Infinitesimal- That is hilarious lol. I love that movie, fond memories going to see it. It was the first R rated movie I sneaked into. Me and a few friends bought tickets to see a movie were Tim Allen was living in an amish community and we went to Half Baked. We actually smoked a one hitter in the theater and a few other cherries were being passed through the audience. Crazy kids smoking weed in the theater.....
Silver Hawaiian- Thank you!
Dawn Patrol- Thanks also, it really is alot of work keeping up and maintaining the thread let alone all my projects.
max 6699- Thank you for your support!
YesProp215- Thanks man still some time to go on them but they are doing great, really enjoying the mix. To have 6 so different and sometimes picky strains all doing so well in the mix says alot I think. I have ran across quite a few helpful post/threads of yours about the SFV. I get what you have said before, she could be ran commercially it seems she yields pretty good it looks like. Not huge but she lets the light through so well she nugs up all the way down and her stature isn't half bad. Thank you for your support it is appreciated.
supernuck- Glad you found us here. Read all the way through huh? I know how it is I get sucked into threads all the time here and do the same. Sometimes I read them 3-4 times. Living the dream literally here, only way to be. It was all a pipe dream one day in a 250 square foot studio apartment and a 400 watter and a gorilla grow, never looked back since.
Pseudo- Thank you for your support!
PD- Thank you and thank you! Looking forward to seeing your crosses!
the gnome- yeah man where have you been! Crowd surfing your flower room canopy? Good to see you!
BOG- thanks you sir very much coming from you it really brightens my day, you are my breeding hero and an all around great guy.
sneaky g- Thank you! I am glad this thread is helping people. A good organic mix really is a great starting point I have seen it time and time again now.
Alright IC don't you just hate when you type out a super long response and you somehow loose it all! I freaking do, I even copied the post but forgot and copied something else....
Anyways, thank you all seriosuly for your overwhelming support it feels good to have the approval of your peers in the work you are doing. Also the other nominees threads are great, some huge trees, huge buds, and huge threads. I have spent quite a bit of time following Jack's Aptus thread and it has me intrigued so I picked up the line myself and intend to do a side by side, more on that further down. Talk about sticker shock! I didn't know the total until I got to the register and even the store people noticed my schock which never happens, I always have big bills there.
I have a little update tonight for you.
Flip B is the OG/Chem room on day 58 and is looking stellar, shots coming of them soon and also some harvest shots starting in about 7-12 days.
Flip A is now the same OG/Chem cuts and is on day 8. On day 5 I started using the Aptus line of supplements. These 6 plants did get a better veg and a more timely transplant. They are in 10gallon smartpots.
The Katsu room is on day 19 and it is very very bushy in there. I have a shit ton of lolipopping/undercarriage cleanup to do this weekend, and alot more bamboos need to be going in. The plants got a little close to the OG hoods and got a little case of high metabolism, not really bleaching but getting there. 19" is to close! 28" seems to be the closest you want to run them. They are raised now and I hope it helped lessen the stretch a bit anyway because I slightly over vegged these, muhahaha. I will get some under carriage cleanup shots, it will be like 3-4 50gallon trashbags worth.
The Sour Bubble x SFV feminized project is going well. The SFV is stacking nuts and will start spewing soon. The sour bubble is ready to catch it. I will toss any extra pollen around, maybe katsu x SFV or any of ther ogs or chems.
The Sour Katsu f2 run and Katsu bubba kush bx1 is going well, pollen is forming dust clouds. I will take some pollen to the big room and selectively pollenate a couple fat nuggies to ensure a good yield of seeds.
In veg I am making some new moms, and rooting for the next 10K round is my selected cut of Bogglegum. It is the birthmarked grape bubbletape pheno, sometimes a hard to please cal/mg whore but I am going with it she is fast and desireable.
Also in veg is 6 sour bubble that will replace Flip B after harvest. They will be in 10 gallon smartpots. 3 will recieve my normal supplmentation and 3 will recieve the Aptus supplements by the feed schedule. All will be labeled and marked accordingly and rotated to give a fair shot. Since I have her dialed in it will be nice to see what if any difference it makes. A side by side!
Veg room all freshly sterilized and awaiting new babies, with the 6 sour bubbles that went into 10 gallon pots up front on the right:
Jam packed cloner, I have roots as of today at day 7:
Flip A: OG/Chem room day 6, one day after starting the Aptus feed schedule.
There goes the rent money! We are eating ramon noodles now that the plants are snacking on this lol:
The six sour bubbles now in 10g smartpots getting side by sided.
Alright going to try and get you some more shots tonight!

