Hey
caregiverken said:
Thanks Morgan :)
I use Kellogg Patio plus soil in the beds..


Im going to feed with Alaska fish fert.


and Kelp powder tea.

The Lights are to keep them from flowering..
The plants were inside under 18/6 floro lites and I didn't want them to flower in the 12/12 sunlite.
So right now they get bout 12 hours of sunlight. then 6 hours dark, 3 hours of floro light, then 3 hours dark.
And of corce the days are getting longer..Im hoping it keeps them in veg...lol:cool:

.But I will start covering them in 2 to 3 weeks to make them flower....:D

I like roots hpk for flowering


:confused:

no, that depends
I only use it on the plants that look like they want more N..
I try to let the soil do the work...but if a plant doesnt look happy..then I try to make them happier...lol :)

Pssst..... Outdoor plants like it when you pee in their soil ;)

Sounds like a candidate for foliar....you could continue letting the soil do it's thing while foliar spraying for deficiency ...just saying but im sure you knew that cuz your good researcher/ student/ badass grower!

Organic nitrogen happens to be great for foliar I keep it around 400ppm and and from 6.5 8.5 ph if you add some bennies in there it helps prevent or battle pm

ken .....

what times are you light dep ..... ? i ran mine like an outdoor tent. 12 /12's , 6 -6pm.

maybe set your cans up on blocks / stone & run breathable blk cloth up and over the blocks, & put the blocks on all 4 corners so u will have a gap on all sides letting fresh air in, no matter the wind direction, & overnight heat air flow, ..... dead air.

^^That post^^ Made me feel a little better...Thanks :)
My outdoor is always really leafy..
I think i have too much N in the beds (damn cats)
And, the sun is getting higher in the sky as we get closer to the summer so, that may make them want to veg too

ya, it prob a o.k. ..... go light on the nutes in the end ( looks like you do that anyway, no burnt tips ), hit them hard twice on day 30 & 45 w/ booster ....

& since you have tons of gear rolling outside start testing on a few. change one thing per test so u know tru results then move on. i ran test for a few years till i figured out some crap. i have real high humidity so i use the salt buckets in my tent.

it the only thing i noticed in your area is the low humidity some times. so maybe a open sided hoop house with a small mister for the day time .... ? ( make it small , maybe , and start 12 / 12' sooner so you can keep them 3ft tall. dial in a little area for some of your test gear .... , with your sun it would be gold!

but i love running test & you could do a lot more than i can. if you can dial in the temps & humidity w/ sun , its the best ..... imo.
