Wat are you blokes doing for seed storage? Im gonna be needing to store for atleast 5 or so months.. Herd the fridge with a silica satch, air tight and light tight.. if so im thinkin of just getting a mini fridge and dedicating it for seeds.. i norm just leave em in a tin but she gonna be hot here soon last thing i wont is dead seeds...

Got mine in bags with rice inside small sealable Tupperware containers then put them inside a big container in a fridge that doesn’t get opened all the time

I’m thinking excess potassium maybe,but I’m definitely not certain that’s what it is.

kk eather way i rekon ill just water it from now on

I was looking into the rise method just now.. so you dont chuck a silica in there with urs just rice? Do ya just switch the rice out every year or so..How long have ya had them last for?

Why won’t you add anything when you use gogo ?

I see go go juice as a stand alone soil benefectory
My thinking is if I'm i want that go go juice in the soil to have the soil prime when I feed a few days later..so is rather add it alone and let it do its job
Might not make any difference but its how I think about it

Cool I’ve not thought about it that way,it might not make a difference but It might aswell especially considering you have already got stuff that’s youve added to your soil.

I’ve got the little silica bags inside the containers but I wouldn’t have them in contact with seeds

I’m only having a bit of rough guess about what the problem is.

It prob doesn' make one bit of difference coco its just my way of thinking

Yeah thats what im thinking, i just hit it with the seasol and powerfeed at a pretty high dosage so maybe the rooster booster just started to hit it. Oh well im sure theyll grow out of if it ill just feed with water for a couple weeks.

I probably wouldn’t double up with that combo,powerfeed is pretty much Seasol with a few extras I think @rubyfruit and @Lucky Luke would be able to point you in the right direction as too the best strength to feed with it I don’t use it very often.
Think you are right and they’ll grow out of it.

Ive had similar weird growth like that before, Plant seems to grow thru it no problems. Your new growth is very dark, id lay off the N for awhile. New growth is normally a lighter green isn't it?

I do mix power feed and seasol together and I think the directions say you can. Powerfeed is the fert and has the NPK and a small amount of trace and seasol just has the trace. You don't mix the two together at the high recommended dosages thou.
Ruby and I would use it differently to each other as he also uses that fert he gets from the states (maxi crop is it?) and is in the ground. I'm in pots so I'm much more susseptical to salt build ups. I use them both at 1/2 recommended strengths approx. once a fortnight thru veg. Rubys plants are also allot bigger and maybe older than mine so can take a higher dosage.

checked on things today and can confidently say that both PK x malawi are females, one Skywalker x NL is male and the other is a female. I think I'll dust all of them with the sw OG x NL pollen so I'll have a bunch of mongrel seeds to pick through

Also busted a fucking bird chomping a leaf off my sapphire OG so I wired a bit of a cage over it. My shitty auto is still budding away - will be done by about the new year and I'm going to pull my c99s in a week or so. last week of work for me this week then getting on a plane, going up the coast and getting fucked up

Yeah i think my problem was i mixed both together at full strength, good to know it should grow out of it though cheers.

Yep different strokes for different folks at luke.
I had the max sea from the states' last yr but only one seasons supply so I'm back to old school this year powerfeed,eco seaweed and gogo juice.
I have a couple bloom options to choose from when the time is right.
I swear by maxsea after last years harvest so if by chance Amazon stock it ill be using it in the future again.
I think the maxsea last yr was worth a half pound minimum more on overall total harvest so well worth it.
In my grow experience I'm just not a grower that mixes liquid ferts I'd rather feed solo than mix.
It works for me but may not work in other situations.
Plants have grown 10cm in height in 4 days ...i need all I can get the next 6 weeks I'm so far behind last yr in terms of size its not funny...

I like to mix my liquids up a bit just so can get a broader range of elements into the plant all at once but that might not necessarily work the way I think it does,but I’m a bit of a “more is better” type when it comes to feeding which might be a carry over from doing indoor so much and My lack of knowledge about plant nutrition,but at this time of the year if the plants are healthy they’ll take just about anything you throw at them so I’ll keep feeding heavy for another 3-4 weeks then start to pull back once they have fully set flower.

From the powerfeed and Seasol ? Aren’t they organic ? I’ve never looked at the sodium levels on the bottles but organic ferts wont cause salt buildup like conventional ones do.

Doubling up with them you would have had pretty high potassium levels in your mix so it probably took up a bit too much all at once.

Yep every chance I get these bitches are getting fed...yest was the first day since start if season I was ok to bring the water moisture probe out ffs

Yeah could be that, either way i reckon ill just feed water until they look like they need a feed and ill feed a bit less.
