Dr. Kripplings' The Incredible Bulk

gnome Neem oil for mite control

gnome Finally finished 2nd defoliation , switched to bloom fertilizer , everythings doing good.

gnome Added small amount of bloom booster granular with beneficial bacteria around base, used 2 large scoops of scotts bloom booster, and kelp4less extreme blend then refilled reservoir with lucas formula @ 420 ppm. Went in @ 450 ppm and recycled run off was 1040 ppm. No signs of mites or any other issues, should be 2 weeks till they really fill in nice.

gnome Hand watered mix of potassium sulphate , aspirin, brassinolide kelp4less extreme blend. Nuked my moon flower vine in the veg area due to spider mite resurgence. Neem oiled veg and sprayed and tossed my moonflower. No sign of mites on veg nor bloom. Little over 2 weeks left to go!

gnome Just finished a 3 day flush , ph was going in at 5.9 @ 450 ppm run off was ph 4.0 @ 1050 ppm. Flushed with about 150 gallons of tap water ph 8 , on 3rd day ph 5.9 @ 720 ppm run off 5.6 @ 515. Ran out of propane so co2 was off for 2 days and i kept the light on through the whole flush. Back to 12/12 now with co2 @ 1000 ppm. Few light stress spots here and there some calcium necrosis but everything looks well enough. They looked ok before flush but with the salt build up and low ph run off plus they wernt as developed as i normally see at week 8. Should kick back nicely the bulk is a forgiving strain.

gnome Added 600w hps to add heat as well as extra light to under side of canopy on one side. Fed raw npk potassium with flora bloom @ 50 ppm total tds 550ppm. Ph 5.6ish also gave little more kelp4less extreme blend (amino,kelp,humic,fulvic). Decent purpling few ph swing spots but looking good getting fatter. Def. Behind by maybe half week.

gnome Not as much as i can do , had low ph from combo of salt build up and need to run an enzme to help break down old roots. Organic bloom booster didnt help ph either but thats hind sight for you.
