It’s been quite awhile since I posted anything. Had some crap going on that brought our lives to a halt for a bit. Now that things are back to normal I can finally dedicate myself to raising some delicious healthy ladies.
I never really stopped growing…except for outside after getting sick of the mold/mildew season here in Ontario Canada.
Anyway…bought a couple of tents and some OCS autoflower seeds and failed miserably on my first grow. Stopped the second autoflower grow after 3 weeks, due to 2 of them began to flower, and the other 2 were stunted.

The 3rd grow included 3 clones from a local reserve (2xPink Kush and one Peanut Butter Breath) which came with a free dose powdery mildew that i fought off through the whole grow and a few government ocs REGULAR seeds in the second tent (Modified Animal Cookies and Tangerine Truffle Breath) plus a random Blueberry Seagull seed.

Now keep in mind at this point our household is still a crazy mess. So I try something different with the soil medium because I won’t have a ton of time to spend with them.
Bought some 5 gallon bags, filled bottom quarter of pot with PROMIX, rest of the pot with a 50/50 mix of Promix and Promix Premium Potting soil. Topped them once or twice, but didn’t spend anytime training them.

Started the grow with absolutely no expectations, just the hope of some smokable weed so the wife would stop telling me to stop wasting money….I am old, I am stubborn and I wasn’t ready to give up. What the hell else am I supposed to do as a retired senior in the winter bahahahah.

Only issue I had, was the salts from the potting soil would rise to the surface once in a while . I just scapped it off, replaced the soil and watered with Flawless Finish when it happened.

Anyway….I have really dragged this on too long….
The point is, to my surprise everything turned out freaking amazing
Absolutely NO nutrients added, just a daily watering (with R/O water)) and flushed them the last week. Too bad I did not train them
Best smoke I have ever grown. Gave samples of all plants to the owner of my favourite dispensary and he is still raving about it. He keeps hinting that the Holidays are coming and he asked Santa for some of my Pink Kush and Peanut Butter Breath!

Just starting my next grow this week with the exact same setup, but in 7 gallon bags and lots of LST

Ready for the verbal beating….have at it people LOL

Those are nice just a slight burn on the leaves tips, the last pick the leaf in middle the middle leaf finger looks like ? maybe a smalll goblin after salt.
I could be wrong i zoom in and tip looks round.

I had this problem a few days ago on my plant many leafs with whitish brown tips, i have video of salt on my finger from leaf.

Great buds.

What do you mean by the salts from soil rising up. I see rocks but salt grains? Pretty plant.

Ya I flushed from 7.1 ph down to 6.8 ph 14 gallons my plant was pushing excess salt out of leaf tips.

Time to stop feeding so much, flush time.
They were actually hard white specks felt grainy.

I deleted off phone after uploading except this video clip.
