Been quiet a while sense I have posted on here. Took a brake from growing a little but cant help it and started back up. I try to grow as organic as I can super soil style with a layered soil and just add water. This is 3 plants in a 10 gallon pot at about day 45 from surfacing. 2 plants are Himalayan Blue Diesel and one is my own Purple M-80 that's a 50/50 cross of Buddha seeds purple Kush and Short stuffs strain MI5 at F2. I started a lot of other strains and had a lot of other plants in the tent. The plan was to find a good M-80 father and take the strain to F3 but that did not happen. I was picking for color this go and the M-80 fathers did not purple for me. I picked a purple cross I have that's 75% Purple Kush and 25% MI5 but only at F1. I tried to take the father strain to F2 but the female I kept went full herm on me and had to be destroyed. I had a Cal/Mag deficiency at week 3 and had to give a light feeding of Cal/Mag. I need to do it again. I will fix this issue next time with the mix. I also had too much nitrogen in my mix which I have done a lot. My purple strain uses a lot less nitrogen than most and likes higher Cal/Mag than normal too. I am growing in a 50/50 mix in the bloom layer of a subcool super soil mix and my own mix. My mix was off so I cut it 50/50 with subcool super soil mix.My bloom mix is a mix of roots organic soil, steer manure, lime, bat guano which I will be changing to seabird guano next time, epsom salt, Azomite, green sand and kelp meal. I thought the cups I was using to measure the manure were 12 ounce but found out there 18 
Going to try using some chicken manure next time too lightly. I was using 3 cups of manure. Going to cut the mix back to 24 ounces of steer and start at 8 ounces of the chicken next time. If I would not have used so much manure in my mix it would have been fine for the grow or good enough for a seed grow. I need to up almost every thing though for next time and cut back on the manure. I normally use manure in my veg mix and cut it this time so though I could up the bloom mix but was wrong. These plants have been started and grown under my 600W HPS with 24 hour light cycle and have never seen a dark cycle. Don't judge me I am lazy. I transplanted from solo cups at week 2 in to 1.5 gallon pots tell about week 4 than to the single 10 gallon they all share. I did not want to water 3 plants. They were larger but I topped them at week 3 and trimmed about half the plant off of each one at week 4 when transplanted so they would all fit in the single pot.
