Mosh wants to learn to grow !

[Frankster]

Great job Moshmen, looking forward to your next grow.

Looks like some nice heavy buds! Was it fun trimming it while still in the pot?

I trim all my plants this way, makes it easier, I think. Also, I've started hacking most of the outter roots, then washing down the root ball and removing all the soil, then I hang the entire plant, root ball and all, at least the majority of it. Makes a big difference in taste, IMO.

I was just leaving them in the planters actually, but I think removing the soil and washing the root ball is the best thing to do, that way as it dries, it can exchange what energy it has in it's roots to help boost the terpenes.

The problem is hanging them, when there really long, I need to clean out the closet tomorrow, so I can hang some of these bigger ones in there proper.

When they have the entire stem intact like this, I thinnk it also helps them keep from drying out prematurely, it seems like it keep's them hydrated longer, during the curing process, if that makes sense.

Also, the plant seems more "alive" to some degree or another, at least for the first few days hanging anyhow. There must be a fair amount of juices, carbs, enzymes in the roots, I suspect. I'm not saying it's a magic bullet, but it certainly helps.

Mosh back your light off a bit, if your feeding cut the dose, NL is a tuff hardy strain that lets allot of beginner mistakes slide, allso grow 1 strain at a time bc the largest plant will force you to raise your light and the other strains will suffer, yea you can put them on something to raise them up but it a pain, allso different strains grow and finish at different times and rates.

I’m liking this mega crop when I get it right but look what I got tonite ?

Mega crop part b - wtf not sure where all the condensation has come from ? Even left open shouldn’t turn to slush? Should it? , considering g it’s hard to mix up
To use or not ? It’s jyst calcium nitrate I think , have to ck

Or use pure blend pro grow for nitro I need for a plant I had to flush

 

[Moshmen]

Here’s the plant I want to fix - I had it pretty juiced up! Had to flush and want to reset

Wow! I have a bag of calcium nitrate and it's never turn to slush??

I had an earlier version of MegaCrop and it turned into a big solid lump that I had to throw away, suffice to say I'm not a fan of MC..hope it works out for you!!

Like I say I love the results but..... master blend lookin good at this point

So that dragon male I thought would just be kool ( all the breeding talkin here ) kept in separate tents I didn’t even see nanners open ? Wrong the whole tent pollinated! Fuck I guess I didn’t learn from last time dumb ass.
On the bright side I guess I’ll have enuff f-1’s to last a lifetime Oh and mayb a few f-2s lol see I was paying attention to Breeding thread .

 

[Moshmen]

Fucker got my autos as well - new rule with the males they go outside or in the compost pile one or the other , not in the same room ever again

as long as you can get it dissolved you should be fine. Sometimes I find some salts require a little more water, or more agitation, dissolve slowly, or are very temperature sensitive to dissolution.

However, there are some set protocols you want to follow when dissolving more than one kind of salt or substrate. Aqua and Chemistry know more about that subject, but I believe nitrates are first. To prevent just what your speaking of, precipitate. ie (inactivation) Basically, you want to not dissolve a strong acid or a strong base into each other, you want to buffer, and neutralize, then do another. (I mostly do on alternate days) You can also cause noxious gases mixing strong acids and bases, or possibly an explosion even.

That dope iis FIRE! lol

So lookin at these damn preggers girls kinda tics me off cuz they are pretty frosty already bout 16-17 days in

Wow dude , that plant just gave you the finger

 

[Moshmen]

Not ideal conditions for sure so most of em do at some point! I’ll make em happy here someday soon

12 petal leaf. wtf. That's nuts. Was it the only one on the plant? That's a keeper. I would preserve it somehow. Spray it with glycol and then seal it or something. Art.

I’ve been told it’s a unusual anomaly but not unheard of, there’s a name fir the condition I can’t remember but yes kinda cool. Prolly glue my wife glues puzzles together when finished then mounts and seals in a cheap frame prolly try that ? Oh I got seeds I’ll send from her if ya want pm me

 

[Moshmen]

Another Frankenstein genetics auto flower I got this one a little hot with light -lol I’m still learning where I want my par reading and and what stage- on the brite side we know they can take 60 k for minute - if I could get the vpd on target I’m sure they could take it like a champ.

 

[Moshmen]

Also slowed down to soon on the food should have kept pushin a couple weeks but it’s all good

 

[Moshmen]

And yet another blueberry - @Frankster ‘s gear I bent this one one time during right before stretch the last one was impressive to look at but I feel they would do better with a different light source ?
The next batch in will get this slight manipulation to even the canopy some. Got a tester I cut off last week , seems about right I think she’s comin down in the next couple days ! Lol
