I went ahead and did whole run with fresh soil mix, water only no teas. The round I just started will be water only with foliars. It seems to work really well to just water and leave the soil alone. And mulch of course.

I like spray feeding - especially trace minerals- even in early stages of budding ..... soil top dress to keep worms feed / happy but otherwise just some mammoth p and / or em1 in water but I’m doing in a SIP container so I just add a splash of this or that as I add water - no set schedule or log to follow I just wing it except on spray feed which are always in Friday’s so I don’t get Flippin confused as to last feeding .....

Peace,
OB

I’m still running SIPs and will never change. It works soooo good. The best part is I can leave for a weekend with no worries.
Do you use Mammoth P instead of mycorrhizael fungi?

Mammoth P in the water and EM1 - alternate between them ..... any fungi added is put dry direct in soil .....

Part of my water only strategy, is to let the plant and established microbes, work out there 'trading relationships' on there own without outside influence. For me it seems to be working well. It kind of goes back to research showing that if you add P or have abundance, for example, the mycorrizeal fungi go dormant and don't trade P for free carbon. I have also heard that it takes so long to set up the relationship, that with autos, it may not work till the latter end of the grow. (Unless you notill, he he he).
Also its an effort to keep pH swings minimal, and allow the plant and microbes to establish and maintain the pH level within the plants rhizosphere that they want at any given time.
All good stuff MOB, and good luck with the upcoming grow off.

Tyrone Special by Hansbricks

Harvested on Day 73 from sprout
Approximately 25" tall and 30" wide.
Yield was 139g dry/cured at 62%RH

Grow Area: 4'x2'x5' Grow Tent
Lighting: Mars-Hydro 400w Mars II LED (190w actual)
Nutrients/Supplements: Advanced Nutrients - pH Perfect Grow/Micro/Bloom, Bud Candy, Big Bud, Voodoo Juice, Overdrive and Cal/Mg
Soil: Pro-Mix Organic w/ 30% Perlite + Dolomite Lime
Pot: 15L Autopot kit with AirDome

Very easy plant to grow, nutes were kept at 1/2 strength, never had any problems or deficiencies.
Around Day 35 I removed 5-6 of the secondary branches as well as the bud sites on the lower 1/4 of the plant, also did some minor defoliation throughout the flowering phase.
Very strong smelling plant, both during flower and once dried. Carbon filter is a must if stealth growing, and even then smell could be an issue.
Dried buds are not super dense but not fluffy either, they are extremely resinous and loaded with trichs.

Hansbrick was the one I followed here first. He made it look so easy. Thank you Mr Hansbrick where ever you are.
