First Grow In Over 20 Years! Northern Lights Under 600W LED

I've had black fabric pots turn white from residual salts with no harm to the plant. Soil I'm not sure but in coco we never feed pure water. You would use a dilute nute solution, plain water can shock them.

It seems that just about everybody uses liquid nutes added to their water and fertilize that way while watering but I picked up a powdered natural fertilizer from the Hydro store that is mixed in with the soil and then applied topically after a month or so.

Should I not use this powdered stuff and just use liquid fertilizer like everyone else or is there no real advantage to that. There is the powdered stuff I’m talking about in the photo. I was thinking if I used this natural ingredient powdered stuff I wouldn’t have a problem with salts but if you just have to give it a flush every fourth watering that doesn’t seem like a big issue.

Oh man with Birdie on board and Penny giving you advice, your plants won't know what hit 'em. It's all you now Homer.

I hope I don't disappoint everyone but, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink, lol.
 
Just to clarify what I may have said earlier. F-F-F-W shouldn't really apply to your situation. I would feed right through and reduce the nutes on the fourth feeding to a lower value. If you're feeding at 50% strength then on the fourth I would go to 1/4. You media shouldn't need flushing with that product. The MegaCrop is very similar, except water soluble, and I never flushed with water once.
Sorry if I misled you.

No you did not mislead me and I thought you meant that I wouldn’t have to worry about flushing probably with the product I was using. Thanks a lot for the info MrSauga and Pennywise. Now I have that flushing thing straightened out and salt and my pH I am well on the way. Much appreciated.
 
Oh we have ways of making you drink, so saddle up buckaroo.

Actually with all the expert help I have been getting I really can’t see failing and if I do I think there is really something wrong with me, LOL.
 
You're going to do fine. You already have the basics nailed and have done your research, so it's all experience gained from here on in.

Thanks for your confidence and actually I think it will work out fine too. I have somewhat successfully grown in the distant past and managed to muddle through in the dark pretty much just with trial and error so I can’t see failing with all this expert advice.
 
Nice start Looking forward to a nice harvest
BTW If you ever want to put away your PPM/EC & PH Meter and not use any chemicals
I would recommend checking out the linked thread below its very long but many pictures of what
can be expected

Doc buds high brixs

its basically point and shoot / plug and play TYPE process but you will get bored ;)
it does need a good environment to work at its best but still gives GREAT results

Hey Gazoo…

With all the recommendations for reading I have been receiving I just today was able to get around to reading some of the thread, Doc buds high brixs, you recommended to me.

I only read the first couple pages because it looks like the thread is really mostly just him posting pics of his buds and people complimenting him on how great they look and on his research but I didn’t find anything really about what is actually in his High Brix Amendment so to me it looks like he doesn’t give the information so you can make it yourself instead he sells his product on Amazon.com.

I found it on Amazon and ironically it doesn’t ship to Canada where cannabis is legal and I live. He really does seem to be very knowledgeable and producing a good product so I have no problem with a shoot/plug process or with being bored either because I have lots of other projects keeping me busy so if it ever does become available in Canada I would definitely try it.

So I was wondering since you recommended it do you actually use his system and if so what results have you had and did you find it very easy to use? Any input is welcome....
 
Oh man with Birdie on board and Penny giving you advice, your plants won't know what hit 'em. It's all you now Homer.

And MrS you have aaaabsolutely nothing to do with being here to help????
I hope I don't disappoint everyone but, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink, lol.
We are not in the position of anyone disappointing anyone.
We can try to help but we are not there, in your grow space, only you are.
If you are happy, we are too. If you are sad... We are too.
So, if you are disappointed at yourself, we are on ourselves.
Hope I made it clear....
I am playing with Brodie and orange.......
Nooo..my ball Brodie!!!!!!

I use and have used the kit twice in the past, 3rd grow running now, link at end of post .
I have found it TO EASY nothing to do so I find ways to keep myself involved but I could actually just
check in on them once a week and still have TOP SHELF CLEAN product

He does list the ingredients but you have to look for them in older thread post when he was still working
on the kit. It has been put together by an AGRICULTURAL LAB using the EXACT amendments needed for the SPECIFIC type
of soil (Pro-Mix HP) Test were done and the amendments precisely put together for an AMAZINGLY SIMPLE process

Dont take my word for it, look in that tread and notice its not all Docs grow there are many pictures of User grows
to compare and Nearly ALL EXPRESS how easy it is and the TOP QUALITY it produces

I'm more modest than egotistical so I never look at myself as helping. I see it more in other than myself in otherwords.

Thank you AngryBird, I am very happy with how my plants are doing and all the advice and kindness I have received from you and the others. What a nice community.

Thank you Gazoo, I had a look at your Journal and you have quite the system and methods and it’s amazing how green and healthy your plants look using Doc Bud's system. I can’t wait to see how they finish out. If that was available in Canada I would definitely give it a go so I hope it will be sometime soon. Thanks again for the info.

You certainly are very modest Mr Sauga because you have definitely given me the most help and it is greatly appreciated! Thanks again.
 
I started germinating this feminized Northern Lights auto nine days ago and it is looking pretty happy and only about a little over an inch tall which is great because my other Northern Lights that are photo period about 3 inches tall at this point falling over so it is good to see I have my lights positioned properly now. Thanks for straightening me out about that fiasco, LOL.
