4 Strains: 630W LEC CMH

Plants are looking good, for what they have been thru, hoping they continue to improve. They're stretching like 6 inches a day, so I'm thinking i may have to take my drain to waste table out, just to gain that foot, as they have about 8 or 10 more days of stretch. Then Watering then takes on a new meaning !! Soon as the stretch is finished, I'll take all suckers off, and remove any fan leafs blocking light.
We're getting our 1st. snow tonight !! High today was 63f, high tomorrow is 38f !! Here's pics. of day 13 of bloom.

As reported , I added earth jjuice bloom to my feed schedule, but I got a problem. I mixed 3 gal. 120ppm tap water with 3 tbsp of the bloom and 'it immediately dropped ph to like 4.2. I've let it sit now for 30 hrs. and it still checks at 47 after adding 1.5 tsp of ph up !! So I canceled watering scheduled for tonight (21st.). Hopefully, someone here uses this and can help me. I don't want to put to much ph up in the water. What is in that stuff to make the ph dip so, dramatically ??
 
I solved the ph problem, with the earth juice bloom. I thought for sure someone on this site would know, but guess not. My local hydroponics store told me just exactly to do !! So I got them all watered & fed tonight, will post pics. tomorrow night. You all have a good night !!
 
So I think all is back on track. I just wish earth juice smelled a little better ? Blooms seem to be right on track for. 17th. day of bloom. I been growing these same strains for like 1 yr. now, so I already know each strains character. The pineapple chunk has one popcorn type bud every 3 or 4 inches, and is not a big yielder, but extra potent smoke (5 of these). The blue dream is the best producer of the bunch ( 2 of these), is more of a sativa, but still finishes in 8 weeks or less with this light. i have one called krippy, and it is a very small bush, and a big producer for it's size and great bed time smoke. And one bubba's gift, which is a clone from a plant I grew outside this summer. So I don't know how it's gonna act inside yet. I do know that it brought mites with it (terrible mistake on my part ). Hopefully I've seen the last of them. I for sure want to wash tthis crop, because of all the foliar spraying for the mites. I got to read up on that, never washed ?

Hey slow, I saw from another thread that people were having problems getting here through your profile. It worked for me

How did you come up with the soil mix. I'm just using FFOF straight out of the bag. I'm halfway through my grow. I'm thinking about using Coco next time

Well, You & I are in same mode of thinking. it's really gonna be changing time schedules here. the clones I removed from the aerocloner 5 days ago, are like the size of a 2 or 3 week old clone , in soil mix, so now I'm thinking this batch is probably gonna be to big by Xmas., in coco. That's target harvest for this grow ? Guys are telling me that these lec cmh lights shorten bloom time, but we'll see !! Hang around, help me get this done and we'll learn coco farming, as we go. I've already set up a self feed system, which consists of a plastic tub, a 97 gph water pump, and few feet of hose, about $20 total. I had tub. What I don't have is a flood tray !! ha !! Seen a nice 48x48 at the hydro place for & $90, but I need other things too, so It'll have to wait. $$$ is always a problem for me, living on a fixed income. I'm gonna go over to Cultivators journal, and pick his brain !! I will post pics. in a few mins. .
Cultivator is the member who's trying to help me learn the coco, and growing in general. Check out his current journal. Alien Hydroponic EasyFeed System Day 23 :
 
So I fed them last night, 1/4 tsp. - silica blast, 1 tsp. molasses, 1.5 tbsp earth juice bloom, 1 tbsp of batt poop, and 4-6-2 all purpose scratched into top two inches. Had to flush 3 of them as TDS in runoff was like 2200 ppm. Next time I water, I will flush them all. Pics. :

No I haven't , but it hasn't spread to my flowering tent yet. And It's a quick eater and hungry bastard, and prefers blue dream. Can eat a whole leaf in like 3 days. Never experienced this before. Starts with like a crack in side of leaf !! Like it was cut with a pair if tiny scissors.
Hey, glad you found my grow !! Now help me find whatever culprit is eating my stuff !!

Yes, and now I can get my record cleaned, but I figure why !! I'm 74 and can't work, so why !! People don't know how it feels to have to cheat lie to get a job !! Finally got tired of it all and started my own business !! I have no regrets, i did nothing of the magnitude to get 5 yrs. taken from my young stupid ass !! cannoisseuras, i also learned to make pretty good apple jack, and orange prewnol, while there at California's best lodging !!
