Pete's Outdoor Run
Ahoya
So I thought it would be better to keep a journal in this section. I started in the " Introduce yourself " section.
Here is the link to that.

Time is coming very close to where I'm moving the plants outdoors. My day consisted of the waking up early with that excited feeling of knowing your getting something today. So after waking up 3 1/2 hours to early I decided to wake and bake to a unknown but OG KUSH dominant lady. And DAMN was that fun.
Time passed quick after that cause the mind started working again and I started doing shit. But when all was done we set off to go buy some compost. Now before I go any further I just have have to give a quick info on the compost
COMPOST:
The Uncle who makes it has been doing it for 30 years. I have worked with the compost before ( in another garden ) and it is a beautifull compost. I asked the uncle if it is suited for container planting cause I'm growing tomatoes in 25L pots and he said it is perfect. He has been doing it for 30 years ( container planting ). He said to only add 30% sand and it s perfect. The bags that were used to fill the compost with is 50kg salt bags. So I got 8.
Anyway, back to the story... We loaded the car with the bags and the car was hanging quite a bit. The reason I got 8 was mainly because I have 6 x 25L pots , 3 x 15L pots and 2 x 12L pots to fill. I reckoned 6 should cover all of that easily and the rest I can just add to my current compost pile and use some of it in the garden. So of we went. And after getting home I 1st had to cut the grass that looked like a fucking jungle. Which isn't that bad actually, because I use the cut grass in the compost heap. I try and re-use everything. So I took out 1 bag of compost and pulled my daughter's plastic swimming pool closer, dumped the bag out, fetched the bag of perlite, got some Volcanic Rock Dust and set off to mix it all together. It looked like quite a bit of soil but I thought nothing off it. I pulled my pots closer and after filling 5 x 25L and 1 x 15L I saw that the soil was finished. I mixed up half a bag of compost to fill the rest and I was DONE. 1 and a half bags only. LOL, now I have plenty compost left to play with and tomorrow I am getting cardboard boxes to use a mulck layer in the garden to kill the grass. And now I have beautiful mulch layer !!! 8 was a certain overkill, but I just thought now that I want to take 2 bags and ey them out and add a shit load of different organic amendments to it. Was thinking off introducing some compost from a pine mulch to add micro...... Can't remember the full name. Sorry. Maybe get some seaweed and chop that up good, VRD, Gypsym, Worm Casting, Vermiculite, perlite, coco coir and whatver I can manage to get hold of. I will mix that all together and then I'll water it all down with a Guano / Worm Tea feed. Let that stand for a couple of days in the sun to dry out a bit, pop that into the empty bags and store it away. Anything from 6 months to a year. That just sounds good. Do you guys think I can add some red wigglers in there and will they survive ???
Love and Light
Pete
