Gave a brix spray today a few mins after lights on at a dose of 5mil brix to 5oz of RO. Foliars are something I will definitely need to get better at, I know its supposed to be a light misting on the underside, but I'm neurotic and don't want to miss a leaf and end up spraying too much...
Planning on giving a straight water dunk tomorrow or next day, pots were lighter than I expected and I dribbled a little water on top to hold them over. Don't see much wrong with the plants but they could be better, purple stems on one and a little leaf tacoing. So open to suggestions.
Definitely going to attribute the tacoing to heat, it's been hitting 91 with not much distance between light and canopy.
Just gave the plants the once over, the purple is all over but doesn't seem severe. Just trying to stay observant and make sure these meds are top shelf, cheers.
. Soil is new for me so maybe should have let the pots dry out more.
They stay like that pretty much most of the day. Good idea on a pot filled with just soil. Swear those things were bone dry when I dunked, but soil seemed very compacted and not much bubbling. You ever had any plants that were sensitive to too much water?
Hey there KB, yes sir I sure have had plants sensitive to water. When In soil you have to think of it this way... you want those roots to search out water, so if they are always moist or wet the roots aren’t going to develop properly in soil. But as the pot dries out, the roots begin to go searching for water. That’s what you want in soil, so that why I suggested the pot with soil idea. Gives you a good idea when to water em. You’ll get it down, a lot of peeps overwater when moving to soil or if they are new to growing in general. You’ve grown before, but this is your first in soil right? So you just need to adjust your thinking a bit. It really can get a little boring sometimes, just not as much to do when using Docs kit. At any rate your ladies still look great, I have no doubt you’ll have a great harvest.
With the De-Stress I believe you can spray that like 3-4 days after Brix or leaf wash. But lead wash and Brix have to be at least 7-10 days apart. So if they look stressed I’m sure it won’t hurt. I’d theu are still droopy and you’re concerned... you could go to Docs Q&A and post a question to doc there. Either he, or another well experienced brixer will be along shortly! That can give way better advice on the condition of your plants.
Thanks for the dosage, saves me from having to convert ounces to mil and figuring out from there lol
