Thanks and will do, I will post another vid in about two weeks possibly the 60 day update in a month. The Pineapple is taking off like mad, almost caught up to my #3 blue mystic. It started preflowers at 13 days >.> lower set of branches are already even with the top of the plant. Looks like a scrog wanna be plant.

Update: I started noticing a nute def I wasn't clear on so I stared with testing as much as I could. I get my water from a spring run off that comes out from the top of the mountain here. You would think it would be clean right ? I went to get my usual dose of water and noticed a lady washing her clothes in the spring. I decided to just go above her for fresh water, I ran into a outhouse style walk path right up to the top of the spring.. Yeah 1st month i was basically giving my plants urine,soap, and who knows what else.. /bash head

All is well I turned it around flushed my babies till they were drowning then I flushed them some more with some high O2 water. One plant suffered as it was the youngest funny thing is my seedling G-13 wasn't even phased. It received probably 2 weeks of bad water and it's fine. I got some pics soon as I can get them uploaded.

Here is my setup, note I live in South America and have to wing it with organic tea and organic nute when available.I will post for the hell of it there is some nice nutes available.

PH my water to 5.5 to 5.8 and check my run off for a steady 6.3-6.5.

Soil is LLama,Goat,Cow,Bat guano mixed with homemade perlite( they don't sell it here, seriously lame I know) Lava rock( I had my son break up to small pebble sizes, we first bleached them for 7 days then baked them at 500f for 4hrs, pretty cool having a volcano near by)

Room is 4'6" X 8'6"
Temps range from 74f with lights are off , 78f lights on.
I have a 20" fan keeping things fresh.
20/6 light schedule( See what I did there ?) haha 20/4*
400 watt Son-T
340 watt CFL 5k
6LTR pots-3 gallon catch buckets

Nutes:
Hard Pack ( Ca,MG,MA)
Humic Acid
Bio Enhancer
Micro Bioroot.
Nitro
Phos
Bat guano,llama guano,black strap tea.

Nutes I go only 1/4 strength,anything to do with roots I end up going 1/2 strength. I feel like healthier roots makes a healthier plant
I do no mist my plants or foliar feed ever, I myself found you can cause more problems then solve by quick remedies. Keep coming by I will post more pictures in a few days. Till then

I agree bout them damn roots %1,000. More Roots More Fruits... If you can get some Great White Shark Premium Mycorrhizae, I strongly recommend u doing so, its a beneficial micro organism so its not like giving it to it will hurt ne thing cause its not a nutrient and it doesn't contain salts. Also I feel that if you give it this stuff the very first week into seedling; it makes your plants build a bigger healthier rootball faster so that u can start giving it nutes sooner.... Keep this in mind

I have to wing it here on nutes, we don't have hydro shops stores even located in my country. Yet agr is the #1 export so thank god for all the small farm stores with massive amounts of nutes to choose from. Only thing I really kept tru to is full organic other then the veg nutes. I water up to three times and leech 15%+ pf what ever I put in I make sure comes out, my soil is the shiznit here gotta say that I don't have a EC meter so I can't check my salts this method I think gives me a bit of insurance.

I love my roots, wish I could grow them in a clear marbles so I could watch them grow. I was going to do a DWC setup as I had like 100# of lava rock crushed up, cleaned,baked but the one thing holding me back was nutes made to stay stable in a hydro setup. The nutes I use are not stable under that type of setup PH wise. I scraped that idea and went with the next best thing 100% peruvian soil.( Might be better )
