Second plant of perpetual grow! Finally! Discovered the problem getting going; new bag of soil with some bugs that liked to eat seedling roots. Had a bit left in an older bag and no issues now. Will include all details once plant is transplanted and topped. Photos taken 7 days after breaking soil

Progressing nicely. Took a little longer to bounce back after topping from what I have grown used to. Feeding lightly with calmag as I am using RO water. Third plant of perpetual grow broke soil today... went with Ethos Cherry Garcia (from multipass). Photos/video taken 28 days after breaking soil

She was thirsty this morning and watered not too long before update; hence not completely perky. Working on heavy LST to make best use of space when it gets moved to flower tent. Unsure how long I’ll keep her in veg. Photos/video taken 35 days after breaking soil

Interesting week; she’s packing on and the trichromes are getting cloudy. She has been on a regular watering schedule (every other day) for awhile now. Woke up yesterday and a handful of branches were nearly parallel to floor. Using some plant yoyos (for first time) so prevent that happening again. Will begin the flush at next watering.

My best grow to date. The taste and smell are incredible. The nugs are nicely formed and dense! She is an anytime smoke. No hiccups while growing; only negative is she does have a few seeds. ~1.5 oz trim/larf in freezer for bubble hash.

Can you message me on Instagram @teekoe if not Instagram then my snap chat is @sneakyteeky or my email is officialteekoemusic@gmail.com I need ur help with legit one or two questions that you will legit save me with I got 5 plants of this exact strain and source on the line please. Message me.

emeraldlabscommented4 years ago
@teekoe, so say I watered twice a week, monday would have nutrients and friday would not. But the monday and friday schedule may not be what’s best for your plants. Water them when they are thirsty, not on a set schedule.
teekoe
teekoecommented4 years ago
@emeraldlabs, and you say the nutrients all add up into the One liter each week. So do you do 0.5 liters Monday then 0.5 liters Friday? Or do you pour the whole liter on monday then wait til next Monday to feed again? Also I’m growing 5 of these plants so will that matter? Can I still use ur charts/methods for my plants? This is my first grow sorry if I sound inexperienced.
teekoe
teekoecommented4 years ago
@emeraldlabs, how many times do I water a week with the nutrients? Like do I use the water with the nutrients in it Monday and Friday and feed with normal water in between? Or what? I don’t wanna over feed or under feed. I’m using distilled water to make room for the nutrients I’ll be using (the ones you listed) I have the same strain btw same source too. Ilgm is dope.
