Currently at day 11 from sprout. I grew four different strains on my last grow and fell in love with the dream factory from Exotic Genetix so much that I decided to grow 4 of their cultivars. This grow will be a slight bit different from my last. I purchased 4 AC Infinity self watering bases to put my fabric pots on. I also decided to downsize my pots from 5 gal down to 1 gal. The reason for this is to try and keep the bottom part of the pots saturated. On the last grow I had some issues during the first 3 weeks of flower where my roots expanded to areas that had little or no nutrients in the medium and this causes some tip burn and leaf issues. I also scrapped the 800 bottles that are part of the Advanced Nutrients lineup I exaggerate but its a lot of bottles and its a pain in the ass. I chose to go with more of a basic approach and instead of buying fancy bottles I am going with just Jacks Hydro with Calcium Nitrate and Epsom added. I am also using Powersi original during veg, and Powersi bloom during flowering. The plan is to feed with jacks and start at 1/4 strength and work my way up to 80% strength which equates to 3g jacks, 2 grams calcium nitrate, and 1 gram epsom salt. Once the roots reach the bottom of the 1 gal pots, I plan on only adding the jacks mixture to the self watering base. Every couple weeks, I will top feed a microbe mixture consisting of 2ml tribus, 5 g real growers recharge, 1 tbsp blackstrap molasses, and 1 tbsp of Neptune's Harvest Kelp 0-0-1. Once the plants are 12 inches tall and have at least 6 or 7 nodes I will top for the first time above the 5th node. I will then wait 7 to 10 days and top those 2 shoots, then wait 7 to 10 days more and top the 4 shoots for a total of 8 main colas per plant. I also top the side branches if they grow to tall and start outgrowing the topped mains. As they grow I will use plant ties for LST and super cropping to keep my canopy even. I will be following a modified VPD schedule again on this grow since it worked really well on the last grow. Here is the feed schedule I plan to follow https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/wp-content/uploads/wpforo/attachments/7164/55453-JACKS-3-2-1.pdf

@SegaYGriega, Thanks I did much better on this grow than my current grow. I'm gonna blame it on megacrop 2 part hahaha, most likely it was user error on my part but I went back to Jack's 123 a few weeks ago and will stick with that for the future

This journal is now finished. Final dry weight yield for all 4 plants was 812 grams which I am absolutely thrilled about. Quality is better than last batch but still not quite at the point I wanna get to, maybe I'm being picky but we all have to have goals and mine is to produce consistent dank nuggets on every grow, for now I'll have to settle for 50% dankness and about 50% mids
