Any kind of essential oils would be good so if you have access to peppermint or spearmint oil you can use that. You can also make tobacco tea and spray it on.This is sadly completely out of my reach, I would have to import all of those ingredients, there's a lot of limits to growing here in Cuba, it's like having my hands tied and getting kicked in the nuts constantly.
Pretty kool palcero, flora series is very good just been on point with the calmagHi everyone, this will be second attempt to growing in Cuba, last time one of my dogs ate the plant at around 45 days old, but this time I have a little ghetto setup. I'm going to be growing inside one of the sections of the closet in my room, it's a 30" x 30" and it's about 6 feet in height. I put in a Vipar Spectra V1000 (2023) with the new diodes, I will wrap it later down the road with panda film, and I'll put in all the bells in whistles little by little. This is the "grow room" for now...View attachment 2003718
I germinatd 2 Black Domina they are feminized photoperiods. They both sprouted from the soil today, the soil I'm using has been flushed for the last two months with rain water only and LAB.
The soil is just natural soil found around wooded green areas here in the island, it has about a 30% mix of rice hulls, and 10% mix of broken down styrofoam bits with some small bits of wood chips.
These are both the plants now....
DAY #1

I'm super excited to see this grow progress... Some details about the lighting setup. It's currently at 75%, 26 inches up, it's whats recommended by the manufacturer for the seedling stage.
I went directly and planted into bigger containers this time, I don't want to have to transplant until it's well into the vegetative stage and the roots have fully developed because the soil is not perfect and it's still clunky, so I want it to grow without interrupting it or stressing it out.
For nutes I will be using the General Hydroponic Flora Series 3 bottle kits sold on Amazon, I'll be using my own home made CalMag, I'll also be using Hydrolyzed Fish food for the plants.
Hope everything goes well this time, I will be keeping the door locked so that my dogs don't eat it this timewish me luck and all advise and productive criticism is welcome. I'm here to learn, better myself and my grow skills along the way and with a lot of luck get really high in the end
I have never used human vitamins for my plants however I did add old protein powder to my compost pile lol. Here's an article that talks about.using old vitamins on plants that should help you.Also on a quick note, my leaves are starting to taco all over the top of the plants so I raised the light 3 inches, and I'm trying to find someone with knowledge on using vitamin supplements as plant nutrients, I need cal-mag, can't get my hands on epsom salt, or calcium nitrate... So I was thinking could I use these supplements and just add them to the water?
I would need help on what dose I should give per gallon of water.
That's if I can even use them to replace cal mag

It's what they need - why not? I would smash up and mix one tablet with five gallons and just give it a shot! You could add it just to one for comparison...Also on a quick note, my leaves are starting to taco all over the top of the plants so I raised the light 3 inches, and I'm trying to find someone with knowledge on using vitamin supplements as plant nutrients, I need cal-mag, can't get my hands on epsom salt, or calcium nitrate...

Quit hogging up that Viagra! Share it with your plants!
I will crush one half into a gallon of water and see how one of that plants take it, I will wait a week and see how it does, if it's better than before then I'll do the same for the otherIt's what they need - why not?

Agreed, I’d flip very soon to get the most out of that light in that space. Plants look great imo I’m not seeing defs on he, maybe a tad of nitrogen if you’re worried about the yellowing but depending on the strain I find some have very very light new growth and it darkens up nicely over the next few days as the leaves mature.I don't see any calcium or magnesium deficiencies going on with your plant and they do look great.
Your light isn't really powerfull enough to penetrate a too high, dense or wide canopy once in flower.
Imho your plants are already big enough for the flowering switch, may be wait one more week but not more. Else you might end with a flowering stretch totally out of control and lot of buds that don't benefit from enough direct light and/or too far from the light on the side or bottom of the canopy.
Do you or anyone you know have a fish tank?P.s sorry about the mess on the ground, I accidentally broke one of the bags of soil I bought in Havana, before taking those pics.
Sadly no, I know someone that has a fish pond at their house made of cement.Do you or anyone you know have a fish tank?
Fish water is usually full of Nitrates which your plant looks to be asking for , maybe next time he cleans his water out ask for some to dilute and add as a supplemental nutrient sourceSadly no, I know someone that has a fish pond at their house made of cement.
