Indoor WildBill's Spring 2022 Photo and Auto grow

[WildBill]

Bill, have you ever used aminos for nitrogen? I was thinking about giving it a try while not blending my dirt as hot. I got the idea from a BuildASoil vid in which Jeremy recommends using it.

Once week in the water. I have a very high quality enzymatic/Hydrolyslate soy amino acid, not soy meal.
I make a 'Stock water' that contains humic acid1/4 tsp/5gal and go up to 1tsp/5gal if any non-genetic stem purpling.
The EBs are a bit different. No nutes go in the water, humic is ok. Like the J I just added to the older EB girl, I make a slurry of compost and what nutes I'm adding, and then add it to the mound(food bank). I don't really do it as often in the EB, but I do add different, varied nutes when I do.

I've been using ROOTS ORGANICS TERP TEA. I've just been top dressing and watering it in. With some plants that will need watering tonight, I thought to do a quick brew of 12 or more hours. I'd rather have the soybean meal as a enzymatic, but something in it is a surfactant. It foams up like crazy, might also be from the worm castings.

It does seem like a very good tool and is a good source for different nutes. It's a good tool to have in your organic grow.

The idea, they claim, is to increase terps, which would kinda make ya think to use it thru flower, but at 7 - 1 - 1, I think I'll just pull back a little on the aminos instead during flower.
Any thoughts?.

Sulfur is known to increase essential oil production, and increase terps.

Used bubbled Terp Tea. Added regular feed of aminos and half dose of Garret Juice.

Added compost to AVT, 2Tbs Craft Blend, sprinkling of bokashi and then wetted it down. Need to let her grow a few more days before I pull her over. I think letting her get taller will let her get all the way down to the far end of the EB.

The Mutant Fat blueBerry got her center cleaned up. Seems she self topped after the first node. Since she's ugly, I'm gonna top the two main colas at least once.

The Acapulco Gold got topped.

I moved Elephant to the 4x4 and the Fat Blueberry went to the 2x4, in prep to flip the 2x4 to 12/12.
Wizard's Apprentice x Tangie probally should be flipped pretty soon. I don't know how this cross will react to 12/12 and how big she will get in flower.
She's only in a 3gal pot, so I don't really want her to get too big, but I'm sure I can feed her enough of what she'll need.
I do think this girl would make a killer EarthBox girl.

She doesn't look like I've touched her, but I've done plenty of training, leaf tucking and a minimal of leaf removal.
Any thoughts on flipping her?

GROUP SHOT

Wizard's Apprentice x Tangie 39 days above ground.....regular nute program
She's a hungry girl! I should have given her some aminos Yesterday, but she got some 3 or 4 days ago with Garret Juice also. I didn't expect her to get this hungry. Color is not actually that drastic of a difference.

Wizard's Apprentice x Tangie 39 days above ground..............GLB nutes Again....inaccurate colors

Mutant Fat Blueberry 33 days above ground
She'll have to live her life out in this photo tent when I flip to 12/12

SSSC AUTO ELEPHANT ....33 days above ground
,

3 Bears OG X Double Grape ........40 days above ground.
She sucked up 2 gallons in less than 5 days, so I'm happy with that. Will add two gallons of basic stock water with humic acid, but at double rate. I'm still seeing a slight purpling of new fan leaf stems. Don't know why she seems to need more.
Gotta luv those Meph genetics........getting frosty already and looks like she'll be pretty generous with it.
And she's getting stinky when disturbed....any. Fruity/grape

She got a little trimming today of her very bottom and two small suckers. If I had more room, I'd open her up a bit. I really couldn't see any real worthy training to any of the side colas coming up. I'm just going to continue with pulling the main over. She's still moving forward, but I don't know for how much longer. Node separation getting close. I guess I'll have to let her go up when I get no more side branching coming off her.
I'd be happy with what I have to play with, if that's it.

Coffee good.
Rosin is better!
Pain ok.
Cats are fed.....................cats have ringworn!

4x4 tent full of Happy Girls stinking up the place.
SP6500 is finally at 100% running avg 650ppfd

2x4 has one super eager photo girl waiting to be flipped.. She's gonna get a heavy dose of aminos and a light J to get a little ahead of flower needs. I think I'll flip the tent in the next 5 days. Just wanna flip with the bigger girl slightly greener.
All potted girls will get some compost tea and nutes today at first light or there about. 4x4 potted girls will get a maintenance amino dose and a slightly heavy J dose.
AVT will get compost with J mixed into a wet slurry with compost tea water and put on top of a small dose of Craft blend. On top of that will go a bit of alfalfa hay and a sprinkle of bokashi.
Seedling tent has three happy ChemBubbly girls this morning. There was only 2. One looked like she died coming up......very light. So I pulled her from the tent and sat the planter on the work 'dresser'. Last night, I realized she had fully sprouted and was stretching to find light. She got a spritz of water and placed back in the tent with a fresh spritz of the dome. Was nicely greened up this morning.
Hope this good vibes keeps up the rest of the day!

Alien VS Triangle has drank her 2gal rez this morning! She'll get a J feeding and Maint. dose of aminos mixed into a wet slurry with the Coast of Main Lobster compost. '
I'll probably wait until first light this evening to work and feed all the girls, except the babies in the 2.3x2.3

DAY 44 ABOVE GROUND
3 Bears OG X Double Grape drained a two gallon rez fill in LESS than 4 days.
3 Bears OG X Double Grape is going to be very frosty. She's not shy with the trichs!
She'll get 2gal added to her rez in the morning before lights out.

AVT got 2gal of tap water with double rate humic acid and 60lm of EM1. She also received lobster compost slurry with compost tea and J on top of a few table spoons of Craft blend. She got a bit of training.
All girls in pots were watered with compost tea. Flowering girls had added J to the tea
