Time for another update, sorry I haven't posted much since last week. Been crazy busy with interviews, planning for purchasing some land, and work consuming my life. Anyways, did the res change out I should've done yesterday today, and based on how the girls are looking, went ahead and opted to start the
MOAB a few days earlier than planned. That'll allow me to bump the ratio up more, sooner, than if I'd waited.
Instead of going full strength from the word go this time since I burned the girls a bit when I applied it earlier this run, I went ahead and went with quarter strength to start. I dropped the main two-part feed by 25% by volume as well to accommodate for the potency of
MOAB.
Per the label it recommends:
5ml - 10ml (1 tsp - 2 tsp) per 5 gallons of solution.
This table is for anyone else in the future that is using this so that they're not running into the same mathing needs like I have
5ml (10ml) = 6.5 grams (13 grams) / 5 gallons
1.3 grams (2.6 grams) / gallon for full strength
As of today, I used 0.325 grams / gallon. This came out to the following feed levels to 12 gallons:
36ml h2o2
60ml
Protekt
40ml Phosphoric acid
Part A 33 grams
Part B 29.7 grams
MOAB 3.9 grams
10ml Phosphoric acid
85ml
Hygrozyme
Final volume: 850 ppm (1.7 EC)
There is some bleaching happening on a few of the buds, but I don't anticipate that being an issue. I'm stuck dealing with the foxtailing as well as (a) it's not a significant problem for me personally and (b) I'd rather keep the light penetration getting down lower into the canopy than have picture perfect topside flowers. It is what it is.
The frost is strong, definitely the frostiest flowers I've ever grown, the smells are on point, and they're starting to get floppy so I'm good with the trade offs.
Anyways, here's some pictures.
