I thought they eat fungus and reproduce in dead organic matter but either way they're on their way out. They were a problem 2 weeks ago but I did put some of the bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis in the soil. They should be taking care of the larvae and eggs while I get rid of the rest of the adults.
Now I'm just more annoyed about possibly phosphorus deficiency

The over watering wouldn't be an issue If I didn't have all these stupid holes drilled into my buckets which means literally anywhere where there's wet dirt and a hole that they could get into they've been breeding in so what was a good idea to get oxygen to the roots wasn't a good idea because it's pretty much like cliffside apartments with a front porch and a view for all the bugs lololol

I bought a bag of the mosquito bits. It's got the same bacillus as the soil revival but in larger amounts. This should work but I avoided it because it usually has lots of tric spores and grows this green mold. For plants idc but I grow mushrooms in the same room and I don't want to have even more reason for contamination. I don't want to have to run the air purifier in there but if I must then I must

Big weed family!! I swear they just multiply and I don't even realize where they came from lololol. Health has been sad over the place so I haven't posted much but I've been trying to keep busy.
from left to right
The purple punch stopped getting worse once I got the proper amount of Cal mag in there that didn't have nitrogen in it. But by then the best growing days were behind her. She does smell really good. Definitely like a fruit punch with a hint of sour grapes. She frosted up really well. It's taking forever for the trichomes to get milky. I see that some are but most are still clear. I don't see any amber yet besides on some sugar leaves. Just watering her with plain old 6.5 ph'd water. I'll post a few pics of the trichomes you tell me.
Next is there Blue Dream by fast buds and next to her is the tangie from fast buds. In from in another blue dream from the first attempt. She just started flowering nicely so I've just been squeezing her in wherever I got space. I just feel guilty throwing her out and she had nice flower structure. I'll see where it goes. The other 2 in the square buckets are just 8 days into bloom they have nice flower structure already. Maybe they'll yield something yet. The way they described the size of these plants, I had my SCRoG screens ready to go thinking they're were going to be super stretchy like the gorilla glue is. But no they did spider out a bit but nothing a few twist ties can't manage. As soon as the purple punch finishes then it won't be so cramped and everyone can have their own light.
Next is my father's plant. Boy oh boy is she a little unicorn. She's only a month into bloom. Just gave her a top dress. Last one was 3 weeks ago and she's getting these weird splotches. She might need another feeding with the way she's stacking flowers. She's a photo so I'm I wasn't shy with the feeding either. I still don't know what shr is. She smells like sour D I wanna say but I'm not 100% sure. Very fuely kind of smell to it with maybe a hint of citrus or like funky gas. But man she's looking like a nice pyramid. A weedramid 🤣 got the little weed slaves building up the pyramid shaped flowers on her step by step. My dad chopped his plant down and gave it to his friend as a gift 🤣🤣🤣 the whole thing was just straight seeds. I'm sure his friend was like..... Yeah thanks and then tossed it in the trash when my dad left.
But before he gave it away I got a good smell and I could swear it's sour d I'm hoping because that would be a nice surprise
​​​​​​Next we have the Earth Box. I keep trying to do living soil in 5 gallon buckets with limited success. With the living soil, more soil equals easier grow with better results. For the whole ecosystem to work the way it should you need a lot of soil for the buffer and the mycorrhize to grow and other bacteria to flourish. I built my own soil with 1/3 spagnum moss, 1/3 perlite, 1/3 earth worm casting/ compost then I added a bunch of ag lime, gypsum, oyster shell, basalt, glacial rock dust, azomite, kelp meal, crab meal, alfalfa, insect frass, humic acid, neem seed meal, Bio char. I let that all cook for 2 weeks and then I planted on the left UG (End game x grandpa's stash from Ethos Genetics) and on the right is a Mandarin Zkittlez R1 from Ethos Genetics. Both are feminized photos. I'm positive I'm gonna have to scrog these they're going to get massive. They're only 17 days old. I put them in the earth box 3 days ago and they have almost doubled since then
Then last but not least is the baby. Everyone in my family including me is in pain all the time so I figured let me grow a CBD heavy variety. This one is White Widow CBD with a THC to CBD ratio of 1:1 I can extract her and make some balm for achy joints and muscles as well as edibles with good levels of CBD. Of it works out well then I'll definitely start doing one grow with CBD heavy plants and one with THC heavy.
​​​​​​​So far so good. I hope the earth box makes this whole process water only with only one top dress then I'll be in heaven.

I think she'll give me at least 2 oz if not a little bit more It's not a total loss definitely could have been a lot more definitely could have been better but it's all right there's definitely going to be plenty to go around.
I also ordered some Grove bags. Because after I drive his purple punch I don't want to have to burp it every single day for a week I'm so over it already I want to focus on the other plants so I figure I'll use the Grove bags for it. I'll get it nice and dry do my trimming put it in the grove bags and forget about it for a month.

I hope it's going to be good. It's a cross between a bunch of different cultivars. Some cherry in there some orange in there... All flavors that I like. Hard to tell when the Ethos website only has a sentence on what to expect...... And even worse it's a Multipack..... So you don't even know which cross they're explaining.

