Hope y'all are finding joy in your gardens and love in your hearts.:love:
 
What my first attempt looked like at the same age as their clones are now.

So my crop has much improved. Thank you 420! They look kinda sad. But they were my first and will always be special. I can't wait until my next grow. I am excited with the possibilities the future holds. Man, my first attempt at training was pretty funny. Look at those looping branches. And I took way too much when I did a defoliation. Lesson learned, now we move forward.
 
Hey VG, I've finally caught up with your journal. I feel like I've not only learned a ton about growing but also about how supportive this community is. I'm sorry about your back, but on the bright side it seems like you've got the grow thing down to an art.

On a side note, I'm super curious about your tank(s) Any chance you could upload a few more pics of your fishies?
 
@Madkushy !
Hey! Cool, you made it over here. Glad to see you.
My back sucks, but I know it could be worse. I am fortunate compared to many others.

Ya know, just last night I was entertaining the idea of starting an off-topic. I'm sure that the mods would probably appreciate it. They are gonna be a bit upset when they finally come across my journal. Sooo many off topic pics. I was thinking about starting one about aquariums. I know there are a few members here that might participate.

Right now I only have 2 tanks up. Both have young goldfish. I gave my oldest son a couple of my smaller tanks when I started growing. I was spread too thin with 7 tanks going. And I won't put their health at risk. He's had aquariums since he was 13 , and was trained by me, so I know they'll be ok. If he has any problems , he just has to call.
 
Just got done restaking the girls. They were all floppy.:confused: Stronger stems and better supports are in order for next grow.

Sitting there looking at them I decided that I may want to try to bring the night temps up on the next grow, at least through flowering stretch. Along with a better vegging light I should see improvement in regards to node spacing.

I see some mini oil filled heaters on eBay that look interesting. Does the list of crap ever end? I really don't need/want much more, only....heater, humidifier, ppm meter,bloom boosters .........ugh.

I have nothing. I am using Fox farm trio with the occasional molasses,epsom and a little bit of lime added a few weeks back. They get a little K boost from my pH up. I use potassium bicarbonate.
 
Silica is a good one too add

Maybe Google silica , bet there is a natural way to add it
Diatomaceous earth has silicates in it. I have a bunch of it. I'll mix it in my soil next go. There is also silica sand of course. Got a crap load for my aquariums.
