Well it's safe to say the foop will work with legit strong good bacteria! But the focus has to be on the root health when it comes to how much food you can add and still maintain healthy roots. But the game changer for me has been switching to a air stone, 1st and for most. The recirculation pump suggested by foop when running foop in dwc ran the solution temps into the high 70's around 77°F and anything over 75°F has been where root rot sets in for me. Even switched to way smaller recirculation pump with same results. So switching to running a air stone was big! But also found that running one Vivosun 317GPH Air Pump 15W split to 4 plants was not enough air for the roots to be happy in the foop plants. So I moved to a 2nd air pump, same size per tent. So now it's only split to 2 plants on the foop plants. And that made a big difference! But found after a few weeks that I had to bleed a slight amount of air off because there soo much extra air the humidity was sky rocketing in the tent to high 80%. So there's a sweet spot where they get extra air but not soo much that the humidity is affected. But the 2nd most beneficial thing I've done is start running Orca. It has made such a huge difference. I think I need to go up with how much I'm using or find something that works even better if possible. But the sweet spot now is 8 to 9ml total of each foop veg/bloom 1,2 and sweener. When I go to 12ml with foop 1,2 the roots take a noticeable hit. So idk how I would go to the recommended 20 to 50ml per gallon as suggested on the foop grow chart. Currently running around 6 to 10ml orca total per feeding. And adding 2 to 4ml when I add foop 1,2 mid week amd got happy roots! Also the Seaweed extract has made a difference in the smell the plant puts off. Last few grows have been really muted with smells and this grow I actually get hit in the face when entering grow room. So has made a difference forsure!! I'm soo excited!! I had skipped a feeding because I had been feeding a few tines mid week. And that's when all the yellow edges showed up I've been trying to get her back on track feeding mid week 4 to 6ml foop 1,2 and has made a difference forsure! I also added a Exhale C02 bag. So hoping that kicks her in high gear, but she already seems to be doing better! I also need to get back to trying to master the art of getting the ph to stabilize and not climb every 24hrs. Currently I have to ph daily 6/24 added 1L, 10ml Seaweed extract 6/25 added 2L 6/26 added 1.5L, 10ml Seaweed extract, 4ml orca, 4ml foop bloom 1&2, 4ml foop sweener, 3ml cal mag 6/28 added 2L 6/29 added 1.5L 6/30 added 1L, 20ml Seaweed extract 7/1 refreshed, gave 20ml hydroguard, 10ml orca, 25ml Seaweed extract, 9ml foop bloom 1&2. 10ml foop sweener, 5.5ml cal mag Records kept here: https://1drv.ms/x/c/fa218bbdbbfbd064/EYZwYiJbkHdKqKqmxBKBBEgBMfZ9Lh3BFPJZvpB3_52MaQ?e=v9Y0LL 👋👋👋 Hello, Thanks for checking out my grow!!

Hey guys ✋🏻 it‘s start of week 5 and day 26 of growing for the plants. Today I switched the light to a 12:12 schedule and put up a scrog net. Since my light gets more intense in the middle I build it this way. In the end I hope that all the buds get the same amount of DLI. Starting Flower the plants will need a bit more nutriens during the stretching. I will tug them under the net everytime they grow out of it. But they have to reach it first. I hope they transition well and during the night I will keep the tent as dark as I can by making my living space dark as well. We‘ll see how this week progresses. Happy sunday growmies 💪🏻 Update: today (D29) I watered Nr.1 and Nr.3, since they didn‘t need water yesterday. The EC of Nr. 3 and Nr. 2 were around 2.0 wich is good but Nr.1 had an EC of 6.0!! I think she doesn‘t need as much food as the other two because shes smaller. I watered enough so the EC went down to ≈3.0. I‘m also beginning to tug some shoots under the net but they all will need to reach up. I hope this doesn‘t end in chaos. Thats all, c ya soon🌿

Hi people I hope your all well. I have all cloudy from what I can see so far with slight few Amber's coming through sugar leafs.What you suggest for harvest? she is currently 56 days in roughly but is clean as tried as tried a small nug I dried days ago from lowers which seemed very smooth too smoke and as for the stone not bad at all. Flushed 1.5 weeks but as she was going too be a bonsai which got a little too bushy she is very short! I ended up chopping excess branches and left her too flower shot with her normal sister. Please note only 1 for the chop (maybe) the first 2 images and videos ✌️ the next few pics are her sister who I reckon a few days atleast or a week away 💚 suggestions welcome but be nice lol peace ✌️

I see a lot of branches growing out, i kept cleaning the bottom side so it focus on main colas. I see the size change so quick i wasn't even ready for it :-( i had a really busy working period this time i only add the feed. The Moby is the tallest and as i noticed it frosted out completely, Og is little smaller but fatter if you follow me, Lemon is a little behind but will be very nice Colas... Sorry all who follow that i have not been update a lot. I had a very busy working period. Thanks for popping by

Fue una semana tranquila, viendo como poco a poco siguen creciendo y engordando esas flores, nevándose de a poco más y más gracias a Top Candy de Top Crop. Se cortaron las últimas hojas para despejar por completo su parte inferior y fuese aún más fácil el riego. Se sigue ... Va quedando menos ... 👽👽👽

