The Aloe boost ratio should have read 15ml/10litres. I’m not real good first thing in the morning.

the roots will recover as you poke and prod, but less destructive is the lift the pot method.... compare your pot to a similar container filled with dry soil. If you can feel a difference, it is NOT yet time to water.Ok cheers Emilya. You are worth your weight in gold on this site and there should be more of you as if it wasn’t for you I would be still waiting here for some help on a few questions I asked, in the meantime my plants are suffering or dying. I only did this Journal as I was encouraged to by several members. Anyways enough of the sob story, youhave cleared that headache up for me.
Is it safe for the poor little roots to have my moisture meter plunging into the soil all the time to check the moisture at the bottom of the pot as I have no other real way of telling. Just so paranoid with overwatering.
The 6 pot setup I have with drainage and irrigation attached to the pots, that method is a big hard. But I have used that method in the previous two grows using fabric pots.the roots will recover as you poke and prod, but less destructive is the lift the pot method.... compare your pot to a similar container filled with dry soil.

I wouldnt hold off... get some active microbes in there as soon as you can. Remember you are not feeding the plant with a tea, you are supplying active microbes that happen to be feeding on the inputs you put into the tea, exactly the nutrients the plants need right now. These specialized microbes will leap into action as soon as they find the roots.One I the Bruce Banners is getting nice plump Indica leaves happening after a recent water with some Aloe Boost.
Day 28
They all looked a bit droopy yesterday but have bounced back today. Still trying to get this watering down pat.
The two Bruce Banners are doing well and starting to show a bit of vigorous growth.
This poor little Skywalker OG is a bit of a runt, not sure why. Was thinking of giving a AACT when these pots dry out as 4 of the plants are close to veg stage I think except for the Skywalker. Should I hold back another week for their first tea @Emilya?
Thanks Emilya. I know I have to get out of this mindset of “feeding the plants”. I am a slow learner but I’m slowly adapting to this form of growing and loving it.I wouldnt hold off... get some active microbes in there as soon as you can.

BTW, as soon as my plants establish in the container (1st true leaves), seedling stage has ended and veg has begun.
Sorry gutless was supposed to be guys but u probably worked that out. Clorox must be a brand over there in the States? Don’t think I’ve seen it here in Australia. Anyways I will give it a hit with bleach this arvo when I get home from work.I like to think that bleach is sort of magical. Clorox sure thinks so with their magic eraser cleaning product.
