2 weeks ago I started to write the weekly post like this Week 8 Plant is waiting for the growing kick. For the moment it’s a pretty plant; relatively healthy despite of all pests or diseases to prevent or fight soon before summer. Temperatures are around 30 degrees some day, and there’s lot of insects: some are good for the plant, some are bad. I’m intensifying the preventative treatments: this week I sprayed Neem oil and 3 days after: a decoction made with distilled water + garlic + chili (maturing 10 days in dark). 12 hours after spraying my preparation without any ph test before😱🤯💀…disaster happened: the plant was damaged, burned, with crispy yellow leaves: very big mistake. Stressing and busy life has bad consequences on the culture. I must take my time before acting. New commandment: ALWAYS YOU’LL TEST YOUR PREPARATION BEFORE SPRAYING So angry 😡 I started fo flush leaves and plants , spraying morning and before night distilled water. Cutting yellow leaves. I tested the preparation after, too late: ph 4 or less….😔👏🏼….well done. But plant are not dying, major damages on leaves. It will be a question of time to recover health: plant is still growing. Training the plant such as an espalier, well adapted to the light exposure in my place. I built a sort of basic scale with bamboo and twisted carefully the main branches around. Less risky and less time spend…. Using nutrients: Flora Series from général hydroponic : working good for outdoor
