Opium is a strong girl and so far she has had a great resistance to any of the below mentioned deficiencies, she has had the same treatment and preventives. We have had quite a bit of rain this year already, her canopy is quite dense and somewhat blocks the rain from her pot so it does not quench a root thirst. Opium always seems to be happy and we are impressed by the way her branches have set themselves up to flower, this stage looks like it has finally begun although she still seems to be reaching for higher heights.
Aside from our regular regimen we have had to step up our game due to yellowing leaves, more so on our Kush plant which we noticed right away and we had to start a treatment immediately to rectify the situation.
Hyshield has been added to the rain barrel once a week to provide an overall health booster.
We used Sensizyme from Advanced Nutrients to promote a good root wash and clean up the overall health of the soil.
Fearless Gardener Rocket Fuel was used as a supplement in the soil and as a foliar spray which they happily responded to very quickly. We also used the Fearless Gardener Flavonator which we hope boosts the flavours!
In addition LIFE by Hydroponic Reasearch has been used to benefit the Rhizosphere Organisms and Mycorrhizal Fungi.
We have also added Gaia Green’s Power Bloom, Diatomaceous Earth as well as their Rock Dust Blend to the top coat.
The most recent treat for them was MBXGROW microbes which they loved and of course they had a dose of Dutch Science Nutrients Cal/Mag, this seemed to perk them up right away. We now have new growth that is coming in healthy and green, we hope that this is the last of our issues for these girls and that they grow steady on.
