there isn't much info on growcaps on their website, or anywhere..I'll just try it, keep a diary on the plant/plants, and hope that none of those veteran growers beat me up in that "contest"..

@Larimar, Hey I’m sorry for not replying here, Thank you. Yes I think it helps the plant by recovering some of the slow lost by bending her over. You will see the fan leaves petioles will stretch with the branch giving you the ability to keep the leaf and use its photosynthesis power to its branch whilst it still needs it. Once that branch has created leaves that overshadow the “primary” initial fan leaf you can then remove it as you can see in this weeks update :)

@Magich, I wouldn’t worry about veteran growers I’ve seen a Herm plant in the Top 10 before LMAO could get beat by a male plant who knows haha

What do you do to control the height of the vertical branches coming off of the horizontal manifold while you’re still manifoldIng?

@bobo420, I’ve grown the Black Domina part of it. And it was great for meds, got these beans for free and I’ve heard good words about the photoperiod. Haven’t seen any outstanding results of the auto yet but then again haven’t looked very hard :)

how do you rate the grow caps man? Someone handed me a plant a a couple months ago, it was all yellow and dying for lack of light and it was in a half liter pot. Brought it home after mad journeys and threw it in with some grow caps. 4 weeks later the whole top layer of soil was a gree moss so i took it out my tent. Four weeks later, today, it's been on my balcony - i water it once a week... it's getten 6hs of sun a day tops but it seems happy... it has some companion growths here and there randomly i'll throw some pictures up to join the @grow_caps competition... after all they sent us some ferts right ?

@CRiSPrGrow, and to be honest this experience using them is not great. Next year I will try again In the summer outdoor in pots of course we shall see how it goes :)

@CRiSPrGrow, looked for the diary but you don’t have 1 for it right? I think they may work better in a living soil. As there would be some interaction between beneficial bacteria and fungi.

@Me_and_my_bitch, Ty you 2 :) I’m happy quality wise for this Sugar Black Rose, quantity is not much I’m not sure how much because it’s not fully dry yet but will let you know I like the idea of grow caps. But I don’t know if the ratios are “perfect” Soil will always be my strong point though I’m still just a novice, I know that a strong micro life in soil makes for a good plant. Maybe if @growcapsrep added a beneficial bacterial and fungie pack alongside the polymers it may be that extra piece of the puzzle, just a thought. (In just getting into innoculation)✌️🏻

@ashcuk101, Great! Thanks for popping over. Go check out Hawkbo he’s a master topper. One of the best growers I’ve seen and tops autos all the time.

pH up/down is always a good idea, if the water in your region is no good.. the water where i live, is 7, or just below, which is perfect for me.. they say that it saves 30% water, so i guess there is a perlite-like effect to it also.. i know nothing about growcaps, i'm just gonna try it, adding nothing but water.

PharmaZcommented6 years ago

@Magich, Ph 7.4 here. Watering with 30% less water... I might fill up 6L water with 4L and drink 2L that way I’m not wasting that 30% I saved... 💡

Magichcommentedweek 46 years ago

Idk.. of course it is better for the plant.. i'm gonna try without adding anything at all..

PharmaZcommented6 years ago

@Magich, I was wondering... should I add perlite? Should I use Ph up/down? My tap water is 40ppm that’s soft as shit. Am I allowed to use calmag? Or do the polymers contain enough..? I have lots of questions too, not much info to go off I’m afraid. im just going to carry on the way I’m going. As I see it I’m adding water and Calmag to a percentage accepted as “normal water”

isn't it supposed to be growcaps only?

@Magich, Mykos were used for transplant, to reduce shock. And improve plant health they are not a nutrient they do not get added every feed it’s a 1 time amendment. What do you think I should do?

It depresses me how much nicer these look without topping/training. I almost regret doing it to mine, I’m still a newb so it scares me when I alter them. Are you planning on doing anything to train?

@LumberjackBuds, hey mate, I did reply to this message must not have sent. Yes I used to take a deep breath before doing it, but now I’m so confident I will end up with a shorter fatter plant. LST Definitley works for me! When I get my other tent up and running I will leave some plants grow natural with some leaf tucking only to compare. Like a side by side.✌️🏻
