My NS2 clone is in rough shape, but it might be ok. I hope so cuz I'm happy with the one in Bloom(NS2 Plant). I learned my lesson. I took the clone a little lower on the plant and the stem was a little smaller. That SB3 clone had a fat stem and shot roots waaay better. Fat Stems = Nice Roots My reasoning was that I was putting her in Bloom and didn't want to steal one of her prescious dominant tops. Won't matter once I have a mom. If it doesn't pan out, I'll use one of my two NS I have in veg to get a fat stem clone to make a mom. If they all take, they can battle to be the best. I need a bigger Veg Box!

One comment on the LED vs HPS, the soil dries much slower without the heat. Growth is still good, but slowed a bit I think. Then again...half the wattage.

Leaving for two days, I watered the shit out of everything. Praying my shit doesn't dry out.

Looking good!!! How strong a dose of bloom nutes are you feeding them currently?

950-1000 ppm. Today was:
4 ml Botanicare Calmag Plus
4 ml Gen Hydro Micro
4 ml Gen Hydro Grow
6 ml Gen Hydro Bloom
4 ml Advanced Nutrients Bud Ignitor
5 ml Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy
Mixed with 8ppm RO water, PH 6.0-6.2
Running 750w HPS, 204w LED, 954w Total

I also fed my Veg plants today:
4 ml Botanicare Calmag Plus
4 ml Advanced Nutrients B-52
2 ml General Hydro Micro
2 ml General Hydro Grow
2 ml General Hydro Bloom
4 ml Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy
600 PPM
I backed it down some now that I switched from 400w MH to 200w LED
Right when I transition, I'm running about 800-900 ppm. I'll ramp up to 1200 - 1500 week 4-6, then start walking it back down. I switch the Botanicare Calmag Plus to the same ppm of Epsom Salt around week 5-6. I've been moving to AN's additives instead of Kool Bloom.

BTW, basically using a nutrient-less medium. Did throw a small amount of Ancient Forest, Azomite, and Mykos this time though.

Nice thanks for the info!!! I started them in 5gal pots with ffof/vermiblend/growstone/vermiculite/roots organic soulless a week or so two before flower. Pretty heavy on the vermiblend too. I feel as though that has been depleated by now (day 16 flower). I just gave my last dose of added nitrogen so I was curious how hard to hit them with bloom nutes (they have only been receiving 2ml floranova bloom 2ml potash plus) also calmag, blackstrap molasses at watering, and Seaweed/fish.
Was going to go
5ml flora bloom
3ml potash plus
5ml calmag
I'll be dusting bennificial bacteria on the soil again as well before the feeding.
I was looking into bud factor x or bud candy but my hydro store dudes said just stick with the pk booster I have and see what happens. I was also looking into amino acids to add

Do you know what bud factor x is? It simulates an insect attack to increase resin production. That sketches me out a bit...I'd rather experiment with UV light for that. If you're using molasses, you don't need Bud Candy. Bud Candy is like a refined molasses with added Magnesium.

I'd be careful how much Ocean Forest in the blend if you Transplant during flower. You want to limit Nitrogen sources.

I checked my notes ha. I transplanted on April 27th so they've been in that soil for a month now (the roots are sticking out of all 20 holes in the bottom ha). I didn't feed them the first three waterings (only calmag and molasses). Started feeding Veg nutes then 50/50 Veg/bloom. They just had a gallon of water each (nice ass runoff, and another 50/50 nute mix, then a small watering). I was going to go full bloom. It's now. They look, healthy!
I'm a super noob but I've done a lot of reasearch and I like getting a people's real life opinions to go with the "internets" opinion haha. Any help is much appreciated

I've heard of it, but remind me what vermiblend is

Really?! Nice! Haha. Today is day 16. Should I use the molasses only during waterings or can I toss it in either the nutes being how I haven't given it in 2 weeks?
