Damn man, I'm at 72 days and I didn't start producing any bud until about day 52 when I flipped to 12/12.
This wasn't a freebie either! I paid for it! Hopefully it'll fully flower for like 5 to 6 more weeks and end up giving me a decent harvest! From the looks of things I should be ok.
l started budding at the same time after I flipped to 12/12, but the auto bub is well ahead of both widows!
The bagseed that started later on is also FULL OUT flowering!
its exciting as I have no idea what it is, but know it came from some bomb smoke! It's such a sexy plant still!
Giving the smaller plants their first tea today! It's gonna be nice to have this staggered harvest! The last couple weeks of so of the smaller plants lives be able to shine all the light on them, so maybe I'll end up with a couple ounces from the second harvest?! Hope so and I think so! Damn they're growing fast now!
Pics later :leaf:

edit* also read last night that the wicked coloration runs hand in hand with organics, so hopefully I'll get some nice hues out of everything!

You guys can only see the labels and not all the extra shit I typed in under info, and you can always see the entire labels..
For example, a lot of the places you see "thorough H2O", for every 3 outta 4 times you see that it actually says "thorough h20 + AACT". The ingredient per are listed in the info tab once you click on the note.
But this is just a general idea of how I keep track :leaf:

Environmental scientist and vermiculture specialist Norman Aracon, PhD, from the University of Hawaii, points out that as long as the worm population remains healthy and active, the heavy metals the worms ingest remain contained inside the worms’ body tissue. When those worms die, other worms and microbes ingest the worm proteins so the toxins remain sequestered and aren’t released and taken up by plants.
Worms are amazing. It's really awe-inspiring that one of the lowliest creatures on the earth is so significant in helping to maintain the delicate balance that all creatures depend upon for survival. "From small things are great things brought to pass."






In vermicomposting systems used to process biosolids, such as human waste and sewage sludge from municipal waste-treatment plants, the residual worm castings typically pass EPA requirements for heavy metals and harmful pathogens. In other words, it appears that worms work as Mother Nature’s purification plants.

Thts some weird chit,I didnt know........:roll:

I keep my water in a big water cooler jug with an air pump and with two stones in it and I did get some ph strips like two weeks ago and been checkin ph since although I did not before that. I also had this little meter with three metal rods poking out the bottom and took no batteries that said it read ph, fertility of soil, and soil moisture that I have had for the two weeks also but it seemed like a piece of junk and has been reading that everything was fine, boy was it wrong, so I took it back and got more bulbs and some perlite. At what ratio should I add it to my soil when I transplant?? Should I prune off the dead leaves?? If so before or after transplanting??

I'm using MG potting soil and MG perlite as it is what I can cheaply and easily get because I have been working 60 hours week and live like an hour from wherfi work.I do live where there are a lot of farmers so with some shopping around with local shops I am hoping to go organic very soon, really when I have the time to go.
