Irish Boys Return Of The Inferno With The Spectra 180's

[irishboy]

im feeding
Flowering nute tea mix:
2/3 cup Peruvian Seabird Guano
2/3 cup Earth Worm Castings
2/3 cup High P Guano (Indonesian or Jamaican)
5 tsp. Maxicrop 1-0-4 powdered kelp extract
(That makes the "dry mix". You can make all you want and save it to use later.)
Mix with water @ 2 cups of dry mix into 5 gallons of water to make the tea.
To that 5 gallons of tea add:
5 tbs. Liquid Karma
5 tbs. Black Strap Molasses
Use it to water with EVERY watering.


and i havent been phing

at this point i would check PH runoff. i would also not feed every feeding because you can over do it. if it were me i would just add seaweed and maybe humic acid every other feeding. if not atleast seaweed and not so much the guano. if ur micro life is good you should be able to add no PH stuff like i did on my 600w organic grow. are you letting the tea brew? do not add the guano and let teas brew!! everything els is fine and let brew for 24hrs if temps are warm or 36hrs if temps and cold under 70F*

heres a tea recipe that might help.. you dont need their brand name stuff..

Compost Tea

Liquid fertilizers made from manure and compost have been around for centuries. Manure tea made from worm castings can be sprayed on leaves or added to the soil to form a protective barrier against bad fungi and bacteria. Repeated applications revitalizes the soil and allow the cultivation of plants without the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

How to make your own
To make your own compost tea, you will need a 5 gallon bucket, a fish tank aeration pump, and a nylon sock. As a food source, humic acid, earth worm castings and sugar.

1. Fill bucket with water. setup aeration pump, and run the pump for at least one hour to remove the chlorine from the water.
2. “Add to the water” two tablespoons of sugar, two ounces of Age Old Liquid Kelp and two liquid ounces of humic acid liquid.
3. Place one pound of earthworm castings into sock and suspend the casting into the bucket for at least 24 hours, but no more than 48 hours. During the entire brewing process, and storage period keep pumping air into the solution. This will keep the organisms in the tea active and alive.
4. Use the brew within 24 hours after brewing process is complete.

I think you're onto something here. The plants that grew up to my light had no bleaching. When I had the light too low for all of them there was a little bleaching. I figure if the plants grow into the light as opposed to slamming it down on top of them, then it's fine.

ya bro no one seems to have issues if they let the plant choose. my girls are loving the light with it up high and i am in horrible condition's... at the end you still want to try to not the plants grow into the lights.. you dont get the wavelength mix from the leds

some very nice work irishboy.............

thank you sir! i try to do best in my condition's!

love the work you do also bro, big fan of 12/12 from seed and its a game plan with these leds soon. or maybe even 12/12 from clone. gonna keep these girls pretty short also i am thinking?

ever try the extreme flower LEDS? im tryin one 180 myself and can only marvel at what ur doing. I'm taking notes man check out my grow journal as its my first time ever growin, and your posts made me start up using LEDS rather then HID first.

 

[fartman]

i have been putting everything in a nylon(including guanos)and brewing it wit a air rock for 2 days,how do i do it without putting the guano in it to brew to?
i need to get a ph meter
ill start just putting seaweed(kelp?) and humic acid in every other feeding ,ill have to get some humic acid

no i havent never even heard of them. just look for grow journals proving the lights because no leds are the same

ya u do not want to brew guanos it can bring out the bad guys. i would add that right when ur ready to feed and not brew it.. humic acid is very good stuff, Google it and see all the things it will do. Dio Not be afraid to give plan water also between feedings

 

[fartman]

sounds like a gameplan thanks man
im gonna look into that other recipe you posted too,worm castings are hih here but all in all it might be cheaper
my ww and short rider have been in 12 12 for 7 days and the sr has hairs (3 or 4 lol) cant wait for the other ww's to get done veggin so i can put them in flower and fire up the second 290 im thinking the overlapping is gomnna be intense

looking forward to your next update

 

[hippy132]

Just purchased 2 180's and should be here soon. following with hope in my eyes. Any suggestion on PH or any other needed meters, for successful LED soil grow.

sounds good. when making ur own teas ur really have to do your own homework and know what dose what. every reaction has a reaction. Google is ur best friend.

as far as the light keep it as close as you can and only add the 2nd one when u need to because of lack of foot print. do not just nuke ur girls thinking ur gonna get bigger buds.

na bro nothing more then what you would need with any other light. u need a meter no matter what light you use.

heres a little update. ive had them for 5 days now? going threw some crazy temps but still looking great and moving on nice even after the hash transplant. i am very happy about that.

 

[stoneyluv]

I envy your cloning success rate and FUCK CASEY JONES!

thanks bro. i just fired up the other 180w. so now i have 2x180's running. their about 38" above the tallest plants. the 1x180w was doing the trick but with the 2nd one it covered things real nice. i am impressed with how much the 2x180's cover in my 4x4 tray.. i am trying to keep the lights pretty high and slowly let them get use to it. these lights are pretty bright.lol

I envy your cloning success rate and FUCK CASEY JONES!

thanks bro! and ya fuck Casey Jones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we just done get along.lol

hows it going irish

 

[irishboy]

great so far, as you can see in the pics i posted the girls are happy so i am happy.lol.

 

[hellraizer30]

thats alway good to hear, all thing looking good irish

thanks brother. we will see how these next few days go, its gonna be very very hot. today was pretty hot and their taking it pretty well for how young they are. about to setup my automatic bottom fed system any day i am thinking. ill post pics for you guys.

 

[irishboy]

my drip/wick system should be up and running tomorrow for testing. ill get picks up when i run the test fed to see how it works out? very simple and cheap and should be pretty effective.

 

[irishboy]

heres some pics to get the idea of the setup i am making. this isnt done still have work to do but gives the idea of what i am doing. i am gonna drill a small hole on the top of each of the saucers and run the drip line threw it to make sure it stays in place. i have a digi timer that will run for a minute or so and fill each saucer and they the medium will wick the water up to the plant. the bottom fed wicking with the fabric pots and the heavy soiless mix with lots of perlite should give great air to the roots. each saucer will be allowed to dry out so roots are not sitting in water the whole time, then when they get hungry again the timer will go off and flood the saucer again.

simple cheap and should be effective
