11/4-11/10 11/4: Buds still look pretty immature. They are very dense. Still at least two more weeks to harvest. 11/5: I took som scope pics. My scope stand broke and I'm holding it in my hand, which make it tough to get a stable image. This is the best I could do. Anyway, not seeing any amber and few cloudy trichs, so looks like we have some time. 11/5: Watered with Recharge, ArmorSi, and CaliMagic in recommended amounts. Temps: 66F @ night; 76F @ day RH: ~50% on average. It goes up and down a little bit, but never over 55 or under 45. I'm hand watering every 3-4 days. It's actually easier than using the pot bases or Blumats. Here's my plan for the future: Grow Dots + hand water. You're not mixing nutrients most of the time, so hand watering only takes five minutes. I will use the ACI pot bases as runoff catchers for hand watering, and I can fill them if I need to go out of town. That turns out to be the easiest, lowest touch grow method I've found (if you don't want to set up an electrical auto-watering system, which I do not). I have zero complaints about the Grow Dots so far, and it's hard to imagine them fucking anything up at this point because the buds are just maturing and don't need many nutrients. I won't add any more Si or CalMag after the next water (and it's probably overkill that I'm doing it anyway). I would love to do a side-by-side comparison of Grow Dots/Recharge vs. some high-end nutrient regimen. I know the Grow Dots aren't really anything special (basically Ozmocote tweaked for weed plants). Aroma review: The last strain I grew was Girl Scout Cookies. The plants grew exactly as advertised: They were peppery and grassy, very warm, welcoming and cozy. One of my favorite buds. The Glookies is definitely NOT that. The current aroma is an aggressive sweetness that made me think of strawberry Kool-aid packets. Maybe that's not quite right, but it's very fruit-forward. Not really citrus--sweet not tangy. I'm not saying it's bad--it's really nice. It's still not mature, so I'm sure the aroma will soften and develop more nuance.

Does anyone see any problems with the CO2 supplementation station I made (see video in Week 11 of this journal)? I'm going to watch carefully for overflows. Curious if it's enough to make a difference.

Beware that distributors will typically only exchange their own tanks. They won't exchange tanks you bought on Amazon or something.

My experience with CO2 reactors in aquariums have not been very good. It is usually inconsistent and not worth the trouble. The only time I achieved good results were after I got a small tank and diffused it into the water using a regulator and air stone. There is a little bit of an up front investment for the tank and regulator, a 5 or 10 lb tank isn't very expensive. When they are empty you swap them out for a full one, refills are pretty cheap. You can get them from a welding supply store like Airgas or LInde. They need a specific regulator (most Argon and CO2/Argon mixture tanks use a regulator with a male connector, C02 regulators use a female and need a plastic washer that fits inside the fitting. Gas distributors give the washers out for free and usually have a little dish full of them at the counter). Lots of people use CO2 for flux core welding and in beer taps.

For a smallish room and a few months, you need something like 30lbs of sugar to boost into the 1000-1300 range. size of room matters. rate of co2 released from the reaction of yeast and sugar can be used to determine a good guesstimate of PPM added to the space. you know the moles release per time increment then convert to ppm with the space involved. the more tightly sealed the area is th emore accurate the math will be -- also the less often you open it up etc. this is easily calculated with a few google searches. i'll leave that to you. it doesn't have to be an unknown or guess... if you don't want it to be.

I read online that if you mix silica with other nutrients it decreases nutrient bioavailability. However, the directions on the side of the bottle of GH ArmorSi recommend mixing the silica and nutrients together. Who's right?

You can but always add the silica first and mix well

Plants need very little silica. Regardless of what AN instructs, i'd do some research for more educated answers than you'd get from the peanut gallery. AN has a habit of being a greedy little punk bitch manufacturer... splitting things into 10+ products when you could mix it into 2 or 3 safely. There's no need for 12 bottles of various fertilizers and supplements.. that's just greedy/predatory business practices. looks like soil typically contains 14-40 ppm out in the wild.. that doesn't mean it is optimal, but will correlate well, i bet. Using vermiculite can add available silica to your substrate, too

That's a great use for those bases, I'm gonna have to try that next run. Am interested to see how they work for you, I tried with soil and was not great success, but I'm pretty certain it was mostly because my substrate was not nearly airy enough. Cheers!

I am in need of a watering system. The bluemat is appealing but scares me that it keeps it wet. What about mold, pests, gnats? It scares me. I grow in coco and always allow a dryback so the roots push to find water. Although I've been advised to not do this and to keep them soaked daily. This person swears by it and with 90 diaries on here and a YouTube his result verify his claims. What's your thoughts on the bluemat? Would you prefer a normal water system with a pump and it drain to waste? Thats another thing I'm used to runoff daily and checking the ppms. Do you do this with bluemats? They seem convient but I've not seen massive harvest with them yet although I've truly not looked hard enough yet. I've spent little time searching about them. Any advice is appreciated growmie. Good luck, and keep us posted on the co2. I'm also interested In something similar! ✌️

@WoEsWar, something like that is exactly what i was thinking of doing. To do enough for 10 plants in 2x 4x4s it was nearing or over $300 for that I could get floraflexs automatic watering with the bases that allow for drainage. I might just do that. Unfortunately they sell the kit for only pairs of 2 and 3. For example kit for 4. Kit for 6. Kit for 9. I need one for 5. Guess I could modify one. I'm going to have to set down and design a system that allows for runoff. Idk how to check runoff for individual plants in a system like this. To my knowledge it all runs together into one big tray for runoff.

@@DoughHead, I've had the best results with coco/perlite plus "high frequency fertigation" (https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/). However, it's a pain in the ass to hand water multiple times a day. The pot bases + blumats were my attempt to reduce how much work I had to do (that along with the Grow Dots, which have been fine so far). This is my first grow with them. I thought that in combination they would keep a whole 5-gal moist. So far, it has been a combination of being a little too wet or a little too dry. I haven't been able to get them to work together as well as I'd hoped. The problem is that as the plant grows, it changes and its water needs change. I think Grow Dots + hand watering is the way I'll go next time. If I have to go out of town, I would feel confident using the pot bases or the Blumats. They're good to have around. If I was designing from the ground up and had the room to do it, I'd try an automatic watering system like this: https://www.cocoforcannabis.com/guide-to-automatic-watering-systems-for-indoor-cannabis/
