How many weeks along is she?Betty Lou in her 4x4 tent. Hole in 4x8 canopy is where my first male NL (Frank) used to live. Stem rub of Frank is very sticky and smells like a pine forest. I Crushed the stems on the tall branches bc I can't raise my light any more. Pictures are to show newbs how they easily recover even after being crushed, also to stress him and force him to mature a little quicker. (I hope)![]()

Project #2NICE!what are you going to put in it?
I just make my own soils, pro mix is just peat moss and perlite with some added mycorrhizae for the roots. 65-75 %peat 35-25% perlite. Technically it’s considered soilless because of the lack of nutrients in mineral form. If you can find perlite and peat moss you should be able to order the mycorrhizae inoculation stuff online or find at hydroponics store.Well I'm off on a quest to buy some more Promix or Sunshine #4. I've already got a volunteer plant and I'm out of dirt.
Hopefully they have new product in. Last year's stock got pretty cooked from an extended summer of 100 degree plus days.
I ended up buying some Promix Hp on line that was the hardest driest shit I've ever seen, would not buy again!
Anybody used Sunshine # 4? Supposed to be much like Promix.
She was born on 11/2/24 (96 days today). She was flipped to 12/12's on 12/30/24, bud-set was on 1/13/25 (24 days of flower 'til now) no idea how long she's supposed to go. Just as long as she takes I reck'n.How many weeks along is she?
I started out doing that, Bruce Bugbee anyone? I still have close to 40 lbs of powdered dolomitic lime. I fucked up the mix one time and saved it with Promix, been using it and GH Maxigrow and bloom ever since with moderate success.I just make my own soils, pro mix is just peat moss and perlite with some added mycorrhizae for the roots. 65-75 %peat 35-25% perlite.

I tailor it down as per GH FloraSeries 10 part custom feed chart, I'll prolly do a 7 day flush (although I'm not convinced it's needed, I've known people who would be blasting them with 1200-1400ppm nutes right up to and while they were being cut, didn't seem to affect it much that I remember)Do you tailor down your nutrients towards the end of flower or go full tilt to day of harvest? @FloridaMike ?
This all came about when the cost for a 3.5-3.8 cf bag jumped from $36-$65 during the pandemic. If you went to Home Depot you could get two 2.2 cf bags of peat moss and one 2cf bag of perlite and mix your own for less than $60 and have another 2.6 cubic feet of medium for less than the 3.8 cf bag of promix hp. Add a bag of mycorrhiza inoculant for $15 bucks online and you just made your own version of promix hp for ten dollars more and got 60% more growing medium.I just make my own soils, pro mix is just peat moss and perlite with some added mycorrhizae for the roots. 65-75 %peat 35-25% perlite.

So you might see that fade as you get closer to harvest then right? I bet she’ll be real pretty at that pointI tailor it down as per GH FloraSeries 10 part custom feed chart, I'll prolly do a 7 day flush (although I'm not convinced it's needed, I've known people who would be blasting them with 1200-1400ppm nutes right up to and while they were being cut, didn't seem to affect it much that I remember)
I added 3x the correct amount of dolomite lime to the three Mexican x Columbian landraces I have stuffed in my 2x2 they are about as ugly as they come. Didn’t catch it right away and they pushed through it. But I unpotted one a couple weeks ago and cut the root mass in half and repotted it in a correctly mixed soil, she seems to be doing fine. I’m not gonna mess with her two sisters though it’s just too much stress for them and it’s almost time to flip these bitchesI started out doing that, Bruce Bugbee anyone?

I definitely need to order some more myco. I had some stored in the garage, a couple of months of 108 degree temps in the garage did it in I'm afraid.
I can't afford Promix hp, I've been using the red bales from Walmart, which went from 13 to 20 dollars a bale, grrrr. 2 cubic ft bag of perlite from home Depot and I have a rough approximation of pro-mix HP. I emailed Promix to see what the difference was between the HP and the moisture control and could I just add more perlite and they said yes. The main difference between the 2 products, HP has better drainage because of more perlite. My plants did not like the organic Promix in the yellow bale by the way.This all came about when the cost for a 3.5-3.8 cf bag jumped from $36-$65 during the pandemic.

lmfaoThere might be a way to "HAPPYNIZE" carbon. Like go down to like a quantum level and look at the difference between happy carbon and sad carbon or something and then make special weed for people who likes to be happy? And then I suppose a special weed for the people who just loves to moan and shit right, because there are plenty. You could maybe make special weed for all kinds of activities.
I am more stoned than I thought I was when I sat down.
Fuck yeah man! Go get that shit!once I get to that chapter, I will explain it.. lmfao My end goal is going to medical school for a five year program called MD/MPH dual program
