Dutch Passion 7 DP Think Different Skrog

[rossmunford]

Hey AFN, So this is my first journal on this site, hope to get some followers.

First off, im tryin to accomplish the skrog that Hazy did on the Dutch Passion website, I was so blown away by that grow I have to try it out.

What im using is.
2 - 1000W HPS XXXXL Hoods.


Dr Earth Soil, I added perlite myself - http://drearth.net/blog/products/organic-soils/motherland-all-purpose-planting-mix/

4 plants will be in 5 gallon smart pots. 3 plants will be in 10 gallon pots.

Ill be using the fox farm nutes, doin a very light feeding of micro brew which just helps establish a good root zone for the girls. Ill start feeding them other stuff in about 4 weeks, from my understanding, you dont really need to feed these girls to often or heavy.

Here is one little pic of them all, nothing to big right now ha, they sprouted on 3/21/13.

Im just doin HPS, Dont have the money quite yet for MH Bulbs yet. I have my grow room at a steady 75 degrees, and usually drop it down to 55-60 to bring out the color of the plants during flower with lights off. I wasnt aware that you could put epsom salts and potash in the soil, what are the benefits of this? The only thing I added was perlite, the soil already has these ingridents in the soil, "We only use Forest Humus, Fir Bark, Peat Moss, Worm Castings, Alfalfa Meal, Kelp Meal, Soybean Meal, Fish Meal, Fish Bone Meal, MicroActive™ Seaweed Extract, Aloe Vera, Yucca Extract and Oyster Shell & Dolomite Limes. We have also included Probiotic® beneficial soil Microbes plus both Ecto and Endo Mycorrhizae."

Also, ill be putting them in 8x8 treys, that way I can flush the plants when the time comes for harvest. Ill take more pics of my whole set up. I dont have the netting up at the moment, ill put the nets up to start skrogging once they get a bit bigger. Not quite sure how high I should put the nets from the top of the pots

M's..........think you got enough additives in your medium dudes !!............NPK are "Monomeric Units"...........the ones that count, and that are limited, are P,K, as N is found every where and is un-limiting, and indigenous.. All the products below break down in "Slow" but differing volumes to availability. The key to "Canna" is it's fast release Action potential. While the rest wait to break down in soil, (Slow Oxidation), canna gives it direct into the vein !! through a well drained medium, oxygenated well.............AB........
