5 OG's, Medic Grow Fold 8 LED, Prescription Blend Nutrients & Me!

[Bill284]

Big Data says (0 - 5.6 - 3.4) on the Front. On the back it says :5.6% Phosphate (P2O5) & 3.4% Soluble Potash (K2O).
I have no idea if there's a build up around the roots. I never check run off pH. You think maybe I should do a flush on Sunday before I feed ? I figure I have about 2 - 3 weeks left on her till harvest.
I defoliated the OG KUSH this morning when I fed. I found a couple of leaves starting to do the same thing on her.
Still have to upload the pics for posting, so that will be sometime later today. I figure she will finish in 2 weeks or less.
I'll be checking the Trichs soon as she has about 60 - 65% red hairs now.

I don't think it would hurt.
Good nutrients ,Ph ,water........ everything else is on point.
So I think that will rectify the issue.
Give it a try hopefully that takes care of it.

Stay safe
Bill

High Again ! Hope So ! I finally got my lazy, procrastinating ass up yesterday & did a defol on the OG KUSH. I did find a couple of yellowing leaves; but they are at the bottom of the plant & look more like leaves do when they are getting closer to harvest. "N" def. looking. All 3 OG's got fed this morning but I lowered the Big Data to 5.5 ml. per gal.
Here's some before defol pics.

 

[Buds Buddy]

And here she is after the defol. Are you cringing Bill ? Yes, I got a little carried away. It's just so hard to stop.

As you can see she is not too far from harvest; so I think the heavy defol will be fine. I sure didn't expect this one to finish first. Actually wish she had a longer flower time so her buds would fatten up more. Nothing wrong with what's there. But fatter is nicer when it comes to Bud.

 

[Buds Buddy]

May as well add a few group shots.

So the "SKYWALKER OG" has about 90% White Hairs still & she isn't real bushy so I may or may not do just a minor defol on her today. Still debating on that one.
The Re-Veg was putting out some Red Hairs, but when I looked at lights on today it was covered in a bunch of fresh white hairs again. I hate & love when this happens. I hate it because it makes it hard for me to determine when to harvest. I love it because the buds get fatter. She's got some nice fat buds now that are weighing the branches down.
I'll probably work on her today while I debate the SKYWALKER defol. Not much trimming to do, but there's some branches that need tied up before they snap.

 

[Buds Buddy]

I went ahead & did the work on the Re-Veg "CHERRY ON TOP" this morning. So she was the culprit that made my tent look sloppy.... lol. It took about a dozen sticks to get her all tied up. I did some defol on her too. She actually looks like a nice plant now. I didn't take any before pics of this one.... but I'm sure you will notice the difference from prior pics & how neat the tent looks in the group shots.
Here's some pics.

 

[Buds Buddy]

Merry Christmas Everyone ! May you Fly as "HIGH" as a Reindeer.
We were suppose to BBQ Steaks today but rained all day yesterday & there's suppose to be more today. Ended up buying a spiral ham & inviting the Stepson, his girl & the 4 G.Kids over for dinner. After that it will be time to watch the Cardinals & hope like hell they get off this losing streak. Sure don't look like the same team they started as by any means.

Merry Christmas my friend.
Hope you have a great day with the family.
Sorry about the rain, but at least you don't have to shovel it.

Stay safe

Pulling the plug on the Re-Veg. She still has a few white pistils on the tops of the main colas / buds; but the Trichs are completely cloudy & about 20% Amber so she has to come down. I put her in the closet for her 36 hours of dark time.
Down to the 3 OG's & they appear to be finishing up right behind the Cherry on Top. Trim jail.... here I come.

Hey Buds

All looks Mickey Mouse in your grow tent.

You really do grow like a Boss

Hey, Hey, Hey, I'm back with a little update on things. I've got my little Germination Station put together. I'll post a few pics in a minute.
But first, Last night I Put the 6.4 pH'd water through my soil. I'd say right around 26 oz. per pot; which gave me quite a bit of run off. I hadn't thought about this before, but I hear a lot of folks say FFOF is too hot to start seeds. I use it to start seeds every time. But I'm wondering if these 2 good watering's I do before I plant my seeds is the reason things work out for me. Just a thought. So here's a pic showing how much run off I got. This was about the same amount as the 1st time.

