Technique
As of day 43 (November 13), the NYC Diesel has stopped stretching and is putting on weight throughout the buds. It is an important time for the plant, as the flowering is going to be critical for quality and yield, but it is also a little boring not having anything to do besides watch, water, and wait.
It's doing well with the nutrients so I am upping the phosphorus/potassium it is getting, and I am going to try to slightly lower the cal/mag to help reduce the nitrogen. I am continuing with the Armor Si as an extra potassium boost as well. I try my best not to overfeed, as I find the auto flowers with my lighting setup are sensitive to more agressive feeding schedules.
Day 46: did a small defoliation, will probably be the last.
Thanks for reading!

Grow Questions
Cheeba_Inustarted grow question 5 years ago
I am going to transition to using GH Flora series for my base nutrients, but I am not sure how much I should bother with their suppliments. Besides CalMag which I am adding, has anyone had good results with their bloom boosters, liquid silica, etc? Or is it a waste of money?

Iam nearly using more benefical stuff than "nutrients". I use Humic Acid ,Silica, enzymes, Molasses, Magnesium ,calcium, Asophyllum Nodosum spirulina, aloe etc....... This is stuff every living creature needs. If its a Animal a Pant or a Human beeing. These are major elements of our life. Iam using effective microorganisms and " living Organics" in my soil. I can see a big difference from the point i started to use and before. Plants are healthy strong and resiliant. They are very sticky, building lots of " sugar" looking healthy and happy. So in my opinion benefical stuff is great.

I have been experiencing some high temps (peak 29c in tent) I can't control. I have very good ventilation and my PH, nutrients, etc, are all good. My foliage is lightening to a more yellow-green, does it look like a heat stress problem or just normal old age (day 50 auto)?

If you are worried about the temps you can get hre " cold feet". Cooling down the roots is agood thing here. But in 29 i see a tmp that is not too bad. Feeding Kelp helps her to pull through too. If you are afraid . Maybe give her less hours with light so its colder. To me her colour is like a plant that age looks like. And a slightly defiency dont hurt anybody. Your PLant concentrates to flower, And i would not worry.

@Mrs_Larimar, thanks! The flowers are filling in decently. It's been dry here which cuts down on the smell, but I'm hoping it gets a bit more dank after the harvest/cure 🙂

Your Lady looks fine, you can give her colder roots in watering her more often/ but less. The hours of light you can reduce too.//

@Mrs_Larimar, thanks for the suggestion! The heat is tapering down so the worst is over at least.

P and K boost for the last flowering weeks works too very good.

@Mrs_Larimar, good to know! I like organic growing and have tried to keep some elements of it in my current Coco setup (using earthworm castings, molasses, etc) so I will try more beneficial bacterial/fungal suppliments in the future!

The liquid Koolbloom has made a noticeable improvement to my grow. other than that you really don't need any of the other stuff.

@Wicked_Stix, thanks for the info! I was considering it as a PK booster so I will keep that in mind. 👍

I noticed you didn't do a flush near the end but rather switched the feed. Wouldn't you still want to flush the plant ?

@Farmboyconnor, that sounds good! I am still dialing in the balance myself, too long a flush and you lose yield and too short means less benefits 🙂

@Cheeba_Inu, thanks for the advice . I'm using general organics like you were near the end . I'll most likely be doing 1 week flush if that's the case . Ppm run off right now is 350 , week 4 of flower

@Farmboyconnor, it was fed water only for about 4 days at the end which I would consider a shorter flush. But heavy/long (multi-week) flushes are less needed in my opinion if you're staying at a lower EC for fertigation, with plenty of runoff. The last week or so of biothrive bloom/cal-mag was at about a 0.6 going in and similar for the runoff. Normally I wouldn't switch the feed but I was experimenting with nutrient ratios heading right into the end.

Hey, if you’re looking to try new techniques you should check out Korean Natural Farming which uses fermentations to make bio fertilizers. Cheap and honestly it seems pretty awesome. Check the Paramount seeds website about LAB and elsewhere how LAB is part of KNF.
