I didn’t notice the Acid rain before. I will be interested in seeing how that one grows. I hope to get that one in sooner than later. Your little ones are doing great for you. :+1:

Acid rain took off the fastest. I slowed them down a tad while they waited on me to get my soil together. They had a light feed of thrive N so we should see a better shade of green shortly :wink: it’s kinda weird with me being used to growing autos and being careful not to stunt them or send them into flower to early. I’m loving growing photos. I can get away with a lot more during veg :joy:

Good to know. I just lost a GL. I may replace it with one of these :grin:

The girls today. I was hoping for a little better color but I’m probably being impatient as usual.

Cherries Jubilee is my only pretty girl right now

Gold leaf has contorted leaves and pale spots

I’m not liking the looks of her leaf edges either.

Acid Rain is pale with some dark grey spots developing. She has that over watered look to her.

I think I’ll order them some recharge. I read the above post back to myself and I swear it sounded like Eeyore in my head :joy:

Happy Sunday everyone :v::green_heart:

The photo tent has Acid Rain, Cherries Jubilee and Bergman’s Gold Leaf

They are in living soil. Under the QB 120’s turned down of course and 30" away. Temps 68 at night and 70-73 daytime, RH 60% I added worms to the soil yesterday and they had they’re first full feed yesterday. Top dress with Kashi blend and craft blend. In well water I added aloe vera flakes, sledgehammer (yucca), recharge, silica, Thrive.N and Big 6 micros. CRAP it just hit me, I totally forgot the Epsom salts :open_mouth: I won’t forget next time it’s written down now. I’ll give them a foliar feed before lights on in the morning. Their month long solo cup days are showing but the new growth looks great on everyone except the GL. I’m really needing to top Acid Rain but I think I’ll give her a few more days before I do. I’m a little nervous about it.

Acid Rain

Cherries Jubilee

Bergman’s Gold Leaf

They’re all in the same dirt and received the same water/feed so idk what GL wants. To my inexperienced eyes, I see clawing but no dark green. I need to learn to read them better. Until then, I feel sorry for @Budbrother and my constantly sending him pics and asking a million questions :grin: Thank you though, your a plant saver and a nerve calmer and you are very appreciated. Watering will also be a challenge since I’m used to Happy Frog soil in 5 gallon pots. I can pick them up and know when they need water. I also put my fingers in to verify…not so easy with 15 gallons of living soil. I need to keep it moist and not let it dry out…hey did ya know moist is one of the most disliked words in the English language? I heard that the other day. Idk where I heard it, maybe the radio? so I can’t say it’s a for sure fact. Sorry, I got off topic. Well, I suppose that’s about it. Let’s hope I can keep these girls alive. Have a wonderful Sunday everyone :v::green_heart:

I’m always happy to smoke with you and figure shit out. I go where and when I’m needed.

Looking good Jewels! I’m interested to see how three plants in one pot with living soil works.

They’re looking Good Jewels! so many variables and inherent strain characteristics but once they get going (which they seem like they’re about there) it gets less anxious, at least that’s how I look at it.

So they’re all in a 7 gallon pot? and what was the reason you planted them all in one pot? have been curious about that :grin: :v:

Thanks @Mote :smiling_face: that AR has really shot up. She needs topped and some training.
It’s a 30 gallon pot with 15 gallons of soil.

Well, I can only fit one 30 gallon pot in my tent :crazy_face:
Wiith living soil, bigger is better. As I add layers the volume will build. My next run will be with 3-7 gallon pots of living soil and eventually I’ll get another 30 gallon pot for my other tent.aybe some day I’ll get that 3rd tent up and running. It’s hard to resist :sweat_smile: especially with so many strains I want to try.

Yep, we can all relate to that :grin: but we gotta do what we gotta do to sample as many strains as possible till some dispensaries open up in our respective hoods :joy:

30 Gallons! Damn thats a lot of soil, I’d be cringing at the prospect of a flush w those numbers.
Very interesting though, really curious to see how they develop in this format :+1: :rocket: :partying_face:

With the mulch on top it really retains the moisture and I don’t have to water nearly as much when I first started without using mulch. Gone a week or more before having to water.

Did those lower leaves look that way before transplanting into 30 gallon pot?
Hate to say it and hope it’s not but you may want to check real close for bugs with the random dots I’m seeing.


Gently remove one of those spotty leaves and flip over place on table and look with a loop.
Hope it’s something else

Yes they started looking rough after their 4th week in the solo cups. At that time I gave them microbes brew and Big Bloom while I awaited my build a soil. Budbrother mailed me some theive-n they had one dose while in solo cups. Once I got everything together I transplanted. The new growth after transplant started looking good on AR. Gold leaf, not so much :thinking: I’m heading down to check now though. I’ll be able to tell. I’ve been spotting bugs my whole life :joy: thanks @Skydiver :v::green_heart: I’ll let ya know

I’m pretty sure these spots are soil from turning them upside down out of their solo cups. They will be getting a foliar feed with Epsom salt in the morning, a couple hours before lights on. If the brown specks wash off I’ll know it was soil and I’ll be able to get a better look. I’ll be keeping watch.

Good news is, I see no movement at all. I’ll keep an eye on them for sure.

What do you guys think of this? @Budbrother @Skydiver @Big123 I use it in my house plants and on my lilac bush that had scales. Looks to be ok to use with living soil. Y’all would know best :wink:

Water it in, Wipes em out™
SNS-209™ provides a barrier for plants to protect them against damaging insects. The SNS-209™ barrier is harmless to the plant but distasteful to mites and other insects.
SNS-209™ Systemic Insect Control is made up of 100% pure botanical extracts that are highly water soluble. The botanical extracts are all food grade GRAS (generally recognized as safe) materials.
SNS-209™ Systemic Insect Control is exempt from EPA registration under minimum risk pesticide exempted under FIFRA section 25(b).

How it Works:
Spider mites, White flies, Nematodes, Scales and other insects destroy plant cells by sucking out their fluids or chewing up the cell walls. SNS-209™’s unique formula works by allowing the plant to uptake a small amount of rosemeric acid from the rosemary plant. As the plant distributes the rosemeric acid throughout its cell walls, a barrier is soon constructed. When an insect starts to suck or chew on the plant it comes in contact with the rosemeric acid and causes the insect to stop eating and move on.

Uses:
SNS-209™ Systemic Insect Control can be used on a wide variety of plants, vegetables, and even trees. SNS-209™ Systemic Insect Control can be used on fruits, vegetables, and plants including apples, apricots, beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, cherries, chives, corn, cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, parsley, fuchsia, roses, flowers, houseplants, etc.

Directions for Use:
Add ½ TBSP (1/4 ounce) of concentrate per 1 gallon of water every time you water or fertilize. May use in your reservoir in conjunction with nutrients. You can use it daily or every few days. It takes about 1-2 weeks to start working and will continue to work for up to 3 weeks. Once you notice it starting to work, discontinue use. Reapply every 14-28 days as needed. Over usage may cause leaf curling and it’s a waste of product and money.

Advantages
The first advantage is long term control. A foliar application of an insecticide is constantly exposed to the elements. Rainfall, irrigation and sunlight all play a part in the dilution of the insecticide. A systemic product is protected by the elements because it remains inside the plant’s leaves, stems or blades.
The second advantage of systemic insecticides over conventional insecticides is that the entire plant is protected from attack by insects, grubs, mites. Root systems, stems and leaf portions of the plant all contain a small amount of SNS-209™, not just the leaf surface.
