New Moon Over Guawi: A High Brix Journey

[Killerbudz]

Because Amy reminded me

I should mention the Upcoming Full Moon is on the 27th of July and to be more exact
in my area its July 27, 01:20 pm (PDT)

This is Working out perfectly since I Dropped on the NEW MOON (12/13 July)
and I am now sitting at Day 6 Seedling stage we should be at the beginning of
VEG Stage on the 27ths Full Moon

They have been slowly getting a stronger Lunar pull each day which will be the
strongest on the 27th . Since this is the very start of there life its my intention to
give them every advantage I can

I now need to time the Transplant around this, Feedings would be nice to
hit on Full Moon as well

Some interesting Info I get each month

Full Thunder Moon - July 2018

One of the more common names for this month’s Full Moon is the Thunder Moon, a tribute from the Algonquin to a time of year when spectacular electrical storms rake the northern forests. The Chinese deserve credit for an equally ominous name. The moon coincides with the Hungry Ghost Festival, a time when the living honor the dead by leaving food and drink to the ancestors. Their name? The Moon of the Hungry Ghosts. In medieval England, the moon had a more cheerful connotation. Crops were nearing harvest and if the fields were tall and healthy, the farmers went out to celebrate with their favorite drink, a fermented mixture of honey, malt, yeast and water (an acquired taste). Today farmers might call it The Beer Moon, but back then the growers knew it as the Mead Moon.

So if you put stock into the full moon do you believe in horoscopes or astrology signs?

Welcome and good morning buddy

excuse the random posts I tend to jump around.

I just realized I never discused the STARTER POTS
Using 1 gal ROUND & SQUARE Root Starter/Builder Dunking Pots

Checking my Photo Gallery I see I have pictures of the DEVO POT
Will get some picture documentation of the Square on later today
along with some EXPECTED time to DRY guesses using them

Good morning Buddy

No not a believer in either. But I do believe even a minimal advantage is an Advantage.

LUNAR Phase affects the oceans and will help pull up water/nutrients to the surface and
into plants, although very minimal its happening so
since the process is as simple as starting on a NEW MOON I will give them an edge.

Also took the time to get the seed orientated pointed end up as another advantage.
I should really make a list of the little things that can be done to give an advantage to the plant

EDIT: Even more on the SNAKE OIL side of things, Magnetize the water.

Below is some INTERNET Information. NOT sure how accurate it is. Process is simple just
put magnets on water hose

Although all water consists of the same basic H20 molecules, water nevertheless varies according to how these molecules bond together to form "water molecule groups." To put it simply, it is in the size of these groupings that water differs.

The smaller the groupings, the more bioavailable the water is -- the more easily it is able to pass through cell walls, to transport nutrients and remove waste, to facilitate all of the the communications systems in your body, and to pass through your body as a whole. The larger the groupings the more inefficient water is at performing these same functions.

Magnetizing your drinking water breaks its surface tension, making it wetter and more useable by every cell in your body. In addition, there's a strong secondary benefit. Applying a magnetic field to water can not only make it wetter, but it can also raise its pH (up to a full point, depending on the water).

You are definitely trying to get every edge you can, some I've never heard of lol. I tend to not believe in horoscopes but I'll be damned if some aren't spot on.

Thats for sure, the quest for the PERFECT GROW

As long as its cheap & easy I'm all in

Not a horoscope guy but do believe in KARMA = Cause and Effect, You reap what you sow

and

Positive Energy
is Attracted to
Positive Energy

 

[Gazoo]

Not sure if its clear why I HAVE the BLUE SPECTRUM T5s coming on in the sequence like I do

Sun-Rise = 660 red THEN BLUE on
Sun-Set = 730 Red then BLUE off

Sunrises and sunsets are always against a background of Blue fading in or fading out.

EDIT:

Oh and Sun-Set is A Deeper Red (730nm) than Sun-Rise (660nm)

Just did a quick internet search sounds interesting

BTW

Did you know holding your RF Car unlocking device close to your HEAD/Ear increases the range.

