Alright, week 4 is a wrap. All plants have grown considerably, some more than others. I am a bit disillusioned with growing autos in soil. The veg stage is just so short and I'm not getting the height I would like.. alas.. I'll do my best for the rest of this grow, but photos are the next peoject, more specifically, Ocean Grown Genetics.
Back to this grow;
I've fed all plants 3 times this week. Once with just CaMg and Silica blast and the next feed with Grow Big by FF.
Sour Stomper has grown quite a bit, but at week four, she is 9 inches tall. No nute burn, yet lol but she's beginning to get into her flowering stage. One more veg feed and I'm switching to Tiger Bloom.
You can start anytime, but most wait until flowering begins. Some prefer a few weeks before harvest. It’s really a matter of personal preference. But you can start anytime. 👍

So I have Unsulfured molasses, I read a little about it In some forums. Anyone know when i should I start feeding the soil with it? I'm assuming much later given the fact of the contents of the soil mix. I'm sure sooner wouldn't hurt? Any info is appreciated!👐
looking good man. i see you are using the grow big from ff. do you use/have tiger or big bloom? at this stage i would be throwing some of those in as well. thats just me though. we are all learning
@EdsterGrows, I understand your thought process, but too much nitrogen too far into flower is not a good thing. It could cause toxicity if they got too much nitrogen. When I was using fox farms I just followed their feeding schedule. I actually went a little light with it so I didn't burn anything. Like if it asks for 10ml, I might only use 7
@Divs_darkroom, I do have the two other bloom products from FF. I was actually prolonging the veg nutes just a tad bit to promote height increase. I'm thinking about just using tiger bloom at low conc.
What schedule do you use?
@EdsterGrows
Your tropical like conditions partly account for such rapid growth. Good work keeping the soil warm! That’s key.
I was taught to allow pH to vary within the appropriate range. Supposedly a constant pH every watering doesn’t encourage as broad a range of nutrients uptake. We’re all still moonshiners! Who really knows?!?!
@growdoctordc, you make a good point! I've done so in the past, but not with properly calibrated meters. The last grow and this one I've been on top of calibrating my new pH meter and have kept it constant. I may vary from the 6.5-6.8 range. And as for the growth, the lights have done their fate share of keeping it tropical :) the temps used to be an issue, but now a portable AC has helped!
