bru, these competitions are decided by votes volunteered from forum members willing to cast a vote. So how is this manipulated? So you lost by a vote, and then...?

A little mid flower update. Still a long way to go for these girls.

Little update on the Crystal Gelato. Starting to get frosty.

There are few things worse than harvesting a bud even a week early. Its a dissappointing smoke. Let her finish yes. I agree.

It does look like a playboy bunny with an extra ear though. Dont change it. Its lekker.

If they are going outside, why dont you introduce them to the Sun now already, and just use the indoor environment to add extra "daytime" hours. They will benefit way more from the Sun imo.

EWC, bonemeal, and gold dust. All soft organics that dont really mess with each other at all, and covers all my plants needs. All my vegetables and herbs grow in this environment perfectly. In the ground this is enough. In a containter it would be insufficient fertilisation and constant lockouts as keeping a stable pH would be almost impossible. Thats why my or any other supersoil "cooks".

No ratios at all. It's routine feeding once a month only by lightly tilling in the amendments. I really just grab a handful and sprinkle over a large area. Less is always more and I have less control in the ground so I find it best to just dilligently feed the microbes and keep the soil alive.

The initial hole was filled with my soil although I no longer even water in that area. The feeding ring is outside and using only the following as amendments as the season progresses. The bonemeal for eg I started feeding 2 months ago, considering the time it take for P to become available. The gold dust gives me all the Ca I need as well as plenty micro nutrients. I haven't really worked out a feeding schedule. I know my plants well and pick up when they need something.

All is progressing smoothly. Still far far away from budshot material though.

The CG is filling out just great. The BB is only really starting now, but isnt a big yielder anyway.

My bru, if youve learnt just how little you need and use it then great. Ive just seen so many people mess up their soil forever by adding too much that I automatically warn. Lol. Mg has a lot of clout when it comes to cation exchange and can cause a range of lockouts at once.

I would say carry on with your planned feeding schedule and start pushing more bloom, less grow. Think of it this way. In nature the plant grew those fan leaves to provide energy for the plant to continue to develop. Out there, there is nobody feeding her so its normal for her to dive into the reserves she kept for this. You can safely remove those fan leaves and in doing so allow for more light to reach in. Let her dry out a bit longer in flowering. The fungi that make the P available to your plant need a drier environment in the soil compared to the bacteria rich veg environment.

I agree. Once plants hit peak flowering they are like machines and need plenty food. Plants also make use of quite a bit of N while transitioning. If there isnt enough at the roots the plant will cannibalise N from the oldest parts of the plants. I would however caution trying a good N feed to fix it. The plant wont take the N where you want it but to the growing tips. N toxicity is easy to step into now. Also I read you saying something about epsom salts. Keep it away from your girls. It will wreck your medium.

My bru, its so the old folk can get their stone on at the pensioners tuesdays at ster kinekor. But yeah I feel a strong spanish and american influence in how these guys have decided to operate. South Africa is really unique in our CannaCulture and I see more dutch influence in actuality than any other.

I have been wondering why mainstream news has been so quiet about this. Here is an article covering the Krugersdorp raid. https://krugersdorpnews.co.za/374856/public-weed-shop-in-krugersdorp-under-police-investigation/

Krugersdorp branch either raided or the franchisee decided its best to keep the doors closed.

We all find our favorites. Ive been stuck on the cantelope haze that this chocolope cross pushes for 5 years.

Whats sad is that people think or are being taught that this low grade outdoor is what outdoor is supposed to look like. Ive grown and seen other outdoor bud that is the envy of some of the best indoor. If you dont have the grade needed to do proper business you shouldnt be. This is medicine we are talking about.

Joh. Thats like regular old street skyf. R10-20 a gram, depending on how much was intercepted on the way.

There was a post on the Oudtshoorn Canapax page which has since been removed. Basically the case is postponed for further investigation. Even more brazen is that even with them in legal limbo, the post also said that they'd head straight to SAPS after court to hand in documents that the George store will be open for business tomorrow. So yeah....

One time bru. Me im sommer a Shamen.

Its not thrown out. SAPS are not done with their investigation. This will be one to watch. If this slides then every last one of us are tradtional healers. Fact.

Have a look at this section of the forum. https://www.420sa.co.za/index.php?/forum/34-organic-growing-growing-in-soil/ Check GLOs soil or mine as one of many ideas on organics. Cannabis needs a specific root environment. Potting soil brands besides Freedom farms just dont cut it. But even freedom farms is spread thin.