Yes it works just the other day needed to check if I locked the van while walking into church so started walking BACK
while clicking the button and waiting to hear the horn to let me know its locked.
Stopped and held up by my Head/Ear pushed button and
yup horn sounded.

I've actually known that for years Gazoo... IDK how I figured it out but I put it to my chin and it increases the distance quite a bit! Pretty crazy eh, like the small neurons firing gives it more juice. I showed a buddy of mine at the time... he was blown away.

I must of read it on line, I cant remember were I heard it either but I think it had something
to do with our brains and water ?

 

[Gazoo]

Nice Lead in

Speaking of Water I was just checking on the pots and noticed they were getting LIGHT All ready ?
went ahead and dribbled 1 to 1.5 oz clear H2O around top of soil to help keep the roots growing in all directions.

Interesting the last time it took over 2 weeks to dry out after initial seed germination Dunk.
Looking like I will need to Dunk again soon. And now that I think about that I have a Question

Previously I have only used STRAIGHT H2O for the initial Seed Germination Dunk BUT
I have been told its now recommended to use 1/4 trans. If that's the case should I use
it this time ?

Not sure since I know the soil is alive and active. Remember I turned the 1st run soil and then
noticed the temps went up by approx 20 deg. that tells me its still alive and active so not sure
if I should add the Trans ?

 

[Gazoo]

Cant wait to see how the Roots look at transplant

//////////////////////////////////////////​

As promised here are the photo's of the 1 gal Square RootMaker Pro starter pot

Both the Round and the Square 1 gal starters look
to be 25% smaller than what I used last time (must of been 1.25)
Anyway it took 18 days to dry out last time from 1st dunk.

Fast Math @ 25% less.
18 days div by 4 is 4.5 days or 25% less.
With everything being equal that's 13.5 days to dry
but wait there are way more Holes in the sides to
allow faster drying so say another 5 to 10% faster dry
or 12 to 13 day by my new estimate

Its been 10 days since dunk now and the pots are
feeling light SO all seems to be on track for a 12 day
dry-out

USING BOTH of these STYLES
This Run
1 Round & 1 Square
Each 1 gal size​

Watched a youtube video on the root builder pots. He is talking tree's but it all makes sense.

Dont think I have watched there youtube stuff I can only assume they are going to be
great for Dunking and allowing for a faster process and better water distribution

Also the round Ones fit the Orchard 1.5 / 2 gal bucket just about perfect which helps
for less waste when mixing up the magic

EDIT: MY Bad these are actually RootMaker Pro Pots
I also edited the picture post above to correct the name mistake

 

[Killerbudz]

Think there will be too much drainage with those pots?

I don't expect so, The ones doc uses have a lot of holes also but Not as many. I used something similar last run
were I drilled a bunch of holes and it work fine these holes are smaller in opening so don't expect any problems
but I guess i'll find out soon enough

When I did the initial Dunk I did not notice any problems

 

[Gazoo]

Just remembered I have pictures of the Pot I used with home made
holes from last run No Drainage Issues

It worked very well, Roots were OK at transplant (more would be better)
but I wanted to get them under the SCROG NET

That was early by doc's recommendation of transplant & flip

OBSERVATION​

While Checking the pot weight I found the SQUARE 1 GAL starter is nearly Dry, Probably will need a DUNK Tomorrow
This is interesting because its on the cooler side of tent (right side always a few degrees cooler ?)

Anyway this is going to be a pain because the ROUND feels like it has at least 3 or more days left .

FUTURE NOTE to self
Don't use different Pots or I may run into this problem again

EDIT:
OH BTW this was DAY 7 from POP at lights on.

Will be posting pictures in the morning. Also notice they are now starting to pick up
speed (new set of leafs in 2 days) so at that rate 3 more sets in another 6 days should
have them out of SEEDLING Stage and moved into Veg. at just under 2 weeks from Pop.

 

[Buckshot317]

Looking good Gazoo. It can be a pain using multiple pots. Damn things all dry out different times lol.

Hope everyone had a great Monday
