I'm looking for a silicon additive that doesnt raise Ph like Dynagro Protekt does because my water is already high ph.
I'm running 50/50 coco/perlite hempy buckets with OC+.
Thanks for any input.

Top left, Wonder Woman bush - top and bottom right, C99 - middle Blueberry Bliss auto - bottom middle, C99 runt - bottom left, young untouched Wonder Woman

Flipped to 12/12 on the 26th.
She hasn't stretched much (not like the C99's I have along side) lots of bud sites, I topped a half dozen places during veg.

Impressed with the robust growth since I put her in the big room!
Switched to 12/12 for the photoperiod girls on the 26th, she had already started flowering a little before that

Switched to 12/12 on the 26th of Dec.
Pics are after nearly 2 weeks flowering and they stretched pretty hard core. When I took them out of the room for inspection they flopped over.
So I pulled some tomato cages out of my vege patch and cut them to size for the two big girls.
I also did some...
Ok fair warning, thanks man.
I'm only watering about every 4 days even though the coco is still moist but not saturated.
I had an idea for a visual rez check. I've ordered some translucent buckets, same size as my main ones. I'm going to drill holes in the bottom of my mains and sit them in...
Haha yeah thats how I hoped mine would look at 3 weeks but it sure as fuck doesnt!
I had it in the top of my closet with a couple of 200w equiv. CFLs.
Also planted it straight into a hempy bucket without the usual seedling starter cup because I read autos dont like to be transplanted or messed...
Re: different ages/containers - of course when you start you want to super crop /scrog / get a million ounces off your first grow but I think wisdom has prevailed and I've decided to do a couple of grows of various strains and training techniques to hopefully find something thats going to work...
Thanks Watts, the C99 got put into the hempy about two weeks ago.
I had to transplant early from the 1qt. I had them in some peat moss and they weren't happy, I thought it looked like nitro tox but it may have been an acidity thing.
I've been thinking about something I read on an osmocote pdf...
Ah well I guess adding cal-mag isnt such a hassle... takes about 5 seconds :-) It's a small price to pay for the results from this this method.
OC+ and Hempy is the easiest/cheapest method I've ever attempted and so far so (really) good
3 weeks old C99 coco/perlite hempy, OC+, cal-mag and Ph...
The OC+ Hempy seems to be working nicely.

By the way I dropped the CFL bulbs on her when I was fucking around in the closet and snapped off both her second sets!
So she's a stunted little runt now but I'm hoping for a bit of a comeback
