BioEnhancer - Green House Feeding
BioEnhancer 1 mll
Hi guys well batmans at it again thanks to greenhouseseeds for hosting a diary competition they sent a few of us guys out starter packs with bio feed bio bloom and enhancer which is voodoo by the way but I'll get to that in a bit. So yeh batman was happy to receive a nice parcel full of seeds bio grow bio bloom And bio enhancer to basically so the job for me never really used powdered feed much so excited to see where this will take my grow maybe to the next level heres hoping. Well to start with anyways I made one of my trusty DIY air pots with straws but this time made a larger profile to fit a least 5 straws into invading her root zone hopefully being a photo she will be able to handle it. So with a 25 litre pot I added the correct amount stated for bio grow and mixed it right through with my perlite and soil then added a couple inches on top just for seedling stage as I dont want to burn her straight away so she has time to get through that little mantle before she needs food. NOW THIS HAS NEVER EVER EVER HAPPENED TO BATMAN BEFORE I cant stress that enough but straight up voodoo was performed by this greenhouse bio feed series. So as i stated earlier on i was gna drop the seed in that night well i was actually side tracked with work and didnt get to do it for two days later well anyways here is how the story goes. I used half a gram literally 0.5g of bio enhancer into 1 ltr of water and dropped in 1 Dark Phoenix and placed her in a nice dark warm cupboard. Now bear in mind I have done this method for like ever where I put them in water for 12 hours then place them out and on a wet paper towel and surely enough around a day or two later they sprout. Well not this time bitches I came back to her 12 hours later and her root was out by about 3 mil I went to work came home for lunch and her root was nearly half a inch so she had to go right in the soil. And low and behold the morning after and there she was staring up at me. Straight up witchcraft I can tell you guys now the only difference to my routine is that I added that wonderful bio enhancer so I'm guessing it was that cant be totaly sure until i try it again, so batmans dark Phoenix is on route and batman is smiling proud daddy. Would like to give another massive thanks to the guys at greenhouse seeds for putting their faith in me to do a decent enough job and for sending me the goodies to do it with I never differed from 420 fast buds but greenhouse always interested me there gens are amazing and hopefully I can do a good enough job. Stay tuned bat homies

Well guys ass you can see at the start of her 4th week I topped her again twice on top and twice down below that should give me 8 nice strong branches to get my nodes going but as everybody knows this I a major stress for the little lady not only has she just been topped a few days before now shes had a quadruple topping all in one his so as expected growth will be really slow this week or even 2 hopefully she will recover in no time. Slowly slowly catches the BAT🦇 She responded ok my little dark Phoenix wolverine watches anxiously on the sidelines I think he knows its gna have to be him to do the job in the end 😂. Cant wait to see her burst forth now that all major stresses have been dealt with nothing but growth and spacing from next week onward wish batman luck guys

Had to build a space for the ladies after the big move but looks like shes settling in fine, starting to widen out a little and drinking just a touch more. Gave her a trim mid week lower foliage and smaller nodes as this will give her more chance to feed her bigger branches and leaves, rather than maintain the rest of the lower growth that will only create smaller leafy,popcorn buds but all is running smoothly slowly slowly catches the Joker. And I'll let her take all the time she wants

All I can say about this week is I've done nothing but water her every 3 to 4 days and wow she has went through a little stretch as you can see batmans little.girl has started to get hairy, exiting times nothing much further to report apart from she seems to be happy with her 12/12 schedule her feed she is receiving I guess from the dose she had of the bloom awsome stuff really doing well for her.

Well another week of growth and progression. Havent had to do anything but water this little beauty. Keeping in kind I'm watering with a ph of 6.5 all the time I'm adding nothing else but the bio bloom and grow and that's it. IT'S really just self automated growing actually much easier than measuring out your nutes week by week so much so you get bored cause you have more free time to just water and wait. But anyways she stepped out of pre- flower this week hope to see some large stacking happen soon live to see the bud formation growing its awsome so far so good havent had a issue to write about so batmans happy all round

Shes just trucking along as batman has said before all I do is water her with Ph water and that's it all the nutrients were added to the soil so shes taking care of all that by herself. Batman cant wait to see some real bud growth hoping for a nice harvest considering shes just a single plant

No change on my part just watering when needed as the feed is already in the soil doing its job hopefully there will be enough to last as she has started to fade out a little now and I amended the soil or 8 weeks of food just as stated but she is looking very well her buds are stacking nicely but she is not over stretched very little stretch on her so her buds are quite close together but no bother I'm sure she will still smoke and taste just fine

Well guys and guys follow growmies this is her final.week I'd say judging from her trichomles milky white with a few touching amber sp I've gave her a major defoliation. Batman dont want it to heavy a smoke as I am always on the job keeping gotham safe, and the ability to have a smoke kick ass and keep my head still is what Batman is always aiming for really.🦇🤫 Well what can I say she has done really well indeed nothing but water and the greenhouse feeding program no fancy additives no bloom boosting nothing just mixed the feed withings the soil as directed and away she went so I practically fed her twice once from the start with greenhouse bio grow and a second time 5 weeks later with bio bloom. Actually never had so little input no micro managing nothing just watered her when she was needing it and to be honest I'm so surprised with her progression she may actually be one of the best I've grown since I've been in the new house. She has took on a nice shape with really fat colas, her smell is so strong at the moment overpowering lemonene massive scent of lemon, petrol and pine, and extremely sticky. Maybe I could of spaced her out alot more maybe veged her for another week or so just to get a few extra strong nodes. And maybe I will let her stretch out a little more as I didnt want to lose. Her like my banner before with over stretching so I chose to go tight and close with this one but the next run will be quite different as i may run multiple grows of a dark pheonix, but still thought she was actually amazing for a single plant disappointed I didnt get vibrant colours out of her but I could expect much more really as it's been a very warm last couple weeks but I'll get them dark purple and black hues next time for sure. Would like to thank greenhouseseeds for selecting me giving me the opportunity to sample their strain and feeding program which I can only say is awsome if your growing photo period that this feeding program is the way to go minimal efforts and great results could only imagine how they would perform with a little micro management and boosting but that's for the next few so guys I'll leave you with the knowledge that this beautiful dark pheonix will be going down in the next few days so from then on I'll post the harvest day and drying process, and then I'll post a report after the curing process.

Had really great fun training and growing her watched her from seed to full flower with pride, ease of growing with the feeding program was to easy basically all I had to do was water her. Unfortunately I've harvested her and left her hanging to dry and as ive had to go away for a few days and come back to discover I've been burgled and one of the main things stolen was my dark pheonix Harvest didnt even get to taste her to give a report but that wont stop batman I'll have to just start another as soon as possible. I wish everybody within the competition goodluck as I wont be able to place without a full harvest batman is devastated but hey ho that's life
