My Cheap Ass Grow.

[rmoltis]

If the roots are coming out of the pots put some small gluts under them just enough to still let them drink up the RO it will save against root rot just my opinion.

I have no roots coming out the drain holes. This late in flower (11th week)
Those root tips have been air pruned.

I only do this on watering day after a full drench from bone dry soil.

Then I fill up the tray and it is dry and empty same day.

Followed by the soil drying to bone dry again before watering 3 days later


I should state for those who do not know my enviro is around °82-87° with %1 rh.

My ladies drink and spit out water faster you would think.

I have never had problems with root rot especially with a bone dry cycle every 2-3 days.

 

[incogneato]

I water all my ladies to full soil saturation.

The ladies in the main tent see so much heat and only%1rh. That they need extra water. Once I feed all the ladies I fill my drip pan with .5gallon or so of water. That way they have a battery of extra cooling capacity.

Usually before the day is over it has been absorbed.


I may get shit for doing this but lemme just say.

Working in high heat low rh% has been a challenge. It has required me to develop new growing parameters than what most people read is ideal.

This has helped me establish my own version of ideal.

In 2-3 days all plants will be bone dry and I will repeat the process. They don't just sit in puddles of water everyday.

I do this same thing with my clones/seedlings in coco.

its weird the hungry plant lost it mint smell.. now it smells like jalpanio funk.. strait up. cleared my sinus. hah. weird shit.

That hungry plant still looks like the worst is behind her. I mean the old leaves still look rough but the new growth looks pretty good and for me that's what counts. Look under your bathroom counter for some epsom salts. Mix a 1/4 teaspoon of epsom salts into 16 ounce of water and an ounce of urine. That won't burn anything and will give some nitrogen as well as sulphered and magnesium. No epsom salts? Just use a little bit of very diluted urine.
I glad you didn't axe these guys. They have been painfully slow growing but I think they are gonna take off now. They look ok.
As the guy is "Dodgeball" said. Yes I drink my urine. Why? Because I like the taste

 

[jipp]

morning. yeah i mixed up some epson salt.. did not add urin tho.

but iv sprayed her every morning.. she seems to like it so far.
figure once she darkens up i can stop. what is a sign of to much cal?

iv learn more from my fuck ups than if everything went perfect on my first try.. at least im learning how to diagnose issues..

chris.

 

[jipp]

morning. well i see what you mean how the plant goes limp when it sprouts new leafs. last night before bed number 6 and one above it were all limp. i thought what the hell are the sick from now.. but yeah just growing new growth i guess.

chris.

 

[jipp]

oh yeah.. the hungry plant is putting off smell now. hgah.. tent smells like jalapeno funk with out even touching her now;; good thing my scrubber, and light proof ducting will be here by sat. if she lives i think im g0nna have some smelly girls on hand.. its sad man this smells stronger than the disp herb iv had.. wtf.

and im fucking up every which way.

They are killing it! Looks Looks like there is some food in the mix actually. Must be some earth worm castings or something in there.

Your solo cup entry is doing excellent sir.

It is sunshine aggregate plus. It has a wetting agent and a basic seedling charge of a week of nutes added.

I bet the healthier seedlings go to week 3 since they aren't stressed from overwatering.

Great work @jipp !

morning shots.. waiting to go to the ER for my knee. if any thing to get crutches i guess and find out if its in the ,knee like i think or just swollen ligaments etc.. i stretched them out the night i fucked up my knee.

anyhow, fun .. i hate waiting at the ER..

but it what it is.. if im gonna keep getting healthy i better go.
find out how fucked i am..

funny thing is even if i was the type to complain about my leg offten.. its hared to complain about a bad leg being more bad. laughs , i just find that funny for some reason.

rock on.

[tifosi]

survivors,they are coming a long nicely for you.What type of veg & bloom did you pick up?

 

[justiceman]

The girls are loving you right now!

I've had a few knee problems and it really sucks. If I could give one piece of advice it is this. If they have you do physical therapy exercises for you knee make sure to do them. Physical therapy works wonders most of the time unless something else is required.

 

[GrowGod]

I agree with justice man, coming up on 10 years since I blew out my knee snowboarding :D had acl replacement and two mcl repaired. The physical therapy was so god damn painful. When they would stretch my new acl oh man was it bad! But I was lucky to get full extension back in my leg.
