Rosetta Stone XX -VT Micro 2'x4'x5'

Week five now & on day 29. Thelma and Larry had 7 full internodes developed at this point. Topped at the fourth internode a few days ago as my standard seed/plant crafting process. I remove only the lowest most branch {single leaf branch} and cut below the fifth internode, leaving six full branches, (3 internodes) these extras bottom branches are used later for cloning & mother plants for the next runs. Love how fast the plants respond to this technique of topping to build out. A few days after topping they were transplanted into 1 gallon containers. This LOVELY Rosetta Stone XX strain seems to need more nutrition than the “CBD Painkillers” clones I have been growing for the last three years. Been awhile since the pleasure of growing from seeds thanks to DC Seed Exchange. These Rosetta Stones XX’s are fast easy growing for soil dwelling girls. Exciting to run new hardware like this from Mr. Soul. Thelma and Larry are big ladies that seem to grow very well in this micro organic crafting environment. Temps at a constant 78 with RH 42-50, and a fresh flow of this good old blessed cool Vermont air. Feeding a bit earlier (3 weeks earlier) than usual after noticing slight slowing in week fives growth. So “ReCharge” is added in with the Roots Organic Buddha Liquid fertilizer at 1 tsp. per gallon as a bit of a cheat I use unsparingly and with ridiculously fast results in situations like this. Situation cured immediately! Observe, observe, and observe again. My motto: “One is none, two is one, and three always gets it done!” Fed these ladies the feeding formula form the Roots Organic Buddha line liquids fertilizer schedule found online. Have modified the Roots Buddha recipe a tiny bit to fit plants needs over the last few years with great success. The modification is using 15 ml of any of the lucky seven Buddha’s products I use in any feeding instead of the 5ml to 15ml ranges they have suggested. Have a feeling the LED makes the plants eat more or perhaps it’s the micro growing environment with the classical music playing all the time. HACK: I use those little kids medicine cups for dispensing the Buddha fertilizers into their mixing containers, as they are the perfect size at 15 ml (3tsps). This online feeding schedule modified has served me well over the last three years. Never have I bubbled or PH’ed the Roots Organic Buddha line nutrition solution to swing the PH up...it goes mercilessly straight into the dolomite lime sweetened soil. Ph’ing with a pen will unnecessarily keep you up at night like a baby with a sore tooth. The ph reading will show the organic stinky nutrition solution at a scary 4.2 ph or even lower at watering time...Don’t sweat it!...Toss that damn PH pen out! The run off comes out at a scary 5.5 ph too...again....DONT SWEAT IT! Mama will come and change your poop dipper, as long as you limed! My plants leaves never wilt during these waterings to note too. If watering your plants stresses them to cause wilting and severe falling of fan leaves for longer than a few hours, something is up. Every soil tests done in these micro grows shows a perfect 6.8 every time to boot. This is in the trenches info. Dolomite lime, clean and naturally balanced water, plus a strong microbial soil environment is the secret that keeps me free of ph worries, ph pens, time wasting ph’ing, buying chemicals to balance, and growing fluctuations. Add your dolomite lime at 1 Table spoon per gallon of organic soil a few weeks before using the soil. This fires up, awakens the soil, and naturally balanced out the ph so your plants have the best shock free settings. Only five weeks til these two ladies replace the two flowering ladies in the 12/12 micro cabinet. Exciting to have a change of hardware after a 3 year run of “CBD Painkiller” by Royal Queen Seeds 2016 stock. Even more excited to be running Mr. Souls hardware. Have fun, be safe, and help one another.
