I just harvested my 3 Jack Herer and 1 SFV OG (BagSeed). Now I'm not sure if it's myself constantly being around my plants or that you really need different variation of nutrients during flower or that the plants I grew are bagseed or a combination of everything. But my plants have never smelled...

Harley Smith he also has a lot of youtube videos talking about plant biology and physiology. Very informative stuff.

This also happened to me and I think still is happening. My pH from runoff is always lower than the pH of water I have been putting in. And my plants seem to be doing fine.

I am still going strong in my "Bugbee Method" grow. I got 3 Jack Herer and 1 SFV OG all in 3 gallon pots in a 3x3x6 grow tent using a 240W Kingbrite QB. Day 47 in flower.

I too am growing using the Bugbee method. This is my first official grow starting from seed and it's just bagseed 3 Jack Herer and 1 SFV OG. I want to become more familiar with growing before I spend money on genetics. I am watering by hand at the moment and I'm starting to see how having an...

No. It's 40g (Lime) per 28.3 L of medium so ~1.4g/L. Oh okay. I have yet to have an overwatering issue using vermiculite.

Yes you are correct and that I did not know to be honest. And makes sense why a lot of people use perlite. Thanks for teaching me something new.

Also my math was wrong on the Dolomite Lime I was thing 20g when I did my math when its actually 40g so its 5.3g per gallon. Also you need to take into consideration that Peat is very acidic for a media and adding vermiculite brings the pH of the media up a bit to ~4.5pH and the 40g of Lime per...

Per gallon? Going to have to do some math here...~2.6g of Dolomite Lime per Gallon of Medium and ~1.3g of Gypsum per gallon of medium. I think that's right....:confused:. And yes you can change the vermiculite for perlite but then it wouldn't be the "Dr. Bugbee mix". Also you would need to buy...

Wow that looks like a lot of bud you got growing there. Sorry to hear about the height issues, hopefully it doesn't become a big problem. How much was your auto watering system, I am thinking about getting one.

Here is another update on my grow. I am 33 days into flower.

I am currently using the Dr. Bugbee mix. 50% Peat Moss, 50% Vermiculite, Dolomite Lime, Gypsum. I have 4 plants in a 3x3x6 grow tent and the plants are in 3 gallon pots and they are growing fast. Today I have flipped the light cycle to 12/12 to start flower. Every time I water the plants I do so...

Temp during the day is 78°f - 81°f with 70% RH and at night it can get as cold as 65°f. And I keep my light at least 18 inches away from my biggest plant.

I have a 240w Kingbrite 3500k + epistar 660nm. I've been also trying to find a good VPD chart to make sure that's all in order. But there are so many different ones that give different VPD's. My plant is still a light green and 2 bottom leaves are getting necrosis and falling off. I hope it...

So what's a good starting EC and how and when do I work up to 1.3?

What EC do you start with? I have been giving this plant around the same EC everytime I fertigate, even the smaller plants get the same EC. I'm doing my best to stay as close to Dr. Bugbees method. His video never specifies anything about varying EC's during different stages of the plants...

Okay so I did a up-pot today into a 2 gallon pot from a 1 gallon. My plants roots where everywhere I did not expect all those roots. I added some more Dolomite lime and then fertigated. My pH run-off was 5.4 and my EC was 1.4. The pH of the water solution was 6.0 and the EC was 1.3. I'm also...

I've been thinking about how to grind my Dolomite Lime into a powder and I'll look into an electric coffee grinder. I found a place where I can buy a 25Ibs bag of powder Dolomite Lime for $7.25 and I'm thinking about buying it rather than buying a $20 grinder haha. I tried to grind down a...

I have no way of testing the pH of the media as I only have a EC meter and pH meter for the water solution. I test the water pH and EC after adding the nutrients to the water. And I test the EC of the run-off to make sure it doesn't get too high. I always make sure the pots are dry/light in...
