My daughter and her Pumpkin Display. A bit windy today but man what a Beautiful sky. Drench Fed 10 Gal. EA. of Calcium, Humic seperatly at 30 minute pauses at 104 temp yesterday evening and Foliar Sprayed 0-0-50 and Fast absorbing Calcium at 104 Temp at 5:30 am this morning for the last time of this season on the 1308 Barenie. The late evening drenches I've slowly learned are better because of the strong desire for the roots too take up close to 9 times more nutrients during the nighttime period and naturally the Stoma pores opening wider during the sunlight hours on the leaves for Foliar Spraying with Co2 in addition. I am going to research this entire fall and winter on stimulation terms and stimulation applications to increase widening of the "Gaurding" pores adjacent to the "Stomas" on the leaf surface that take the nutrients in. I have also been studying where millivolt electrical stimulation of the Plant itself increases opening size of the pores and allows the plant to take in more micro nutrients during folior spraying thus allowing more growth of fruit. 1308 Barenie is still packing on weight and if I don't split er I will cut her loose and load her up next Saturday evening..Bengstons or Bust.
