im in a soilless medium and i still still straight water every other feed? that seems too often to me :\ . when i say a flush everyweek maybe i should clear that up, im just feeding one straight water every week. i was planning to substitute the straight water for a tea weekly. I spent like 4 hours reading up on tea last night i think im getting the idea.

im not using the pharana and tarantula, i been going with the voodoo juice, orca, and roots excell. Seems to be an expensive habit but it works well

Matt the voodoo is a beneficial bacteria from what i know? <-- not a whole lot.


PHISH! i got my split for a grand from a buddy. New one for 12 is about what i saw. remember the more seers it is, the more efficient it will be
hell yeah man go for it, dont understand how benificials can live in a bottle like that though *scratches head* would think they would die from lack of oxygen but i dont really know. just substitute the earthworm casting for the voodoo juice and dont use a "tea bag" just dump some into the bucket and airate with molasses and let them babys multiply.

i made a tea using bananna before, seemed to work out well. i think the 2 bananas i used in my tea gave enough for the soil microbes to break down for the entire flowering period.

im about to "flush" my frisian dew with some molasses water and let it go another week then chop chop.....

heres a few pics of my girls :)

this one is dutch passion's frisian dew.

below is big buddah blue cheese, this plant has got some serious foxtailing going on, kinda cool.

both plants taste superb, the frisian dew is going to be chopped next week and the blue cheese is on week 5 but im thinking it will go 9 weeks easily. the frisian dew will be 10-11 weeks flower by the time i chop.

week 4. i had to lay a couple of the sativas over, they were almost 6 feet tall and fucking up the canopy. the room is full as hell, hand watering is a whole lot of fun. I got to army crawl under them to water a few of the back plants. I think the mites are gone, but everytime i say that i find more, going to continue spraying the next 5 or so days and hopefully have it handled. let me know what you think

looking great!!!!

next grow maybe a auto watering system setup to pump each plant X amount of nutrient/water solution per day and every 3 days the rezz empties and you can refill with reg water or nutes depends on what feeding schedule you run.

if you get a 1GPM pump you could run it like for 1 min once every hour, 1 gallon/# of plants = xx amount of water every hour, where they are getting bigger they are drinking more but you can always tweek your math to fit your situation. all you would need is the pump, some tubing to run to each plant and some sort of rubbermaid for use as a rezz, and a timer capable of handeling more advanced on/off controlls

i was thinking about doing something like this.. i just dont know where i would put a huge ass res. im watering about 30 gallons everyday. I previously used a water wand and a hose and had a pump in my res, but its too hard for me to measure the amounts that each girl is getting. and my buddy told me that once the pump is running you cant shut it off a bunch between plants. this led to a huge mess, the hose and wand knocking out plants, theres just not enough room lol.

plants look great man. i was doing it by hand in the beginning then switched over to a water wand on a pump as well. i stopped though cause i couldn't tell either how much i was feeding them. i'm looking into drip stakes. seem easy enough but nothing ever is in growing. basically you set them up on a pump and timer. stick one of them in a measuring glass before put them in the pots. then run it for an hour or so and figure out how much water comes out. then you can kinda teak them as needed throughout the grow. that way you mix a res and let it go. i only water every 3 days so i'm thinking just mix a new res every time and then just let it run till the res is gone. that way i don't need to worry about air stones and algae and crap in the reservoir.

awesome man plants look Uh-mazing. Ive used a green light before and like someone else sadi it should be horticultural grade, but no biggie just watch getting in an out out the room that brings normal light in, turn off all other lights outside the room prior to jumping in and if you have an old light fixture in the room throw a green bulb in it and run it from the light switch. thats what i did. I was up in Norcal too, closer to the coast though. Serenade works awesome in veg and if used properly can be used like 3wks into flower with weaker doses. Props man Looks amazing. :blsmoke::peace::leaf:

I like getting like a 500gallon/hr pump and running a wand, I like to brew teas and let em sit for a while and aerate and i found that was the easiest with the high number of plants, i had beds too so getting into the middle was an adventure to say the least.

i did beds my first run with soil, with no drainage or way for the roots to breathe. needless to say i went into it with no idea what i was doing and the guy that was showing me the ropes was dumber than myself. the water wand and hose was real nice with beds though i miss that.

im not sure what serenade is?

the army crawl is not chill. i dont have overflow trays, i just let the run off take care of itsself lol so i get to pretty much lay in nutrient water to get the back few plants. its a bonding experience haha

definatly way more than 7 providing you dont fuck anything up from now till harvest. i havested 2 plants and the bigger one was 4-5 weeks early and still made out with over 1 pound of wet material, break that down and i think at least 6 Oz once it has dried and cured, you have what 5 plants?

providing you dont kill them i would estimate between 2-2.5 Oz per plant min (dry weight)
