2026 Indoor Garden
To the starting soil the following organic amendment blend added:
-
Worm Castings: An essential amendment that provides a slow-release source of nitrogen and introduces beneficial bacteria.
-
Kelp Meal: Excellent for potassium and micronutrients, promoting microbial diversity.
-
Bat Guano: High in nitrogen and phosphorus, ideal for sustained plant growth and blooming.
-
Bone Meal: A slow-release source of phosphorus, which is crucial for root development and flowering.
-
Dolomite Lime: A must-have for raising soil pH to the optimal 6.0Γ’β¬β7.0 range while adding calcium and magnesium.
-
Mycorrhizal Inoculant: Increases root surface area, enabling better nutrient and water absorption.
Planned nutrient feed and 3 gallon grow bags

Germination Method/Rate
Paper towel 3 seeds Spring Water - 9 days no sprout. 0% germination
Soak 7 seeds 14 hours, Spring water/1% peroxide. Sow into 2 oz cups/Happy Frog soil.
Staggered germination 3 - 5 days. Five plants 3 normal, 2 mutations. 75% germination
June 13th 2026 - Start Seedling Program.
Move sprouts into garden. Soil Ph test 1:1 soil to distilled water, wait 24 hours, strain, test with meter. Soil was collected dry. In this case the organic soil ammendments show 6.4 Ph.
Damping soil in preparation for transplant runoff water still showed 6.4. Only concern is soil might be βhotβ.
Humidifier Settings: Fan Speed 10, % VPD 1.60, Temperature 82 ΒΊF
Plan is 3 plant grow. However the mutations will be cared for until normal growth begins.
Mutations
June 19, 2026 - Five plants transplanted to final containers. One liter ph adjusted well water with 3.5 ml big bloom added. Applied around plant drip ring.
On June 22, 2026 - plants appear to be adjusted and it does not appear soil is too βhot.β
Dok Rak (flower of love) now call ThΓͺΔ pΔd (duck foot) 'fraid to come out
Churai (good heart) will be kept as the third plant for this experiment.
The two well-adjusted plants
July 4, 2026, Start Growth Program.
As planned three plants selected
Off to the races . . .
