Grow Mediums "Times are a changing, continued."

Ok. I’m here. New Bat-time. New Bst-channel.

Glad you are here. The six shooter is now looking like I may have under feed her. I am at 0.95 gram per liter and added Cal/mg. I will see what she looks like in am. Other ladies are looking green and healthy

Damn the rez went high PH again on me. 6.5. The Fast Buds Six Shooter really went pale green. Here I thought she need more Nutes but I tested the rez and WTF. So I have flushed 6 shooter with 3 gallons of plain water ph to 5.8. I am going to keep her off the rez for the time being.

The other new ladies are doing fantastic. I will say they are all 10 days old now. I gave them each 1 Liter with 1.0 MC2 per Liter with 4 mil of Cal/Mg and 2.0 grams of Sweet Candy. This PH'ed at 5.9 so I dropped it to 5.8. They are green as I like and healthy. The growth has been a huge surprise to me. I am wondering if the Weeds gods will be kind to me in spite of my boastfulness.

Good Monday to you. Glad you made it by here.
Today they are 15 days old.

1 - DUTCH PASSION: ULTIMATE
2 - FAST BUDS: GREEN CRACK
3 - LINDA SEEDS: MAZAR KUSH
4 - LINDA SEEDS: AFGHAN SKUNK
5 - ROYAL QUEEN: WHITE WIDOW
6 - ROYAL QUEEN: NORTHERN LIGHTS

The ladies in the back of the tent will not be featured any longer in this thread. AGAIN to be clear the ladies all went to hell because of me. Ok then.

This grow I am seeing if just the 2.2 gal pots are enough. I am waiting for a seed drop today and also getting the rest of mine 2.2 pots. Two of the ladies will not use a valve nor an air dome. Instead I have used a 4" rock wool cube and placed that in the coco and put in the jiffy pellet. I normally only use Root Riots, which I swear by, but I had some Jiffies and so I used them. It maybe that I planted them a bit too deep. They came up but they seem a little like a low rider in the pot.

Now 4 of these ladies I have grown b4. They are DUTCH PASSION: ULTIMATE, FAST BUDS: GREEN CRACK, ROYAL QUEEN: WHITE WIDOW and ROYAL QUEEN: NORTHERN LIGHTS. I had bought them in a three pack. So these are the last of those packs and I have had them for over 3 years. The point I am driving at is this time they went huge on me. On the ROYAL QUEEN: WHITE WIDOW the fan leaves are 1.5" wide. Now to most of you this is normal or you have seen it b4. Well it has not happened to me until now.

So what is the different this time. First thing is I seemed to have gotten the MC2 dosage correct for this 2 weeks. They are not stunted. But the big difference is the additional light. I went from 400 watts to 650 watts from the wall. OH now I remember reading somewhere that all you have to do is feed them, give them light and water and JUST do not kill them. Both lights are Samsung. I am already loving the extra light.

@TheMongol How many are we supposed to vote for?

Today the ladies are 20 days old.

1 - DUTCH PASSION: ULTIMATE
2 - FAST BUDS: GREEN CRACK
3 - LINDA SEEDS: MAZAR KUSH
4 - LINDA SEEDS: AFGHAN SKUNK
5 - ROYAL QUEEN: WHITE WIDOW
6 - ROYAL QUEEN: NORTHERN LIGHTS

I have topped two of the ladies on day 14. They are both doing well. One is DUTCH PASSION: ULTIMATE and the other is ROYAL QUEEN: NORTHERN LIGHTS. Though it seems like they both are a bit sensitive to the lights. So I have them in front of the others less direct light. Both lights have been raised about a foot.

I have been hand watering when the color of green has been turning a lighter green. So some I am watering every day on some and others every two days. The coco is now compressed to maybe 5" or shorter. I am using a liter for each. There is a lot of run off and the tray captures that.

I am now using 1.1 grams by weight of MC2 per liter. Along with 0.5 mil of Cal/Mg per liter as well as .25 gram per liter of Sweet Candy. Today I will put all six ladies on the rez this AM. I use 12 liters at a time in my rez. So I let the water sit for 24 hrs or more b4 I add my nutes. I read here to always add Cal/Mg first by itself into the water then stir it. I weigh out my MC2 and Sweet Candy and put this in a jar of hot tap water. This helps to break up the MC2. Again as read here on AFN. I PH this to 5.7 - 5.8 and then let it sit over night. The adjust PH again if needed. By doing this 24 hour and over night process I read that it will "stabilize" the PH so it does not go too high. once it is in the rez.

Every grow is different. Every lady is unique. We are the lucky ones who just enjoy having them grow with us.
