i was wondering when do you start feeding unsulphered molasses to the myco and how often?

 

[Pennywise]

Yea that sounds like a rough one! Lol

 

[Pennywise]

You could feed molasses anytime to feed the microherd.

 

[Fuzzy1981]

so one tablespoon per gallon? and it's ok to feed mollasses every watering?

 

[Pennywise]

I wouldn’t feed every watering just from time to time. Anytime the plant really slows down.

 

[Fuzzy1981]

ok sounds good, thanks for the tip!

 

[Fuzzy1981]

here it is this morning, way better than what it was 24 hours ago!

 

[Gadfly]

happy girl

 

[Pennywise]

Looks happy now, good job!

 

[Fuzzy1981]

Looks happy now, good job!

thank you, i'll post a pic of the critical mass tomorow after it has some time to recuperate. just got done with putting in the last of the water now at 12:30 p.m. started with the tilling and watering at 8:30 a.m. shaved a good bit of time off of it after i got some experience on the first one.

 

[Pennywise]

Sounds good, I’ll be around.

 

[Fuzzy1981]

an update on both plants.

 

[Fuzzy1981]

five degrees below zero tonight :S but i guess for mid january it could be worse.

 

[Pennywise]

Cold here too, I’m already tired of the cold! Lol

i know, and it's going to be around for a while, they say saturday it's not going to get above zero for the high. im hoping for an early spring, some years we still have ice on lake superior in the begining of june.

I lived in Lake Michigan as a kid and winters horrendous!

 

[Fuzzy1981]

day 22 and doing good!

I lived in Lake Michigan as a kid and winters horrendous!

especially when a polar vortex comes through. a few years ago almost every day for january and febuary got down to 35 below. the town that i work at had to have everyone leave there water running day and night for two months so the towns pipes didn't freeze up.

Following along. Stumbled on your journal and the conversation on the 1st page regarding FF Ocean Forest. I have been researching the too hot subject lately and I came to the conclusion based on my own experience with FFOF and what I read. In almost every case where people thought it to be too hot, they never used a pH meter to water, hence the unhealthy plant. Cheers man, ladies looking good!

That will be a good gage for you to see how well you’ve done. I prefer the lift method. You pot should be much heavier and a lot easier to tell going from cups to 3 gallon. Do both, as they both serve a purpose and will help you get a feel for the process.

Also, here’s a really good read.
The Proper Way To Water A Potted Plant

I use the lift method also. To me it's easy to tell the difference between a wet pot and a dry pot.
