Well nutes were delayed again in delivery. They promise it’ll be here by Saturday at the latest but UPS has done bumped it a few times now. It left from Ohio. Not sure what the deal is as I have had other UPS packages ordered and delivered since the , delays are expected but this is insane.
was only able to get my hands on a line of nutes locally called Down to Earth all purpose fert and a quart of their micronutrient as well. They’re 4-1-3 and 2-0-1 respectively. The crisis has hit other local growers and gardeners the same as myself I’m sure hence the limited inventories in several shops.
couldnt figure out what to do as far as dosage so I just tried to get them to the same EC i had with the canna line. I did 10 mls of each for 2 gallons as well as 1.5ml calcium.This combo got me to my 550 tds I have been working with but it shot my pH down to 3.8 and my pH is generally 7.8 so that was different.
Thankfully I had pH up on hand so added 7ml to 2 gallons and got the pH up to 6.1 keeping the TDS roughly in the same zone as previous.
Watering was insane. The 2 shorter ones were thirstier for sure as it’ had been over 24 hours since last feed/water and the NCH was definitely drinking it’s own as well but none of them compared to the thirst of the MS. She is so big and a heavy drinker that she ended up taking an entire gallon on her own. Worried that she may have dried out too much but now also worried about whatever this combo of feed I’ve done.
im halfway certain I’m going to see them dead in the next 2-3 days so it’s whatever. If I come out unscathed it’ll be a blessing. Lesson learned here is always have extra nutes on hand. Didn’t really anticipate for corona happening and I had no idea how much nutrients I was going to use over time so just more learning moments but fuck a duck if I’m not pissy over it.
