New year, New patch. This off season i have been working on several things. Building the soil structure in the new patch. I have brought in 32 total yards of compost for what will be approximately 7,200 sqft patch. I plan to grow 6 competition plants and 1-2 small sqft plants for pollination/ genetic crosses. This year the patch is very close to the house and will have full sun all day. I will be using city water instead of my spring water. This is virgin soil so it will not be 100% dialed in but if I can get it to 75-80% I will be happy.

Finished my DIY venturi fertilizer injector. Tested it and it works perfectly. Very happy with the way it came out and the adjustability it will give me this year.
