The Gee Spot - You Finally Found It

[StoneOtter]

They have 2 OMRI certified fertilizers. A 4-4-4 for veg and a 2-8-4 for flower. Here are the ingredients. An X means it's in the mix.
I think if you combined the 2 equally it would only be missing dolomite and it would be 3-6-4 which is damn near perfect.

What are your thoughts on it being a commercial all-in-one ammendment?

Combined equally 3-6-4

So it looks like something I'd like seperate. How would you use it as one? Are you talking about cannabis food or general?

For growing weed yes. Do you think it would make a good all in one ammendment if you added in dolomite? Either seperate veg/flower mixes or combined to make a 3-6-4 mix for an all-in-one?

 

[Gee64]

It covers all the bases.

 

[Gee64]

I added up my soil recipe, subtracted the dolomite, and it works out to 1 cup of mixed ammendments per gallon of soil. I wonder if 1 cup of this per gallon of soil all cooked in with some dolomite would work well.

 

[Gee64]

I go from seed to flower in flower soil, I don't use veg soil, so I would mix it, but you could go either way if you like to seperate the mixes.

 

[StoneOtter]

It sure looks like it. I'm weak in soil makeup/building still so I'm not the one to ask and rely on I think. Next to your wonderful self that's why I hang here.

You can get 44lb bags for 90 bucks CDN, so 7.50 US

It caught my eye when I saw the ingredient list. It's very close to Rev's recipes

Wow! That's a good price! It does look like it tracks his recipe! Hmmmm

 

[Gee64]

Hmmmm

Exactly what I said

 

[Gee64]

I wonder if you could use it like Geoflora? Just mix it in, plant, and topdress regularly. I may have to try.

 

[Gidorah]

Everything in 1 bag, sounds good to me. Geoflora works, maybe when i run out, i will try the Gaia. Gonna be a while though, i just got big bags GF that i haven't opened yet.

 

[Gee64]

I might grab some next time I run out.

I hate cutting in when painting

It's the part I actually like most. There is a zen about it.

I perform without a net. No tape. Just my steady hand and the right brush.

So many questions..

My 1st response would be that your lights are too dim or you arent in a sealed tent with proper ventilation.

What's your ambient temps

82*F, Range: 84-66F.

leaf temps?

68*F

humidity?

29%, Range: 51-21%

and how long after lights on was the reading?

2 hours

Was it right after a heavy watering?

No

What stage of growth?

Veg prepping for flower.

I suspect my very low humidity has something you do with it, and I may rig something up to increase that measurement at least. The others are pretty much uncontrollable given the extremely small footprint and height issues.

That actually gives you a VPD of 1.26 which is pretty much were you want it for their age. Thats pretty hot and dry but it works. I wouldn't change anything until you can lower room temps or better yet, raise humidity. Or if they are growing well, keep going.

Are you in a confined space with ventilation?

Kind of amazing they get themselves in the best position no matter what they are dealing with. Do you have a suggestion for an app for vpd, or are they all pretty much the same?

I turned on the seedling mat underneath my clone area so I put a liter cup of water on it.

Or if they are growing well, keep going.

They've slowed way down as the weather has turned, and I'd like to get the one plant ready for flower going a bit faster. I may add a heating mat below it as well to see if that helps. I did that last year and it seemed to go ok.

Are you in a confined space with ventilation?

Yes, and passive inflow with fans on the out.

Good on trying to get your RH up. It is amazing how they balance themselves out.

I use this one, but any that have 3 inputs, air temp, leaf temp, and RH, will work.

 

[Gee64]

How far from your lights are you? what kind of light?

Durban Poison - Day 60 of Flower.

The leaves are starting to get canabalized. I pulled about 10 completely dead and shrivelled leaves from the under side of the canopy.

The aroma is very strong today.

I lowered my temps to 75, leaves dropped to 73, and RH is at 40. That has my VPD at 1.59.

I'm going to dry them out a bit to make sure mold and bud rot don't have a chance. I lowered UV from 1.75 hours at midcycle to 1.25 hours at midcycle.
