That's a lot of sodium (salt) Cruizer. Coconut water is more expensive than spring water. No Nitrogen, is there?

No Nitrogen, but my soil is mixed with composted manure and it has Nitrogen, I read this post from a 420 member Icemud, he says:
"Coconut water/milk...I have been adding this to my nutrient feedings, about 1 oz of coconut water for 2 gallons of distilled water. The ppm of coconut water was higher than 2000ppm so thats why I dilluted it so much....I found out coconut water has tons of macro and micronutrients in it, especially potassium. It also houses lots of cytokins (growth hormones for plants) and has a lot of plant sugars (fructose) which from what I have read does not need to be broken down before the plants can use it....

I have a small plant on day 10 of flower that i don't know if its a female yet so I might try it.
 
Would've been my entry...

Mine is just about getting it's second pair of serrated leaves. not sure if it's because my pot is so tiny or just a slow seed; it sprouted early (three days from dry seed in a pot to cotyledons) but then it just stopped moving. I gave it a full nute feed (even though it was still too small) and it appears to have moved a few millimetres.

Same thing happened to me. I waited a few more days and nothing so i pulled it out of the soil and there was no roots at all. Crazy! So that's why i need another week. I got some nice tap roots in soil now and they looked white! :bong:
 
Yo mars, can I see your cloner thingie? Noob here. You've got outstanding rooting on your clones and I want to know how your cloner is helping you. I took six cuttings eleven days ago from different moms and put them in a DIY bubble cloner with a huge air stone in it making the water as close to fully saturated with oxygen as I can imagine it can be. But no roots. Extremely healthy cuttings, still perky, with leaves poiting upwards and all with healthy green color, but no roots. Yesterday I found out why they are healthy and perhaps why they still have not grown any roots. They all had small leaves, minature shoots, that were submitted under water and because it was so well airated those leaves (probably) sucked up water enough for the whole cutting to thrive and there has been no real reason for the cuttings to produce roots. They got what they need from those submitted leaves. I cut those off yesterday and added a tiny amount of nutrients to the reservoir and today I still have healthy cuttings with stems that look like they will grow roots any second now. Live and learn.

there's a small but real chance that my tiny being could end up getting inadvertently sprayed with colloidal silver once i move it on the 14th. Would balls void me? lol

Yes stumped they are the same clones, i figured starting early should be fine. If anyone has objections to me starting flower early I won't use the 2 I put in dirt. Daddymac_ I can't get a pic of my whole cloner until its empty, but a few tips......use a good rooting hormone like clonex or root tech, use clonex seed and clone nutrient, the best thing I've found is to put your sprayer on a timer 15 minutes on 15 minutes off, also i put whole clone machine in a rubbermaid container to keep temp and humidity up. Make sure to use sterile tools when cutting, and wash your hands.......
 
standing here with my meat in my hand.no clones yet.

I think my power outage may have been to much,having a 20kw generator installed next week.trencher is here this morning to start putting in the gas lines.

Nice, backup is always good option to have! I just put natural gas out to a shop, unfortunately I was the trencher. 165 feet through 6 inches of packed gravel and 12 inches of river rock below that, my pressure test failed though so im replumbing everything today in the heater. Next year I'm hoping for solar!

Yea man its not up to everyone though. Its the rules and whole basis on the challenge. If anything we were about to extend times for seed people.
Really hate to say this but unless you pick another clone (shouldn't be a problem u got tons) we can't accept that in the challenge.

Cheers bro. Hope ya understand.

+reps for info on cloning.
