GH updates 2016-7
I built this from scraps
[IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161119_134848.jpg[/IMG] then installed a dutch bucket hydro system and threw in a few plants [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161119_134949.jpg[/IMG] 1 week later the plants are starting to get accustomed to the hydro grow [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_05271.jpg[/IMG] and now, the plants are growing nice but I did change out the nutes, I think the 50lb bag of CalNit I bought a while back is weaker than Southern Ag [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_0552.jpg[/IMG] Here's a few shots of what's growing Brad's Black Heart from Tom, the seeds were from 2010 [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151304.jpg[/IMG] 2 George Detsikas Italian Red [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151329.jpg[/IMG] Dana's Dusky Rose [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151341.jpg[/IMG] Grightmire's Pride [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151356.jpg[/IMG] Daniel Burson [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151405.jpg[/IMG] Owen's Purple in an EB type thing I made fed with TT [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151427.jpg[/IMG] PBTD [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151456.jpg[/IMG] 3 containers of PBTD then Big Beef Hybrid and Creoles in the last container [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/Mobile%20Uploads/20161206_151514.jpg[/IMG] |
I know it's hard to see but all 5 seeds I started of Mat-Su from Cole has sprouted in 4 days, I didn't use a heat mat and the temps in the house has been 68-72. I just used a fresh bag of MG moisture control/3 months feeding potting soil.

I am jealous. I was hoping today that the snow would finish sliding off of my greenhouses. LOL
Lookin good, us northerners can live through you for a few months, keep us posted. |
I will keep posted pics up for you to see what's happening.
|
Your scraps gh looks awesome! Jimbo.
|
This is really nice. I agree that your scraps are pretty darn nice. What are you going to do when those plants become gigantic? You've got some that really get big.
|
I'll keep them pruned to single stem and start dropping the plant as it grows. I have almost 6' before I need to start dropping them.

We had a bone chilling cold front come through and it got down to 37 last night.;) I had 2 small heaters set at 52-54 and they worked perfect. I'm glad we don't have many freezing nights. The tomatoes came out fine and some are flowering today.

And Cole's Mat-Su are standing tall.

[IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_0557.jpg[/IMG] These will go as soon as the tomatoes are ripe, I plan on building a table for transplants in the area [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_0559.jpg[/IMG] A volunteer growing in a potted rose I bought on clearance a while back, no clue where the seed came from or what it is but it wants to grow [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_0563.jpg[/IMG] I have a few pepper plants I'm over wintering and some are still flowering, Cowhorn and Tobasco upper left [IMG]http://i1116.photobucket.com/albums/k570/robnms/100_0562.jpg[/IMG] Mark, I started 5 seeds of each Saturday afternoon and Wednesday they started popping, all are doing good. 100% germ rate.