Here we go! Day 1 Kosher cake 15-05-21 Today for her, is the first day under the light 🙌🏻 I hope she grows up healthy and strong. I added a quarter of Biobizz's recommended dose of Root-Juice (1ml / L) I start to give less, and then increase in the next few days so as not to be aggressive with the baby. 👶🌱 I will be uploading new updates soon! Day 2 16-05-21 ..There is not much to say, the plant continues to grow and seems to like his little house 😋 Day 3 17-05-21 The girl is loving her life! 🌱💚 today I added (1g/1L) of Micro-vita to the recipe, to ensure that it is able to assimilate better nutrients and it has beneficial bacteria and fungi available for the protection of roots and for general plants growth. I also added a quarter of the prescribed dose of bio-heaven (0.5ml/1L) to start with the amino acids .. we are still at the beginning but surely he had a great start! see you at the next update! 😊 Happy growing to everyone! ☮️💚 Day 5 19-05-21 Looking great 😊 She’s growing fast.. I also added some cal-mag (0.8ml/1L) To start the prevention of calcium and magnesium deficiencies. Positive vibes to everyone! ☮️💚 Day 6 20-05-21 The little Kosher is doing well. she’s almost close to have spent a week in the grow tent.. Now the hypothesis would be to leave her inside another week and then move her outside, I still have to decide where she will go but I have various options to choose from.. We will see what to do on the next week ☺️ As always, Happy growing! ☮️💚 Day 7 Today is the last day of the first week for Kosher Cake, she spent it well and without problems. I added Biobizz Acti-vera to the recipe (1ml / 1L) to be used in foliar solution by spraying it above and below the leaves of the seedling. For now there is nothing more to say .. Have a good weekend, relieve yourself and relax. Peace to all ☮️💚

They look pretty good again. Two of them are smaller and less advanced cause they got stress due to some burnt leaves and stress techniques, I hope they recover and start growing and fattening again I'm watering twice a week, once with nutrients and once without, just ph regulated plain water Very happy! No plagues or anything so far...

Finished, plant smells intoxicating sweet and fruity, i also found a clear fragrance of chocolate. Smells do delicious, cant wait to taste the first fresh cured buds. I had some mildew, i immobilised it with uv-c light, killing the fungi and spores.

Good little week, showing some signs of a PH swing in the medium will have to adjust the amount of PH down I add into the mix. I have not been monitoring the PH as it always seems to do just fine. But when I did it this time it was hitting 4.0-4.2 so its a big swing. To bad I only did this after the fact with the left overs. Next week will get no PH down. Flipped it to flower at the beginning of the week, doing 12/12 on 40% as I might be away for a bit and if my friend needs to take care of the plants I don't want them working about to much DLI. So its getting under fed in light a bit but that's ok. When I am back I can increase it or just leave it as is. Added in its first dose of Acadie See Weed extract 15ml/gal 0.6-0-6, its recommended dose is 5ml/L so 15ml/1gal is good, also added some more of the Fish Hydrolysate 2-4-0.5 about 7ml/gal, its recommended dose is 30ml/gal every 2-4 weeks so this works out well if I am feeding them weekly. The one THCv plant by GTR is not doing so hot, it has not grown at all and barley drank anything since last week so I am just leaving it alone and hopes it will bounce back. Everything else is getting nice and bushy. All the herbs are doing well, cat nip is growing in nice and bushy with the pinching, same with the basil. The dill and cilantro is getting leggy and likely going to chop them and use them in some cooking. got a fish dish that would be nice, turn em into tacos. Other then that I think that's it. O yea. The nutrients are all fucked up. It shows me some ml/l options but all the labels are gone so no idea whats happening, any questions just ask.

So far this mystery seed from Roc Bud is doing just alright. She has some weird coloring and odd mutations but she seems to be growing steadily. I top dressed with a little bit of humus, worm castings and around 1/16th tsp of Root’s Terp Tea Grow. Trying to go light on this girl as I already pre-amended this lightmix/coco soil with around a 1 tsp of Terp Tea Grow. Her roots are already showing through the bottom so it’s only a matter of time before she starts to grow upwards!

About this diary> So I've made it to the end! This baby didnt die on me! This diary was half a record for myself, to keep improving and contrasting against my future grows in and out of this wonderful platform (growdiaries), and half a tutorial for other noobs like me. That's why I wrote somewhat long explanations about some of the things I myself found confusing during this and last grow. I also repeated myself, but again mostly because I was trying to learn while doing. I got some help from other growers in the community, which was very nice, and different from trying to figuring out everything by oneself. This girl stretched a lot! from about 30 cm at the end of flower to about 90 cm before harvest, it survived nutrient burn, an accident were I dropped something heavy on her on flower, accidentally chopping a branch during LST and spider mites. However, still yielded nicely. I cant imagine what these genetics could become in the hands of a master grower!! About the growing conditions> The idea of the grow was, not only to learn how to grow a somewhat long flowering strain (6 week veg, 10 weeks flower) but also doing it very cheaply. I think the most expensive thing I bought was the seed from RQS. I built my own light fixture (from 4x 4.00CAD COBs from aliexpress), some cardboard, wire, sticks, tape and aluminum foil. I also used dollar store nutrients (like 15% of a 15-15-15 veg mix, and a 15-30-15 flowering mix). I timed this strain to finish a few weeks before the temperature really starts dropping outside, and was always able to keep it around 20-29C without any air conditioner/heater. About growing amnesia haze> I harvested this plant on the early side, but I found it a challenge not to harvest earlier! Since many weeks ago the delicious smell has been filling the room and some parts of the house... Plus, its a long wait... However, I think it was very well rewarded :) As I said, the high is creative, giggly, energetic and uplifting, at least from the premature samples we got. I will update this once the real deal is dry and cured :) About the harvest> Well in terms of numbers, I will update this when the weed is done drying, but I can do an estimate right now... each sample I took weighted about 1.45g wet, and dried to a 25% of that (0.35 g each)... It means that what I weighted from the harvest (412.86g + a bunch of trim) would probably weight about 100g when dry... Let's see how it goes in a week or two :)

Good strech from both but there is about a 6 inch difference in the two strawberry not huge plants but will have some very decent bud good bud development
