Starting a new feeding mix for bigger plants. Thanks for a few good folks on here who helped me sort it out. Kind of a hodgepodge, but the plants seem much happier already.

I went to room temp water, hoping that the plants wont spend energy warming up when using cold ass water. Not sure if it matters much, but easy to do.
Oh, I dont mess with PH-ing anything. I have the meters and such, but want this as simple as possible.

Easy Feed or Feed/Food for dummies like me.

Veg Food (use all waterings)
1/2 Cap ful FoxFarm Gorw Big per 1 Gallon room temp water.
For soil I use ProMix with nothing added.


Flower Food:
4 Gallons of room Temp Tap Water
-12 Grams Jacks Hydro, 5/12/26
-8 Grams Jacks Cal Nite
-4 Grams Epson Salt
-8 TBLS Bat Guano.

Mix the shit out of it and dump 2-3 dixie cups full on each plant. Feeding about 2x a week and one just water in between.
For soil I use ProMix and add 1 Dixie cup of Worm Castings and about 1/3 dixie cup of Bat Guano. Don't know if it helps, but I figure why the hell not. :)



Happy to hear any feedback if anyone thinks this is a decent approach, or if you see any thing that should be fixed.

Plants have no mechanism for warming water.
Cold water slows growth.
I just started warming my water after a visit to a greenhouse where they had a big ass furnace warming the water to their cucumber house.
Hadn't thought about it much before, but it seems obvious now and I just harvested my best run ever.

yeah, does make some good sense. I want them focused on growing bud, not on burning fuel to warm their water & food.
Now.. if I could just get my plants more veg time in less real time. Time loop room??:) dang it. lol.

If anyone can help me trouble shoot cloning, please PM me.
I am running the Clone King, water machine, and have added Air stones, clonex and my clones all usually die. :(

Can't blow up this room and get on track without cloning. Sucks. Have to run from seed and its twice the work with the males included.

Still struggling w cloning and decided to move to organic feed next run. Once I get that down_ I will add caps biowar to the party to maximize quality and yeilds .
 
#172
Wish I could help with your cloning issues man. I just do my clones the ol fashioned way..take the cut, dip it in some Clonex Gel, put it in the sirt, in a dome, spray the dome (not the cuts) a cple times a day and I get 99.9% every time. I've thought about switching to a mechanized cloner but I know too many peeps who have lost all their clones to a bad pump etc...fuck all that. Wish I could help....I know someone will help ya figure it out. Good luck...gotta have those clones! MGG
 
#173
Going to try some new cuts w rootech. I expect they will work much better.!
 
#175
All organic now. Things improving. Thought I would post some pictures.


Had some pretty small Strawberry Cough (BOGs) to flower - so I tied them down and put 2 of them in a 4-gallon pot, so I would have less pots to feed/water.
They seem pretty damn happy and the stalks are as big around as a nickle. :)

Simple way I manage my batches in Excel.
All I really have to know is when the start and when they come down. As you can see, I try to have 5-8 days between batches to spread out trim work.

PM me if you want the excel file to use. It was shared by some other farmer and I just dummied it down for me.

Black are currently running - Reds are later being flipped.
