Oh and thanks for the help everyone! Great community!

Bummer. OK yeah I'll just start over. I could move them outside I guess...but I like my soil too much to lose it :) The seeds are from Oasis and are definitely listed as Auto PKs on the package. The other Autos I got there were indeed autos. To be honest after trying autos (I usually do photos)...

They have 240W QB ~1ft from the tops of the plants for my 2x4ft tent. If anything it's too little light people tell me. The pots haven't dried out. I run on a bluemat system that hasn't run into any issues in a while. Autos are supposed to just be based on time not cycle, but I can also say...

Hello I have some Auto PK plants they took forever to start flowering (roughly 6 weeks ago). I turned my back on them for 2 weeks and I think they have gone back into veg from flower. I've left them at 18:6hr cycle thier whole life, using a Quantum LED board. They had stopped stretching for a...

I keep my seeds for over a year. Historically I have just kept them in my fridge but germination rates weren't great (maybe 50% after a year) so I got a vacuum sealer and started keeping seeds in my freezer. I read about the world seedbanks keeping things at ~0% RH for long term storage so I...

So I made it through my last grow by putting some DE around the base of my plants and then they managed to get big enough for the pill bugs to hurt (but I lost 2 of my 4 plants :( by that point) Now I'm into my next grow and all 4 of my seedlings are dead. There is tonnes of old leaf material...

It was 1 of each of the dry nutes but point taken. I suppose the feedings should have been accelerating as the flower got later in (of which the brown tips were accerating. Added some liquid nutes and another round of top dress just now. Fingers crossed. I've checked runoff and I have good ph...

So my plants were doing pretty well on this run until about 1/2 way through my flower (~5 weeks) where my tips started drying up pretty aggressively and I'm not sure what to do. I grow organic with 1 TBSP each topdressed crabmeal/alfalfa/kelp every 3 weeks. I have an AC infinity which keeps the...

Hello i was wondering if there is some consensus on what the best cover crop is for indoor living soil? There are grasses and legumes and even marigolds. Maybe a mix is best? My setup: I have 20gal pots, will add red wrigglers and grow as long as I can in the same soil if it matters Rye: I...

I'm in. I just ordered 20gal living soil pots for my next cycle. (someone else also recommended bigger pots too :) ). Do you reuse the soil on your next cycle or do you build it fresh every time? I was thinking I would cover crop and toss in some worms and try to just keep it perpetual.

It was recipe #1 from here: https://buildasoil.com/blogs/news/17627464-build-a-soil-from-scratch-in-2-simple-steps I try to grow scrog and make bigger plants so i think I need to top dress a bit. Everyone I meet who just uses water tends to grow SOG or autos or something. I let this one veg for...

I was considering trying to put a 2x4' fabric bed like so: https://www.kisorganics.com/products/grassroots-fabric-pots Into my 2x4' tent The biggest thing that has been holding me back is what to do with runoff water? Or does that not exist with large beds? There is a spill tray in my tent...

OK my next round following this plan still has ended with some grumpy plants. Plan: Week A: top dress EWC Week B: top dress 1tbsp kelp+alfalfa+(crabmeal when in flower) 5 Gallon Pot I switched to flower a week ago after 2 months in veg trying to fill out a SCROG The plant seems generally...

Sorry I top feed (alfafa/kelp/compost) onto my organic soil. 5 gal pot, and the plants are tyically 70% RH @ 78F as controlled by my AC infinity and soil temp controlled heat pad. I tested the soil and the PH is good with my ecosystem and water mix (Ph comes in at~6.7) I didn't top feed a lot...

Hmmm 2 votes for over-nitrogen. I will turn my light to max this week and see what happens (about 20% more than it is now)
