Spend some time going over the new additions to the MC line if you haven't already.

Checked out the New MC. They just changed the NPK & Cal Mag amounts is all. Nothing about it being better for DWC / Hydro. The BE & SC isn't available til June 20th so I'll wait for that to be in stock before I buy 500 grams of each & 1000 grams of the new MC. They will probably be started with the ver. 3 though. Use it for Veg Then use the new stuff when I start to flower.

Been over a week since I last updated the grow so here we go. The Afghan Kush is still at 5 grams per gallon. Every time I increase even a little I get burnt tips so she can stay at 5. The Gorilla Glue is still at 4.5 grams & not asking for more either. Buds are getting really big now.
I think this Afghan may have some Skunk in it. Check out the one Bud that has a stripe down it's back .... LOL. Might be mixed with a Barrel Cactus also from the pic of one of the Colas. I swear, some of these colas are almost as big around as a coke can. Sorry if I seem excited .... I am. It's a 1st for me getting anything even close to this. Too F'n Kool !!!
This is the Afghan ....

Get you a small A/C. .

There is no way in hell I could even grow without an A/C. This changes nothing. I saw no benefits worth the worry. I’ve bud washed plenty. I don’t see commercial growers throwing their freshly harvested bud into a swimming pool so I will hold out.

I just got a 22lb bag delivered of the new stuff. Unless they didn’t have new bags printed I couldn’t find a difference in the numbers in the label. I won’t open for another month. They were also supposed to grind up the balls even more. We will see.

The last bag I bought had the wrong info too. They told me they were just using up the bags they still had in stock to package it.

Well you guys, I'm getting impatient waiting to star my next grow. So .... I'm going to get the tent all set up this weekend for the 2 DWC Buckets & get rolling with 2 Auto Flower Plants. I'm not a fan of Auto's so want to use up the seeds I have. I have "Six Shooter, Northern Lights, AK 47 & Critical 2.0 Auto Seeds. The Critical 2.0 finished the fastest last time I grew it so I'm leaning toward it. N.L. took forever to finish. AK & 6 Shooter were about average time. I'm thinking the Critical 2.0 so they can finish & I can move my next batch of seedlings in there faster.
See ya soon with the start of a new journal.

That's fine brother. It's all personal preference.

Under the feeding calculator you will see they have MC 1-part, MC 2-part(Injector) and MC 2-part(Single Tank) You are correct though in that it's not listed. I'm assuming they are getting ready for the launch of the others in the near future.

[Oz3]

why are the labels always scratched out on the ph perfect nutrients? people say theyre out dated but i havent had any problems so far with them.

And here's some pics of Gorilla Glue.

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean. If you meant what are they getting ready to launch then I was referring to the new MC lineup, MC 2-part(Injector) and MC 2-part(Single Tank).

MC = Mega Crop (All Purpose Plant Food) Nutrient.

 

[Buds Buddy]

OK ya'all. I was thinking about using Baking Soda & Lemon Juice in place of pH up & down on my next grow. Would you recommend this or should I stay with the bottled stuff ?
I've never used anything but the bottled stuff so far so was kind of wondering what it's like to use the other stuff.

 

[Buds Buddy]

Well the little Propagation tent is all set up & ready to go ... I think. Waiting to see if I set the timers right on the lights. Fan & Filter wont be here till next week but don't need it yet anyway. Hydro Guard hasn't came in yet either. Should get it all this week so I'm good to get started with the Root Riot Plugs for now. I'll start a journal on that next week.
Well this morning I woke up about 2:30 & for some reason something kept telling me to check on my plants. So I did. The Gorilla Glue had 2 branches bent over & within 2" of touching the floor.
So I spent the next hour supporting all the branches because she still has a way to go.
Her pistils are only 20 - 25% Amber & the Triches are only 10%.
The Afghan is almost where I want her at 35 - 40% Amber so far. She'll be going in the dark in a few days.
That's my update for now. "Party On"

Outta control man! I fucking love it. I like how them buds just make one huge cola like that. I know that trick. Nice!!!

Am I good then?

 

[Buds Buddy]

I checked the Triches on the Afghan Kush today & I can say she's ready for her dark period. When lights go out tomorrow she will get put in the cold closet for her 36 hours prior to harvest. This is the plant I'm excited about. Can't wait to get a weight & sample on this girl. She's at 50% amber so she aught to be pretty darn good.

Damned ... I smell funny or piss everyone off ? Maybe they just consider this grow finished. Yeah, these journals get real boring at the end waiting for Harvest results. Oh well, It's been a fun ride & I had lots of great people tag along so it's all good.
Planning to start my New Journal tomorrow so I'll probably just post my final results from this grow here & concentrate on my New Grow / Journal.
"Buds Buddy does DWC / Critical 2.0 for the 1st Time."