So far so good. The blue dream and tangie are on day 14 of bloom. Day 45 in total. Nice flowers everywhere especially the blue dream. The tangie has such delicate stems and stalk while the blue dream is as hard as a tree trunk I accidently topped it while trying to bend it.
The other blue dream is on day 25 of bloom. This is the one control in the fox farm soil loaded with Dolomite lime. It's doing okay but looks like there's some excess of some nutrients.
The earth box is doing so well that I decided to get another one and I'm going to plant the White Widow CBD and the cutting of my dad's plant that I have.... It's so root bound and I didn't know what to do with it so I'm just going to plant it together with the CBD. Veg for like 3 weeks and put into bloom. I don't want giants but I don't want to throw the clone away either.
As for the UG and Mandarin, I have to put together a trellis so that I can start winding them soon. It's day 23 for them. I'm probably going to veg them for a month and a half before I flip. Mostly to give some time for the CBD one to grow up a bit. I FIM'd the UG and Mandarin so they're starting to branch out. Those leaves on the Mandarin..... Man they look like circular saw blades. Some really nice structure on there. The Coots soil recipe is pretty simple and pretty effective. Maybe I'll get some worms for the earth boxes as well.. Get a whole system going in there because I have nothing to do. Watering is a nothing task and all the nutrients are in the soil so it's water only once a week and the earth box does it's thing. Perfect for me since sometimes I'm in the hospital and away for long periods. This might be the best way for me.

The whole leaf structure is amazing on these. Just blown away by the performance. Just going to double down on then earth boxes. I have space for 4 big plants and I'll get that with the 2 boxes. With the least amount of work. The only big project is building the whole soil and letting it sit for like a week but then once you plant it's a water only system. I gave the buckets a good go. They did okay but nothing to run home about. It all came down to the size. I needed say least a 7.5 gallon but preferably a 10 gallon. The living soil method should really work with this earth box well and no worries about over watering. It will always have the right amount of water that it needs to function by wicking. Keeps the microbes happy and the plants happy. Once during veg I'll make a tea and once during flower I'll make a tea and that will be the only extra feed. Should hopefully be smooth sailing from this point on.
And that perfectly executed FIM. I bet I'll get 4 branches no problem with that. Def like to FIM over topping since you can get 4 branches in half the time and since I like to SCRoG, it works out really well in filling that net quickly.

So first update...I got laid off from my job. I came in Wednesday and they had already let 4 ppl go... I was the 5th. So no more excuses about things going wrong.
First the tangie and the blue dream(s). Now that I have the proper cal-mag without the extra nitrogen, things are going very well. Day 48. 20 days into bloom
The Tangie still has very thin stems but the flowers in those stems.... Just wow! She's already starting to pick up that orange fuel kind of smell. The trichomes that she's dropping on the leaves is crazy. On one of the leaves it's almost a millimeter tall
The blue dream on the other hand is growing these massive flowers. Her 10 day older sister is putting on the smells. A nice sweet berry kind of smell. Both blue dreams are doing well. The one in the Coco and the one in the soil. I think I was just always under feeding the calcium. Now I front load with 5 different calciums and I foliar spray some cal mag once a week during veg and they've been doing well.. it's week 3 of bloom and I'm not noticing any signs of deficiencies . They are just stacking on the flowers, praying for light.
My father's cutting is really the surprise guest. She's stacking some really nice fat flowers. For a tiny 2 gallon bucket, she's really doing nicely. Probably going to be a late bloomer just by the way the flowers look..... But man look at those orange hairs and frost.
That's why I planted the clone I took off it before bloom and planted it with the white widow CBD in the second earth box.
Then we have the Mandarin and the UG . I got the trellis up and I pulled some big fan leaves because they were blocking all the lower branches. Those leaves are absolutely ginormous!! Some really nice looking leaves. I have them some castings tea today. I hope I'm the next 15 days I can get at least a quarter to half that net full because in 15 days I'm flipping everyone to 12/12 lighting.
Autos photos it doesn't matter in 15 days just going to flip to 12/12 . I'll have to adjust the lights so that they get their DLI with the 12 hours of light. The tangie and blue dream should be ready at the end of November, early December. My dad's plant will be maybe middle of December. The rest of the stuff I guess in January.

Almost forgot, I trimmed the purple punch the other day. 5.2oz the whole plant. Out of that I got 3oz of flower. This time I did something different. I used a Grove bag to cure my flower..... And just wow!!!! I never had steady humidity like this before. You look at the line before it went into the Grove bag when it was drying. Then it goes into the bag and it's just stable! I'm genuinely impressed. I spent money buying 3 CVaults and I don't like them. I'm loving this set it and forget it with the bags. I even tossed a hygrometer in there so I can see what it's doing.
After trimming, I kept walking back into the room because it just smelled so damn good. Like fruit punch or like some purple synthetic drink that's almost like grapes. This stuff is going to be great. Too bad I screwed up on the call mag with the Coco I could have had double the amount.
The Bruce banner is a month and a half into cure and getting better and better. I've been sampling after one month. The gorilla glue is 2 months into cure and it looks like crap, it doesn't smell great or taste great but that high...... Woah! Who would have thought something that went so wrong would come out having such a good high???
That's why now, no matter how bad I think it's going or how bad or good it's actually going, I'm going to follow through on everything. It's only going to keep on getting better.
Oh the metal bowl was 231g so I ended up with a total of 84g.
