My new grow space

[Guy Cavallero]

They are looking good, Guy.

Thank God Ian, I think I might have turned the corner here.....

Damaged leaves will never be able to repair themselves as the cell structure is non repairable. What you need to look for is new growth that looks normal (lush & green) and that damage doesn't get any worst. So it sounds like you pulled it thru with flying colors. Congrats and good job

100%, I think the key to this time was noticing early and paying attention to it. For some reason in the past, I seemed to have thought, "It's a plant, it'll take care of itself ", LOL. Followed by stress and a poor haul. I'm glad I'm getting some of my Growing Pains out of the way before I go to larger scale in the new year.

In hydro, the speed is increased. I noticed a very mild discoloration in the morning, added cal-mag at noon but the damage was done. By nightfall, it was starting to be really evident. I fought with that deficiency & nute balance for 2 weeks.

Eeeek.... see that's what scares me about Hydro. Sorry, I'm unfamiliar but is that your first go-around with Hydro? I might try a trial of the single pale dwc to see how I like it, cuz I have seen amazing results on The Forum using them. But for the new year, the proof is in the pudding..... I will be using Van stank's soil recipe in 5 to 7 gallon pots.

 

[Ian Bastage]

Yes, my first. I am still learning & making mistakes but thankfully the plants are very resilient.

Maybe try coco in a pail or 2. That will give you a hydro look without going full tub hydro. I love coco and the way it responds like hydro. If you notice something you can take care of it right away. With soil you need to flush and wait for it to dry back out to hopefully start back down the right road. I know the next day

Shopgrow has always had great success using the coco and tried to persuade me to go that route on more than one occasion. Maybe it might be worth an experiment next year to try a couple of different methods side by side under the same light... For now, I'm going to follow another great friends advice and get some bud in jars.

I have to keep that in mind..... Because I want to try so many different things. I have to stockpile first, I have to stockpile first....... X 7 LMAO.

One of the biggest reasons that I am not ordering internationally is because of Bitcoin. I tried setting up coinbase on three different occasions and it said it was going to send charges to my girlfriend's Visa. It did, and then they never remove them all three times. I got pissed off at that, and called Visa. Although the charges were minimal, it was something on coinbases website that said would happen that didn't, so it put me off.

I agree, Seedsman definitely does have the best freebies.....and are a sponsor. Although, I did pick up some pretty sick seeds from True North as well. I wonder if seedsman does e-transfers, if so it'll be worth another look.

I do believe that seedsman does do the bank transfers as well. I just couldn't figure it out and tried the bitcoin and got rolling with that.

Hey Guy and guys. Got a new journal on the go; just a continuation of my previous. Got it right here Flytier's Quasi-Aquaponic Salmon-Based Organic Autoflowering Perpetual SPoG® SoG . See ya on the other side.

-a little update-

Day 48, day 21 of flower.

The help of some friends and members, I seemed to have pulled my two Snow White Autos through. The calcium and or pH problem that I was having has been solved by foliar sprays using calcium nitrate and water pH'd to 7.0, also, I have been adding dolomitic lime to the soil as I watered with the same 7.0 pH water. Normally I water with my pH in around 6.5 or 6.6, but because I was having what I thought was a calcium problem, the pH was raised in my soil due to my runoff values. Raising my pH level up a little bit, is where calcium and magnesium is taken into the root system more efficiently..... Or so is my understanding. Also none of the damaged leaves have been fixed, the progression of spots on my leaves has stopped.

and my Kings Kush CBD plant which seems to be just plodding along nicely in the background.

Sorry for my absence guy

Glad to hear you got her under control bud .

It's all good my friend.

Got a little journal update as we speak.

Got my door in to the grow room, that means only a few things left to do before I can start moving in the equipment. Bought used at a consignment shop, hard to find a 24 inch door that's solid wood like that. Fits perfectly, just a little bit of adjustment to the header.

Speaking of equipment, bought a used 6 inch fan off a guy this weekend while I was there he hooked me up with a vertical hanging 150 watt HPS and ballast, as well as a cool tube for it. He also gave me a full instruction manual and it's 110 which is a bonus. Also gave me all of his leftover nutrients from when he was growing.

also wanted to make sure that I showed the few pictures of the Bud's stocking up on the Snow White's now that I have the calcium or pH problem under control.

Not to get too far ahead of myself either, but here are the two seedlings just showing up for the very first time on December 1st LOL. These are both Crown Royal seedlings., the two white cookies have yet to make an appearance.

Last but certainly not least, I placed an order two days ago and the seeds arrived today. Got a bit of a mix, going to try some new stuff next year. My maiden voyage is of course with my good friends ATF seeds that just arrived in the mail.

.

That's it for tonight, going to see a tragically hip tribute benefit concert tonight to benefit brain research.

Have a great night all.

Nice have fun bud

That looks like an awesome variety of seeds Guy! I haven't forgot about getting you the name of that mix (dirt) at the shop in Barrie. I just haven't been... Might stop in tomorrow though so if I do, I'll send you the info. The door looks nice and solid! You must be getting pretty stoked to setup the final touches and make the move!!

 

[Rider509]

Guy, you need to bleach EVERYTHING you brought in from that other grower. Just like in the medical field you need to use Universal Precautions and treat everything like it's loaded with spider mites, thripes, snipes, seabass, springtails, nematodes, powdery mildew, and... aliens. Seriously. I even spray down the CO2 bottles I exchange because who knows what environment or scurvy dog grow room they may have been in before. Those dirty ass bottles are an indicator of the care, or lack thereof, that grower gave his grow space.

Hey Peeece! You get the flies yet?

Hey Flytier! I did!! I sent you a msg... I only use my phone but for some reason every time I use the message portion it shuts the app down... I used my PC and it took me forever to figure out how to get to the msg section... I was wondering if u rec'd it...apparently not. Sorry dude! They look awesome! I sent my buddy up in Chapleau a pic and he is very jealous, needless to say he is insisting I bring them up on our early spring fishing trip!! ..

Right on! It's always good to use the barter system for stuff like this. I'm very glad you're pleased. You and Guy can compare catches using them. If you need more you know where to find me.

Looking good Guy. I'll have a smaĺl plant ready
