Farside05's Super Secret Weed Feed Grow

Could just be the plant being finicky

Most likely, based on the other 3 plants and past experience, but I'm trying to keep an open mind about all possibilities.
 
Did some bowl training on the second Ice Cool and also took off a few leaves. She looks a little barren after that but I bet in a few days when she reshapes she'll look better.

Removed a few leaves from Blueberry Kush

Purple Kush still isn't declawed. Hoping that changes in a couple days.

Basking in the purple glow

The Ice Cools and Blueberry Kush will probably need a drink today. Purple Kush won't need anything for a while after her flush.
 
Purple Kush and the bigger Ice Cool were thirsty so I watered them all, just the other 2 less. The smaller Ice Cool has reshaped after her bowl training and defoliation. I took a few leaves off the bigger Ice Cool. It's buds are the slowest developing of the 4. Despite being the runt, I did take a few fans from Purple Kush that we're shading lower buds.

Fed the girls. Upped the Kelp to 2 tsp, gave them their first dose of Sweet (1 tsp), plus their regular dose of SSWF (4 tsp).

She has the most amazing smell. It's not weedy at all. I'd love to have a good sized plant of her. Maybe the next seed will produce a more robust plant.
 
Well this thread is getting stale. Lets see if this will liven anything up. Here it is, the giant secret.....



Super Secret Weed Feed is...


PEOPLE! Wait, that's Soylent Green.


No, Super Secret Weed Feed is...


Orchid Fertilizer! aka Michigan State Orchid Fertilizer aka MSU Fertilizer

13-2-13 Orchid food from start to finish. No switching to a bloom formula. A 1 part granular feed, diluted in a quart of water so I can measure out the quantity/dosing of it that I desire. The cost for the Orchid food? A staggering $11 which looks like it would last 4 plants through 2 photo grows or maybe 3 auto grows.


There you go. Discuss. If you care, I'll share the reasoning for this choice.


 
Seems to work fine. Don't know if there is a vast improvement over the Foliage Pro I was using before. Pretty much same result in my opinion. The Foliage Pro is a bit easier to use since it more concentrated than what I have the SSWF mixed at, and if I tried to make the SSWF more concentrated, I'd most likely have problems getting it to all dissolve.
 
Excited to see how this turns out. After three years of using Dyna Gro products as my fertilizer line, and having decent success, I'm doing a trail run on something different. I originally had a big long post of how I came to select this particular fertilizer and all the science behind it, but that would bore the hell out of all the non geeks. Instead I'll just label it Super Secret Weed Feed and run with that. Let's just say that it's very "unconventional" when it comes to cannabis growing, and I haven't been able to find where anyone has used it before. I'm gonna play Guinea Pig. It can go three ways: 1) I'll either get the best crop I've ever had, 2) it won't show any significant improvements over my past efforts, or 3) it will be a disaster. I'm hoping for the first but everyone likes to watch a train wreck (#3). Tune in to find out how it goes.

For this grow I'm growing:

Blueberry Kush Auto - Nirvana
Purple Kush Auto - Buddha
Sweet Ice Cool Auto x2 - Sweet Seeds

The other particulars:

32"x32" Grow tent
4 - Mars Hydro 300w LED lights (140w actual draw)
Reverse Osmosis purified water
Pro Mix BX as the growing medium in 5 gallon fabric pots
27" tower fan for blowing on the plants
6" carbon filter connected to a 400cfm fan for exhaust, vented to outdoors

The seeds made their way into Jiffy Pellets today. Off we go!

PS - If there is enough interest maybe I'll get into my fertilizer selection process, otherwise we'll just let it rest. My guess is that it will only be of interest if I knock the cover off this grow.

I had to sub up in this man the title is just too good to not stop in and say sup.

Secrets lol

Dirty . ✊

Good to have you King. I try to come up with a theme for each grow and a catchy headline to rope people in. Maybe for the next grow I should title it "Free seeds, apply within". I bet that would draw some traffic..lol
