Nice Mephisto gear.View attachment 3606821
Little 24 carat bonzai is shaping up,estimate a week or 2 left of training,I havent made any cuts on this plant this round.
Why the 50/50 mix of FP/Bloom? Won't that cause premature yellowing?View attachment 3613291
32 days.Started flower feed.Using a 50/50 split dynagro FP/drynagro bloom at .9 EC.Dynagro protekt at .1 EC and BioAg Fulpower fulvic acid at 3ml/liter.
I have to say im really enjoying this perlite grow.No weird CEC problems to worry about,like with coco.Growth rate really seems comparable.
No dude there is plenty of nitrogen in fp,ive ran it 50/50 many times.Works good.I originally got the idea from @homebrewer.Why the 50/50 mix of FP/Bloom? Won't that cause premature yellowing?
@FranJan ,thank you for the comments im glad you are getting some enjoyment from my humble little grow.As far as for an agenda..heh im just a dude trying to grow some medicine in his closet I like the amare I think it performs better than floros for me and I love how my plants look under them. I never had good luck with the standard red/blue lights floating around,but maybe I just didnt get good ones.Ill admit I havent really researched much about the Hans panels,out of curiosity,why do you think they would be a good match for me?Reznhnd just in case I haven't said it, thanks for sharing your grow with everyone. I like the fact that you seem to be the one of the few growers using an Amare that doesn't have an agenda, so I'm really enjoying this thread, especially now you've moved on to perlite and I'm probably going hempy for my next few plants and one of the reasons is looking at some of those pix of yours and I say to myself, "How can that not taste amazing?".
What do you think about MaxiBloom for an entire grow? Someone on here mentioned doing that and I was thinking about doing an organic type grow with compost/guano teas and BMO but now that I think about I wouldn't mind a more specific and simple routine.
Dude you would rock a pair of Han's panels with that style of grow, (I think the Amare is a better unit btw), your style is perfect for Hans' panels. I think he has some new panels coming out sooner or later. you should send him some pix of this grow and score a few demo panels out of him .
Best of Luck and Be Safe Sir!
Hiya cindy, glad you could stop in.Nice to have you along for the ride.I found this thread while doing research for my upcoming perpetual hempy grow. I am extremely impressed, and I love your attitude and the passion you have for growing. I will be following your progress with great interest!
Hans panels work best when scrogging or on highly trained plants and you seem to have the training part down cold . They're pretty damn efficient and Hans has actually designed them for growing weed first so they do grow quality bud. I own Hans panels and can attest to their quality, though they are a bit long in the tooth tech wise, and being in the states can make warranty issues tricky, I would think if Hans saw your grow style, (or I guess I should say the style you are showing in your thread here), he may be very interested to have someone in North America, (I'm assuming large here ), demoing his panel.@FranJan ,thank you for the comments im glad you are getting some enjoyment from my humble little grow.As far as for an agenda..heh im just a dude trying to grow some medicine in his closet I like the amare I think it performs better than floros for me and I love how my plants look under them.

Ive also considered a maxibloom grow,I think I read 7grams of the powder/gal is pretty much all you needIll probably try that at some point.So far im really digging this perlite hempy style,cant wait to see how the finished product turns out.Please stop in anytime
Yeah, I'm having a hard time flowering my GG's under my Amare & Hydroponics Hut lights due to the 18" min. Are those glass lenses 50 degree? Haven't even put mine on yet, just hung them yesterday. Surprised in the build difference in my two lights. The Amares SE-450 is a beast. Makes my HH X5-500 look like a toy. Heavy though. Had to post up a 2"x3" on the ceiling to hang them. Felt like they would rip the strapping & Sheetrock down. In my HPS room I got them babies only inches from the 1000watters due to the fact that I forgot to raise them prior to the wall to wall trellis. Fortunately they're vented well with plenty of air movement in the room so they're good but I don't quite know what to do with the ones about to go into flower, to tall n out of control. That's why I'm thinking of trying out the BML/Fluence SpyderX Plus. But I just bought 3 different lights & I can grow close to the light with the SunCloak. Hoping for the best. Come by my thread, it's called O.C. GG#4's in the SunCloak 4416.Well I finally bit the bullet today and settled on the apache at200 for this space.Good or bad decision,time will tell I spose.Im not unhappy with my amare,its just not really my style.With 50 degree lenses I can get to within a foot of the canopy with the at200.
Cool man ill come check out your shenanigans as far as the glass lense degree on the amare im not sure,but I do know from the reaction of my plants they tend to cause hot spots and light stress if you push them too low.I see it under 22in.Yeah, I'm having a hard time flowering my GG's under my Amare & Hydroponics Hut lights due to the 18" min.

You growing that girl in straight perlite? Pretty cool. I like the way you're plants look. Nice lil bushes. Pretty plant. Good Luck with your new Apache. I hear they're really good lights.
