Been looking forward to a few things in this run for a minute, some have had a little more planning than others.The shed beds got too dry over the dormancy period the last 6 months. I've got some good vermicompost with lots of live worms that will go down as soon as the beds get to a good saturation.
I'm reammending based on my interpretation of sample results collected at the end of my last run and will resample next spring when I shut it back down. Lately I've been going basically water only, minimal (1 or 2) topdressings with a 4-4-4 or bloom some tm-7 and a few foliars of cal carb and epsom.

To this point the 3x3 has gotten 1/2 lb (1/2 C) langbenite, 2 gallons of pumice and is being watered with a rotation of BAS big 6, rootwise microbe complete, bio phos, enzyme, or photosynthesis plus. Each watering is being pH'd below 4 with concentrated sulfuric.
The 2x4 has gotten the same plus 3/4C Rock Phosphate and 1/2C blood meal.
The shed is getting a pretty decent rework. Switching the door to an out-swing gave me so much more usable space. More amps than I know what to do with (almost).
I need to check out that sativa looking thing in the back left, a seed from a care package (corrugated birthday card) got loose and I hadn't a clue what it was so it got popped. It is hitting its dli pretty hard right now under only 60W max and I just swapped the driver for one that will hit 220. Pretty sure it's Lao Sa, gonna see if I can find a darker corner.
The GG4 has been on my list for a while, they seem to be stretching for more light so I'm looking to take cuts in the next couple days. Need to make a mother plant too. If anyone has tips or tricks on growing this one I'd appreciate them. Looking at it right now I'm a bit concerned about support but I think it will respond well to my pruning methods as long as I can keep the mains even.
I have a Rhodium tester that needs flowered out and I just popped some beans in water last night. Mango Biche will be documented in its preservation thread and I dropped 3 ea. Mango Tango x Oilspill @GthaEnigma , GrapesMac F2 @HBZ , Blueberry Muffin @Amarok
Plan is to do 4 in the 3x3 and 3 in the 2x4, 4 slots are full cause I'll be doing at least 2 of the GG4, the Lao Sa and Rhodium.
Summer results were a bit of a mixed bag, one I had high hopes for may end up compost (frost damage), while another shifted away from chicken dinner indoor to have a sweeter orange to it outdoor.
I'll most likely end up doing 2 sensi runs this season 2 preservation runs (think afgaan90 while MB veges) and a hemp/cbd/cbg/triploid run.
I'll get soil samples this spring to follow up on the linked post.
