I just now saw all the new comments. Guys I have pushed this facility a long way since we last spoke. Thank you to

@Frankster for commenting.
here’s an update ~
1) I have transitioned from 20gal pots to 15s to now 7gal coco/perlite 70/30. All I have to figure out now is spacing because I want to try putting x2 7gal pots per 1000w DE hps
2) this week we will be building a DIY drain to waste this will help with feeding til runoff on days I want runoff (any tips or links would be appreciated as I’ve been tasks to build it even though I have no clue lol)
3) I have better balanced my NPK and also added microbes. I chose King Crab and orca by plant success as it has all the microbes I need and also
mammoth P. I feed these 1-2x weekly. Not really sure exactly how to be using them so I just do a 1/2 strength NPK feed , PH my rez THEN add my microbes. Lots of people saying sterile coco is the way to go because salts kill them but whatever
4) I also add blackstrap molasses when I feed microbes , I didn’t know microbes need food if not in organic soil
5) we got my building on a trolmaster last week so my environment has been on point. I’ve also formulated a plan for every single week in flower as I didn’t know that every week in bloom you should be dialing in the room differently. Following DLI and also PPFD for different weeks / stages of life.
6) still no auto feed yet lol …. Hopefully next run but I have a lot in my plate as it is right now
i wish I could keep this thread more updated I’ve been busier than ever as I’ve become the “top guy” at this establishment and all thanks from the help from this thread and this website. My Instagram is more updated usually
