I 100% agree with you! Maybe I will, just getting the urge!!
I shoot for about 15% amber but this strain or just cultivar is really testing my patience. Patience will definitely pay off in this run tho.
Resist that urge. Leave them another 3 weeks and you'll have double the weight and double the quality.
I appreciate it man! My set up is a 32x32x60 (height is a problem) with a ks5000 at 50% about 30 inches away lol. Peat based medium with a heavy amount of perlite (5G). Gaia green 284-444 tm7 micros, seaweed liquid and molasses (normally when stretch gets heavy) RO water.
Everyone seems to be in the same page, I’ll let her run.
Why the flush? Last week water only is fine but they’ll yellow too much with 2-3 weeks water only.
That’s a great question and you are correct. As previously stated, I am using Gaia green dry amendments, slow release. Because these plants are running a little longer than the other strains, I have grown. I am looking to keep the nutrient content of the soil up just a little so the Gaia green isn’t completely depleted by the end. Even the soil samples I have sent out previously at the end of a run show a pretty healthy amount of nutrient left, I’m just looking to help further the soils storage. When I said flush, I really meant (rid synthetics and salt). Before my soil goes back into compost storage. Sorry I hope this clarifies.
That over yellowing is exactly what I was afraid of. I was expecting somewhere in the 80-90 day range but from what everyone here and including myself we agree they need to go longer, I’m going to push them into the 100s and the real question is, does the soil have enough organic matter to make it that far. Iv never pushed the soil that hard. If I top dress now it will take 10-14 days to breakdown and probably miss a valuable window for nutrients to be available. This is my way of (limping across the finish line).
