Here's a closer shot of the 5 gallon bucket of warm water and the 584.2 Frei. I've got the wireless temperature sensor set up and the soil thermometer (a.k.a. digital meat thermometer) is in the ground. The soil seems to be quite a bit cooler than the ambient temperature. But, everything seems to be going well at the moment. So, I am not planning on monkeying with anything for a couple of days.

One thing that you may be able to see in this photo is the seaweed that I put on a couple of days ago. The mushed up seaweed actually spread out and dried around the stem. It has formed a bit of a layer around the top of the mound. I should probably break this up. But, I don't want to disturb any nearby roots. So, I'll wait until the next watering. That should soften up the seaweed skin. Then I can mix it in a bit with the surrounding soil and mushroom compost.
