Yeah I might be out of control on the webers! A weber a day keep something away, just not sure what. I grabbed an "A Code"(1979) for 10 bucks. Been seeing it laying on its side for a month or so, so I stopped and offered 10 bucks when I seen they had a "new" junk grill they were cooking on. He seemed a little weirded out that I wanted to buy it, but he took the money lol. I need to get one leg socket welded back on, and its missing one daisy wheel vent, but its actually in pretty good shape. Added it to the herd/flock/gaggle!

And the weather looked decent enough, 2 days without rain, so I figured I better get them out for some sun. Maybe I can get half of them planted before the end of the month.

Is the weather holding for dirt day????

Hey, you hoarding Webers now?

Lol. I've got a spare kettle grill if you're interested, Walchit.

Congratulations on your plants, too; everything looks great!

That's almost an understatement, Uncle E!

Your grow is looking just awesome, Andy! Those
are some nice sized plants - they will literally be
trees by July!

Hope the Kansas weather is going to treat you
well as you get into plant-out!

You could have your kids class come out for a field trip. Have them rascals help plant [emoji16]. STEM credit [emoji106].

I think it actually attracts more!

I didnt get the best recipe written down for the pineapple mango, I should have tried to duplicate it sooner, while it was fresh in my memory. I have these 2 ferment ready to be processed, but I haven't wanted to mess the kitchen up, and between school, plants, soccer, baseball, and softball, I haven't had time.

I know the recipe is pretty close on my white devil sauce, so I might make a big batch of it with last years peppers.

Hey Bhuthead, are you still feeding your plants with your tea mixture,eh.

I've been saving that for plant out. Just been feeding them with the alaskan step one, and some fish, just dump a little in each gallon and a pinch of ph up, I haven't even been checking the ph lol.

I burnt up some of the plants a little. Hardening off is hard. Lol

PaulG · May 19, 2019

They are starting to look like outdoor plants, Andy!

Good luck hardening off those babies.

Masher · May 19, 2019

Andy, why the ph up?

Ouch on the sunburn, still tons of great looking plants.

:cheers:

When I checked the ph with a tablespoon of fish and a tablespoon or 2 of the one step stuff my oh was really low. I used ph up to get them back up close to 6. Now I have just been adding a sprinkle. Its the Alaskan granules. Idk if it helps, I should be using the meter, but when i start seeing wilty plants I usually dont feel like watering.

I have 10-12 stuck in the mud. Rained last night, radar not looking good for today, and I think they said rain tomorrow too. The ground squishes under the weed mat and mulch when you step on it. I might try to stick some plants in these 15 gal pots with last year's soil, Idk.

Starting to wonder if I will get a harvest this year.

Here are a few growdown plants. I put the one with pods and the off pheno one into fabric pots for now. I have these big tank things I might pot them up in.

Peach Bonnet Scorpion X

Dedo de Moca (G.I.P)

Garlic also from G.I.P.
Wish I had the whole bed planted with this! They seem like they are doing awesome, I've never grown garlic before though.

If anyone needs any plants hit me up. They have fungus gnats and whatever else they may have picked up outside. Just pay shipping and you can have some. Ill never get them all planted. I thought about laying tarps down to kill grass and just no-till planting. I don't know when the ground will be dry enough to rototil. Next year I will till as soon as the ground thaws out lol.

I still need to figure out a way to plant some cucumbers too, cause I need pickles.

PtMD989 · May 26, 2019

That sucks about your garden land. We got hit with some monsoon rain Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Roads washed out all over the county. My raised beds seem to drain good and plus the are on my high ground.

Luckily these last couple storms weren't as bad as they thought they were gonna be.

stc3248 · May 26, 2019

Best of luck getting them in the ground Andy!

Seems like it's been either too wet or too dry here lately..

Walchit · May 26, 2019

I should have probably tried to plant some today, but I feel like packing mud back in around the plants can't be the best transplant option. Lol

Devv · May 26, 2019

maybe these guys can till it for ya!
