Mephisto: Sour St.xForum St. (Octopot)

The first week using the Octopot was a breeze. I've read that the first week or two of growth can be pretty rough as the roots keep seeking the water, but she's moving along just like my past soil grows. It'll be interesting to see if this growing method delays flowering as some have said. . . . 👉🏽Day 8 (12/6): Added a gallon to the reservoir on Day 7, and everything is steady. 👉🏽Day 13 (12/11): First feeding with nutrients. Added a gallon of water with the addition of CalMag and Sensi Bloom A&B--both at a low dose (.95 ml/gal). Level indicator was just below one line, and is now at about 2.5. If she responds well, I'll add another gallon on Day 14 or Day 15 to top off the reservoir. 👉🏽Day 14 (12/12): Responding pretty well to the first feeding, and I've dialed back the lights to 20/4. (I'll move it down to 18/6 later in few days.) Some root ends have poked through the grow bag, and the roots are strong in the lower 1/3 of the bag. Pretty exciting! Next reservoir fill: Sensi Bloom A&B (.95 ml/gal or higher, depending on reaction), CalMag (1.9 ml/gal), Voodoo Juice, Mammoth P, and Orca. Discontinue Voodoo Juice: Around Day 20. Thanks for dropping by! 🖖🏽🌿
