Started growing last year and have made some drastic changes since I began. Wanted to turn the page and start a new journal.
Began with soil moved to coco coir. Began with synthetic nutes moved to organic slow release dry amendments. Started with perpetual grow 2 tents and moved to scrogging a flower and only vegging in the small 2x4 tent (might start running a auto garden with my photos in 4x4) Started with bag seeds and lesser seed banks and now using only ILGM genetics.
Have two tents going currently one almost ready to flip and the other just transplanted from solo cups to 5gallon smart pots. Coco with dry ph around 6.7 for all calmag only synthetic nutes. Dr. Earth dry amendments mykos and azos. Just ph dechlorinated water and water when dry
Added the second scrog net per @peachfuzz suggestion. Not the most secure thing I’ve ever built but I think it’ll get the job done for this run. I’ll redo it before the next with t’s placed next to every corner on bottom and top so I can secure with 6 inch sections of pvc.
Skywalker OG on the left Gelato on the right. Actually had a half bag of happy frog so used that as my preloaded part of coco along with perlite and worm castings. Will amend in a week or two but these girls are happy and shooting up so they get just water for now and a little cal mag
Nice, clean setup. One suggestion would be to raise your cloth bags so they don’t sit in any runoff that occurs. The runoff will tend to get wicked back up into the soil/plant causing possible pH and TDS issues plus salt build up.
Thanks for the suggestion - do you guys have any pics?
Is it the same concern since I’m using dry amendments? Didn’t think you want to water til runoff with dry organic since I’m feeding microbial life vs plants them selves… have just been watering enough to keep them happy and healthy so no runoff at all.
The girls are looking extremely happy and healthy. I’m really glad I switched to living soil. Makes my life way easier only thing I’m adding to watering is recharge and azos for benificial bacteria colonies.
They’re really jumping every day - took a beach trip so having to ask my best friend to swing by and water for me. A little nerve racking can’t wait to see my babies when I return:see_no_evil: 28 as of today
Finished with 7.5oz dry Bruce banner and 8.5oz dry of gsce capped off with a BOM Dec win for the GSCE. Very happy with the results gsce is fantastic will definitely run again soon
Went with 10g pots this time can tell the difference much larger plants. This one fills out a 4x4 much better than last run with 5g (probably 3x3) so making this change permanent
