View attachment 3170257 View attachment 3170258 Went ahead and transplanted everything today into air pruning pots. I've never used them before, but I've had quite a few people tell me it will increase my yield. I definitely think it might because I always have a hollow spot in my root ball. I used a 30/30/30 mix this time of Happy Frog, FFOF, and perlite. Hoping using happy farm in there can cover whatever it is that FFOF is always missing. I know my light is high, but I just didn't feel like putting the other one up today. Still reading 700 lumens/sqft at the outer edges, so I'm not too concerned for a day or two. The magical took care of that struggling BOG. She's back to normal =D
have you triewd mixing auroras potting soil and adding the soilless? its pretty nice and different plus add the mycorrhizae into the soil myself I use mykos and great white.

According to an article I just read about odd cannabis phenomenon, some plants will "self-top." It's obviously some sort of mutation, but so long as she doesn't have any other ill effects from it, I'll be happy that the AK48 I have does that. Still very weird to me that this long into growing I'd never heard of this happening to anyone else

Not sure if we even have it at my shop. I'll check it out though. Why do you like it? Anything special? I have been using Orca or GW, but I'm switching to pond enzymes from petco. Much cheaper @ $13.99!!!

Rice crispy treats with a chocolate layer melted over the top is my favorite. Not sure how they're made, but they're damn good.

Mmm all that butta!
The rice crispy treats are made the same way I make my fruity pebble and sorta how I make my applejack treats. Just melt down some marshmallows with the butter and mix hot with the cereal! Put in a sprayed pan and cool... But the chocolate... That's a great addition! And now you've got me thinking about making some fudge too lol. So many possibilities!!!

how long do you cook youre butter? I use a crok pot and cook it for a whole day pretty much, and I alsop use coconut oil.
I never thought about coco oil, that's a great way to be more versatile and healthy! I usually cook for 1-2 days, but after several comparisons, 6-8 hours gets the same result but my house stinks half as long!

And the oil usually melts off my blowing instruments into the butter within 30 seconds so I don't imagine the bud would take more than 2-3 hours. I'll probably go even shorter on a run next week and compare. Maybe 3 hrs vs 6

be careful with the cheaper brands the tend to have impuritiys in them if that's the correct word im looking for. and then the soils are from roots organics. the FFOF isn't organic anymore they switched some ingredients around, and I like the roots organics better because the FFOF burns my plants everyttime I transplant into it. and adding the roots organic soilless is just coco coir and perlite with some nutes in it. idk satistically wehy but to me ive gotten better results with roots organics tghen Fox farm.

also try blending the budd and trimmings. I used my pro ninja blender and blended all 5 ounces and used three jars of coconut oil. it also has a higher rehgronated fat or whatever then butter does. so it bonds better.

Is that soil the one with the camo bag? My buddy also recommended it, but I like the heat of ffof. I've never had anything but a touch of burn on the tips and before switching to organic (other than ffof I guess) I always kept a burn on the tips so I knew they were loaded up!
As far as the rehydrogenated oil, do you know where you read up on that? I've never seen any science on butter,but I would love to know why that's the case. I'm an info whore ;)

andyea its the one in a camo bag. give it a try, I think its worth it plsu its organic soil unlike ocean forest. it sucks that its not organic anymore I used to use the poo out of it then they did something to it and now burns my shit every transplant. I can show youmy bubblegum I have that I transplanted into the FFOF and you can clearly see the burn.

You got the Sativa or Indica bubblegum. Indica is from T.H. I stuck the seed straight in ffof and she loved it, but most sativa's I have grown have been more nute sensitive. How far along is your B.G.? Post some pics of it! Today's the first feeding for my girls so I'll be posting some too.

I just hit everything with a nute tea and topped anything that looked like it needed it. Overall the girls are doing great. Seems it's going to be fairly easy to pick out my keepers just judging from veg. The strains I have multiples of all have 1 that is setting the bar.

100_1311.JPGSome stretch going on. I need to get my other 600 in the room but can't find 8" clamps in town for my new fan =( Guess I'll have to bite the bullet and fork out the extra cash at the grow shop.

100_1313.JPGJack is a little stretchy cause I started it later and just decided to let it catch up in height instead of getting it closer to the light.
