Howdy Boys and Girls of the Farm.
This will be Day 5 of my Flower cycle on this batch of girls.
I felt it was time to begin a new thread to start the new flower cycle with.
This round I am trying a lot of new things. I hope we all will learn and grow with some of the changes I have made for this round. In these photos you will see I have 7 plants nearly filling my entire 5X6 area however they are much shorter than in the previous run. They have about 8 weeks of veg time on them compared to about 5 weeks in the first round. I have found its best to keep the height on lock down and keep everything close. I use pipe cleaners and masons line to keep everything tied down and as close to and even canopy as I am able to do. I will keep this up until around day 19-24 depending on when they tell me to leave them alone.
I have two strains going in this round 6 Querkles clones from my seed plants in round one, and 1 Apollo 13-BX from my good friend S.I.R.
In this round I will not be feeding any nutrients at any time. I have changed to a personal super soil mix very close to the one used by Subcool. ( the formula is in my first grow log. I will be giving them a very gentle supplement of molasses 2 tablespoons per 5 gallons of water every other watering. I have changed to tap water ph 6.9 -7.1 from the tap then ph adjusted to 6.4 last grow I was cal mag deficient using RO or Distilled. My water is kept in a 36 gallon res with the lid off for 24 hours and a big air pump and air stone running all the time. They are currently in 3 or 5 gallon pots and will be moving into 10 gallon pots on Tuesday.
I have introduced about 400 lady bugs to the garden also as a natural pest preventer. I have been battling spider mites for weeks now. Well that's a good place to begin let me know what you think. I always welcome comments suggestions or anything you have to offer of value. I do prefer to keep it fun and positive. Stay tuned and enjoy the show. Not able to upload photos at this time for some odd reason.
