Starting wk 4
Still recovering from my water getting out of whack. Ph and solids were out of control. I was only using 1 gallon in the reservoir, now there is 2. Easier to make adjustments.
Still growing much faster than the control plants or it's siblings which were repotted last week.
Have a problem containing the roots in the cup. Today I added a disc of some sort of synthetic fiber felt like material, we'll see how that works.
Everybody in the room in soil got a healthy dose of liquid Sevin in the dirt and Neem Oil sprayed on the leaves. The plants are NOT happy. Kind of like my dog taking a bath, very sad. They'll get over it.
I think it's time I look at a more complete nutrient plan.
Nice looking setup. I was running some 16 oz dutch buckets but had to trash my grows. If you are looking for an easy, complete nutrient try maxigro and maxibloom. It's cheap it works great and it holds steady ph. Good luck!
@@@HiddenColorado,
Never thought I'd win, but by gosh, I'm trying something new because of the challenge. And it's definitely challenging. Also, I was kind of a late entry. Wish I would have noticed the challenge sooner. My roots this week protruded from the cup, trying something new to contain them. I'm sure some would say " DQ!" Right away. So be it. Some might say "get it under control", and that is what I'm going to do. If I fail to get the roots to stay in the cup this week, I have 1 more idea, but may call it quits on this challenge. But I will continue this grow as though I was still in because I am learning tons of things.
