Week 6: The most developed plant (always pic 1 in the mugshots) showing heavy symptoms of deficiency. I started feeding it with mixture of molasses and coffee grounds. I will add chicken pellets too.
day 36: The most deficient plant got a high dosage of nutrients today, now some leaves are craving for the sky again. I will hold on to this level of external nutrition in different constellations (coffee grounds, molasses, chicken shit, guano). Removed the leaves to keep transpiration higher to get the nutrient problems fixed.
day 38: Still deficiency symptoms, the largest plant suffering the most. I enlarge and enrich the nutrients.
day 39: The leaves are craving for the sky again. The most def plant continues yellowing so i gave her something really strong todax. Also added Wurmgold for instant nitrogen.
day 40 It's my first auto grow. Since i read bout less nutrient consumption cause of reduced lifecycle with autos i was to thrifty when mixing the soil.
day 42: End of week 6 and still got some time to go. I got into trouble using the coffee ground solution as a main supply for Nitrogen (the plants yellowed so i had to water to much) so i replaced it with my urine using a concentration of ~ 520 ml/l. According to a web research i found it to have a concentration of Nitrogen of around 50 % (instantly availaible) in urine. The plants regenerate. As long as i have a lil crop everything is okay. The intend why i'm trying this is that i don't want to use fancy fertilizers with colorful pics of elefants and stuff on it causing a huge CO2 imprint in the atmosphere. I mean everyone can do that... The plan is to only use waste to produce my weed and have a circulatory. Eating, preparing waste. use it as fertilizer. Harvest plants and use this waste also for compost, bokashi or worm castings.

5 AB+ fem plants organic grow in 6.5 l pots.
3 phase medium (amount per plant):
- 1l early grow (mix: 1/2 used soil from last grow + 1/2 no peat tomato soil + 1 hand full of my organic super bloom mix[ OHSB])
- 2 l grow (mix: 10l tomato soil + 3 l OHSB + 1 hand full of crushed chicken shit pellets)
- 3.5 l hot soil (mix: 15 l tomato soil + 5 l OHSB + ash + 2 hands chicken pellets)
OHSB consists of used up soil from last grows, enriched with worm humus, guano, ash, coffee grounds, primal rock flour, Ghassoul.
I'm changing/experimenting with different ingredients from time to time. Sometimes I add a Mykorrhiza/Trichoderma mix.
This time, as i'm dealing with autos, I decided to not use guano, and instead compensate with a mix of just chicken pellets and ash. I'm sure one can compensate the guano somehow for a regular grow as well.
I will add some Guano and more ash during flowering stage, if needed. Maybe also Molasses.
Dosing the ingredients I roughly follow the suggestions from GK and so also for the ash even though I have my own one (wood ash).
