The Flower Shower Of Buds - LED - Soil - General Organics

I needed a little more room with six plants. So i moved the veg cabinet to a doublewide under the bathroom sink lol. Movin on up. I also up potted 3 ghost train haze, 2 Tutankhamon, 1 Jack Herer, and a partridge in a pear tree . Whatever that is lol. The growth seems pretty good. I added some great white in All the holes befor transplanting. I was going to do half with gw and half without gw, but alas I was high. I was gonna put great white, but i got high. They would have grown alot, but i got high. Now im all messed up, and I know why. Cause i got high, cause i got high, cause i got high.

Could tell with that line up Danny Bonaduce would be sniffing around somewhere.... Didn't know he'd be hiding in a pear tree, lol...

The smell is like a sour chemical/fuel. Hard to describe but very nice.

Good morning

The Lowrider bud is nice and dry. Im not going to smoke any until 3-4 weeks of curing. I am happily surprised at how much more potent the huckleberry and goldmine have gotten with a 3 week cure.

Im thinking of getting a bottle of silica. Amazon: Dyna-Gro Pro-tekt Tek-032 0-0-3 Silicon Supplement, 1-Quart, Ive heard it has many benifits to plant growth. Any thoughts?

For my Chem grow I am using agsil silica. It's powdered and I weigh and dissolve it. It's 12 bucks shipped for a whole pound of it from mbferts. I use 0.5g per gallon so it comes out to a super bargain compared to the dissolved versions! Raises pH quite a bit so I add pH down to get to my 5.8 target.

Edit for additional info: a pound is 453gm so I should be able to amend 900 gallons of nutrient for the price of 12 dollars!

 

[Nicholas Flamel]

Thanks for the info shiggs. I will check it out. Ive read about the silica raising the ph. After further thought im not sure i need silica in soil but im not sure on that.

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Mine are in peat and perlite. It's only a few mls of pH down I need to use and before adding silica I was using a few mls of pH up. I must say I have not had a branch break or crack from training since using it and the drought tolerance is notably higher. Sometimes I have picked up a plant to water it and it is so light I can't believe it's not wilting! Highly recommended.

Do you think silica would be good for outdoor plants? Or does mother nature privide enough.

 

[ShiggityFlip]

Plenty in real soil so no need there.

 

[Nicholas Flamel]

I know stage used silica with his POTY Bubblegum and it worked for him.

 

[GrizzWald]

I usually put a handful of sand around the base of my outdoor girls.. I didn't this year. I've been dealing with breaking limbs, not sure if it silica issue or not.. I live 500m from the beach, you'd think there would be plenty of silica in the ground....

Here is the Goldmine 7 days after defoliating 1/2 the plant and leaving the other side natural.


7 days ago

Today

So far not much difference in bud size. The leaves have really came back on the defoliated side.

Looking tastey NF!

Thanks lex, i think this plant is going to have some nice big buds. The other goldmine recently harvested is the best weed i have grown yet. After curing for 3 weeks the potency has went way up. This stuff has some nice exspansion, i have to watch out lol.

 

[lexort420]

Nice! Ya they say cures make bud better.

 

[Nicholas Flamel]

Nice! Ya they say cures make bud better.

Much much better

 

[lexort420]

Much much better

Most the time my bud gets a 2 week cure at maximum and I can't tell a big difference, hopefully one of these days i can grow enough so i can afford to set a jar aside for a longer cure.
