I'm useing a cheap hydro nute from my local agricultural coop, but have also seen similar at nurseries.
Works a bomb so far, no deficiencies to be seen.

Well, the 2 Bubblegum seeds I started at 12/12 almost a month ago still look like seedlings. That's either because my 90W UFO isn't sufficient to do 12/12 or because I have been unable to keep it close enough to the plants because of a taller plant in the same tent. Whichever it is, I doubt anything is going to come from them, but I'll let them go until they grow or die.

I did also just drop a LowRider2 auto in some soil a couple nights ago because they're supposed to finish within a couple months or so and I need to have my mature plants harvested before I go away in July. Anyone have any experience with that strain? I had to clip the top off of my Auto AK because it was getting too tall for my tent, so I hope that doesn't F it up too bad. That bitch still isn't flowering...maybe I got a dud seed or something.

When I get back at the end of July/beginning of August I'm going to do an experiment, so what is a journal exactly...just start a thread of my own and post my updates and shit or is there something special on this site where a journal is something more than that?

I don't know if anyone will be interested, but I'm going to just put one seed in each tent in a 2 Gallon Smartpot...probably with the same soil-less mix I'm using now since it seems to be working well. I'll probably use the Auto AK seeds in each pot since I have more of those, and I'll do everything exactly the same for each except one will be using one of my 90W 5-Band UFOs and one will be using a 150W HPS to see how they compare.

After that, I'll compare whichever works better to a comparable induction light, but now I'm getting ahead of myself.
They do that, then they get a growth spurt and they are 2ft high, of course not all strain work well. I learn more from a plant with problems. Hang in there and soonbongsmilie...rw

Hey money, A lot of guys use coco, but any decent soil will work. On nutes depend on grow medium, just half way through change to flower nutes. Sativa/ dom work well, Indica/dom work if grown in single cola style. I use a 400w hps I use when they are bigger and cfl's when they are small. I have veg three plant 10 days and the rest of the seeds are 12/12 from seed. The ones that vegged are little bigger than the ones that started 12/12 from seed. I had to super crop all:bigjoint: to keep the sativa/dom out of light, that 5.5 ft with pot.....rw

I was born in Germany, army brat. Can you order from amazon because they have almost everything, I'm in soil and I am using General Organics starter box, I notice a big difference. I was using Fox farms grow big and tiger bloom. Del, the guru of the 12/12 from seed thread, is in coco and uses bio-biz bio-grow and bio-biz bloom. Hesi tnt complex and bloom complex. Canna pk 13/14, coco a&b. Don't ask me to explain it. I would do something simpler...rw

One or the other. General Organics go box has everything, you could get 6 or 8 for start to finish. I think General Organics is better....:bigjoint:...rw

...chopped another...
...chopped down the black haze this morning..started to see mold developing on some of the bigger buds' leaves so i trimmed REALLY deep and a little wider in those areas, so hopefully i cut out all the mold affected parts...didnt save the trim from this one either, just in case there was unseen mold..i cough up enough shit already lol...wet and very trimmed weight was 347.6gm's..so im thinking around 3 Oz's dry?...

...the "Ice" i chopped about 4 days ago was dry enough to throw in mason jars aswell...took out the main cola part and re-weighed it..it was a little under half of the original wet weight it started at and just a little crispy/dry feeling on the outside...the stem bent all the way over cleanly, if that makes sense, snap a little teenie bit but didn't break...
View attachment 2126755

...so roughly 6 Oz's total dry expected from the 3 plants so far...more updates to come...