So your going to be giving aptus a go as well huh??? Definitely let me know what you think. I figure you have more than enough runs under your belt to know if aptus is going to make a difference or not. I'm tuned in buddy.
Will you be feeding with aptus on every feed or just once a week?

LEDNewbie- Yeah just want to give it a test if it works as well as it looks and sounds I will know. I am dialed in on the Sour B and know what to expect as far as yield, flavor, smell and all growth patterns so it will be a true test. I really am at a barrier right now I feel like so anything that gives me an edge I am exploring. Once a week sounds right I usually do one water and one supplement a week. I am going to follow their chart as long as the plants tolerate it.
The aptus was a total impulse buy I went in to get some EWC, the shop almost wrote me up an IOU because I was short. I got home and the side by side with Sour B dawned upon me, and so it begins. The Flip rooms 10g smartpots usually get a gallon and a half per watering so to make things real simple I will just mix each sides boosters in a 5gal pal.

He's going to use his awesome soil mix for the others:So your actually doing a side by side with aptus? What's the other side getting? What are you using for a base?
How many plants per side? Can't wait to se this grow unfold. Please keep things updatedhow many ounces do you typically yield per pant dry?
Its about $200 for 120gal or so for me, but PK buys in 800-1200gal allotments lol. I need to figure out where to store the 50# bags of bone/blood/kelp meal/azomite and greensand.. He normally pulls about 8oz from a 20gal IIRC, running in the big room vs the flip tents.
Am I reading that right, you water with about 1.5gal per 10g pot? How much per 20g, and how long do you let them dry out for? I am finding your soil mix isn't requiring much water at all and the girls def do not want more. Humidity is pretty low in my room right now, too. I'm seeing roughly 0.75gal/23gal pot every 4-5 days or so. With Roots soil in 5gals, they were drinking roughly 0.66gal in 2-3 days.
LEDNewbie- As Romulus stated they will get the soil mix as a base, and later I will list my supplements and feed schedule for the normal side. The other side gets the same soil mix and Aptus. I have been getting 9.7oz/plant or 1.5# per light. Overall yield would be higher if I could have more plant numbers but this is the average for 2.4 plants per ligth and those 2.4 plants being sour bubble.
Romulus- You really think it is that expensive? I have never even calculated the cost lol. Either way I am getting a half ounce per gallon so I can't complain much, hopefully I get that number higher though. Yes I water 1-1.5g per 10gallon pot. The 20g pots get 3-4g twice per week. Seems you have very low water useage .75g per pot every 4-5 days would kill my plants in a matter of days. I have a 5ton ac dehumdifying the room, Santa Fe max dry, and two LG 60 pint dehueys that all adds up to alot of dehumidfication.

This should be fun to see.....are you going to feed teas to the aptus side as well or only the nute line? I personally think top dressing, barley seed/alfalfa/kelp/comfrey teas and ACT's will beat the nute line. If the biology is there they have a better chance to enhance the rhizosphere vs the nutes in my humble opinion.
Also, don't know if you ever checked out http://www.drieaz.com but it's what I switched over to after two Sante Fe's took a shit on me. They are a grip no doubt, but very well built and perform so efficiently I just love em. Look forward to seeing the results of your trial man, keep it green.

amish Tim Allen? good Idea skipping that for Half Baked!
yeah good times... I remember the first time... me, Brian, kenny, Scarface and the lovable Old James... hold on wait a minute Old James wasn't there, I don't even know nobody named Old James shoot! LOL
I'd be interested in seeing you run strictly an enzyme to see how it works with your setup... that would be a good test!
Somoz- Yes I will feed with teas to the whole room, only EWC/Mollasses no other ingredients to keep things simple and even. Thanks for the good word on Drieaz I have heard of them and considered them as well.
Infinitesimal-man that cracked me up, took me a second had to read it twice lol. I plan on doing alot of side by sides in flip/flops and testing. The rooms were put up for seed testing, clone testing, medium/nutrient testing, headstash, increasing patient meds, and most of all my enjoyment. One flower room was boring me to death, now with 3 flower rooms and 2 little pollen chucking operations I am no longer bored.
I have a day 59 update on the OG/Chem Flip B. Everything is calling my name I don't know how I will ever pick my favorites, oh wait I will when I smoke them thangs! IDO I apologize your girl didn't make the shoot the camera memory was full I will get her updated tomorrow night. I throw alot of girls out, but everyone one of these girls have "it".
