Thanks brother! I needed that. I gotta go face this procedure Tuesday and been trying everyway in the world to talk myself out of it, but… I know I can’t. My kids and wife deserve better and this is part of that process so in my best redneck I gotta get r done. Lol Ive come to realize that we cant fix nuthin that if we dont admit its broken. I’ve sucked it up and pushed thru the pain for a good 15 years. And thats got me nowhere but in alot more pain so I decided to strike a lighter and watch that old life burn. Im now on a mission or have been for a year or so to get healthy. Mind, body, and soul. I keep pushing thats all i can do. Girls are doing good. I got one big pot running around 700 ppms the other sitting around 1000. I just gave the 700 pot a tablespoon of blackstrap in enough water to tone it down to about 400 ppms. Wanted to wait till tomorrow to slurry it and see of it helps my limey problem.
Are the temps averaging around low 60’s - mid 70’s ? How have you been watering and feeding ? Nutrients from the bottom , plain ph water through the dirt ?
If memory serves me blackstrap is potassium right?
I fed it from the top. Its the big dang bags i cant figure out how to let it suck it up yet. Almost got it though.
You want about 1 - 2 % potassium going to help the rootzone get stronger and about 1 -2% of phosphorus with about 3-7% nitrogen 3% calmag and 3%grow and 1% micro so the N.P.K. should be 3-3-1 or 3-2-1 of even 3-3-1 is good just depends on strain genetics , lights , dirt ph and ppm with temp humidity and co2 that will get them on a mission !
Thanks yoshi brother, whats a good ole source for some p?
Azomite is perfect week 3 of flower add a tablesppon to the soil and week 5 add a tablespoon and a half and get ready for the gas !
Thank you!
My autos are in about their 5 week of flower. Do they look okay? They seem to be much denser than anything ive grown before. Is it just the leds vs sunlight. Or better control of enviroment in general?
Both, more than likely. Sun will do amazing things but only on its schedule. Genetics may also play a role - you prolly got some good ones this go around, so add in a nice tightly controlled environment & good growing habits, you’ve got some rocks growin’
I wish id ask about it sooner, i did add a pinch or two of dolomite to them a few weeks ago. Maybe itll help some? I ordered a bag of azomite hopefully be here for when my big girls get there.
Brother you killing it , @VaHillbilly you got to this just from reading
in several journals and applying the information to the best of your abilities in comprehending how less is best and how it works
, brother it wont be long you will be able to celebrate
. The only move you need now is more light power and you will do great are run you veg time ibto your screen for at least 2 weeks before you flip next grow . Get the screen almost full and you will triple your return . But that purple is pretty aint it , let me share a lil wisdon with you , anything iut of your hands of control , just let it go and focus on what you can and be the best at it and you be just fine .
Ive still not flipped yet brother. Those 3 in front are autoflowers. Thank ya though im kinda fond of that purple one too. He he he.
And thanks for the confidence in me. Theres alot of information out there and finding someone you can trust to nudge you in the right direction is AWESOME!!!
Thank ya @Graysin, do the beans from here vary in quality much? Ive only grown their White Widow and now GG#4. I got a few packs of their California Dream patiently waiting.lol
Not in quality but in phenotype, they certainly can. That’s sort of just the nature of the beast with autoflowers though. They’ll be similar but different unless the breeder went way out of their way to isolate one particular phenotype, but honestly most breeders and seed banks won’t do that because people are looking for different things in their strains. Better for them if you can grow 3 blue dreams and end up with a couple different phenotypes.
They’re generally all good quality beans, but may manifest differently as they grow.
54.3% yes on Recreational for November on the Ballot , i hope they let it be fair for those who want or can grow they own from home .
When its finalized , I hope to have this new light thing figured out cause I would be dialing a room in for sure .
Help!!! Where did all these tops come from??? Its like an episode of Girls gone wild in my basement…lol
What a terrible problem to have.
Always trying to keep up with industry new products just trying to keep up , and i think have found a new way in growing , just have to put it action and do my experiment process but i think this can revolutionize a garden performance with minimal efforts for the old battered and bruise to keep good gerbs growing for a good medicine later . Gotta get the buikd team rallyed up and get this thing designed and patton !
