      First shot of tea today at 11am. Diluted the tea solution to 1/4th with my well water. Tea consisted molasses, kelp, and granular humic acids. Going strong and getting ready to pot up soon I believe. Took the Skywalker auto out of the tent and transplanted from the starter cube so if the roots took off like they did in the pellets I'm right on track 😉. I don't wait for the root ball to constrict itself or begin to tangle...I'm going to say 3 days since they look so happy 😊.

        from what ive read so far im thinking old pipes cause i see rusty color on the inside of the tubs above/back of my toilet..

        Editing a comment
        The rusty color is likely caused by iron. Not 100%. But iron oxidizes and turns that rusty color especially when you have a faucet you don’t use regular. The water comes up from the well, sits in the pipe and oxidizes. I had well water that would come out orange and read between 7.5-7.7. Usually 7.6 but it had some variance.

      Seriously chef 😯

        Ya, tell me about it!
        A year or two ago, I mentioned to my dad some of the health problems I was starting to get, he was like, ya, I got that to, started in my 50's. In my thirties now, what the heck!! Getting old sure as hell beats the alternative though!!!

      thanks I like the idea of not having to repot and just put them in there forever homes

        Pictures after repot. They got fat and staying squatty the way I like em. Noticeable difference from yesterday's repot, no signs of shock. And my sickly ones look much better today. Working on third node and leaflets are getting fat.

        They will have one more day under cfls before I turn on the mh. Thinking of keeping the full spectrum light on in there while the mh is on. If temps can stay cool with the mh on the full spectrum doesn't get hot at all. I have it inches from the plants and my hygrometer reads 74.5f same as room temp. Humidity is a little lower then I'd like but we got some rain coming today so it's likely to go up a bit. It's cooling off and think we're going to have a cold winter ahead.

        Haven't turned the active intake on. My exhaust is on mid speed and sucking in my tent walls and I'm glad I upgraded 😉. Happy growing all.

            Thank you 💘. It's too bad I have to work today 😉. Would love to put back a couple cold ones and smoke myself silly. Maybe even pick up my reflector that I'm supposed to get for my shop...big china man cap. Haha just another day of peace without worrying about how many tables we turn tonight 😆. ✌ 💘...hugs.

          Happy Birthday buddy !

            I would think that if your growing in soil with added coco you should go with the 6.5 to 7 ph .You are not planning on giving them nutes right , so that makes soil the #1 substrate ,coco is just a filler . IDK but thats my two cents lol

            Almost opposite ojh, it's at least half coco. I will be using nutes, roots organic line. I'm shooting for 6.0 to 6.5 pH.

            Just got an answer to a question. One reason for the high pH is the biochar I used. The company says it usual has a pH of 12-13. With 10-12% of the mix being biochar is probably partly why the pH is so high and buffered so well.

            So are we supposed to wait a whole week before updating? I try to go back n forth with my other journal and my dhgc thread and update here as well. Not very exciting watching seedlings grow 😆. But they sure are getting big fast 😉.

              I've been trying to be picture heavy on this thread but include more commentary in mine... people like pics. I've been trying to post similar pictures when others post theirs to try and get a close comparison agewise

            Enjoying being able to compare progress.

              I just don't want to sound over excited about sprouts 😆. They've been taking off so fast I'm eager to share 😉. I was comparing pics from yesterday to just this morning and it's outstanding. I think my Skywalker auto it's getting left in the dust and she's around 5 days older. But she's been getting 24/7 light untill recently so we'll see if she can keep up 😆.

            Watered 1qt each with a slight run off from 3 pots not too concerned about leeching at this point, since they will be going into 7gallon fabric pots with fresh amended soil. Foliar fed liquid bone meal with a homemade surfactant before I left for work. I came home this evening and the 4 on the left were praying.

            Good sign indeed but still have a good week of cooking soil left. I wanted to transplant before topping, I underestimated them before I even germinated 😆. Looks like the gc will be the first to undergo topping and has left my Skywalker auto in the dust.... I love photoperiods lmao. 4 days since pics and growth has been rapid, I'm loving the progress. You might see them in their final homes next post if they keep me in awe 😉. ✌and growers 💘.

                Haha you sound like me. You'll be fine, those "shit" plants will teach you a lot. I just started soil growing so I'm right there with you. Funny though..my soil and experiment mix are doing better than the method I've been doing the last year.

                Seriously you’ll be fine. Follow the directions on the site and the advice given here (for the most part). And you have some good bud. I tried every way possible to kill my first grow, didn’t end up with stellar yields but some decent bids. Second grow I felt like a pro since I knew what I screwed up the first time.
