It always feels great when a grow comes to an end :grin: Those 2 should put a smile on your face and you are smoking them into oblivion :grin:

Holiday has my dremel bit lagging bad. Going to h-depot to get stuff for other home projects. Floating out some walls and painting. Will get a smaller wire wall shelf to put ballast on for better cooling. I hope everyone enjoys the holiday :+1:

The 2 in solos are in dirt to give my bro and there are 2 gg4 in the sweatbox.
Got my dremel cutting bit today and installed the drain. I will be putting a 5gal bucket under that drain with a spare 27gal container to deal with any malfunctions. Got some shelves put up as well. Obviously one side is battery charging area. Other side is propagation station with spare(eventually mother)lights wrapped in cardboard hanging below. They are just 100w amazon Chinese but will tend one mother per light well enough I think

Starting to get hot in the south so ac is running a lot and drying out the air. With a humidifier I’m able to keep numbers between 50-60rh and temps 71-73°F. Not perfect but close enough to work.

Well I’m up and running. Feeding twice a day, bumping it up 50 or so ppm per day. I have soda bottles over the top of them to keep the rh up. Looking good so far.

Kay-sow.
I went into solo cups 8 days ago tonight. These are sacrificial freebie gg4’s
to dial back into coco…the only REAL canna-success I’ve ever had.
As the reader is aware, i am still using Jacks, but have switched to brick coco/30+%perlite, from soil. I rehydrate and double calmag buffer.
I am feeding at lowish 800’s EC, twice a day, with plenty(30+% container volume) runoff. I am done with anything ppm, it is now all EC. I know it is different math measuring the same thing but I’m EC guy now.
My nutes are jacks mixed at 4/2 per the indomitable @OGIncognito. I KNOW he’s gonna tell me I dont need the calmag im about to tell you is in muh recipe but that coco demands it’s vig.
To get to aprox 2ec, to be diluted down to what I want because NER matters A LOT regardless of “strength.”
I do(per gal) .5/1mil dynagrow silica, 2/2.5mil cali-magic, 4g A and 2g B, 3-5mil liquid yucca wetter, and 1/1.5mil TPS root stimulant, after i have set pH to 5.8-6.0
Please reply with all criticism and suggestions because I value the knowledge here. The ppl here are top notch. Love y’alls vibe.
Lights are off now, I promise to take natural light pics on morning drench.

9 days from sprout

The one is a lil wonky because I started her too hard too soon on nutes. If she doesn’t straighten out soon she will be culled. NO WEAKLINGS ALLOWED in my garden!

I will offer my O2 :grin: if you are feeding with Jack’s. There really is no need to buffer the coco. The Jack’s or any nutes will do that as you start feeding more and more. I have only buffered a few plants with no difference in those with or with out buffering. I have only been in coco. And use bricks and Vermiculite. I started with perlite. The roots stick to it. making the cleaning to re use the coco more work. I will try to pay close attention here as I am always up to learn more. I use the standard Jack’s recipe. I have to have the epsom or have issues once I go to flower.
I do see a lot that have good luck with out it. My plants never want to be normal LOL
You are off to a great start there :+1:
