How much feed

[Okietrapper]

Need a little advice . I have some big. Outdoor girls in 30 gal pots they are about 10 feet . I'm having to water them twice a day in this 100 degree heat. They are starting to flower . here's the question should I feed them more than once a week since I'm giving them 6 gallons of water every day ? I'm using Jack's professional 10 30 20 at 3 grams per gal
thanks guys

When i had a good size outdoor grow i would feed every 2nd watering. My out door are way smaller and in smaller pots i gotta water 2x day. My 15gal i water 1xday. It's OK to let the ferts/nutes settle in the soil for couple days those are huge pots and should be good for at least 2days without water. Seems like washing the bloom nutes out watering so soon. A bit of droop won't hurt in my thoughts.

Those are some healthy looking girls. Plants that size can use up nutrients rapidly so it's important to keep them fed. So far it looks like you are doing things right. My suggestion if you aren't already, would be to start adding blackstrap molasses to your feed to keep that soil alive with enzymes and beneficial bacteria. It really helps your roots keep extracting nutrients. Thanks for sharing. I'm impressed

How much on the molasses per gal water

[crucialbunny]

I use about a tablespoon and a half per gallon every 5 days. The plant itself from what I've read doesn't actually take in the molasses but it feeds the microbes and bacteria in your soil that keeps the root system healthy and happy. I've had people tell me that they can taste the sweetness of the molasses in their bud but personally I have not been able to detect it. I don't smoke myself anymore but I always Bill Clinton my product by not inhaling.

Damn you ain't kiddin LOL them are some towering ladies. Slow down on the nitrogen they still need alittle but the PK is more needed during flowering and transition. You don't want anymore growth you want flowering and days are going shorter flower should start showing beef up those stalks now with PK bloom. I just top dressed my outdoor with bone meal for added help during the transition. Yes unsulferated molassess at least once a week during these warm days. Excellent job sorry but my trimming huge monsters are over for me i'll take 6ft more to my arthritic hands and finger.

Thanks to all you guys . them things drink lots of water it's hot and humid here.. Looks like the ones in the pots are all that's gonna live. Had a few in the ground bout like theses and the termites are killing them. I don't really like pots but I think it's the only way here where I live . surprised my house is still standing lol

1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water, they will love it. Man that's the shits about termites LOL

Them termites are horrible
the plant they killed today was a tomahawk from
Green point seed half gg4 half chem dawg easily a 2 pound plant looked like a 7 foot beach ball . I can't figure out how to beat them
I guess they are attracted by the water when it gets dry
They eat the roots and move in the stalk. There's things that will keep them away but nothing that you would want to smoke open for suggestions if anyone. Knows something I dont
