AFTER PICS

Progress! Just since watered once with plain pH 5.8 water.

So we 13/14 days old now, 3 weeks gone. The girls are doing good, I seem to have been under-watering them. Obviously trying to stay on the side of caution, but since Thursday, I’ve been giving it a good go. Watering around the base and interior area to give a good saturation as I had installed the blumat soaker hose yesterday. Small bit of inner veinal yellowing seems to continue on so I have given 1ml per L fish hydrolysate which actually dosage calls for 5-10ml per Litre, I have been using it wrong this whole time, but I doubt I’ll be going over 1ml, that’s madness. I fed on Thursday, and they seemed to really enjoy it. They soil must be quite depleted on N, which is not a good thing at all. Will navigate as best I can. 5 weeks to go

So far the Seed Starter is not dissapointing... These three will be potted up for the vege further.. Planned for Tuesday.. Then from there into a final pot for flower.. Well done to everyone.. Seems to be a good one thus far..

These ladies have massive leaves. I have topped 1 and 2. #3 I am leaving to her own devices. #2 I am topping 2 maybe 3 times and #1 I will be main lining. Well that's the plan anyway. So her are some before and after pics. Oh have not watered since explogro. No need just yet.

Thank you brother. If Pineapple Fields is at all pineapple tasting, then the terps will mesh well together. DK should bring down flower time as well, and minimise stretch. Win win.

Here she is in all her pregnant glory...

Day 1 of the 4th Week Update Got nothing.. no changes. Video 28 - 29 May

Ya bud, that seems to be your best bet I reckon, the green bag doesn’t have much in it, so you can bank on having an almost clean slate, and mixing that with an in proportion amendment mix would be similar to mixing it with a soil base. So I’m sure that will work to your benefit Keep us updated with the results

Well, this was a rollercoaster ride of decision making for me hahahah so here's what I concluded I will be using the elemental blend to reamend about 90 - 100L of ff green bag for the 2021-22 outdoor season. Will be adding worm castings. if I look at the ingredients of the soil and buy them individually I am gona pay the same amount as just buying that amount of fresh new soil. reason is cause I can't buy per gram, so have to grab a whole bag in cases where I just need half or whatever. so it's a no brainer from here, if I don't try the elemental blend with worm castings, I will just grab fresh green bags

Ladies are starting to gain ground! They not as happy as the other 2 seedlings in the tote... Definitely happier than that poor cutting that I thought was ready to come out the Dome ... Lol its all but vrekked.. exciting change on the way if the tote continues as it is

Each pack has 8 gummies, 25mg a gummy, they actually have a gummy texture unlike most edible gummies you buy, and there are 3 different flavors in the pack, Strawberry, Cherry & Raspberry.

So the girls had some oomph the last couple of days and got uppotted. Roots looking good. Watered in with some microbes and got prime spot in the veg area . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah I plant seeds directly into the light mix after germinated through paper towel method. However, next time I’ll germinate the seeds in jiffy plugs and place them into my pots. I’ve tried placing rooted clones directly into elemental blend mix and it also struggles so made myself a light mix(used equal parts ‘used’ orgasoilux, buffered coco, worm castings and 10% perlite) and use it for clones and seed germination. I haven’t attempted transplanting yet as I mainly grow autos, but have a few clones that will need transplanting. Probably will transplant directly into the rich mix with a bit of myco fungi.

If you have the time and effort you could make the California boardwalk set using the plants as palm trees would be super cool

I also make use of the elemental blend and try not to overdo the re-amending used soil as you can always add later if too weak. I’ve noticed the Blend is quite strong/hot so easy to stunt plants. If you decide to make use of it, I’d recommend have the full dose 10-30ml/l of soil with a top layer of the used ff with 30% worm castings only to allow the roots to establish themselves and work there way into the rich blend. that worked for me perfectly(added coco as well to the top layer but that was indoor pots and not necessary for you) and only fed nutrients once a week. to add: I’m also looking to amending my own soil as I can add specific amendments should issues arise whereas the elemental blend you adding a bit of everything and the plants may not necessarily need a bit of everything.

SeaGro is fine.. But as mentioned above.. Less is definately more with that smelly shit.. I've burnt my fingers a few times with it.. I also prefer no feeding.. Some microbes once a week foliar and soil at 100ml per 10L.. I'm new to indoor so I would prefer to stear clear of anny EC,PH meters and all that for now. That could just confuze a medicator.. I'll take it slow with that.. Lets just try and get environment spot on.. PM is my biggest worry now that I struggle with it.. Indoor can become real tricky and involved... I take my hat off to the veterans on here.. Growing those dense nugs is not just strain and genes.. Takes some true passion and mastery to create..

