I have watered the 4 (2 Dutch Passion Colorado Cookies and 2 Royal Queen Northern Lights) with 2ml/liter of voodoo juice, 1ml/liter of Calmag, and .5 ml/liter of AN A&B PH balance. I did not PH the water.

Here is a Royal Queen Northern Lights [HASHTAG]#2[/HASHTAG]. I hope this browning is just cal mag issues. I will wait and see. With the new watering there was cal/mag in the mix.

The fifth plant is just about to pop her head and have a look. This is the DP Ultimate. She did not receive any nutrients only voodoo juice and calmag.

I leave in AM and will be back on Tuesday 22. Lights remain at 24/27"

Hope you are getting a good view of the eclipse, Nosias, while the babies in your basement grow big and strong!

Well I hope the girls are safe and growing in the basement. As the eclipse here for us was a total ZERO. WE tried but over cast skies with showers is all we saw. Though for the short time it got REALLY DARK. I could hardly believe how dark it got. Then the heavens opened up and RAIN and More rain. I have seen it rain before but this was 4-6 inches. A real mess with a lot of trees down. I head home in AM. Looking forward to see the progress. Thanks for the good thoughts

Day 11 for the Dutch Passion Colorado Cookies
Day 6 for Dutch Passion Ultima


My family went to Kansas City, MO to see the Solar total Eclipse. We were unable to see the sun due o the heavy overcast in the area. We were in the "path" so it really got about as dark as night and that was real neat. I hope you all enjoyed this one. The next will be 2024 for us here in the USA.

I returned yesterday late in the afternoon. I went down to the garden and found both of my Royal Queen Northern Lights had decided to die and wither away. They both were fried and had given up the good fight. When I pulled up the roots I saw a tiny root system about 1.5" inches wide and deep. Not a good thing after 2 weeks.

As I believe we make our own reality I should have known that my title said "Dutch Passion" and as it was written so it became a ALL Dutch Passion grow.

The really great news is the DP Ultimate that just broke ground on the 17th is alive and doing great. It looks like it is thriving. The two DP Colorado Cookies are also doing great. One of these was really larger than all of the others and so it remains the bully-ette of the three. The other DP CC looks like it was going to be fried also but keep fighting and I hope it will continue.

I fead both the DP CC on Tues the 22nd. They got the ten day feed. The Ultimate was fead also but with the 5 day feed. I am NOT looking/checking the PH levels. As Hans never worries about it I will do the same.

I have lowered the lights to 24" and raised the Bully-ette up four inches so all are on the same level. "Scottie" is at 100% strength at Veg. I will watch, as I will be home for a week or more, to see if they continue to love the power.

Here are some pics

This is Bully-ette, the DP CC

At this time I have decided to let these three grow and not drop anymore beans.

I must confess that the failure of the others not to survive is my 100% my incompetence NOT to do things as they were needed to be done. I got sloppy on the initial PH on the coco and on the first water feeding. Mea Culpa, mea Culpa...........

I have now gotten the syringes, Thank you @SPZ, so I can put the right amount in each. Also instead of mixing one liter at a time, I have gone to making one batch. My PH down is White distilled Vinegar and boy a little goes a long way. So I really got low on the ph. As I did not have PH UP, I tried to add more water............. Please do not try this at home. Plus I will vape after mixing NOT BEFORE. It is always the simple things that will do me in.

As with any journey there are f...ups and lord know how I like to be casual. This lesson is learned.

I also will try the Root Riots on new seeds. Thanks @EvilScotsman and @Mañ'O'Green
