Is this it? i was thinking about the Mycorrhizae soil. I plan on sprinkling the Great White granular on my roots and put 1 tsp in holes in the soil. Also looks to me that one bag would fill 4 7 gallon pots with some extra thats not bad 60 for 8 7 gallon pots. I plan on doing 9 plants next grow i think with my current air flow + a/c i should have no issues controlling the tents environment as long as i top LST defoliate

That's it exactly - couldn't remember that long m word.

Nice work going on with good help😊

 

[Inuart88]

I owe all my success to nebula and you old timers who answered all my questions that I had when I started and expanded my knowledge. I wanna try to give back where I can because I wouldn’t be here with out you guys.

 

[Inuart88]

Here are the light spectrum for AgroLED sun 411 bloom/veg. I love the full spectrum bloom light.

I started germinating 4 FIRST BLOOD seeds from a local breeder yesterday on the 6th it’s 80-90% Indica dominate. 3 seeds showed there tails today so I will be grabbing my pro mix tomorrow to get them in the dirt. Will post some picture when I trans plants also did a 2 and 1/2 gallon flush this watering on half my plants and the other half tomorrow. Been trying to keep a staggering watering schedule.

Been using my phone calendar to keep track of my stuff and I love it.

Here is the flower day 6 update. Starting to see little pre-buds so that’s good means where moving forward. Still kicking my self I did not do 7 plants but to late now.

We we are super excited for the new kinds we haven’t tried yet Sly Pie Express, Dr. fire. Fire is a cross between fire of and dr purple my two favorite first strains we grew. I m pretty sure I got my growing process stream lined out.

My new puppy was in the grow room and hooked her foot around my power timer for my flower and switched it to veg good thing I caught it or that would have been bad. She’s fast it’s hard to keep her it. Moved the power cords up high now though.

 

[Canuck147]

The pic on the right makes it look like they are ready for blastoff.

 

[Inuart88]

Hah funny thing is front 3 water was 3 days ago they some happy ladies.

 

[Inuart88]

Planted my germinated first blood seeds today 1 did not have a tail but could see the start of the two root.

I decided on pro-mix for a few reasons one it has no base nutrients so I can do my watering schedule and nutes. I also bought peralite to mix at a 1/3 ratio. Also talked to The grow guy about super soil and they have on there that’s local that he uses. I may try to do a plant or 2 with it next flower.

I trasplanted into 2 gallon containers and added great white granulal to the tap roots and hole. I have them under my veg light for now.

Day 8 of 12 12 switch i think its close to count it into flower 1-2 more days. Then the count begins! I flushed the front 3 with PH water 2 gallons should have done 2 and 1/2 but i did not look at my calendar and did 2 oops.Getting florakleen soon to do my flushes with. Anyway here is day 8 flower back ones got watered 3 days ago front 1 day. All pointing nicely in the air.

 

[Inuart88]

3 seeds of first blood piped today. It was day 2 morning for the girls that was a quick pop up. Also watered back 3 with full flower nute line.

Thinking about a folage spray for my plants but know nothing about it. I’m learning so much since being interested in growing and spending a year with failures and success I think I made through the hard part. I’m now excited to look at my plants not like oh man what now. My back 3 girls are standing straight up they look happy.

Also did a light defoliation to open up bud nodes. Wondering if I should keep trying to flatten the canopy and lst when I’m into flower never done it before by worried about messing up my big bud shoots. Should I keep LSTing into flower? Will it effect bud shoots putting a big curve in them?

 

[D.A.A.S.69]

Hey88, yes, you want your canopy even, the best you can.
You can lst. All the way, till done.

 

[Canuck147]

Yes you can LST - but - you said you had a year of disappointment. Look how wonderful your plants look, healthy, vibrant. Let em grow. If you've never done it before, and might want to try it all of a sudden. Then you haven't thought out your grow from the start. If you have room for vertical growth - go that way. My $.02

 

[Tika]

Yup. You've come a long way baby🎉🎉 plants look clean and fresh and vi rant. LST as needed for even canapy- e enishvwill do. And your last wires can be adjusted up or down or removed..To suit your canopy and cola needs.
Really nice. Glad you are back and growing stronger.

 

[Inuart88]

I have about 3 more feet or so maybe 3 and a half that’s kinda my things is the canopy is not far off an inch or 2 here damn Sativa. But I have so much headroom. I did do a few like this branch is 7 inches tie it off kinda stuff. Maybe I will get a good look in there tomorrow and really look at what I can do. I need more good tie down stuff. Get it at grow store so easy to work with the brand they carry

 

[Tika]

My v isn't typing. Hope you filled in the blank🤪

 

[Inuart88]

Hehe you better get off the vi rant. Lol tomorrow I’m going to raise my lights and be able to get a good top view and move around in there to get them evened out a little better. Issue is 4 are clones and 2 are from seed all started in soil some time so there a little bit smaller and I already bent the other ones flats to even it outish. My wife has been telling me things are going a lot better and our garden looks. 😃

 

[Inuart88]

So this is cool seed put in soil yesterday POPED with true leaves today. Babies growing fat they need to slow down got 2 months till I can move em.

 

[Campesino]

Hey Inuart88
Just getting caught up. Love your light and set-up!
What leads you to flush? Are you monitoring EC/PPM or flushing on a schedule?
