Hey, if you cheat and prosper, it ain't a bad thing. I'm all for synth nutes wink

Well, there is method in my madness. I want her strong for transplant, and to have a good solid root ball to help insure she gets through it easy with minimal bruised roots. So there you have it, lol!

Sounds like a great plan girl I'm sure you'll have no problems transplanting

 

[BeccaBuds]

55 days since germination. She used all 8 ounces of nutrient solution I gave her yesterday so I gave her another cup today.

 

[BeccaBuds]

She needed another 8 oz cup again last night and tonight she needs refreshing again. She's a very thirsty gal!

 

[BeccaBuds]

SIP SIP HOORAY!
It's transplant day!

Into a four gallon SIP

of mushroom'd soil,

That is to say!

​

Reservoir is at 3.75" after top watering and then filling reservoir to overflow. She's going to go crazy in this B+ inoculated soil. Away we go!

Absolutely gorgeous

She is incredibly healthy, Tassie. I don't think I have ever grown another plant like this. No yellow leaf tips anywhere, no dying leaves either. I wonder if the mushroom mycelium is part of the reason why?

You're absolutely spot on, she looks indestructible I'm not sure, maybe the mycelium provided some beneficial bacteria, but that's just theoretical

Maybe it's breaking down the soil and making nutrients more available? Who knows? Sure is a hale plant for whatever reason!

Now that's a good thought makes more sense than my idea. Might be worth doing a controlled test in the future
Whatever it is though, it's definitely working girl!!!

This is def out of control lol! Let's see... the soil is Fox Farm Ocean Forest to start, used 2 seasons, amended with mycorrhizae, Geoflora Veg, Geoflora Bloom, colonized B+ shroom substrate, and while in the small pot she got a blend of GH MaxiGro and GH MaxiBloom plus Cal/Mag. I dumped the leftover GH nutrient solution (about a half gallon) into the SIP reservoir. She's probably good for a couple weeks at least.

Whoaaaa!!! That's insane
She if defs gonna be one mutant beast of a plant
LOVE IT

Geoflora is more natural, GH's Maxi is more "adjustable", @TassieTurtleman . Whatever it is, she is very healthy, so on to bud growin' time!

61 days since germination, 2 months to the day. She's still small, but last one I grew stretched like a rubber band in flowering, so it's time to flip to 12 hour days, starting with tonight's 9:00PM OFF time. Tomorrow she sleeps in until 9:00AM. It will be her first short day.

Well, whatever it is, it fricken works wonders!!!
Wow, I didn't realise it had only been 2 months, that's an astounding amount of grow
I'm keen for you to flip, so i can watch her do her thing in flower mode!!
Do you know what kind of terpenes she throws out?

 

[BeccaBuds]

Her primary is myrcene, with caryophyllene and limonene overtones. Last time it was potent and tasty so I'm growing some more! It should be just in time for xmas, lol!

If not xmas, then New Years. We'll see how long she takes to mature!

 

[BeccaBuds]

Day 62 since germination, day 1 of flip. She's past whatever minimal transplant shock she experienced and is starting to hook into her new SIPuation. Res is at 3-1/4" today. Going to have to thin the dense undergrowth soon.

 

[BeccaBuds]

63 days in, 2nd 12 hour day. She looks like she's "praying". I'll take that as a sure sign she's hooking into the SIP. She's stretched a little bit, too.

 

[BeccaBuds]

64 days, 3 of them in flowering. Res is 3-1/8" full today. Plant looks great, no issues.
