Re: SouthernWeed Swims Again.DWC/H&G Nutrients
my 2c on #2:
If purple isn't a priority, and extracting the very last gram is, I'd go with whatever method you think will give you the biggest yield or the one you'd enjoy the most doing.
Even though you're a flexible grower, I would think you have your preferences as far as grow styles.
I'm more concerned with getting the last gram out of the Violator Kush than I am with the Purple Wreck.
And you are quite correct, I do have a preferred grow method, but let's face it, soil grows can be a little dull if you're not doing something different. Having said that, my initial leaning is to soil grow them with the H&G soil line, as a demonstration of their performance. I've noticed a few new journals popping up where people are using the H&G stuff, but they're all hydro grows, and there may be people on the fence with making a nutrient change until someone shows what they'll do, a completely reasonable position.

Week 8 nutrient list
Aqua Flakes A 60ml
Aqua Flakes B 60ml
Bud XL 15.2ml
Drip Clean 1.6ml
Shoot Powder .20 Sachet by weight (this is a slightly hot mix...it calls for .16 Sachet, but it was nearly impossible to get the weight dead on, so I'm giving just a bit extra and if I see problems, I'll dilute the res with PH adjusted water).
I know what y'all are all thinking...he's getting in a hurry, adding stuff a day early...needs to keep it on schedule. I hear what you're thinking people...I'm just that good.
Actually, the buckets were just completely used up this morning, and with one day to go until I needed to swap buckets, I just went ahead and did it today. No sense in wasting half a bucket each.
I took a few pics this morning, wanting to show bud pics before the addition of the Shooting Powders, but I slammed the desk drawer on my mini USB cable and bent it pretty well closed, so I'll be running to Best Buy in a bit to grab another one.
I'll say that Legs is already thick as a brick and twice as hard. Trichome production is in full swing, and the smell is downright overpowering. I think she's going to be some fine smoke.
The Runt is closed up now and is beginning to swell herself. Trichome production is about the same as Legs last week. I really debated whether or not to put the SP to her or wait a week, but in the end I decided to let her have it. I may drop a bit of yield on her, as she's a week behind but will get no quarter. When Legs is ready, so is she. I need the space for the VK, which are currently on a week 1 aggressive feed schedule in a nursery tub.
Well, I'll get those pics up later today.
Y'all have a great day.
