Nutrients Waira Talks to the Doc with Rx Blend....

:cheers: .... thank you mates! ....you know, the bruiser so far is Livers, but Creeper has a longer runway so we shall see,... :eyebrows:
Ribbz, the HBHz seems rather compact so far, and a look at her forming laterals, they are shooting out practically at 90 degree angles!

My bad, who's who here.... top left clockwise: Livers, HBHZ, Creeper (round pot), Orange Bud
Lol yeah the HBHZ is bushy. That one plant alone will bow the walls out of that tent lol.

All of the Hubba's ended up big, strange she's so small, maybe she's a bit introvert :haha: keeping you guessing
 
I'm head scratching too, but not exactly complaining... Soon there will be temporary room mates in there, 6 half gal. photo' seedlings! Those take a swim today or tomorrow -:woohoo1:.... I also need to figure out what to do with the first Creeper that came out funky. She's turned the corner better than I predicted, and got transplanted yesterday. A couple friends want to try their hand at a plant or two, so there's a home somewhere! :baby:
 
:coffee:another feed, and all are cruising along,... #1 wonky seedling Creeper transplanted, and other than being well behind, she's just fine now...

So far this is one of the best starts I've had since getting the tent. Zero issues, unlike the other starts using the old GBD "water only" mix and after that MC; both of which had some mild interveinal chlorosis showing during veg' and staying no matter what I did! :shrug:

Livers bx (red tag) continues to be the largest, OB (orange tag) close behind... HBHz (purple), Creeper #2 round pot

>>> check out the trippy self LST she's doing! I've not had an auto run her laterals nearly horizontal like this before, usually I have to tie them down...

Creeper #1, new shoes... doing well now, fully over her weird single cotyl', bent 90 degrees off for days start...

:cools: cruising along,... last feed I saw a touch of tip yellowing, that tells me the 1/2 strength week 2 conc. was borderline in this fairly rich soil....

Livers and Orange Bud got some Wedge-Tech training today - :biggrin:
... same order, top left clockwise: Livers bx, HBHz, Creeper, OB

:smokeout: Week 3-ish
So far so good, nobody is turning into a tent hog, plenty of room for the new photo kids to get a fast launch before hardening off to OD life... ...Transplanting in a few days or so to 1/2gal starters; a couple weeks here to adjust and grow out some, then off to the grow site for final pots and the KIS Nutrient pack soil testing! :cooldance:That soil is cooking away currently...

Rx Blend nutes are working great so far... I started at recommended dosing for seedlings but added BioSi and Kelpful anyway at half strength.
Next feeding was all the recommended parts at half str.; feeding after that went to half+ on all but A and B, 3ml each of those (per gal)...
Livers showed a tiny bit of tip yellowing after that, so going more easy on her... Today, same thing for all... I did forget to work the aspirin/salicylic acid in this time, so next round then....
As a group they are more compact than usual :shrug:... same lights, distances plsu there's a significant swing in light/dark hour T's, 10 degrees at least. I though this promoted stretching some? Whatever the case, the 4000K AutoCOB will come out soon, and the DIY dual 3500K COB conversion a friend made for me goes in... It has fans though, noise I dislike so I'll be talking to BigSm0 in a bit about getting another AutoCOB I think! Still eyeing that Spider Farmer SF1000, veeeery temping! :biggrin:

They look really beautiful. Do you think it's cytokinin in the Kelpful maintaining a shorter internode distance?

:jointman: Thanks Damien!
....Hmmm, with all the other potential factors that could be behind this, it's difficult to make a call on that,... The amount going in isn't very much either, since I blend the King's Mix with Empire Builder, it holds water nearly 2x as long as straight KM (very nice stuff BTW Dam', if ever you want to roll in the dirt some! :rofl:... nice and light, fast drying, good for rapid cycling)-- and so I'm not watering as often... Plus I'm being careful with this unfamiliar nute line... Only 1 foliar spray done so far a few days ago, so that's out.... But who knows what sort of concentration is in Kelpful? :eyebrows:
If anything the 4000K AutoCOB may have helped for sure with that color T, and a bit too close perhaps..... nights cooler than usual with the early start, mid 60's dips before the heater kicks on...
