Often a sign of light stress. Did you turn the lights up recently?Hey Gee, I just noticed a slight tacoing of the leaves on one of the Sour Diesel.

I have, and that’s what I think caused it. I’m gonna turn ’em back down tonight. I don’t think I’m getting good PPFD readings from my photon app. Sigh…

Another point on starting with EWC only with aeration is that I suspect all will go great from germination through veg but will become more challenging at beginning of flower. Therefore, I recommend testing with a strain/cultivar well known to the grower so changes in feeding can be anticipated based on experience and prior notes/journals. I plan to do similar but on side with my main grows rather than my next run in journal although happy to share progress and findings in a separate thread.

Turned the light back to 80% & will get it dialed back in tomorrow. My diffuser was improperly placed & the reading I got was much lower than it actually was, so I turned it up. Too close to lights out to fool with it now…

They look nice RobHey Gee, I just noticed a slight tacoing of the leaves on one of the Sour Diesel.

I'd love to hear/see what you find. I'm going to start a few today with some seeds I made, and if they seem to do OK then I may try a Durban Poison next round in a 10gal of EWC. I'm curious to see what they will brix at.

Stretch is demanding more water. I added a 3rd autowatering 2 days ago and it is keeping them in a better place.
0630-0636
1230-1236
1630-1636
Everyone indoors got some fish water and EWC yesterday too.

That will be interesting. I've seen many admonitions about not putting more than 15-20% organics in a mix. I routinely do 33% so seems there's at least some room higher.

Miss Sticky - Day 9 of Flower.
She was stretched up to 1050 PPFD and only had about 16 inches to the light so I flexed her down lower around the edges. PPFD is back to 900. She could easily stretch for 10 more days
Some random shots of some of the 8 mains.
Nice structure.
The neon green is pretty cool.
Miss Sticky aeroclones day 8 in soil.
Aloe is on the right.
3 C-99 seeds in EWC with 2 teaspoons of used soil in the center to plant the seeds in. I want the innoculation from the used soil.
I also added some Bluesky Myco. Then onto a heat mat set at 78F.

Some things, like green bell pepper seeds or certain strains of tomatoes, and avocado pits all not only sprout by the hundreds but if you scoop them out in a wad of EWC so you dont disturb the roots, they will flourish.
I sprout avocados all the time for friends and give it to them in a solo full of EWC with the avocado growing from the nut on the surface and they will grow for months in those solos.
Yet I tried kales and lettuces and not a single seed sprouted.
Other peppers, anything with heat, won't sprout.

Miss Sticky got 80ml Gaia 2-8-4 Power Bloom top dressed on today. I worked it in with yesterday's EWC and then gently watered it in.
Miss Sticky gets a microbe tea this week. EWC, kelp, and molasses.

Hi Rob, I had to calibrate my photon app. Sounds silly but I bought a cheap meter off amazon and used it for cal.. The reason was because I have a screen saver I think.
I had an inexpensive one and it worked but for a short time. I figured the new one was going to do the same so if it cal'd my phone, that could work for a while longer and the meter is still in the box almost new if need be. Pretty sure the app works fine now.
Coots is a heavy ewc guy. Build a soil has some videos with him talking about it. He also feeds his worms what our plants want. I don't know what or if anything else at all goes in his grows. If you want to read a quick interesting thing he wrote.
fantastic! How's your weather holding up? Seems like they might make it from here?The outdoor Gang.

This is actually quite similar to the recipe I use now, except I add more meals.
Weather is anywhere from 4C to 14C at night and 14C-19C in the day so things are still progressing. The BK needs about 3 more weeks but the RVDV's still need 5 or 6 weeks. Those 3 definitely won't make it but fingers crossed on the BK
She is a long tall girl with big bones. She's an all round beauty of a sativa. I hope she buds well
