>>1014172gonna test after flushing a couple times, i tried 4 samples just now but these rapitest tab kits are historically variable for me so im never sure. 4 tests resulted in 5/6/6/7, they were fertilized yesterday tho. the regular SBs were p.deficient of phosphorus before i transplanted them out of the ground, the alpines came from stock i babied without issues
for reference i use dynagro FP fert(9-3-6?) every other watering on container plants, maint dose on the bottle specifies 1/4tsp to a gallon but ive been feeding half of that since potting them. they looked hella sad on top of heavy root pruning so im hoping they appreciate the lighter feeding :(
[rant-ish warning]absolutely agree on planter though, kinda splitting hairs at this point trying to establish SBs for the folk(pop "knows his shit" in gardening lol) which in itself is fucking silly considering how weed-y they are. 1st year: in-ground with constant dog trampling. 2nd year: re-located to another in-ground spot that floods(???). ideally i'd like one of their raised beds bordered off so a portion can be permanent SBs, OR a nice wide long planter. he likes neither of those options so i made them the Thing You Always See Strawberries In! i dont mind checking in on the challenges that come with that design, ultimately its about getting some thick-headed minds(i love) some tasty healthy SBs so whatever it takes
really though, between SBs runners going everywhere and potting mixes requiring bi-yearly maint these tower designs are more PITA than plants need to be
>>1014391>>1014394are these tomato plants? man please mound up more soil and take them off sun punishment
>>1014413if you're serious you struck homeowner silver, gold would be mature avocado i think. fresh figs are a bitch to get @ a fair price without buying a crate
