Hey brother! Looking good dude! stuffs all gone eh?bummer lol, ell ya got the extra rich pre blended top coating turned in well and what might work for you too is a lightly atered slurry in to place..maybe three if its mellow ith a tea n coating.three way hit kept mellow really does it.trace one side,foods the others and a balanced feed(Tea) imo is great but a lotta effort lol! Tea n coating should do ya fine if it works fast enough.try a heavy silted tea spike maybe added to a slurry.eh,just brainstorming lol! really saved my backside once!!hitr it ith a very small squirt of kelp foliar to a cpl leaf pieces n watch em turn nice n happy for a minute lol!

remember my damn W button is seriously fixing to martyr itself anyday now lol!
 
Cheers Wax... EOF.... I've added a little kelp and tlo to the top dressing and am preparing some tea with mycoz.. fingers crossed..:pass:
 
What size containers are you using for those ladies Duggy? Just trying to brainstorm with you a little but when I started doing a lot of research on TLO/Supersoil/Total Nutrients it was very apparent that the larger the container size the easier the grow. I am guessing one had to do with the buffering ability, more soil=more buffer but the other is most assuredly the microbe life. The larger the container, the easier it is to keep the microbes alive. Less waterings, less feedings with teas, etc. I look at it kind of like my fish tanks as they both seem to apply equally. I see so many people buy smaller fish tanks because they think it will be easier to keep only one or two fish when it reality, it takes a very experienced person to keep fish alive in smaller tanks for extended periods of time. There is always something to tweak and if it isn't done almost immediately then the fish suffer.

Just my ramblings for the day but I do believe it much easier to grow in the larger containers, even if you have one gigantic container and plant several plants in the same container. Wishing you much success!

Cheers A4... the pots are 15L but as recommended with the autopots I use 50% perlite which stops waterlogging with the wick system...leaves only 7.5L soil...Planning to try 33% perlite which will give me 10L soil. Also planning to use a stronger fish based compost for the mix along with some proper kelp meal... Although my pH readings seemed fine I still have concerns..just not validated..thankfully the plants will still finish ok but I can certainly improve..
Thanks...:Sharing One:
 
thats why i prefer #5 pots or bigger and really dont suggest air pots either.large cloth pots seem ok but smaller ones will dry and dampen your growth substantially imo.i personally use less perlite than that too cuz of the moisture and how dense you soil is is directly related to how well its going to do too imo.
