haha random question I know..

Searched everywhere, but does anyone know what nutrients this guy uses? I would really like to know.

I read in a thread somewhere that his one-month old plants in veg were 3 ft tall.

How the hell? In one month from seed I can only get 12 inch. Maybe 15 inch, not sure cus I just switched to coco.

Though obviously he's using clones, but can anyone else here pull it off?

edit: nvm found my answer while diggin through an old thread.

usually use Canna, Ionic or Vitalink, there shouldn't be any real need for boosters or flower enhancers they are only any use if your grow is deficient in nutrients for some reason. If you want to use a booster use something like PK 13/14 as its very cheap and could be used as a belt and braces approach if you feel that your grow might be lacking something. Otherwise the standard nutrients should be more than good enough.

Here he grows 2, 6ft trees with 3x 600w:

and supposedly he's the only person to break 2g/watt. The guy doesn't even use C02.

Oh yea he's a breeder too I think he released seeds on breedbay

Getting a plant to 3 feet in a month has been something Ive been able to do since my first grow. Proper drainage holes and a good soil mixture is in order.

Promix BX is what I use.
Botanicare nutrients.
Tap water, not ph'd ec'd etc...

I had 2-3 footers grown in just over a month, in just over 1 litre of soilless (promix bx). One 430 watt son agro (pulsing blue spectrum for veg).

Don't see how you do it with tap water without checking ph.. I got lazy and started using tap, plants were frozen in time for 2-3 weeks but stayed green. Later found out ph of my tap was 8.

Were your plants stretched or no? And 3ft in veg right?

btw I just switched to CNS-17 for coco.. what about you?


From what I've read seems like you need a fast recirculating system to achieve this kind of yield in such a short amount of time.

My tapwater is a steady 7ish. The Pure blend pro soil bloom I use lowers ph to about 6.5-5.8 depending on what else im adding in there.
Yes they were 3 feet plus at 34 days I believe, with no stretch on the great white shark and minimal stretching on the cheese. Just about to go into flower.

Sorry the last pic is an older pic, stargazer from delta 9 labs. That is at about a month as well tough.
2nd is gws and 3rd is cheese.

I am not familiar with that botanicare line :S

I vegged my current plants for a week and switch to 12/12 in with in 2 weeks they were 5 footers, some even over 5 feet.
they trippled in size, ( i had to supercrop them due to height of my tent.)

dam.. I find that so hard to believe. Do you start with clones, if so how tall are the clones?

I've tried growing in straight FFOF, and in one month my plants are only 12-15 inch. I even have them outdoors for 2/3 the light cycle. Then again, I did top/ FIM them, but they don't even look as bush as yours at 1 month. wtf.

I think perhaps I wasn't feeding them enough.

Switched to coco now so I'll see how it goes.. I guess i'll leave some untopped for comparison

i started with clones,

i had 1 super critical haze seed, i vegged it for a month and cut 16 clones off it, (clones 4 - 5 inches) once they were rooted i put them under the 600 and vegged for week then switch to flower and BAM! i fucken 5 foot plants in the first 2 weeks of flower.

check my journal,

i have another strain thats the exact same age as the big ones and they were half the size as my Critical Hazes.

Critical haze is known for stretching like that thoe, i just was not expecting that much
