Overall a good weak for these. They got their KNF inputs this week and ill probably brew them a tea in the near future. In the next week I will be transplanting them into the 15 gallon final pots.
The other seed I added also failed, I'm not putting this one on Seedsman, I'm thinking this peat pellet thing is a bust. I'm putting in a new seed this weekend but germinating it with paper towels like I've done in the past. Sucks it'll be three weeks behind but still rather have the full 6 plants I can legally have here. I'll keep you posted in that.
They continue to have little bugs and also leaf miners so I pull out the big guns and hit them with Spinosad to get it over with while they are still small. I'll probably follow it up
I have not seen many others using KNF techniques, and you’re doing the full program while I’m only using some parts of it. It seems to work great though, and I’m very happy with it. Cheers.
@Rasjavi420, I like KNF but I think I was shorting the plants for N so I’ve been supplementing with Megacrop to get rid of the yellow tinge. Megacrop is very good and organic, but I’m sure KNF is preferred and I’ll be doing this again. I have not checked out JMS but I will now. I think my soil was a bit microbe poor initially and two rounds of compost tea helped a lot. Anyway, fun stuff.
@Northern_Ent, yeah man, I actually started following you cause you were doing KNF, your right there's very few of us lol. I also use fish hydrolysate instead of FAA, smells like ocean shit.
OHN was a pain in the ass to make but worth it. Works as a pest repellent and I feel comfortable that my soil can handle pathogens or anything bad that makes its way into the soil. And now I have a gallon of it lol. IMO seems hard but like you I make it up with compost tea and Jadam Microbe Solution (you try JMS yet?)
It's a bit time consuming, so next run I'm thinking of doing a side by side KNF vs Build-a-Soil way to see to see which I keep doing.
@Rasjavi420, I’ve found one other person here using KNF. Growdiaries reveals their commercial bias with things like this. You can search for whatever obscure cannabis specific nutrient that people might buy but you can’t search for molasses or KNF techniques. Oh well, it’s still a great site.
I’m using LAB, FPJs and FFJ but not going all in and using IMO or OHN or the fish fermentation (FAA). I figure regular fish fertilizer is much the same as FAA and Fish fertilizer is gross enough even without having to make it yourself.
Overall I think KNF is totally worth it except for maybe a single plant. It’s not more work necessarily you just need to plan ahead. My buds certainly look good so far. 😎. Cheers and good luck.
