Self topped branch on mandorin pheno(youngest one, day 58 for her)
You can see how much I actually pruned from cutting marks. This plant was just a ball of flower, I wanted to have few but bigger nugs so pruned all the bottom flowers.

This is the pre-mix that I was talking about. Not that npk matters but 3-3-5 should be good little boost for flowering if its fast "release" stuff.
It also has seagull guano in it that description doesn't say. I learned it after asking Biobizz what's exactly in the product.

lookin good!
and NPK (and other minerals) does matter in the grand scheme of things. its all about mineral balancing. and cannabis is known for being a potassium whore compared to other flowering plants. I mean look at the size of the flowers... there's as much or more biomass in the flowers of this plant than there is in the rest of the plant all together!

Lowered the lights quite a bit to see what they can take. Also added Y connectors to 2 bulbs and added 2 more weaker bulbs. I got 4x 13w 2700k 1500 and change lumen bulbs and 2x 9.5w 3000k whatever lumen bulbs going. They'll nap after an hour so we'll see next day.
There is some samples drying on the driver.

She got some really thick colas already now that I'm noticing. Horn shaped shot glass sized colas, some thicker, some longer, starts pointy then thickens up towards the bottom. Smells like what I think of haze would smell like. I don't have a word for it, couldn't explain it, but if someone would asked I would say it smells like haze. Spicy and floral? maybe? I don't know.

Bad ass you know about sting nettle tea. All the growers I talk to say o I heard it works. They never actually use it. I've been using it for a while now I'm using the same barrel just keep adding more nettles and elk shit. It's right next to the barrel. I wish I didn't lose my old phone cause I had some pictures of my 10 footers seriously.

Thanks buddy, I'll start growing photoperiods and pheno hunting as soon as my auto seeds finish. I got 10 more auto seeds, so..
There is lots of people that knows about stinging nettle juice. It smells like straight up shit so maybe that's why they don't make it. By the way I don't know about throwing elk shit into the same bucked. Wouldn't that make everything anaerobic? If I had elk shit, I would compost and top dress it in very little amounts.

I thought about that too. But thie hippie lady that goes by the name loco told me about the nettle tea in the first place said to, so I did. She said it would be good for flower. I wish I didn't lose my old phone. I had pictures from summer 2017 out door crop. My first crop in 10 or so years. It kicked ass. I was in my garden when the solar eclipse came over August 21.

You would have to stir it very often though. Few times a day.

lack of oxygen makes things anaerobic, not specific ingredients. aerate things well and you'll kill off anaerobes and promote aerobes

He's talking about making a AACT just by stiring, never heard someone do it before. I'm fermenting the stinging nettle. Those are two different things right? I don't need to aerate it all the time?

yeah AACT will not happen properly if just stirring. O2 will get consumed so freakin fast. You can have an AACT go anaerobic even with bubblers present in the brew. This is why it's important to carefully limit the amount of molasses that goes into a bacterial tea (I don't even brew bacterial teas anymore, the soil has plenty). Ferment is a totally different process, yes. No need to aerate a ferment.

I haven't tried the molasses, she mentioned to put it in there. I just use sting nettles, horse tales, and only a couple times I put the elk shit in. It has a gross but kind of sweet smell. It always has a lot of bubbles on the surface after steering. It makes nice green growth when I feed it to my plants, especially my out door crops.
