Almost there
Nirvana Short Riders are in the 1st week of pre harvest flush. The 1st week is Sugar Daddy and MagiCal as per Technaflora RfS for Shorty #2. Shorty #1 is getting 1 TBS Molasses and 1 heaping tea. epsom salts. The 2nd week will be straight ph'd water. They should be ready to enjoy @ The 4th of July.
Shorty #2 has had some ph issues. I added too much dolomite lime to her earlier in the grow. That was a big mistake and my next grow will not be doing that again. Her leaves are all spotty, but she's chugging away just fine.
Going to cut a few buds off and Vape them up. Just to see what's what.

..and i've made exactly the same mistake with the dolomite lime before - just threw a whole heap on top my soil before watering it in - needless to say, it didnt go down well with the girls lol - I never made that mistake again

Can be used for correcting a PH issue in soil - at least I tried to correct mine with it.
If i recall dolomite lime has a PH of around 7 so if you're soil is too acidic, you can use the lime to raise it.
I've also got a suspision it helps buffer the soil - but don't quote me on that :s
My preffered method of correcting a ph issue, is just to flush with PH'd water until i get it in range and then continue feeding when it dries out. I'd rather have a pot of soil with no nutes for a couple of days than a pot of soil with PH issues for the rest of the grow.
You could of course add a light feeding after the flush, That might be more sensible. ^_^

I've been using Happy Frog. I had a ph issue and thought that adding dolomite lime may raise the soil ph. Well, it screwed up one of my Shorties. To the point that I have never been able to get her ph corrected. Happy Frog has dolomite lime in it. I over did it. My advise is if you need to adjust your soil ph try to ph the water/flush. If that dosen't seem to help. Add dolomite lime as you're last resort and add very little. I'd say a teaspoon per gallon (container size). Then water a couple of times before adding any more. Dolomite lime can really screw things up and once that happens it's tough to get the ph right. That's my experience.

Gonna do just that. I figure another week or two will do the trick. The tricomes are still clear/cloudy. They have really put on some bud weight on the last few weeks. These are under a 300w Feliz Dual Spectrum. I don't really know why peeps dis cfl's. The Shorties are screaming thick.:hot: When I grew out doors I really never had a chance to get them to the finish line before the frosts hit. These girls are gonna be sweet.:drool:
