moonshine mix

HighonthePrize

Hello all. I currently have 4 Double Kush and 1 djs Blueberry that have been veggin for 3 1/2 months. I started 15 seeds in paper towels: 5 BB, 5 DK, and 5 LUI freebies. Of these, 4 DK, 3 BB and 3 LUI popped. They were moved into light warrior 16oz cups. The LUIs and 1 BB never made it through the soil. The remaining plants did very well for the first few weeks of life, despite temps getting into the 90's. I transplanted into 1gal pots of MSM at about 3 weeks, with the exception of 1 BB that was VERY small(which I ended up culling). All seemed to really take off and were doing well for about 1 week. these pics are at about two months. At this point I believe I had been overwatering(every 3 days) and all were infested badly with spider mites.










It took me awhile, but I finally got rid of the mites with neem oil, although I still did not realize I was overwatering till about 3 weeks ago when I bought a moisture and ph meter.(before this I had just been ph-ing RO water to about 6. now it has been 9 days since watering and 9 days before that. Do these pics look like lockout due to my overwatering? How long will it take them to rebound? 3 of the DK seem to be stunted and have stopped branching at all.

may have been answered already but which black gold product are you calling for in this mix? Could I use the cocoblend and leave out the bricks?

Im starting to get a small deficiency, not exactly sure what it is yet. I'll get some pics during lights on tomorrow, but its some small slightly yellowish spots, as well as the fan leaf stem turning purple. Maybe i watered too frequently? Plants have been looking great so far though, no probelms at all, i think i might have watered too soon on this last watering. I'll check my logs.

If there isnt an overwater problem, can i water this mix with a little EJ microblast or some epsom salts?

I always get a good laugh when I see someone names their mix as if they had a patent or something]

Bump for a great recipe
tried and true!
Your 100% right about that! Thanks for the 411.....any pics or tips you got feel free to share!

On the other hand..........I have decieded not to flower with the mix I vegged in anymore. From now on I transplant ALL ladies from a msmix/veg to a flower mix and a bigger pot. I have noticed they take off a lot faster and heartier. No more adding and changing this concept around! Hope this helps!

Hey Mysta! Wut up bro? When you do your transplant from veg to flwer what do you do different to the mix for flower? I know that the last time I did this mix for flower the only thing I did diff was add the Fox Farm POM F&F. And you? nuggler

I just use the 3 bag for veg then transplant into flower with the POM and starter mix along with a bigger pot. Im just not veg with the same soil I flower with.

Hey Ray Dogg, clones dont have that many roots to uptake alot of water at first, just remember you want your mix moist and airy, not water logged and not be able to get oxygen to the roots. I have the same setup you do, and I like to use 1/2 gallon grow bags and then transplant in 3 gal. square pots. I think 1 gallon pots make it harder to transplant. Good Luck and May The Force Be With YOU!

I've got roughly 5 sq.ft. of floor space and like 3 ft of height total. I think I'm gonna start seedlings in beer cups, xplant to 1/2 gal bags and top when recovered, then xplant to 2-3 gal bags for flower. Assuming I have 4-6 plants I'd probably have enough for 2 runs if I only buy the minimum of everything (1 bag, 1 box, etc), right? Do I have the order right as far as topping vs. transplanting?

Fox Farm Peace of mind the light blue colored box in the back


Yea BOG was..........lets says feeling kinda good...lol. I dealt mostly with Mrs.BOG. That is one of the nicest ladyz I meet in a long time. She hooked mr up with the best he has....SB BX 4. She also said there are alot of "fakes" going around exp the BX3 and BX4. She said they havnt done beans for years....and that the only way to get them is like how I did. Anyhow Im lucky to get the real deal. I also meet Eddy Lepp.....nice ass person.

Regarding the watering issue. Would it be detrimental to an early plant's health down the road if you allowed it to wilt in order to establish a watering schedule that's a couple of days before "wilting point"?
