alltatup GROW 4: Blk Dom, WW, C99

[GanjaGed]

Loooooking goood!

[Capncanna]

Could you explain how you flushed . I know it sounds silly but I've been a bit afraid cause their doing ok. But noticing nute uptake is down to nothing . Thanks your always so good at advice

[alltatup]

No problem, Capn! I was just reading some more about this today, and I"m more and more convinced that I need to do it more often, on a regular basis. I've read that it's good once a week: 7 days on nutes, 48-hour flush, back on nutes. What I do is just add Advanced Nutes Flawless Finish and pH the water, and leave it for 2 days. I have seen the plants really perk up after a flush. I need to be NOT lazy about doing this for my girls, cuz it IS more of a pain in the butt with hydroponics than with soil....

[Capncanna]

Not to be a dunce, although I am sometimes, do you do a complete res change and use new water , add the flush or add it to the existing res water and wait 48. Also i use foxfarms nutes and have some sledgehammer flush , it's basically yucca extract. Any ideas on that

[Capncanna]

I'm growing dwc. Lots of people say after sprouting and the roots are in the res the drip is doing nothing. I left them thinking movement over new root growth was good. What is your thinking ?

[alltatup]

It may be true; I've need to switch out my dripper for my monster sativa for weeks because it isn't working, and she's thriving...

[Capncanna]

Think I'll do a big scrub and flush this weekend to be safe. Got my twmpmdown to 72 and my dehumidifier arrived today so that's solved. Thanks

Beautiful plants Alltatup pretty color to em.That's why I grow in supersoil don't have to do no flushes ,plus I ain't never grown in water probably cause I'm not smart enough to . I've heard growing in water might be a little quicker to the finish but growing in supersoil you don't have to do a week or so flush ,at the end so I bet its probably pretty close either way you grow. I got that app on my phone Alltatup like yours and man is it nice. Thanks

girls are really lookin good teach. i like ur training style in that growbox, you make good use of ur space.

[alltatup]

Thanks prof!!! They are comin along...

[alltatup]

The first picture is from Wednesday, and the second is this morning. They have bounced back after the flush and the switch to AN nutes at 25% strength.

The final picture is the C99 who showed the nute lockout last weekend. She's a real one and she knew how to bounce back. There's significant new root growth as well.

So: FLUSH IS GOOD!! They were definitely invigorated by it.

Beautiful ladies

[alltatup]

They are coming along!!

[intergalactic_harvester]

hehe, lobes on the fan leaves look 2 thumbs wide! good stuff teach!

[oldjarhead100]

alltatup looking fantastic I like the idea of flushing .you know I grow in coco and I try and do two flushes a grow besides the final flush. thats one plant per picture correct wow

[alltatup]

No, that's four plants in the grow box: one C99, one White W, and 2 Black Dominas. Yes, I think regular flushes is one way to avoid problems!!

[Sheesh]

They look great alltatup. What is that ecoair box behind the plants?

[alltatup]

EcoAir2 that's adjustable; it came with the box.

[Capncanna]

Look so great! I think I have nute lockout growth has slowed and no nute uptake ppm hasn't changed . Flushing this weekend. I use ecoair2 work great! And cheap.

[alltatup]

What I saw was stuff happening on the leaves, and I eliminated any kind of deficiency. So I knew it had to be lockout. I'll be interested to know how your girls do after the flush.

[Capncanna]

I'll defiantly post pics. Thanks again for l your help.

[MommaBear]

Popping in to say HI!!!! You have me wondering about this flush business during the grow now....I must read more 😉 I am also curious about the "app" mentioned above, is it a growing journal app? Been looking for one 🙂
Happy Friday!!!

[alltatup]

Hi MommaBear How you doin girl. I posted a topic with the article from 2012; did you see that? And I'm not sure which app you're talking about: is it the one on my iphone for getting magnified closeups? It's called SuperVision+. I don't know bout no grow journal app...

[MommaBear]

No worries hon, I just saw mention of an app and got excited hoping it was related to a journal or better yet the GWE app Nebula mentioned they were working on lol
I tried a magnifier one and it was nowhere near the microscope quality I get but it sure did the job in a pinch!

[oldjarhead100]

Just downloaded that super vision app. thanks alltatup

[D.A.A.S.69]

Those are some real beauties Alltatup, I would be awfully proud of them. I hope they grow some great bud.

[alltatup]

Thanks, DAAS, they are growing like mad again, good recovery from the nute lockout, and yes, I'd like to see them fill the damn box with bud.
