Bolt 1 Objectives
- Well Rooted Seedlings in final Media
- RLA ‘Heavy’ Full Line @ stable EC Until Roots Established.
- We’ll Water Full at Lights on - Monitor day by day, to use the RLA Full Line through Bolt I.

- RLA Full Chart, Max EC: 1.5 until roots established in 1 Gal
- Weekly: Cytoplus or TM-7: [ 1.25, ml, gal] Through Bolt III

Replacing RLA Silica Skin with Mammoth Silica
Note: While Silica Skin is generally Reservoir Stable, it still leaves a patina on all surfaces after a few days. Switching to avoid build up in irrigation system.
- Mammoth-Silica: 0.5% Silica
- RLA Silica Skin: 4% Silica
This suggests that equivalent Dosage of Mammoth-Silica requires 8x the amount of Silica Skin. (Can this be right?)
Mammoth-Silica’s recommendation is [ 0.5, ml, gal] for normal use.
Potassium Carbonate: pH Up
* Approximate Amount: To raise pH by 2 units from 5.0 to 7.0, a rough estimate might be:
0.1 to 0.3 grams of K₂CO₃ per liter could be a starting point. This range accounts for the fact that you might need more than the stoichiometric calculation due to the incomplete conversion of CO₃²⁻ to OH⁻ and the buffering nature of water.
- [ ] Do we need an additional Veg Week? (Root Development/4.4 L Airpots) If not FLIP
Note: We’ve been feeding ~10% of pot volume per day (100 ml), 50 ml @ Lights on & 50 ml @ Start + 8 hours
Moving to 4.4 Liter Airpots - we’ll be UP TO 440 ml/day - or 4x 110 ml/day.
- [ ] FIND THE TIMING REQUIRED TO DELIVER! (IRRIGATION Time to deliver 110 ml per plant)
Based on 5 ml/sec measured delivery rate, with 25% Overage built in.
Testing was performed with emitters about a foot below actual, so I anticipate a slower delivery rate.
Installed Cable Organizing sleeves on Irrigation line to tent at points susceptible to crimping (Sharp Bends).

Note: We’d Like Phosphorous Boosted through Bolt, AND THEN Calcium Boost for a week of flower.

LIGHT is POWERFUL. I’ve been a little heavy on the PPFD Gas Pedal.
Backing off, leaf color evens across all plants - difference in saturation between margins and veins reduced

Goal is to increase light while maintaining even color over leaf surfaces..
Humidity Control - Dark Tent
2024-12-22T16:49:06-0600:
- Environment
- Temp: 72°F
- RH 65%
- VPD: 0.94 (Calculated from Actual Temp, no LST Correction)
Lowered Trigger RH to 61%. Fans Increased to 7, and Humidity rose to 68%.
Modified Sea of Green (mSOG)
Tent: 8 sq feet
Grow: 8 1 Gallon Containers, 2 Colas per Container, 16 colas per grow, 1 Oz / Cola Goal
- 4oz - 5 oz/plant Wet (20 - 25% of Wet Weight is Dry Weight)
- 1 oz/Plant Dry
Standard Sea of Green (SOG)
- 1 Cola / Plant
- 12/12 Lighting throughout grow
- High Frequency (low volume) Fertigation
Documented highest yield per sq ft.
The Modification
- 8 - 1 Gal Containers, 1 sq. Ft canopy/plant, Light Cycle 18/6
- Two Colas per plant (With this cultivar - NICELY FILLS 1 sq Ft)
- Top Plants ONCE to Node 3 when we have at least 6 nodes have grown
- Start 12/12 AFTER first topping.
- Rationale
- There’s a balance between ROOT DEVELOPMENT and FLOWERING QUICKLY. A key determinant of FLOWER size is the amount of root development @FLIP
- By vegging through 6 nodes, we assure adequate population of roots in the 1 Gal Airpot (Evidence of roots emerging across bottom of container, and at the lowest side ports of the Airpot - BEFORE FLIP). This step is KEY.
- Principle (an assumption): The ultimate production of a plant in mSOG is proportional to the root volume established at flip.
- Speed requires we have full (but not yet dense) population of roots - suggesting that once we have root coverage at the periphery of the pot, sides and bottom - we flip.
- As production is proportional to Canopy space, there is a theoretical yield maximum that space can produce. More tops WILL NOT produce more WEIGHT If the Tops are competing for canopy space. We need to know, for a particular cultivar, how many TOPS will optimally fill a 1 Sq Ft space.
- In testing with Lemon Jeffery [IRIE Genetics], One Cola and Four Colas we’ve found that 1 TOP/sq ft is insufficient (yield a little more than 1/2 the theoretical), 4 Colas TOO many (Uneven stacking of flowers - gaps in colas, indicating competition with its siblings.)
- One Topping, two Colas seems about right for this space and this cultivar. Applying to it’s Cousin here, Orange Gasm [IRIE Genetics]
Terminal EC Increase
