Frost advisory last night. There's still 3 weeks until I got to up pot them. I thought I was late on the start. Fuck I'm like @Bilber thread name. Jammin on it with a late Early start. LolNo way brother! Folks around here aren’t even out yet : ) i mean some are starting but the majority wait till the first. I mean if your lows are still fairly low you wouldn’t want them out anyways. Awesome spot though!

As a couple people pointed out, some plants are just hungrier than others.I been following what it said on bottle. All three every other feeding. There whole lives.
Week 4 is when I started feeding. I been over feeding than probably under. And the micro all the way to end. Fucking up big time and for like 3 whole runs. Thanks @Greenadian bro!
I should have known I could just use what is needed. For the stage of life.
@Spliffy twojoints brother I was feeding my plants based off what fox farms nutes said every other. Advanced nutrients calls for feeding every rip. I don't even know what I was doing to my plants. At best they been getting half fed. I think also my calmag is a every feed nute. Thanks to my nigga @BearWater lead me to the feeding charts. He's better at Google and research.As a couple people pointed out, some plants are just hungrier than others.
Maybe just try increasing the bottled nutes for that one plant for now.
There are lots of good liquid nutrients out there, I’ve used quite a few and they all have pros and cons.
That said, I have been using all organic dry nutrients for about four grows and counting and it is so much easier! If you want to spend less time watering/feeding and enjoy other benefits, this is the way to do it.
I am using Gaia Green products, a veg (4-4-4) or a bloom (2-8-4), and add some of their glacial rock dust along with earthworm castings combined with Pro Mix HP, which already has mycorrhiza. It all gets dumped into a large tote box where I mix 10 gallons of pro mix with the other ingredients, right in the veg room. I can use it right away or just leave it in the box until I’m ready.
After that initial soil mix, you just water as needed, no storing or messing around with multiple bottles and measuring spoons/cups, no constant mixing of liquids and making mistakes, no spills or getting bad mixes because you didn’t shake or stir something enough etc.
When it comes to watering it’s a quick and painless procedure every time so I’ll never go back to bottles.
If you end up with a very hungry plant or leave a plant in a pot longer than expected, you can just sprinkle a little of the dry organic food on the soil, mix it in about half an inch deep and water. The plant will be able to get those nutrients in a couple days.
I feel mixing organic amendments into the soil and then just watering regularly is a much more natural type of feeding for the plant. It’s not getting different amounts of food each watering and it’s not just waiting there for you to bring those nutrients. The plant can find them and take them up as it pleases and just needs water to keep living and thriving.
The next evolutionary step in this process would be true living soil, but that’s a little above my level of knowledge right now.
The box is looking awesome!!!! For sure!!!The box is looking good! Pictures.
Bilber go out back of your liquor store. There's just tons of them around. There coke labeled and Pepsi. The ones that lay flat are great for plants. Bro I used to use wood. You told me that was no good.The box is looking awesome!!!! For sure!!!
I love the trays you're using!! Pepsi or universal.....I might be looking into something like that....
Shit I just go out back liquor store and take those plastic racks. I spend enough money in there on cigarillos alone they can suck it up if a few go missing. Everything is on camera and I don't hide. They must not care.Bilber go out back of your liquor store. There's just tons of them around. There coke labeled and Pepsi. The ones that lay flat are great for plants. Bro I used to use wood.

Yeah, there can be a big difference from one brand of bottles to another. You’ll find people swearing up and down that one is superior and you’ll find just as many people hating on it.@Spliffy twojoints brother I was feeding my plants based off what fox farms nutes said every other.

Ph pen is my next buy. I can't accurately say what pH my water is. Blue lab is good right?
Vivosun pH pen was junk. I calibrated with the solutions than cleaned off and stuck it back in solutions. Wasn't accurate on all 3. Like 2 points off wasn't even close to any.
Dude, things are looking great! The flowering plants look happier than they have been! Nice job on the recovery!Ok pictures from veg area.
11 weeks for bigger plants. Still green.
17 days of life for the seedlings. There's a little twisting of leaves but there green and growing. The little light is doing just fine.
6 weeks of flower in the box.
Both plants got ugly. I know it's pretty much nothing I can do for the poor girls now. Just feed em right and let em limp out the last 2 3 weeks. Buds are growing and I did a quick inspection I don't see any seeds growing so that's good.
