Going to be on a week or so more days of feedings until they start their flush. Toofless alien #1 will be the first to start her flush in 4 days and will get two more nutrient feeds mainly with pk and carbs like the others. The plants did not get as big as id hoped for but i am not used to runnin autos or this super soil mix. Going to tweak some things and see if i can get the growth i want out of these girls. Could be the different pheno types from the seeds but there are many variables to take into consideration haha. Started slowly coming into the flush cutting out additives and sticking to carbs and PK to try and give them a last push. Going to be using my MH bulb next run to see if that makes a difference and writing out a new recipe to use next run. Will also be using LST / leaf tucking to keep plant shorter and encourage side branching. The shortest of the littler toofless alien #1 seemed to put the most bulk on the fastest. Lots if things to think about and consider for the next turn! Beyond excited for these to finish and be enjoyed! The smells are intoxicating from the toofless alien as hoped for and will leave your fingers coated in oils and resin after a light squeeze. A+ on all these for quality now just gotta figure out how to make them really sing for me!
@FarmerJohn, I have tried using mh and it only seemed to matter to photo period plants ( 12 hrs) give it a go but to lessen the stretch I'd get them closer to the lights 👍
I don't know these nutrients, but it's fuuuking many different ones 😜
Also in my 👀 Very high dosage 30ml/L
But as I saying... I do not know the brands.
Is it necessary for all the different fertilizers ❓❔❓❔
@XxxAuto,
Most of the products listed are for microbe tea brewing. The numbers given are rough not exact to the brew. Everything ends up being diluted to 5-10 gallons and more food or "fertilizers" are added gradually to feed the microbes. The initial dose of photo plus is 60ml to 5 gals so i just put 30ml a gal because i start my tea brews to 2 gals of water. The budswell is just guanos not a fertilizer and the rate is 30ml a gal. I do 30 to 60ml for the 2 gal tea and end uo diluting and dont add more. Numbers seem high but they arnt really that crazy. Ive got a lot in my arsenal and just using a little bit of anything that will benifit the microbes and growth of the autos. Everything is organic except a few products which is used sparingly in comparison. It is all diluted as well.

@BigDaddyK, yea i didnt think to raise them for the first time running autos. Seems like people get good yeild and growth from minimal lighting so was testing the waters. You dont think MH in veg would do them any better then HPS for flower? Have you tried both ways? Maybe it was the pheno or the super soil wasnt quite as strong as i thought. Going to be using a different growing method i think, instead of the super soil and microbe tea approach. See if i can get some bigger yields. Wasnt sure if i was pushing to hard or not enough with the super soil in there. Or watering to much with teas and should have used plain water or more diluted teas. Running through the variables and trying to tweak what i think could help improve things. I think keeping them closer to the light in veg and doing some training to promote side brancing and short stature should do the trick for me, got a new recipe ready as well so we will see what happens next run! Happy to be stimulated and learning more with these autos. So used to running photo period plants haha.
