This is the 1st female on the #2 Barron 2144. It will open tomorrow at 7am. Every plant I've ever grown has females that open at 7 am !! The 2nd and most recent soil test showed low Boron. Manganese wasn't low but more could be added to improve the ratios of the Langley estimator. Because the macros and micros are good, I'm not adding any "fertilizer". But...I'm adding a lot of "biologicals". This is a list of what I fed the soil today. 3 tablesp Solubor. 3 tablesp MnSO4. 1/4 cup Amino Acid powder. 1 cup Hyshield (plant health booster). 1 cup Affinity ( a liquid 5:2). 1 cup Hygrozyme (root rot prevention). 1 cup molasses( boosts microbial activity). 1 cup liquid kelp. 2 cups Hygroben (bacillus bacteria). 1/2 cup Hyclean ( ecologically friendly irrigation pipe and dripper cleaner). Azos and Mykos is cultivated into the soil. ! tablespoon Nova (fungicide. 1 tablespoon Beleaf (insecticide). Pretty crazy ...eh?? I've been increasing the numbers of ingredients I've been adding to my concoctions but this the most !! It's all about trying to increase my patch efficiency. A day later and the plant is doing very well.
