Worms! They’re finally here! We’re feeding them vegetable scraps, banana peels, brown rice, coffee and tea grounds and shredded paper. Still have to figure out how much to feed them. We added some coco and perlite to aerate a little, plus it evidently adds carbon to the mix. Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm folks are great to deal with and we’re so happy we’re doing this! You can devise your own system, but this was not expensive and it will be well worth the investment when we can use the worm castings and tea!



And now for the ladies!

And a shot of the grow..

The plants are nearing the end of their flower cycle..looks like Pennywise is first..autumning off now. LED lighting is expensive..there’s no doubt about that, but it’s worth the cost because the plants grow so well under them, particularly with resin production. We use Lush Lighting’s Dominator XL series. Now they have a new version with even more lights in them. Well worth the investment, no matter what you’re growing. LEDs provide a greater spectrum of light than HPS or any other light and the plants respond to it. And, it’s a lesser footprint carbonwise, so it’s a win/win. And with genetics from TGA Genetics SubCool Seeds, you can’t go wrong!

Until next Friday..happy gardening!
