Mar 24: nice looking plant. Leaves don’t seem quite the right shade of green so maybe I need more N. Replaced broken pH meter so hopefully that helps too.
Mar 25: morning was first use of Extreme Blend from Kelp4less as a foliar spray at 1 tsp per US gallon, and this is only needed weekly. Should last quite a while at that rate. Pics from evening.
Mar 26: repotted into 5 gallon bag with soil, compost and worm castings. Also a handful of dolomite lime and probably could have added more. Looks better 24 h after first Extreme Blend.
Mar 28: first use of sprouted popcorn seed tea (20 mL/L). Some as foliar and watered in. The shade of green looks better again after repotting and the Extreme Blend spray three days ago.
Mar 29: banana peel tea (not needed yet on these plants but oh well), Azomite and Epsom salts as a 700 ppm foliar spray.
@NorthernChemist, yeah, and I’ve stumbled upon this great way to do the staking. Starting poles are at close to 45 degrees rather than vertical and it makes all the difference. Bamboo cross pieces are easily friction fit and not really carrying a load. Seems stable with the peony ring still in place and seems to work.
@NorthernChemist, yeah I like it. Seems like the best way to handle photoperiods both indoors and out. This was a 16 cola attempt, and the later start photoperiods I will keep to 8 colas. This certainly maximizes cloning opportunities.
@MiyaguiOkPolilla; you’re welcome.. Yes, sodium, and going a step further it’s actually the ratio of sodium to Cal-mag (sodium adsorption ratio, SAR). My well water has super high SAR which is very bad for the soil.
@Northern_Ent, oh, muchas gracias por esa info. Nunca me he fijado realmente en los niveles de sodio, pero me imagino lo malo que puede llegar a serlo tanto como para nosotros 🍀🍀🍀
@JohnnyBarrel, yeah it’s looking great. Bubble OG is actually the biggest of the three big manifolds, followed by Candyland and then this one. This is a God Bud cross so it should be good. Cheers.
