worst plants I've ever grown were pineapple chunk by bf

I feel like thats more of a pineapple chunk problem than anything. Ive heard so many horror stories about that strain being just awful all around.

Good to know, I grew vanilla Kush by bf about 5 years ago, it was decent, not amazing
This critical Kush will be outdoors
I don't plan on using any tent space for her, only the Gorilla Glue 4, any experience with gg4?


They sure did OB, i have 45 mins til my lights come on and i get to see how my ladies liked their first bloom tea, my soil mix is hot so i may have to slow down a bit on the tea.

I'm sure they loved it!
I swear waiting for lights on in flower is like I'm a child getting a present again lol
I'll be mixing up a new tea next week, I personally don't have an issue with tea feedings weekly, they always respond well but my teas are basic compost/kelp/alfalfa/grokashi
Nothing fancy

Yea you do your tea about the same as i do, i throw in peruvian seabird guano at transition though for that extra kick of N since my flower mix lacks N. I know how you feel about waiting for the lights, im the same way.

Shouldn't have an issue
From what I've read it's hard to 'burn' with a compost tea
How many hours did you bubble?
I used a 45lpm pump and bubble for 24-36 hours
I need to get a 6row malted barley tea whipped up

I generally bubble 24-48 hrs. Its almost always ready by 24 but if i started it a day early and the plants seem a lite moist still ill let it go another day. Never done malted barley, what are the benefits if you dont mind me asking.

Similar to what I do
I mix it up the day before watering but if too moist I'll let it bubble for another 12-18 hours

The malted barley adds enzymes to the soil that help the microbes break down the soil ingredients faster, allowing the plant to uptake more

At least that's the way I understand it
Grind up the malted barley, and either
Top dress and water on each plant
Or bubble for no more that 4 hours and apply
Anything more than the 4 hours and it gets too acidic and can cause some major damage

Looking great arctic! Those leaves are praying to the light! I see plenty of dense nugs in your future!
What's the flower time on that strain?

Forgot to mention that the 6 row can speed up flowering as well
I've had a few strains finish 10 days sooner than normal

6 row Malted barley
Sorry!

Oh oh ohhhh thats good to know, i was talking about those reptisuns GT is running but im definitely giving that barley a shot now. Bet i can get it real cheap at the feed store.

Scratch that the stiller supply store.

Found the 6 row in town for 2 dollas a lb! Not too bad for the middle of nowhere.
