Ok.. I've started this grow log..
Background:
I'm from Brisbane in the state of QLD in Australia.
Climate:
Sub tropical- dry cool winters, hot humid summers.
Winter temps- 5c to 23c Av. with low humidity,
Summer - 18c to 30 Av, with up to 90% humidity, depending on winds.
Growing aspect:
Plants will be grown in containers on concrete, with an Easterly aspect under cover,
They would get at lest 6hrs of full sun including shade during the hottest part of the day ( 12-2pm)
( Can move them to get all day sun, but its a bit harsh down here)
Soil;
I'm going to Use Osmocte Plus Organics Veg, Tomato, Herb mix
Nutrients:
Liquid Powerfeed weak solution weekly, Sudden Impact For Roses pellets monthly (one tsp)
Defence:
Neem Oil spray, Fruit fly traps every 2 metres.
Havn't worked a good fungicide yet ?? open for idea's ?
Overwintered:
2 year old seed ( Yellow 7 Pot ) from THSC which finally sprouted end of Summer, nearly died, but I have replanted in the above potting mix and is up and growing.
Seeds:
Germination Method: Paper towel zip lock bag placed on top of fridge.
Seeds germinated:
Mustard Devils Tongue
Black Devils Tongue
Super Sioux tomatoes.
I will keep updating as seeds pop up.
Will post pics soon.
Cheers
Peter
