Ok gotta start out by blaming @Son of Hobbes Ever since the raffles got added I’ve been more focused on trying to remember to enter every hour and totally forgot to update the ladies! Man how they’ve grown too!

They got so big and bushy I had no way to climb into tent but once they outgrew the light I had to take drastic steps and disconnect 1 of the pots from the drip line to pull it so I could climb inside!

Before giving them another manicure!

My wonky lil strawberry chemdawg! She grew outta that mutant nonsense but by then the others were so huge she has literally been growing in the shadows in the back corner of tent! Still chugging along tho!

Big sister strawberry chemdawg! This is at 14 days since they got 12/12!

U can see the lil one in timeout in da corner!

Younger Black Lebanon (by 5 or so days)

She was the one that grew thru the light so needed to bend a few necks to make sure had room between them and light once I raised it!

Older BL (39 days old at flip)

Had to order a replacement power cord for my dehumidifier cuz just my exhaust fan isn’t enough to keep rh where I want it for vpd! Darn cord got delayed in transit tho so been waiting 5 days! Says expected today now tho so we’ll see! Didn’t feed anything but water and slf100 during veg but since flip been adding the knf regimen once a week! Hoping they green back up some but if not may need to swap to using the GLB stuff! Was hoping to use on the plants in 2x4 so could do during veg too but we’ll see how these progress! When not under grow light really only front left is looking light green like she’s needing a pick me up!

Hey @Mañ'O'Green I got a question for ya! With the knf feeds I’ve been giving them just added the water soluble calcium in last feed but I wanna swap it out for something with a bit more predictability I’m what I’m dosing them so if I swap to that solution grade gypsum how much do I use per gallon? Figured I’d stay at same once a week knf calls for unless u suggest otherwise! Be using it with RO so usually 5-15ppm so I obv need to supply all the Ca!
Thanks buddy!

Hey @Mañ'O'Green did u see that last message? Thx

 

[Fermented_Fruitz]

Ok time for an update! I really been slacking here! The black Lebanon have gotten so huge it’s difficult to even get my arm in for a blind attempt at photos of strawberry chemdawg so takes unzipping the entire sidewall and moving my bedside table and stuff to get pics and as u can imagine with a stoner it’s tough getting up enough motivation to do all that!

Strawberry chemdawg #1

Strawberry chemdawg #2 (stretch Armstrong from the shadows)

Black Lebanon #1

Black Lebanon #2 :drool:

Strawberry ladies are almost done in comparison to the BL so I’ll be keeping better updates on them going forward!

1g of Solution Grade Gypsum in 1 Gallon of water provides 110 PPM calcium and 35 PPM of Sulfur. Do not exceed 550 PPM calcium because it will fall out of solution at higher rates. I mean you really would never need that much it is just FYI.

Thanks a bunch man ordering it now! Using RO water I need to stop forgetting they are getting no Ca or Mg til the stuffs added in bloom and obv by then it’s usually well past time so need to start giving it both to them during veg rather then waiting til it’s time that they are deficient before giving it to them! I spent 1st 2.25 years of my growing using earthbox and topdressing so just getting used to using liquid stuff to manually feed them!

How often should I add that calcium once a week? And also should I start it during veg like I was just saying? If yes should it still be at that rate or maybe a lower dose til preflower starts?

Thanks for the pointers bud! U da man!

Almost forgot but wasn’t it like 1tsp per gallon u said to use for epsom?

I don't grow in soil so your fertigation schedule is something you will need to work out on your own. Remember don't feed single elements always mix up a balanced nutrients mix to feed.

1g Epsom Salt = 40 PPM Mg and 60 PPM Sulfur in 1 gal. water.

You MUST add the gypsum LAST to your nutrient mix after everything else is well dissolved.

@Fermented_Fruitz this thread is what I remember seeing and I don't think it's what your looking
