Thanks all for the well wishes! I began germination and mixed my soil today, August 6. Hereā€™s my whole grow strategy. If anyone has any pointers or tips Iā€™ll take them. Keep in mind I want a 100% organic grow: Soil mixture is Happy Frog, organic perlite, organic worm castings, Black Kow manure compost, Dr. Earth 4-4-4 and Dr. Earth 3-9-4. I mixed it all in a giant ass tub. I will be filling my fabric 5 gallon pots probably on Sunday. Iā€™m letting the flavors in the soil meld. Plus I donā€™t really need it until germination happens. Iā€™ll leave enough space to top dress a few times. Iā€™ll top dress with 4-4-4 and worm castings every 4 weeks or so in veg and top dress with 3-9-4 and worm castings every 4 weeks or so through flower. My final feed should be in week 4-6 of flower to let the plants use the nutrients all up. PH will be regulated to 6-6.2 throughout this grow. White vinegar will be my ph down acid. I donā€™t need ph up. And thatā€™s the plan for the whole grow as far as my feed goes. My training strategy is top once I have 5 nodes, LST as soon as I can, prune smaller branches and heavy defoliation once I see preflowering. Iā€™ll continue light defoliation until after stretch happens, then maybe one more heavy defoliation and a lollipop after the stretch. I know these are autos, but I feel like that might be successful for me. Especially pruning back the branches that are going to only produce garbage buds. Watering strategy is to use a spray bottle every couple days until early veg. Iā€™ll start some light watering around the outside perimeter every 3 days or so (maybe 2) to encourage the roots to stretch. In later veg Iā€™ll be increasing that watering volume, but not frequency. In flower Iā€™ll be doing the same frequency and watering until run off.
