Yeah after every 2 feedings I use 6.5 ph water and make sure I have around 10% run off. I just ordered a tds meter tonight. The ph entries in my diary are the ph of my runoff each week. I feed at 6.2-6.3 and water at 6.5 so I dont know how its turning into 5.7 when it comes out.

@OutForReal, that makes sense but I see how it is complicated. I need to start learning the science behind all these things I do so I can truly understand what to do, when to do it and why it needs to be done. I might have to mess around and read a book. I swore I'd never do that ever.

OutForRealcommented6 years ago

@Beans,I can't real explain how Ph is working in coco but what I know is that when the plant is sucking nutrients from the coco she also contibuate to change the nutrients amount in coco so ph will go down. For exemple if she use a lot of NP but not so much K then the ph can go up ( Potassium do that ) the opposite (ph down) if the phosphorus amount is high. I tried to make it clear but it's a bit "messy" 😁👍

There are videos on youtube that show how to wash (3 steps) your buds to remove bugs, dust, mildew, etc. Don't beat yourself up over it. You had an awesome grow! All growers fail sometimes, every one! Learn from your mistakes and move on. I'm looking forward to your next grow!

@BeefWellingtons, I already got the next batch in the flower tent and I'm on the verge of returning the super glue to an adequate state of hydration again!

My gut is telling me it's time but my lack of knowledge is making me indecisive....how about a vote? Based on trichomes and mite complications who thinks I should harvest asap and who thinks I should wait? I'll put up lots of pics.

Thanks for the reassurance I'm on the right path. Best of luck with your grows and I'll be following along.

Hey beans, what’s the EC of the run off? Can’t see you having any major issues she looks well healthy... Have you poored plain water through to see if it leaches anything out?

@PharmaZ,I hadn't thought of that but they are up on thin metal plant stands inside the tray. Probably 2 inches off the tray with plenty of airflow underneath. I gave them 7.2 water tonight with no run off. .5 gal each. I thought that was a solid strategy for today at least. Maybe finish the week with that and go from there? It just doesnt make sense to me and its driving me crazy lol

@Beans, it could be that you have some algae growth under the pot. Could you try and lift the pot up very carefully sand suspend it with something that allows airflow underneath. Algae and bacteria can cause ph swings

@PharmaZ, the 1st grow they looked fine too. No symptoms of anything and my trays for run off barely fit under the pot. With the scrog it was a nightmare to get in there. I had to use a pipette that came with my nutes and suck the runoff out .5 tsp at a time. It took a couple hours to do them both. I have better access this time and use a turkey baster for the bulk of it.

Hi bro !! Don't forget to tell us how does that hard rock dry bud taste like !? Is it a stone or a high effect ?😁

@OutForReal, mine is more inwardly focused. As a general rule I think people are morons and give less than 0 shits what other people think about me. I accept everybody for who they are and the flaws they have. Nobody is perfect and that's what makes everybody unique.....except for me. That makes me a dumb piece of crap that needs to be less crappy and dumb at everything lol. It might seem a little ridiculous but its totally not at all. It's fair and reasonable and impossible and it barely sounds like the dumbest thing anybody has ever said. If I wasnt such a piece of crap I could've said it dumber!😂😂😂 I'm just joking around but I really am way too hard on myself and need to chill that shit out. Lol

@Beans, Mate we'v got the same insomnia issue so I'm happy you'v found a good strain to help you sleeping. Anxiety is a hard thing to deal with but I get rid of mine once I started to care less about anybody's words 😁👊

@OutForReal, it actually tasted good. I was surprised since I was dealing with the high ppm runoff. I didnt really taste anything on the inhale it was when I blew it out. Kind of minty/piney if I remember right. 1 hit each got my girlfriend and I loaded for about 2hrs. It was relaxing and everything was funny and awesome but we didnt get off the bed and it was a struggle staying awake at times. Hopefully that paints a picture. I have a bit of an anxiety problem and trouble getting to sleep and it made me forget anxiety existed along with what I was talking about in the middle of my sentences lol.

I know how you feel with the mites. I got the same kick in the nuts. How bad is it? I've set loose some predatory mites despite my plant being close to harvest too.

@BillMonroe, that really sucks man. We can be "Nut Buddies" and cuss about stupid fucking mites together! I commented the other day but it must not have saved. My phone is acting up. I think the alcohol at a 1:1 ratio would have worked if I was able to spray all parts thoroughly.

Beanscommented6 years ago

@BillMonroe, I didnt think it was that bad but I had defoliated probably about to the max then had to remove quite a bit cuz it was either too damaged or couldnt get to it with the alcohol spray. I'll spend a couple hours eradicating them then the next day I think I finally got em then the next day they turn around and get me. It sucks!

@CRiSPrGrow, thanks bro. It actually might work out to where I can harvest on my sister B-day who is also no longer with us. If it works out close I might just make that an annual thing. I got a memorial tattoo for each of them. 1 on each arm. It would be bad ass to start flower then harvest on their bdays!

Had to harvest the gorilla due to small amount of rot. My balls ache too brother. Looking prime never the less. Looking forward to the dry pics expressing that incredible THC production. Awesome work never the less. Get yourself some benneficial bacteria, you should try CapsTea or Hesinberg recipes. Both will help ward off mites, neem oil in the medium in veg plus silica they won’t even have a chance (no spraying anything ever needed) ✌️🏻

@PharmaZ, damn it bro that sucks about your gorilla! I'm anxious for it to dry so I can get a weight on it. I'm just hoping I'm not super disappointed with the yield. I'll try the neem oil. I had been using silica all the way up until I got freaked out about my ppm then I stopped.......oddly enough the timeline actually fits almost perfectly. Maybe I could use silica 1 watering a week?

@CRiSPrGrow, tried it last night and it kicked my ass 👍

PharmaZcommentedweek 96 years ago

I would make a solution of H2O2 and soak the bottom of the pot. Then raise it and scrub the bottom of the pot to remove dead roots. Feed with H2O2 no enzymes. Then next feed use enzymes ditch the h2o2✌️🏻

fly trap sticky tape just put like 6 at various heights, should get rid of em in a week or two - you wanna catch them before they lay eggs right? that's why it takes time sticky tape is the best for that
