McLoadie's Third Grow Journal

What witch's brew are you making?

This is one part of a reciprocal program, you gotta provide for these girls.........especially when you push em. I alternate feedings between veg nutrients and flower nutrients. The flower nutrients will promote flowering, and the veg nutrients will support the buds and plant as it grows....they are pregnant and they're eating for two now and need the extra nutrition. I guess it's not classified as a tea, and then again maybe it could be, I just know I gotta scare up a twenty and get more......they get each nutrient every other feeding....you dig me?
 
Hey mcl, when mixing up teas and such, are you (in your head) trying to stay along a line of NPK ratio, such as maybe for veg ex. 2-1-3?
Or maybe you are just shooting from keen instincts? :) For a first timer i'm making this brewing thing harder than it needs to be LOL.

Not really ca, and then yes...LOL. I try to use the teas to apply mainly micronutrients, mychorizae, and food to feed them. I have heard say that once the mychos are in the soil that it's foolish to add more.........but I think more is better...and all my dr earth nutrients are loaded with them. I heard this from a figure who is supposedly an expert on this.......maybe more of an expert than millo shammas, owner of dr earth. It's all a political shit fest and if you look at folks motives it's easier to decipher the mess! I like to use a balanced nutrient for veg......hopefully no higher than 5-5-5, and then the bloom nutrients are so varied. You can make tea out of many different things....like soup, if you put everything in it you like...it will be good!

Just brew up your tea and if you think it's too concentrated...dilute it!
 
Thank you for those kind words and reps mcloadie. Could not have done it without the family here.

I hope you can take and learn from me and vice versa.

The tea ahghghghg. dont even get me started on the teas. hahaha


have a good one my friend.
 
Good weed everyone, thank you for all your positivity..............my garden reflects my attitude...and the atmosphere helps my attitude! Everythings good this morning, I watered the plants in flower with the solution previously mentioned. The smaller plant in flower drains a little when I apply 7 cups of solution, the bigger one doesn't. I started pre watering today....it makes sense! I applied 3 cups of solution, waited about 15 minutes and applied 4 more. The cuts......I've been getting a reaction when I water them, they take a turkey baster a day.....of tap water. After around 15 minutes they wilt, or the tops turn sideways and get real floppy, they stay that way for around 3 hours...then recover and look great. So I picked up some r/o water and we'll see if they react the same way. It gets up to 90 degrees under the t5 and I've been running it like this; it has 8 bulbs...all 6500k's, when it's hot as hell in there I run the four bulbs on the outside, the plants are positioned close together under the middle bulbs, and when it's cool enough I shut the outside ones off and run the four inside ones that are directly over the plants. This method lowers the temp around 5 degrees when the outside bulbs are on. I have 3 plants under the wally light, and I have been flashing them......running the light quite erratically......two days darkness....on for a day.....whatever, to try to force hermies....nothing yet after 2 weeks.

Good weed fishpa! NO reaction from the cuts yet......I finally may be on to something different....it's about time......I need to bump this shit up a notch! So, if these cuts don't react, I'm switching everything over to R/o and I'll have to spend a few months figuring out what I can do with it............I KNOW I will have to change some things..........hopefully I don't screw up too bad figuring it out!
 
Good Weed Mac, glad to hear your garden is propagating, my two plants are really stinking. Especially when you come from out side back in! Mac left pm

Yeah, that's when you notice it the most....they also kick out some stinky at lights on and lights off..........mostly lights off! try pm again, I checked it but there was no new text!

You got yesterday's Sativa's preparedness right? Well I never got a response so didn't know what to think, but today's response to you is there!
