@Ted Massey Hey Ted! Sorry for the lack of comms, been busy on my end! I started adding cow manure to my plants every 2 weeks followed with a heavy watering and started a drip of 0.5 GPH (Gallons per hour) every morning for roughly 30 mins to an hour. I’ve seen tremendous results. I’m having trouble with my lavender, but my California Poppies are growing like crazy! I have my lavender sharing the pot so that’s probably the issue. They seem to be very selfish plants and sort of fragile at a young stage. I’ll keep you updated when I transplant it into its own pot.

@Ted Massey right on! Sounds like you have it figured out! I need to add more nitrates to mine! And drip systems are so convenient! I have I sprinkler at 3 GPH for 4 tomatoes with 2 additional .5 GPH drip into two PVC pipes I placed into the soil. It works great! I run all my plants at .5 GPH and they love it! But I’m also having difficulty with my lavender so I’ll have to figure that out.

@Ted Massey oh awesome, I’m glad that worked well for you! its dry and hot where I’m at, so alot of vegetables need shade screens. I ran into that problem with my tomatoes. The sun would dry them out. Did you add anything to your soil before planting? I.e. nitrates?

03OG! Me and my brother used to follow you on instagram (we deleted ours). my brother used to be an ultra marathon runner till I convinced him to pick up the weights. We both used to compete against eachother in the corps (family competition). He was a 29 stumps Marine and I was at glorious Pendleton. Now we weigh the same (180 lbs) and are neck and neck with lifts. Hes totaling at 1100 and I’m at 1000. Just wanted to show my appreciation for your influence. What sort of reps/sets work for you to increase numbers?

@Ted Massey This was awesome following! I dabble a bit in gardening, I grew up farming but its very different on the smaller scale with multiple crops. I’m from Sacramento area of California. I usually like to use a shade cloth to break up the sunlight. You don’t seem to be having an issue with direct sunlight though. Have you thought about using one or do you actually have clouds? haha