In my Germ. room I have the SF D-1000 Light. Unfortunately, No Dimmer on this light so we'll be going by Height.
I have a Temp & Humidity Monitor & 2 small 4" USB Fans in there also. If needed I'll add the 1 gal. Humidifier.
So here's a couple of shots of the "Germination Station".

In the morning, We Plant the Seeds !

I will do all my Tagging & Posting Info on the "MEDIC GROW Fold 8" LED Light & "PRESRIPTION BLEND NUTRIENTS" by tomorrow night; so see you at the same Bat Time, on the same Bat Channel !

you are way too neat! my grows usually look like a dog was in there fooling around.

i am looking forward to wandering through this and the other thread.

carry on!

Happy New Year Buds. Wishing you health and happiness throughout 2022. Stay well brother.

Harvested the Cherry on Top. Got my usual 5 oz. off of her. Really good buzz from the joint I tried. On the shelf for curing now.

I am a bit of a neat freak.... lol. Hope you find some good info in the journals.

You picked that cherry twice

Looking fantastic Buds!

Hope you had a great New Year

And GZ for the harvest! 5 oz warms the heart when the smoke is primo

The other day I was smoking a joint & I got to thinking I should apply for a job at NASA. I'm sure I've been way Higher & more Spaced Out than any astronaut. Doesn't that make me qualified ? The things we come up with when stoned can sure give us a good laugh at times.

i like to go swimming in my aquarium, in my head. getting wasted on chocolate and music.

High All ! As you know I up-potted to 3 gal. pots. I gave them 24 hours and then fed them (outer edges only) with Week 1 Prescription Blend Veg Nutes. So here are some of the details.
Water Only pH : 7.8
Water PPM : 238

Week 1 Pescription Blend Nutrients mixed at 1 gallon :
Nute Mix pH : 7.2
Nute Mix PPM : 589

I had to use 1.5 ml. of pH Down to bring the pH to 6.3

Here's what I used Nutrient wise per gallon. Mixed in the order of the Pics & the Prescription Blend Chart.
2 ml. of Bio-Si
5 ml. of Core A
5 ml. of Core B
2 ml. of Kelp-Ful
2 ml. of Precursor 1

Each Plant got 24 oz. around the outer edge of the pots.

*** Unfortunately my eyesight is pretty bad these days. I can't see good enough to read the writing on the Pipettes that were included with the Prescription Blend Nutrients. Therefore I'm using my 10 ml. Glass Eyedroppers for measuring. To be honest... the writing on them is even hard to see. Working on getting corrective eye surgery now.***

The 10 ml. eyedroppers fit in the Core A & B bags with no problem. The hole is too small in the smaller bags; so I'm using desert cups to pour some in so I can measure.

this is like reading a book. will he like the light? will the nutes be as good as their packaging looks? will i try to understand LUX (that's a joke, i won't) ? i take leaf temps and pray.

i started using AN when they first started selling to the states. due to it's labeling, i would have it sent to a friend's place. like with seeds and equipment. HEY PEOPLE, LOOK, I'M DELIVERING WEED FERTILIZERS TO THIS GUY!!!!

now that we're legal, i don't care. at the end of this, if you like the ferts, i'm in for the next grow.


the light looks like a killer. it's impressive.

Things are starting to come around. I am really surprised I over watered. Not like me not to check the pot weight first.
Being in a rush got me in trouble. There's a good lesson on what "Not to Do" for all of us. Do not water without checking pot weight or you may end up wasting a week or so of grow time like I just did.
I'm pretty impressed on how bright this Medic Grow Light is. I'm only running on 60% & the plants seem to be loving it.

i never thought of weighing the damn things. good idea, added to my growing list of things to do . i water like with my 1000 W HID. big mistake.
