Fixed lol one of them was shitty re took the picsMissing pics bro

The ones outside in my last picture aren’t mine there my brother in laws, those are pictures for reference which plants I took the clones from that I’m going to make into mother plants etc, but yeah his he did no supercropping (until today when I showed him how) just the LST,Oh my! Those look Awesome! They are all so healthy and perky looking!
Do you get that many colas from topping or LST?
Lol no, no challenges, in fact he’s happy I’m taking clones so he can get cones from me next year, but he will be moving soon, closer to me, once he has his place we plan to set up a breeding room so we can really do some fun shit. Hopefully over the next few months he get moved down here and we can start.really cool lookin grows Mike. So jealous of all that room you have in the tent. Those lights are straight fire as well. You are going to have your hands full of frost here sooner than later. Is there any friendly rivalry goin on with bro in law as to who can grow the ickyicky? I like your odds
Imo the soil makeup will buffer PH so you dont have to.Alright is getting to that time, compost tea, neut tea, whatever we wanna call it lol
Looking for some help putting together a full recipe
Currently my plan is
Earthworm castings
Kelp extract
Fish emulsion
Backstrap molassess (unsulphered)
(I’ll toss in some great white shark myco)
What else would make this a full tea?
Obviously I’m using the dry amendments in the soil and will be top dressing monthly, but wanted to have something really beneficial to the plants for immediate uptake about every 2 weeks
Basically soil amended, 2 weeks later compost tea, 2 weeks later top dress, 2weeks… tea … you get the idea lol
Just looking for a well rounded pick me up for the plants, and soil microbes between top dressing
Also as far as organic PH control I know I can use citric acid to increase PH if needed but not sure what would be best for decreasing PH taking all opinions and will start getting it together I’ll probably want to get some made and I’ll give a half strength dose in about a week if I can get it all together at once
Any opinions ?

Feel free to tag anyone who may be able to help develop a good mix!
I’d skip the molasses unless used carefully as aquas and others explainedAlright is getting to that time, compost tea, neut tea, whatever we wanna call it lol

I like the control and the time.I am salts. Organics need 1 month notice and my plants were pissed! I am a slacker..
I want what I can control .
@Shaded_One has many threads on organics and serious grows to back it.
Plus to paying not 1 minutes attention to pH in soil.
What a joke ...
I’m in and out of my tent at least 4-5 times a day lol, my plan will be to not water to runoff obviously so I can keep the microbes in the soil where they belong, at worst if something is going on I can flush and reapply a tea for instant uptake but I feel I’ll have a more enjoyable experience with the dry amendment route over the liquid ferts I used last grow I know I was building up salts in the soil and I now know that fox farm happy frog forgot to add the Ph buffer into the soil so that fully explains why I’d flush at 7.0 PH and by the next watering even fresh 7.0PH was getting runoff of low 6’s at best, hence why I used the medium I did and did the dry amendments and plan on the compost teasI like the control and the time.
Boring just putting a plant in soil and watering every 5 days too.
Molasses is good for teas but not to water in by itself. You also want to mindful of the dose used.

@Observationist and @Aqua Man so I guess skip the molasses that works, just gotta follow up with what @steamroller said about checking out shaded’s posts about teas

Yep that’s my plan keep the microbes happy and fed and they’ll keep the plants happy. I’ve seen such nice results from some growers using teas and if I can grow 100% organically I’d be happy as hell. That’s how I grow my vegetables why not my buds too!Teas will be where it’s at
You’ll feed the microbes and they’ll feed the plant
Right, it would defenitly be in the tea and bubbled for 24 hours prior to use, basically if I decide to add it, use a very small amountMolasses is good for teas but not to water in by itself.

Really this set of autos is kinda my Guinea pig set prior to getting those photos running, I may keep 1 or 2 autos running all the time for a perpetual harvest etc but I’d like to be harvesting photos every 3 months or so if possible
Yeah I watch him all the time, I think I’ve seen every one of his videos, I’m also on his Patreon to see the bonus videosCanucks grow on YouTube goes the organic route, uses Gaia green dry amendments and his bud looks pretty damn nice
