Hey @Bill284
Thanks for your time mate.
Got all sorts of nutes available here, no prob in that department. Just showing a bit of support. .. and I would like to try them out anyway.
run a few different nutes over a period, see what happens.
Peace to ya man

Hey @Bill284
Just seen a post of yours in another thread, referring to this.. that wasn’t very helpful really ..
I use canna at the min.
but I’ve got a ruck of Dutch Pro.
Botanicare
GHE tri part.
Just got some mantis , give that a try.
Bits and bobs of Green Planet.. Advanced Nutrients ,even some Shogun knocking about that I haven’t tried..
I don’t have a big grow on. So don’t need to buy big , mostly ltr bottles.
All the hydro shops on line over here have a big range, and then there’s the interwebby ,and You Know Who.
Not sure what info ya want buddy, but that’s what I’ve got
Peace to ya

Looking good in here bud, the plants are still happy and healthy, that's what really counts.
The autos can be funny that way, one seed plant can flower at a completely different time from another plant that was from the same seed batch. I've read that a lot of it has to do with the roots, once they reach the bottom of container and start circling the pot that's when they switch to flower. Not sure how much science there is to that.

Sorry to hear about all the issues you're still having with the equipment, hope you get it all fixed up.

Love the recipe you made up. There's a section in the forums for edibles and baking I believe, you should post it there as well if you have time. I'm sure loads of people will enjoy it. Looks good and I'm not even a huge lemon fan.

Interested to see you try out all the different nutrients in the near future.

Hey @dick23rk
Thank you for taking the time
Sounds about right, figured it was the bigger pots. Hopefully some bigger buds to boot.
I stopped messing with them once the tezzy turned up. Just gonna let these 3 get on with it from now on.
Power cord for the light should be here Friday. In the meantime I’ve had to put my old light back up.. don’t want to wait too long between harvests ,need the space to get some more beans popped.
I’ll have a look at the recipe section, not so much diary from me, more of a running commentary .
Looking forward to trying out the nutrients myself.. keeps it interesting. And if there’s a noticeable difference between any, it should show up over a few grows with a few strains.
Perhaps a change of medium at some point ?
all sounds great now, while I’ve got too much time on my hands, I have my second covid jab on the 10th may, so I’ll be back to work at some point after. See what I can manage then.
Peace to ya

Ph. 5.7 ***

2ltr of tap water——ppm 205
Ph. 7.6
+. 10ml Mantis. Ppm. 510
Ph. 5.6
Within range for sure, I’d like it @5.8 though.
Are we ok to add a little ph up if needed ..
spot on that though @dick23rk .
If this magic does what it says on the tin,, it won’t be long before everyone’s on it.
If only Just for the ease of it.
I am wondering, if you’ll still be adding bud boosters etc during flowering matey.
cheers for the time chaps, appreciated.
tempting just to drop everything and get straight on it..
but I’ll stick to what I said I’ll do, an here we go

Seeds in little baggies with a diluted 3% h202.
Been in since last night. So will be in first home later.
Blackberry moonrocks and do-so-dos autos. Unfortunately not from a sponsor.
Peace an buds perps

@Bud love that seems a lot better! You may not get to 5.8 upon mixing, but the ph buffers in the mix will keep the medium at the proper ph level needed. As the plant feeds, your ph in the medium will actually swing and rise some. The buffers will keep the medium between 5.2 and 6.2 the whole time and the plant will only take up what it needs, it shouldn't overfeed. No worries at 5.6 and 5.7, I've tested my dwc at 5.4 a few times and no issues.

I don't plan on using any additives at all with mantis unless I see it's absolutely needed. I plan to try and make it to harvest with just mantis and my calmag supplement since I use RO water. This 1 bottle is supposed to have everything the plant needs without adding anything extra.

Best of luck, can't wait to see you rock this.

Little catch up on the Diesel Ladies.
Diesel 1 Day 42
A little bit of N toxicity going on with the bottom few leaves( I think)
I’ve switched to bloom feeds on a low dose, trying to knock out a bit of N.
Otherwise, what I’m thinking is that the nuts I’m using don’t require me to feed so often. It’s only on the bottom leaves at the min.

no more tezzys so far. Soz about s*** pic below, old light back on for now.
You can see the claw and you’ll have to take it from me that the leaves are dark glossy green.

Hope everyone well an dandy
Peace to ya

Diesel 2
I haven’t done any thing to this lady, other than snip a couple of leaves every other day or so. She’s starting to stretch her neck and she looks good to me.

Got some tip burn on some leaves but not too worried(yet) this girl in bokashi and frass as close to @Bill284 recipe as I can muster over here.

Thanks Bill she’s looking eager to bust out.

Diesel 3 day 28
Well. This girl was out the blocks pretty fast compared to the others.
I cut a couple of nodes off on the bottom 2 branches early on, and I’ve tied the main stem down, and that’s it.. again in close to Bill284’s mix.
She’d be twice as tall as diesel 2 if I’d let her grow straight up. She seems to have loads

more space between the nodes and what’s growing is all pretty level at the top of the canopy without interference from me.. mmm,
is the space between the nodes more of a sativa characteristic comin through?
any info or advise as ever , thank you
Peace an buds

Is that lady bursting at the seems or do my eyes deceiveme. Great job.
I Love burnt tips means you are giving her as much as she can possibly take.
I see you have a pot with nothing in it yet. If you have B and F&D in it make sure you water it. Get all the microbes going ahead of time.
I mix a 200L tub at a time and let it sit for a week to 3 ahead of time.
Thats an awesome garden.

She seems to have longer thinner leaves. Sativa pheno.
She is beautiful and flat looks amazing.

Good news —- light power cable arrived..yey!
Bad news——-one of the controller cables not right.
So I can have the light on but going to wait as it’s a bit scorchy on full
Can take better pics though, once she’s on.
Got some more new gear in today, see if I can tidy up a bit in here. Give myself a couple more options.
got one of your sponsors mini grow tents, turned up sharpish, and it’s certainly better packaged , than the last 2 I gat.
So big up to the peeps at gorilla tents.
I’ll get my arse into gear this weekend, switch things around a bit..
Thanks for all your efforts and time people
Lovin it

Old light

new light

somewhat brighter, I have to put protective glasses on with the old light
Peace an buds peeps

 

[dick23rk]

Looking great over here bud, all the plants look happy and fed well. Bill is right, you got the feeding right at the max and not too much, you found the sweet spot.

That new light looks like it will be a much better spectrum for the ladies. They will love you for it. Keep up the good work in here, you're advancing every time I stop by.
