Been harvesting all day figured it was a good time to throw up some pics. Went and transplanted all of The babies from their soil pots into the aero units. Topping will commence next several days. A couple of the babies got overshadowed by the bigger girls but now they should have a clear shot the rest of the way.

Thanks for all the kind words guys means a lot. So been spending last couple days getting another veg unit for the my veg tent. Just noticing that the plants are all getting crowded and unhappy. I already topped 3 out of the 5 Kraken couple days ago.

This way i can have a separate area for seedlings/topped plants then another area for growing plants and finally a finishing area. Each area the plants can stay 3 weeks so all my girls from now on will have 9 weeks veg before going into flower.

Just finished doing a foliar application of bennies

All The Plants are recovering nicely from the toppings. Couple were stunted due to the lack of space and being overcrowded but are doing very good.

Veg Day 34 (from germination)

Well what im doing is mixing my compost with some powdered oatmeal and then adding a bit of water. Then i put it on a seedling heat mat for 3-5 days. That shot is after 2 days.

Fungi dont actually multiply when you make AACT's they just grow bigger. So by letting them multiply first it gives you much more fungi in your tea. Then I will give this fungal dominant AACT to all my clones and veg plants.

ya my veg girls are eating like 50-80 ppm's per day. I used to change my veg res every 3 weeks but i was seeing signs of deficiencies so i upped it to a res change every 14 days. Still my plants were eating more than what was available and i think i finally found the equilibrium changing my veg res every 10 days. within 10 days they will eat anywhere from 500-650 ppms.

you know when you have the right microbe mix the plants will eat so much. In my AACT i use a mix of alaskan humus, EWC and some biodynamic inputs. Then i add Cap's bennies and a few other inputs. been working real nice so far. just have to dial in this new fungal dominate AACT.
