New Grower TxRebel 1st grow Gelato from Fastbuds

Ok was kinda a long ass rambling there but just searched and have Ace Hardware about 6miles away and they either have it in stock or can at least get it if u get it through their website! $38+ tax but for twice as much as my normal bags! 3.0cu.ft.! Not bad! Def gonna try that after I use this up! After flushing so it’s not hot on lil ones should I get some OneShot to run thru it or maybe mix 1/2&1/2 with the new sunshine stuff? Not sure what best option is here but if I do new ones in 1 gal pots so can fit 4 in the tent then I should have enough soil left for all 4! Hoping so anyways!

Only issue I see with a build a soil is you add a lot of sodium and requires a good herc flush prior to use to tie it up. Try google maps and ask for plant nursery. Bet you can find it cheaper.

Good call that was just 1st that popped up on google search! I just ordered me 4 of those radicle bag pots! 2 1gallon and 2 3gallon (with Velcro n handles) that’ll be here for the new lil ones! Good recommend there buddy! Look good to me!

They only had 2 of those 3gal left so got em but depending how big they seem if needed I’ll order 2 more 1 gallon if needed to fit all 4 of em in my tent! May have to do training so they fit or may keep 2 in closet in the closet and make a net if I do all 4 1 gallon! Choices choices here!

I'd go with 3 gallon, if for no other reason than I'm feeding good sized plants with tiny feed bags. In flower it's hard to keep the ppm up. If the feed bag was a bit larger, it would take a little more time to get thru it. Several times this run I've slurried thinking I'm gonna have to flush, only to find 200 ppm. Doable, but expect to feed more, and more often.

Just checked @Arthur and my damn soil is only 5.8 out the bag so should I drop the ph in some water with vinegar so I can raise it back up with Oly so it can build up some in the soil before I use it?? Thx bud

Just do a herc flush. Adding bonemeal is never a bad thing, then the oly is more calcium, but in a different form. Never hurts. Treat it as if it already has a plant in it. You can probably mix the flush up to 6.8 or 9, no issue of shocking plants.

I used a tiny bit of vi what and dropped distilled water to 4.5, added a tiny bit of Oly and put me at 11.8 so used some more vinegar and got it to like 7.8 & used that to get the soil saturated some and when it dries overnight I’ll Herc flush it tomorrow cuz need to ppm test it! If I remember correctly was almost 500 out the bag last time so don’t wanna shock a seedling! And I am remembering correctly just need to lift inner solo cup out when it’s time and just plant it in bigger pot cup and all right??

Oh ya and I had pulled some ties of the 1 almost finished and this morning the weight from the bigger budlet had the whole branch flopped over inward so had to tie it back over! Also some of the secondary satellite branches are getting lil heavier cuz they are tipping out more and more each day it seems! Excited to see what Bushy lady gives me cuz she is much larger with waaaay more bud sites!

And last question do I need to put any drain holes in bottom cup or just be careful how much I water em?
