Re: Icemud Goes LED: Featuring Top LED Grow: Cherry Pie - GSC - OGiesel - SFV OG - UV
Hey everyone, quick update. Didn't take any photo's tonight since not much has changed over the past few days besides the screen slowly filling up. I would say I only have about 10% of the screen full at this time so there will at least be another 2 weeks of veg, possibly 3 before flipping over to flowering.
Today I gave the girls a preventative foliar spray for pests, even though I don't see any signs of them and my plants are looking rather healthy, its better to be safe than sorry and I figure since its still vegging, what can it hurt. I gave them a spray of a organic product called end all which I only had enough left to spritz the tops of the leafs with a very fine mist so I followed up with my SNS Mite spray and hit the rest of the plants and the undersides of the leaves as well. I haven't seen anything like I mentioned but would rather prevent any pests from even wanting to mess with my plants.
Other than that, daily I have been taking any branches which poke through the screen and redirecting them horizontally to create the auxillary branches to shoot upward to produce tops for the scrog. The soil is fairly dry but I am going to hold off watering until I see slight sagging leaves and then I will feed them because I really want the roots to dig into the new soil and develop a solid root base before flowering.
I ordered myself some new products in which I will be using this grow and also future grows if I like them. Since many have had good luck with the T and J Enterprises Tea, I decided to pick some up as well as yucca extract since they seem to be the only supplier I could find online that didn't add preservatives. I also picked up some 50ppm Collidal silver in which I plan on forcing my other OGiesel to create male pollen and I want to collect it and use it in the near future to fertilize some plants, creating feminized seeds and even possibly crossing some to see what happens. I figured picking up the Colloidal silver pre-made was cheap since I would have to buy silver, battery, electodes and wires if I wanted to do it myself, the cost was cheeper to get it made already. I also picked up 2 colbalt spray containers made of glass so that I can pour little amounts into the sprayers, and the cobalt glass will keep light from destroying the product. I eventually want to make feminized seeds of all the plants I have going now, so I can keep the genetics without the room needed to keep mothers. This will allow me more space to possibly breed my own strains and experiment with others.
As far as my seeds, only the 3 that were put into soil had cracked, the other 5 even after a week and constant spraying and keeping the towels moist, the others did not crack. As for the seeds put into the soil, all of them are still growing and one has poked through the soil showing the green leafs, the others I imagine any day should also be doing the same.
I will take some photo's most likely tomorrow that show the progress in the scrog tent.
