Hello All!

Hey bro. The plants look fine in my opinion. The last one looks like it might need a little something but other than that they look pretty good. This is the reason I’m not a soil guy. I don’t like how much time it takes to see a change. You can feed it today and won’t see drastic changes until next week. Anyways I’m sure you will get it sorted and they will flower out without a hitch.
Peace brotha
Thanks brother!
I ran botanicare with pro mix for years thinking I could nail organic soil soon but I've been slap a couple of times..lol..just trying to find out this recipe she likes..lol.thanks for stopping by bro
 
@Sparkey224, You are approaching this organic thing as if you were still in charge of feeding your plants. You have taken a good mineralized and cooked soil, and added uncooked amendments into it, and are continuing to add more as topdressings.

A word about topdressing... All that can be immediately available to to the plant is whatever small component of the raw material that happens to be water soluble. The rest just sits there in the soil, waiting to be broken down into its core components. All of that excess raw nutrient is sitting and building up in your soil... with nowhere to go, and not enough time in a 3 month grow to break down and be accessible to the plants. Worse than that, the buildup of certain elements in the soil can lock out access to other elements and you can easily upset the delicate balancing act that is going on in the soil.

Topdressing is for an emergency fine tuning, or a boost... not for feeding. In organic growing, you actually get out of the role of feeding the plant, and you let the microbes take care of things for you. That, is what you need to give your hungry plants... more microbes. In one watering with a microbial infusion via a product made specifically for that, or a proper actively aerated compost tea, you can bring millions of microfeeding factories into action in your soil, breaking down exactly the raw nutrients that your plants are calling for. The plants don't want you to feed them... they want you to fix the feeding cycle so that they, the microbes and the fungi can do the job better than a human ever could.
Thank You @Emilya . Makes total sense, I had to read that twice! lol..so feed with teas and chill on the top dressing. In a couple of weeks would adding ewc top dress be ok?

In a couple of weeks your plants should be getting all the nutrition they need because you will have immediately starting giving them some URB or Voodoo Juice or Realgrower's Recharge to get millions and millions of microbes and fungi in there... and by that time you will have no need to add anything else... especially something synthetic that may get in the way of the feeding cycle.
Keep in mind as an organic grower that the plants know exactly what they need, and they send signals down to the microbes telling them what sort of food to bring back to them. This natural process works way better than anything humans have devised to artificially feed our plants. If you jump in the way of this natural food circle, you can jet a needed nutrient into the plant just fine, but then the plant does not reward the microlife that would have naturally supplied those nutrients, and with nothing to do, their population will begin to die back. Every time you add something "extra" to a properly functioning organic grow, you affect the feeding cycle in some way.

Awesome, I'm going to buy Voodoo Juice asap. Thank you so much for your time:thanks:
 
I am Glad @Emilya is on the case. She is a true Organic grower and when I am able to grow outside I hope to pick her brain a little. When it comes to Organic growing she is the best member I know of to ask. Always Great answers and replays. Emilya is one of the members that make this site So valuable. With her help I know you will be a success

@Emilya definitely knows her stuff. I went with her suggestion on the real grower recharge instead of the Voodoo Juice. I feel much better as it should be at my door step on Tuesday. I need to read the directions because never used it before.
Anyways, brother thanks for stopping by. You have some pretty plants on your side of the track.
 
What's up 420 family !
I'm pretty pleased with the difference on how my plant looks like now compared to on Tuesday when it was delivered. Perfect timing because she was thirsty added teaspoon/gal of real growers recharge. Gave her the whole gallon.

48 hrs later with the recharge

Kinda, hard to tell with the pics but I'm excited to see the difference just in that short period. I'm going to bump it down to 1/2 teaspoon/gallon. Just once a week, which I usually only water twice a week. So, I guess water one feeding other will be with the recharge.
Hopefully, we will see a big jump in growth this week as well. I'm planning on vegging them at least another week or 2 which would be a 8/9 week veg but my canopy not there yet. So, we shall see. Here's a couple of pics of them today.
Hope everyone is having a great Thursday!:blunt:

My last pic is exciting because I love growing heirloom tomatoes for the spring. Last year was Cherokee Purple.

Thanks brother for the compliment! Just trying to get the ladies right before the flip. They have been transplanted since the 10th of this month. Hopefully, with this recharge they can fill this canopy out within a couple of weeks.
Good seeing you bro:thumb:
 
Your definitely on the right track. Good health before the flip is key to good health overall. Recharge is good stuff too. Do you watch the dude grows show too
Thanks @Dankman_420 . I heard about that show..lol.
Great looking Chernobyl u got. If you ever have some extra beans leftover from your breeding project dont forget about a brother..lol
