Nutrients Prescription Blend Grows SweetSeeds in AutoPots - Test by Only1Sky

[Only1Sky]

This journal will chronicle my initial growing experience with @Prescription Blend nutrients. Many thanks to Matthew and George for giving me the opportunity to test out their new-to-market line.

I'll be running seeds supplied by @Sweet Seeds (@Sweet Seeds Apolo , @Sweet Seeds Jay), to whom I owe thanks for their generous prizes in past photo contests.
We'll be doing Train Wreck and Jack 47. Note; I'm also trying to germinate Killer Kush which I'll run in 3-gal RainScience Grow Bags.

As a baseline of comparison, I'll be growing two seeds of each, and feeding one set with GreenLeaf's nutrients and one set with Prescription Blend's nutrients. This should NOT be considered a "battle" between nutrients - that would not be fair considering the large phenotype variations seen when growing autoflowers from seed. But I do expect both lines to perform equally well, and having one of each will help establish the commonality (baseline) effects of the other environmental factors.

My kit for this grow is:
Gorilla Grow tent: 4x4x8
6" intake fan, 6" exhaust fan, two interior circulation fans
Analog humidifier with Inkbird Controller
Medium: coco with perlite
Container: AutoPots
Lights: Cobshop COBs, the tent has four 3500k lights and one 2700k light

Oh yeah!

Thank you very much for sharing a new diary with some of our strains.

We hope you enjoy it.

Sweet smokes,

We'll call this "Day 1" . We seem to have survived the germination phase, but I always keep my fingers crossed for the first couple of weeks above ground. Today the gals on the left got diluted GreenLeaf MegaCrop, and the young ladies on the right got a seedling size dose of RXBlend Core A & B.

Woopie, I got my two Killer Kush seeds off and running (took a little while due to "operator error"). They are in 3-gallon RainScience Grow Bags loaded with coco & perlite. Only amendment was a tablespoon of Mykos in the hole before inserting the germinated Starter-Plug.

Here they are on day three. Today each got .3 liter of highly diluted mix. Red tag (Green Pot) is getting MegaCrop. Purple Tag (Yellow Pot) is the Prescription Blend girl. She is actually 12 hours older than her MegaCrop sister. But who's counting?

And here is the whole Sweet Seeds test crew. The AutoPot girls are now 7 days old. They also got the same .3 liters of diluted feed. Daily misting is with a kelp foliar spray.

Here's the Sweet Seeds family; day 12 for Trainwreck and Jack47 in the AutoPots, and day 8 for Killer Kush in the RainScience Grow Bags. The Prescription Blend gals (purple tags on the right) are now getting the early week vegetative mix of Core A & B, Bio-Si, Kelp-Ful, and Precursor. Likewise, the GreenLeaf gals (red tags on left) and stepped up to a stronger dose of MegaCrop and now have Sweet Candy added as well. Daily misting for all.

Here's a closer look at each pair:

I know its VERY early, but I have to say that I think the Prescription Bland gals are looking a tag bigger and happier.

Sweet Seeds family update; day 17 for Trainwreck and Jack47 in the AutoPots, and day 13 for Killer Kush in the RainScience Grow Bags. All truckin' along fine. Today was the final top feeding for the gals inthe AutoPots. I'll turn on their AutoPot trays in the next couple of days. Really looking forward to seeing how the Prescription Blends treats the feed lines. I have a feeling that it's going to be smooth sailing.

All here's the closer look at each pair; MegaCrop on left with red tags, Prescription Blend on right with purple tags.

see ya later.

Sweet Seeds update; day 20. Big day today, we activated the Auto Pots. Could of (should of) done it sooner, but it took me a few days to get the lines prepared. I had ignored them since my previous grow - which had frequent issues with clogged lines. So I spent lots of time syringing hot water through them, then letting them rest 24 hours with vinegar, then again with hot water pumped thru. This will be a keen test for Prescription Blend. I've gotten clogs with everything I've used (Advanced Nutrients, Greenleaf) -- seems like the cal-mag supplements tend to foul and settle out after a bit. Even a lite water pump in the reservoir didn't seem to help at all. So here we go. First the two Jack 47 plants:

Then the two Trainwrecks:

And finally the two Killer Kushes at day 16 and in 3-gallon RainScience Grow Bags:
