Bunch o' great pics as usual guys!!

@Tnelz Sorry to hear your having issues and issues. Hope things get back on track soon in your room and the room of life as well.
@Toaster79 You think maybe that the hot nutes just baked off your root hairs, which lowered the ability for uptake vs an actual lock-out?
@Pimp T Ye the Pro-mix HP I have is / was also pretty dry (though I always dry out all my mixes). However, I'm leaning away from pro-mix. I'm not fond of the calcitic lime and sometimes the pH is too high.

Huge thanks for the heads up man much appreciated. What ph readings do u get?

It's pretty dry upon opening. I put mine in a large tote and listed it for like 3 days. Then covered. The condensation than allowed it to be just about as wet as a fresh bag of ffof.

Im sure I am all alone here bc im slow..lol..but what do you mean you "listed" it for 3 days...then covered. What does this mean? Sorry bro

I'm pretty sure it was a typo and he meant misted it, kept it moist to activate things.

Correct me if I'm wrong @Tnelz and sorry to hear bout your troubles bro. Sending positive vibes your way bro.

Anybody ever use pro mix hp 3.8 bale. If so is it dry as fuck and compressed like the 3.8 bale of regular sphagnum peat moss is?

Best medium I ever used and won't use anything else. Its always bug free and its nice a porous its so fluffy I love mixing it up. One 3.8 bale should fill up 4.5 18 ltr totes. I usually add perlite and 20 lbs of ewc and last few runs dry roots organic amendment's. I'm about to buy 5 more and switch to notg nutes

@Tnelz I had a bad feeling starting to read that post. Sorry to hear about the bugs and handle your business by all means I can wait.

Looking great man!! Thats so cool, I had no idea that you could even do that before this thread..deff going have to try that out!

Lazerus00 · Aug 4, 2015

On a separate note...lets say you dont realize until late in flower that one of your girls is a real keeper..can you take a cut at that time?? And if you can, then you could make that cut a mother right? mothers don't have to come from seed right? Please and thank you guys...I knoe I ask a lot of questions...

I've seen guys clone flowers before, and by that I mean grown roots while in the cloner. I don't know if it ended up reveging past that but seeing as I've revegged plants by leaving some leaves on after harvest and was successful, so I don't see why you couldn't do it that way either. Just the longer you wait, the harder it will be to be successful. But in my experience most plants will reveg for you if you treat them right.

And that cut can definitely become a mother, you just have to veg it big enough to clone from.

CBDEMON · Aug 4, 2015

@Pimp T - If the bale is properly sealed with no holes from handling them rough then it should be moderately moist out of the bag. It does say that you are supposed to rehydrate it to get it to the proper moisure for planting in. I have been running pro mix hp amended with black gold organic potting mix (adapted from waayne's mix) the last two years and I love it for how I grow

You can do exactly like you said if the plant isn't too far. I never had any luck rooting nearly finished buds but 3 weeks in rooted just fine, maybe even better that veging cuts. What you get is a monster mother with massive branching and a whole bunch of new cuts really fast.

giggles · Aug 4, 2015

I've taken cuts at week 6-7 and have successfully got them to root and reveg back into a mother.

Toaster79 · Aug 4, 2015

@Lazerus00 this plant I posted is a clone of a reveged clone turned into a bonsai mother. The clone started flowering right before it was put outside. Id didn't take long for her to get back on track.

Okay that sparks another question for you...whats a bosai mother? for that matter what does bonsai have to do with cannabis?

CBDEMON · Aug 4, 2015

its just a loosely used term for a real small bushy mother plant @Lazerus00 . A lot of the people who go that route are those who have very little grow space

It was a really small and bushy plant grown out of a bud where each calyx represents possible branch.

Here are some photos so you'll get the idea what I'm babling about :)

Keep it green!

@Pimp T stop searching for a better medium. Go coco loco if u can get it. It's all the benifits of coco but acts just like soil. Its a hybrid of the two. Out yields soil just like coco but zero hassles that coco sometimes give u. Amazing stuff. U can run it any way u want. Organic or synthetic and it completely rocks. I suggest everyone try it. My favorite medium right now is coco loco mixed with Rockwoll croutons. About 70 30 coco loco to rockwoll. Amazing growth. I'll be blooming my yeti 7 and gg4 in that medium as soon as I get them cleaned up. Screw the rockwoll mix but give coco loco a shot and you will thank me.

I usually see about 6.3, though by itself as a medium; it will hold that pH or similar very well. The carbonates in the calcitic lime will "buffer" better than the Calcium released in dolomite lime and it is fairly evident. For me, running a Quote: Soiless setup; I just have a bit of troubles trying to bring it down with nutes or whatnot. I feel if this medium was used as the peat fraction in an organic soil; the extra buffer may be quite welcome. Personally, I just went back to a dolomite only peat for my mixes, but nothing is really "wrong" with the pro-mix. The only other thing that I could say I didn't care for, was sometimes my cuts would get some purple stripes in the mainstem while rooting into the medium (though my cuts are usually rooted for 1 week in aero type cloner, so decent roots).

@Lazerus00 I've only done cuts 3 weeks in, so I can't help much there.

I always take backup cuts and treat em like crap until I know if they are of value. :D Naw, but I don't up-pot em.

The bottom of the container is flat. It's pushing itself outta the pot with roots some. Y'all think I should re-pot this yet? :)
