Veg Week 5 – Growth and Care
Period: May 10th to May 17th
In the fifth week, I let the King Juice continue to grow and spread out across the area. The plant is getting denser and wider — a real bushy marvel! The cover crop is also spreading under and alongside the King Juice, creating a lively green carpet.
For aesthetics and ecological balance in the grow box, I left one plant standing in the right corner — just for the eye and the environment, following the motto "It can't hurt."
Additionally, I diluted EM1 microorganisms with water and watered with a total of 4 liters to boost the microbial life in the substrate and further stimulate soil activity.
It’s simply a joy to look into the box and watch the plants grow bigger and bigger.
Towards the end of the week, I thinned out and defoliated the King Juice, so it now looks a bit wild and ragged — but that’s part of the care to allow more light and air inside the plant.
Unfortunately, I had to remove the ivy that was standing in the left corner because it didn’t fit well into the environment and didn’t harmonize optimally with the other plants.
