The Joy Of Growing - SweetSue Goes Perpetual

The pizza hit the spot. It's a beautiful overcast day and I'm thinking charge up the iPad and phone, catch a righteous buzz with what I have left of the Dark Devil Auto and walk down to my favorite restaurant to sit on the back porch and have coffee while I watch the river run.

Sounds like a plan. It's such a relaxing place, and on a Monday night they're bound to be slow, so it won't matter that I'm taking up the table for so long. I tip good. They like me there. :battingeyelashes:
 
I'm looking on with interest at your cat drenches. It is the one that makes me more nervous than anything else in the kit.
5 ml sounds like a lot to me for that pot, but IDK. Since this is the only part of the kit I haven't used, I'm trying to learn as much as possible about what works best. :high-five:

hi sweetsue,

i think i incorrectly posted this in another members journal ... Sorry!

So i can assume if one is looking for the ultimate in sleep assistance that dark devil is not the correct strain? I'm already of hyper mind and have a chance to grow a dark devil from seed, but not sure i need to be more speedy, especially of mind!

Sorry dale didn't get a chance to sample it, but perhaps raise the last gram high in his memory upon consumption. I've read through a decent portion your journal and i offer my condolences on your loss. Also, big props to you on living through and with your grief, it is a strange journey. I really don't know you, but i do appreciate the magnitude of your loss as i too have walked many miles with heavy grief. May the best of karma smile upon you throughout your journey, i think you just may have earned it as the loving caretaker.

Jbuptown, i'm so moved by that. Thank you. :Love: I live here at 420 magazine these days, surrounded by positive intentions all day, every day. Karma smiles on me all the time. I must have made serious karma deposits as i journeyed through life. :laughtwo:

Props for reading through much of it. My journals seem destined to be information bombs. I wouldn't have it any other way. :cheesygrinsmiley:

I wouldn't put my Dark Devil into the bedtime meds column. :laughtwo: I haven't heard anyone else describe it like mine, so it may be the soil I grow in bringing out different effects, but I find it zippy and then some. I personally have a love of zippy, and I don't really sleep like I used to before Dale died, so I can't speak to how it would effect sleep.
 
Actually Duggan I'm an industrial maintenance technician we don't have to be certified since we're not installing equipment we just have to go through all the schooling to understand the theory and use proper calculations to trouble shoot down falls in our production facility.

And I don't know if it has been mentioned but I have had 4 very smelly girls in a tent with a phresh brand filter ..... nothing makes it out, completely odorless until un zipped

Major....know what ya mean pal. What i've learned about the Cationic Drench is three things ,so far...#1, timing matters...
#2, it's strong(changes types of N)
#3,it works
I can also say that with these Desfrans....i had no burnt tips till they got two CD's. I'm still learning how much to give ....the thing is, different strains react differently depending ...The heavy feeders with alot of Indica ,don't mind the CD at all but these fiicky Sativas need less of it. Doc's WN loves the shit ,so .....lotsa fun figuring it all out. Cheers pal!

How much did you use for each of your two CD's in those huge pots?
Thanks, man!
 
Excellent Girl. Have a nice night down at the river....sounds very relaxing indeed....can i come along? We could get blasted on some Mazar and watch the river flow....ya baby! Betcha we'de have a few laughs!!!

Major, I followed Graytail's recommendations for the measurements and went for a middle range of 5ml, because I don't plan for any run off. I get it all into the pot before I'm done.

Benchmark dosages:
1 Gallon pot = 0.5-1.0 ml Drench, 0.05-0.1 ml Tea
7 Gallon pot = 3-7 ml Drench, 0.3-0.7 ml Tea
10 Gallon pot = 5-10 ml Drench, 0.5-1.0 ml Tea

I missed those benchmarks. The reason I asked is the kit instructions say 15 ml total for six 7 gal pots.

Let me ask Master Graytail where those benchmarks came from. :battingeyelashes:
 
Major, I left him a message, but he doesn't usually come on until around 1-2 AM. I'll find out though, and post when I get the answer.
 
Over time, I've watched a lot of HB growers give increased dosages of the drenches with no ill effects, so I take the initial recommendation as conservative. It's really a rather crude guideline, the result of reducing 1000 sqft to a single pot or group of pots. You divide 1000 sqft by the 32 sqft in a 4x8 and you get roughly 30, so 1/30 of the lab recommendation. But you also have to consider soil volume vs canopy, which is far larger in an outdoor garden.

So when I wrote the benchmarks, I rounded up to 3 instead of 2.5, and 7 mls is still a safe dose if you feel some tinkering is in order.

:Namaste:

Thank you Graytail. That should prove helpful. Geez, I love this site. :Love:

Taking that into consideration, I feel very comfortable about going with 5 ml CAT. If this Auto Destroyer had been bigger and more vigorous, more would have been called for.

Good. Apparently I was paying attention in class. Whew! :laughtwo:

Dropped in for a quick hug.... Have a geat night Sue!

:hugs::angel::geek::angel::hugs::angel:

Second longer hug.

Are you going to grow your clone girls a little larger? I don't see where without a larger area at 16/8...not that I'm advocating another tent :rofl:

The hugs are well timed. How do you guys know when I need them? Oh yeah - it's kind of all the time eh? :rofl:

I had to laugh at that Rad, because I immediately looked around and thought " Well I could fit a little tent right over there, since Dale won't need that half of the living room for trains and hobbies anymore." Hahaha!
 
ty for posting that sue now I have my shopping list
