re: Irish Boy's - 480W & 720w Grow LED Hydro - Land Of Clovers
ya they hooked it up best sample ive ever gotten thats for sure.lol i got stuff for everything, from soil to hydro even DWC! and their good bags to last for a while. I am kinda having a change of mind and not running their synthetic TRF against the organics and just all 4 the organics. they when i harvest my DM tent ill do a little side by side of DM vs their synthetic TRF. i things thats best instead of vs organics. synthetic vs synthetic. Their a good population of growers that want to go organics and organic growers that would prefer to give these organics a true run with all 4 plants so i dont have to worry about each plant being equal and and chance something to go wrong with 1-2 clones and throw the whole test off. also the tea is to be feed 1 quart to each plant 1 a week and i have to make a gallon, i really dont want to have to waist 1/2 of my tea because the other plants arnt organic, dont get me wrong i would just throw the other 1/2 of 2 of my DM plants because i wouldn't want to waist it but i rather not. the company made me a feed chart and its all broken down for me fo i will just follow that and see what happens. i am very excited because ive been wanting to try growing organics and have organic meds, never had that before that i know of? sorry if this disappointed any of you but i think its a more fair test to do synthetic vs synthetic

How often are you giving them seaweed ? Every watering ?

It's all chemicals to me, whether "organic" or "synthetic", so I see it just as comparing one of their product lines versus another, but doing all 4 plants with the same nutes will make things a lot easier and simpler, so I completely understand your decision.
Also, when your sample size doubles from 2 to 4 plants, your results will be a lot more useful and accurate.

re: Irish Boy's - 480W & 720w Grow LED Hydro - Land Of Clovers
i do it every watering witch is once a week. IMO when you have clones or seedlings thats all you need to give them
ya i here you, its all the same. it would just make things allot easier and allot more accurate doing it this way like u said. its better to see how something works with 4 plants rather then 2. then when my tent is free ill try out their synthetic stuffIt's all chemicals to me, whether "organic" or "synthetic", so I see it just as comparing one of their product lines versus another, but doing all 4 plants with the same nutes will make things a lot easier and simpler, so I completely understand your decision.

NEW 600W LED GROW
heres the new 600w GLH led grow room feed with Xtreme-Gardening Mykos & mykos30 organic food. I got hooked up on some good size clones that are pure Jack Herer. these will be LST once i feel the roots are in the medium good, they have a good size root mass right now. they ready to be flowed as is, so LST'ing will di perfect time soon. i just feed them plain tap water with no PH'ing like i was directed to do.

re: Irish Boy's - 480W & 720w Grow LED Hydro - Land Of Clovers
nice Irish!
looking forward to seeing how this nute line performs.
Those clones are good-sized.
How long are you planning to veg them after you LST?

AS SOON AS I THINK THEY ROOTS ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO HANDLE THE LST,(thinking late this week) I WILL LST THEM AND GIVE THEM A WEEK AFTER THAT THEN FLOWER. I KNOW THESE GIRLS WILL STRETCH LIKE MY XJ-13 DID SO 12" IS WHAT I AM SHOOTING FOR.
MY 480W GROW TENT WILL BE LST'ed TONIGHT. THEN A WEEK FROM NOW THEY WILL BE FLOWERED ALSO.
YOU AND ME BOTH, I AM ALL DOWN FOR ORGANICS. I JUST CANT RAP MY MIND AROUND NO PH'ing THE WATER. HOPE ALL IS GOING TO GO SMOOTH. IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THESE CLONES FOR A VERY LONG TIME, NOT EASY FOR ME TO COME BY SOME JACK HERER CLONE.Nice..I want to see how good this nute lineup works for you... I will be watching for sure...
Thanks for the test..

We've had this discussion many times before....but pHing water only applies to hydro. Doing it in soil is generally speaking a waste of time.
If the water's total alkalinity is too high, don't use it!
Good water needs no pHing in soil, the larger the pot, the more bad water it can handle....so if you grew in 10 gallon pots, you could probably use really bad water and be ok.

High Irish, It will be great for me to see what you can do with the Jacks. I have one in flower now, it's stretched well over a foot since I flipped her... and I'm hoping for more

Since bringing my TA in check as per Doc's suggestion, I have noticed a world of difference. I wish I would have done it YEARS ago!
Thanks Doc. Hope everybody learns from experiences such as those/these.

re: Irish Boy's - 480W & 720w Grow LED Hydro - Land Of Clovers
Thats interesting that the bigger the pot the worse water you can use. i am in 5gal pots.
i thought a while ago though this only applies to if you soil is adjusted to balance out the water ur putting in like using lime or other soil additives to compensate ur tap water?
Thanks for the info Doc
thanks for sharing ur experience with this. good to know
what about SS#4 since its not soil? i believe the company knows that their micro life will take care of the food getting to the plants and adjust the PH. this is why i believe they say dont PH ur water with their products? Ive never checked my water but i am sure it sucks, i wouldn't drink it.lol. but somehow i seem to grow good weed with it?

yes this will be cool. thanks for the info so far on the stretching. ive been told she will stretch and thats how this strain should be grown nice and tall.High Irish, It will be great for me to see what you can do with the Jacks.

I couldn't fix my tap water, it's way too hard and alkaline, so I've started collecting rainwater off the roof. It has a ppm of 25, and with the addition of cal-mag, the ladies absolutely love it.
I wanted bad to be able to use my tap water, but in retrospect, I can now see why I had some of the problems I had in past grows when I was using it, even in soil.
It's around 250ppm, mostly calcium, and even soil can't buffer it well.
If I was growing on a larger scale, I'd set up a more professional rainwater collection system with maybe an underground tank, but for now, a couple of rain barrels will hold enough until the next rainy season.
I prefer using rainwater to RO or distilled. It has some nitrogen in it, and my plants just seem to respond best to it, but RO with cal-mag works great too.
I still wish I could use tap, because it keeps things simple, but the rain barrels will be just as easy and simple once I get them set up on cinder blocks so the spigots are off the ground high enough to put a bucket under them.
