Wild Bill does EarthBoxes under HLG DIABLO 650R

Crank that light up! Those plants can handle much more light. If your looking to save on the power bill, get your PPFD up to 600. they'll develop a lot faster.
I would have already done that, if it wasn't for the replacement one that is a few days younger.
Now that's with the Mars light in mind and it's spectrum. If you think the light spectrum from the
HLG DIABLO 650R won't keep them really short, I'll crank it up to 600
 
600 PPFD will suppress stretch a bit but not a lot. I believe it is about ideal for veg. I'm still looking into what I can find science wise, but the 600 PPFD range seems to be about ideal as a balance on energy use and good veg growth.

Up it comes over the next couple of cycles!

Coming along fine, but didn't like the light bump. She'll get taped up later today.

I've come to another "Wild Bill EarthBox Rule".

Even if I'm not going to train heavily, ALL Regular EarthBox Auto girls will be planted to one end or the other. It comes down to time getting that root structure established quickly in the wicking area.
Planting in the center isn't going to cut it with autos. I think it's not that important on photos with no time clock running.
Another alternative may be center planting, let the girl get bigger(bigger root system) and then start adding water to the rez. Center planting is better for arraignment in the tent, but speed and the power of the EarthBox is what I'm after. I think in my next Auto run in Regulars, I'll Plant both ways. The center planted girl will be grown and watered like a regular pot girl, with attention to also limited watering of the two wicking areas.

Anyway, either method will be better than this run. I started adding limited watering to the rez of the Regulars the same time I did with the Juniors. That was a mistake. The Jrs will establish that relationship quickly with them directly above the wicking area. The timing was great with the Jrs.
My Regulars will come around, but they won't be what they could have been.

Juniors are doing absolutely fantastic! 3 Bears OG X Samsquanch should be showing sex any day with today being 17 days above ground. She's right on the verge. Should closely examine others. Orgy pot needs training.

Turned up the HLG DIABLO 650R to just under 600ppfd. Girls seemed to have tolerated it much better.

Today is flower prep for all Earthbox girls
All got the same ingredients, just in different amounts
Jrs
1Table Spoon Craft Blend
1 Table Spoon Roots Organic Flower
2 Table Spoon Roots Organic Terp Tea
2 handfuls of EWC
3 handfuls of Lobster Compost

Regulars
2Table Spoon Craft Blend
2 Table Spoon Roots Organic Flower
4 Table Spoon Roots Organic Terp Tea
4 handfuls of EWC
4 handfuls of Lobster Compost

This was lightly watered in with my standard humic acid water with the following;
1 oz/gal Yah-Whey
1/2 oz/ Alfalfa ferment
1 1/4 teaspoon/ gal Amino Acid
1 teaspoon of Blue Gold Flower
1 teaspoon of my FFJ
This was also what I used to fully water the gal pots.

The Earthboxes were sprinkled with EM1 Bokashi on top of the top dressings and covered with Alfalfa hay. This should give the fungus from the bokashi a place to grow and do it's work.

Girls that were big enough, got a bit of training and cleaning up.
Hopefully, the two regular EarthBoxes are finally coming around a bit.
I'll add a little water to their rez later today when I feed the 3gal pot girls.
Each Jr EarthBox received 1/2 gal of my stock water with a half dose of EM1