Agreed. That's where mixing your own soil comes with huge benefits, you know exactly the amounts of what you put in the soil and with trial and error you can eventually have a soil that will in most cases will push through flowering. Knowing what the plants are needing is key in organics thats why I do not advise new growers to try organics, with synthetics its easier to fix with flushing and also plants react faster to synthetics, with organics if something does go wrong, we looking at removing the plant from the medium rather than flushing in most cases, and trying to fix things can take up to a few days so it's important to try get things dial in from the start. I don't want to discard elemental blend from the topic, I do believe it can get the job done if you tweek it abit, from my only run with it last time I would diffinatly add abit more nitrogen around 4 weeks, possibly bone meal or more worm castings, in my situation my plant wasnt getting enough nitrogen during flower and diffinatly wasn't potassium, @GGGadds more castings which leads me to believe that maybe the blend could do with a better nitrogen source . Still I did get a decent harvest, not perfect but as I said if you know what you doing and tweak it abit you can have a good product

Good Morning and Welcome to the last day of Week 3 No feeding, but I lowered the light again a bit ^^ I leave it here for now. Running on 561-570 PAR Picture hit a bit the low reading ^^ Distance is now 60cm Distance issue is nice visible here.. is very hard to hang the correct distance in a multi lamp setup. The QB would be way lower, if only one would be active inside the tent. I think is the reason why my readings for flower were so much off. Even I tested them single in a empty tent. Depending on light configuration 600 Watt lights have very different hanging distances. And the LUX meters I tested on my phone had up to 20% different results.. then you can also just guess. 100cm hanging distance or 80cm.. is a word. Video 27 - 28 May

Close ups of the little weedlings.. Nr 3 coucht up with 2 quicker than antisipated and I'm now glad for keeping her going..

SCROG net done. Much better

Yes... Should of.. planing it now with the reject beans of the LGO.. Summer I would like to have them creep through the nethouse close to the top.. 100L grow boxes.. Watch this space..

This looks great man! I'd love some pointers on how to get into growing some oysters and shiitake mushrooms! If you're keen please PM me some details bud! Thanks so much @Naughty.Psychonaut

After recently getting indirect feedback from a grower who measures his input EC to his organics, found his EC reading was lower than usual so he bumped up the EC using only the bloom blend and probably gave 3 or 4 times the recommended dose. That quite simply locked his plants up. This bloom blend does not work on its own. You have to use a fish hydrolysate and mollases. This blend being partly salts, is meant to be used as follows: 1ml fish hydrolysate, 1ml molasses, and 1ml of this bloom blend per 1l of water, with every watering. From the 3rd week of flower. You also don't raise the dose as you go through peak Flowering. The dosage stays the same. It's a matter of constant micro fertigation to sustain a healthy plant.... Being over eager and over feeding does not mean a yield increase

I don’t think it would bud, but all depends on how much is in there. Still I don’t think it will be a problem

what's good @thelazyfishermanza check this thread out

Gaining ground they definately are.. Bloody hell..

I like the idea of the worms in the pots.. I've had in my outdoor pots a few times but with the indoor I use diotomatious earth in my medium to get rid of fungus knats.. Would that not kill a earth worm.?

It is apparently a super aphrodisiac for the worms Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Seagrow in extremely small quantities once in a blue moon has helped me indoor, but I prefer not to use it as it's v easy to overuse imho. Try and make a Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ) using cannabis leaves & brown sugar. This is what I feed from day 1 on my seedlings, foilar spray/feed After week 3 I add a bit of Epsom to the foilar spray.

I use the Blumat tropf carrots, so the blumat drippers basically. Works really well, I have a pump connected to it - so not gravity fed.

Autopots as well, but with airdomes. Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk

2 of the 3 popped up I can see the third coming

Can't do that.. by GF would plunder the tent each day.. for the avos

Keep in mind.. when the video ends, they go dark in the single day vids ^^ you see how they prepare to go dark. plants are cool... I made the first long video.. cut all single days I had into the first 3 weeks. Also gave it a speed up (again 3x)^^ Youtube censors it.. tried to change.. but is fun to watch them wiggle

Hi , check out Bluemat system . Gravity fed or you can put a pump on aswell . I'm running mine the gravity way. Takes a few twitches and when it's set it works great. Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk

Ya bro, literally very simple and easy process, I was a lot more confident when buying because of your advice though. Yeah bro do it, i'm super happy with the buy. new gear is always a treaaaat!

Happy belated birthday @Stinger96! Hope you had a good one. OK, no theme anymore. I am glad I don't have to climb Helderberg, lol. Instead here's a flower from my first indoor run on South African soil. Zurple Punch it is. Thanks to the clone donor and to the one who gave me the grow equipment for a while. You know who you are ;).

Tomorrow I am 3 years away from hitting 50 and I agree.. Keeping it on the lowdown because of the years of persecution.. Must say though that I pretty much fell out the closset the past few years.. and more and more give a shit what people think or what their opinions are .. Below a pic from KNF Gardens Insta page.. Just love what their doing..

I understand you, hitting over 40 myself, and always kept my cannabis life in the dark as best I can. Sacred, definitely, 100%

Now that the theme is open, i've chosen 3 random images from the last 2 years of growing this wonderful plant

Anything herb related i assume?

Righty ho. Roots have appeared on #1 & #3 so I think it's soil time. Some of you that have been monitoring my progress since I started growing a year ago will have noticed I have a different light now. A few weeks back when everyone was scrambling to get their beans before the cut off date there was a lot of goodwill and offers of help going about. Was actually a good feeling watching people willing to help strangers. A few of you reached out to help me pay the entrance fee. Thanks to you all for the offer. Then a local guy I support soil wise gave me soil towards the grow, how he found out I don't know. So a big thank you to Jou Ma se Soil although I changed to Just Cannabis at the 11th hour. And the generosity didn't stop there. @Light It Up reached out and asked if I had a decent light and offered me a 240w QB for the duration of the grow. No strings attached, put it back in the box and return to sender after the grow off. Or purchase it if I wanted to. Speechless. I've already quit the pub and smoking next. You know where this is going. Big shout out again to the above, the forum, @Totemic and the sponsor's for such a great opportunity.
