week the girls get to grow up and Shine...1st Day of 12/12. Thinking how much fun this will be going from a 6/2 but what the hey, they need their beauty sleep now to blossom - may take a few days longer to transition but....
Received a Torus Hydro Inline in the post today (Really didn't think I was going to get it but fair f**ks to Torus Hydro, they delivered!!!) but wont put it in until next grow. Story behind this is I bought a Torus Hydro Standard...Didn't realise that its pretty ineffective unless your setup is roots in (Which it is now, but that's by the by...). I brought it up to my vendor that it was killing my pH to some serious acidic areas and in all fairness, in their sales docs, it states my setup probs not right but I thought what the hey, lets contact Torus just to make sure its not a fault as when researching this last year, the inline didn't exist and claimed to be OK for my setup. Also, nowhere in this region sells the inline so was pretty snookered. Well, the guys at Torus were AMAZING...Seriously amazing (The bad press they get on YouTube from a couple of people must be from some seriously bad manners on the youtubers part!!!). All they asked for was my Proof of Purchase (Which just happened to have my dispatch address in it) and under a week later, an inline arrived from Germany!!! Cant wait to try this in next run as I do go away a few weekends so pH management a pain in the balls when you're not there!!! :P
So, they're now under the Sylvania 600W Dual Spec HPS and SCROG'd so no more "Real Colour" shots for the rest of the grow. Now just to keep them happy and fed!
Oh, also got 1st COVID vaccination today so hopefully my arm doesn't fall off or grow somewhere else - Had that Covid back last November and it was a DICK!!!
@homerjgangia, Cheers buddy, much appreciated. Now I have finally added their story, I appreciate them more. I killed these at seedling stage...barely even...only had their head out the sponge and I dried them out!!!! Surprised they bounced back. In all fairness, i have to put it down to the John Innes #1! they were sitting with the weeist 1st leaves you've ever seen for like 7 days...looked dead and then bang...fattest plants in the grow. Just looked at the 2 Strawberry Lemonades I have out there too (they are ill looking due to root issues) as opposed to the 2 wedding cakes I have kept as clone reserves and the wedding cakes matching the growth speed of the Pink Kushes which when just in root riots stalled like fuck! thinking of pulling the over brown, slow growing SL for some cake!! :D
@GMSgrows, Much appreciated buddy...had a hellish start with atrocious humidity giving the look of every possibly deficiency, Root Riots drying out, the works...if it could go wrong it did go wrong (That's why there so many missing weeks...too busy fixing each of my f**k ups!!!). Surprised I got this far...have to say though, the Botanicare Kind is a decent wee regimen and using the same recipe I pre-built when I was last talking to you 3 months before starting this grow and its bang on!!!
That truly confused me. I wes thinking, did he post these upsiude diown? Then i realised he was hanging them, then i thought "but aren't you meant to do it in dartkness, then i realised you need light to take a photo! duh!
** Update ** - trying a flush. Not pure tap water but close. Added 60ml pure blend tea, 50ml active boost, 50ml fulvic and 50ml Sensizym to a 50L tank. Probs add 5ml ATA Clean just to start to cleaning process too. Last days now!!! :)
Edit - Added PK Warrior in the end, but very little compared to recommended...added at 0.2ml/L as opposed to the 0.5-1ml/L (1ml/L usually used the 1st week [week 4] and then 0.5 for the following 3 weeks).
