Indoor Sour Crack - Mephisto 3rd Grow

[XRayHipp]

Ok, onward and upward -- stepping my game up with my 3rd grow. MEPHISTO! Going to to try to run with a Sour Crack in my 3 Gal. The cool thing about Mephisto is that they sent me four seeds for the price of one! -- Two Sour Crack and Two Skywalker .. Nice.

-Running a new soil -- .5 Gal of Coco, 1 Gal of HF and 2.5 Gal of OF -- My first two grows I only used OF exclusively which created watering channels in the pot.

-Going with 17/7 for the first month to develop a slightly darker period for root growth and switching to 19/5 at transition to end.
-Pic after the first week after sprout -- looking like the classic broad leaves that SC is known for,.
-300w Mars standard without lens mods
-unique hydroponics 4'x18"x13" stealth box
-wish me luck!View attachment 849655

Day 21 -- looks like my soil experiment is not working to well -- plant showing signs of Nitrogen Toxicity but the lower fans aren't turning yellow, which is good I guess -- plus I read that Coco holds on to N, so I'm not trying that again -- just added the Coco to avoid the watering channels that OF was giving me. Any help to avoid this in the future would be appreciated -- plus this thing is shooting off bud sites right and left -- check out the claw feature of it.

Day 28 -- looks like I have a runt on my hands -- not stretching at all and in full flower mode. Raised the light to hope for a stretch and gradually switched to 19/5 during the week. Not happy with this bonsai - don't want to waste 3 months to get 1/4 dry. Next one will be run on OF only -- do not mix coco with this soil!

Plant looks great healthy may surprise you and turn out some real fire, dynamite comes in a small package.

Bro my mix is 30% coco and my girls are fine. I looked into all these soil mixes and they all seemed to be made of peat, some compost and perlite so I mixed my own for 1st grow used same base for 2nd and 3rd grows with Burpee a organic coco growing mix @ 30%

My girls @ 6 weeks please ck out my others in signature

awesome, but our grow environs are different.. I'm finding myself watering a lot more with this mixture than with straight OF. Is that the case with you? Looks like you have some blueberry in there, is that 4' x 8'? yowza!!!

44 x 44 x 9 ft and yes coco drys out quicker I think. I'm not a fan of premade soils due to ph issues and my blended mix has amendments in the bottom half and my soil ph is between 6.5 and 7 from start to finish. Blackberry kush all are Kush strains
