Hey Stumped! How are you doing? Unfortunately I have to go soon. But I can tell you thaTt the pot I am using for my girl came from the dollar store. It cost $4.
As for the nutrients I use for veggies, I use the same thing for all my veggies. I use one fertilizer you can get on ebay but I got mine from Morgan County Seeds. It is a blend with an NPK of 4-18-38 I use 12 grams per 5 gallons water and to that I add CaNO4 - Calcium Nitrate NPK 15.5-0-0 at 12 grams per 5 gallons water of that too. And then I add 6 grams per 5 gallons water of Magnesium Sulfate also known as Epsom Salt. This year I have been adding 5 ml of GH CaliMagic per gallon. To stop the blossom end rot I had on some tomatoes last year. I make up 60 gallons worth every other week week. Just did it this morning or yesterday morning. Dang short term memory. They are all dry except the CaliMag. I weigh them and when done with the dry ingredients I put them in my pitcher and add hot water to dissolve it and then I add it to the water in my reservoirs. Then I add the CaliMag. Mix it all up good and do the PH and I'm done. The stuff is cheap and you might be able to find Calcium Nitrate locally. Epsom Salt is at the drug store or grocery store. Just don't get the kind with anything added. The first ingredient has all the micronutrients. The 4-18-38 cost me $12.95 for 5 pounds. The 15.5-0-0 about the same for five pounds. Epsom salt about $6. NPK works out to be 21-18-38 with the 1-0-0 from the CaliMag. It does the trick.Others that are using it for lettuce do 10 grams - 10 grams - 5 grams. Not me, I use the same reservoirs for all except the Kratky boxes of lettuce.

Another long ass day.
U guys got me sold on Hempy. And now that I found cheap perlite and buckets I'm ready to go.
Plants won't be big enough to do 6 hempys this round. And 12 or 16 smaller Hempy buckets is just too much damn work.
Gonna cut clones when I harvest and veg for 6 weeks in 1 gallon hempys. I'm thinking milk jugs cut off lol or a trip to the dollar store lol
Everything is yellow and dead for foliage and on time for harvest. Said I was going to take a pic, room is 6 feet from me right now I'm just too damn tired lol. Also on harvest I'm gonna take pics of each plant. One of them is fuckin huge. Guessing 2-3 zips on that plant alone. I could be wrong .
Also I started quitting smoking cigs. Bought a vaporizer and nicotine juice for it. Not bad, not good but I can see it helping. I smoke 1 to 1.5 packs a day. Today I bought the machine at like 8 am. Haven't had a smoke since. I do mix tubaco with my weed, so not totally off the junk lol. But I'm working on it.
Jim, nice veggie garden. U inspired me to try the same next year when I'm more prepared. Well not the same same lol I mean grow my own veggies. I do agree hydro veggies do taste way better. My thing is I wanna find a cheaper alternative then GH for doing hydro veggies. I'd use a bottle a week. Did you ever research live organic teas?
What do u use for your nft veggies, and others? For nutrients .
Peyton. 2 weeks since flip? Vegged for 7 or 8 weeks right? If thats so then you'll see preflowers like any day, minute, second now.
Looking good though, good thing u built that new cab lol no way that would fit in the old one hahahha.
Not quite sure if she's stretching or still vegging, stretching she would be reaching up words like a inch a day. Its a ticking time bomb lol any day she's gonna show hairs and explode even more then she already is.
Cheers everyone.
Good job Mr. Green Thumb!
