Another care free week. I had to elevate lighting as stretch brought flowers too close to the light. I was able to use ties to secure the lighting to the top of the tent with the cross piece supports and provided the girls another foot or so grow room. Stretching quite a bit after scrogging and training the branches to provide a continuous canopy throughout the 3 x 3. I also defoliated the larger leaves but as you can see, we are maxed out and I will need to defoliate again to provide light and ventilation. Have fan underneath the canopy to provide fresh air and to prevent conditions conducive to mold as the heat and humidity is a little high for flower. Flower development and stacking continues. The second environment is also flowering beautifully and side branching has continued through the grow after topping. Although smaller than the plants in the first tent, flower development and stacking is continuing as well. This week I provided a new product to top drench the earth boxes. Thrive Probiotics Yah-Whey. Whey from kefir grains have a complex microbial biology composition with polysaccharides, nutrients, minerals and proteins. These fermented compounds create a diverse probiotic whey for your plants and soil. The girls both started praying after providing a very small amount as a top drench, 1/2 oz. to a gallon of water. I used a ratio less than what is recommended and came out with spectacular health and vigor. Will use this as a regular routine going forward. Noticed my girl in tent 2 looked hungry. Gave her some Thrive Probiotics Yah-Whey and some BlueGold®️ Fusion FLWR 7-4-2 and Neptune's Harvest Hydrolyzed Fish 2-4-1 and horticulture coconut with rain water to feed her with a drench.
Hey there Marc, you got some nice plants there! it seems like they are missing something though!
I dont know what nutrients you are using but if you ever get tired of having to adjust ph and add bottled nutrients then i can show you are one for all solution, its a dry amendment (sort of), it contains all you need for microbial life aswell. Its called FLO - Florian's Living Organics.
Very easy to use and i have had a great experience with it. All you have to with it is mix this one dry amendment with soil and just water with regular water.. The pH adjusts itself.
reason im giving you this tip is because i saw how much stuff you use for nutrients, so maybe it would be nice with a more simple 100% organic solution.
check out my recent diary where im using it from seed to harvest.
Happy growing! 😎
@Earthling37,
Maybe you confused me with someone else, or perhaps you are attempting to sell a product. This grow is completely organic and sourced by Build a soil. It's a no till water only type of grow that relies totally on microbes. Cheers!
I’m sitting on these exact seeds MarcGrows…. You’ve certainly have done well with them….what a beautiful grow!!
It appears that the 10 week “max flowering time” on their website is accurate. Best of luck with the rest of your grow.
