I plan to sleep through the hottest part of today in a dark room with the swamp cooler on high with this guy:

What plant is that and what benefit does it have as a companion to cannabis?
I would think that it would be leaching nutrients from the soil.

nice you finished watering early and just lay low through the heat! yesterday i was able to do that…but today I'm slacking and really not looking forward to hand watering this afternoon.
fucking sucks when you have 2 whole irrigation systems just sitting at empty gardens, and the one garden still running is all hand water. fuckin NOT the business lol….took me 3.5 hours to water yesterday i need to get off my ass and fix this asap.

that is literally exactly what happened with the plant in that picture... when it was little the main stem was just a big leaf and 2 side stems became the main. such a weird mutation, ive never seen it before but that's cool that you have
yah i try to water just before sunset or else right at dawn. Thats when you get the best pictures
Right now it's not so bad, the plants only need water every 3-4 daystook you 3.5 hrs to water? how many pots of what size? At least you have the gear already to set up your drip. I still need to get everything and put it all together myself.
Feeding your plant little hairy rats? Is that how
You grow big plant
milky trust me your "opinion" i take as more fact and is greatly appreciated i try to incorporate your knowledge as much as possible. i did roll the ball with vf, but i think if i stay on top of things i can fix it. i have cal25 in the foliars at all times, with fulmag and cal boron as backups as well. i will look into those others you recommended as well.
bo- thanks for the breakdown, how big are your starts going in this late? i just got the last of my 400s planted last week so late start over here as well. fuckin blows because i was damn near ahead of schedule this time last month, we had things in early-mid may that were blowing up great! then we got served abatement notice and got setback at least 2-3 weeks. fucking assholes are worse than any pest, soil deficiency, laziness etc etc etc…
schrews - got 50 400s right now, i try to do a plant in 5 minutes with high flow hose. we already soaked the entire pots pretty good so right now its just a little dousing around the rootball area to keep them hydrated i want those roots to get thirsty and expand into the rest of the pot. my garden is a shitshow, i got some plants that are 4-5 ft tall and take 10 minutes to water, and got some others similar to yours that are smaller seed starts double potted that take way quicker maybe only 2-3 minutes to hit the rootball and then move on.

Do you guys have flow meters on your hoses and drip lines? They make many different models/sizes ect (ones that go on garden hoses and models that fit onto drip line), and can be a useful tool to get a semi accurate reading of your water usage.
i just get a 5gal bucket and see how long it takes to fill it with my hose. 4-5 gpm depending how far down the hillside i am.
not a bad idea for the drip lines tho

I just noticed the same thing happen to me. I never seen that happen before! Cool shit.
Bo...imo that is right. But on top of that the high K will also antagonize Mg. You can literally see it on yesprop's soil test. Even though base saturations of ca and mg are high enough the soluble numbers are not. So the plant will take up high K and low Ca and Mg.
The low Mg means nitrate will not convert to protein...so you end up with watery cells, lower brix, etc

would dolopril help with soil with high P ...got the same problem,thanks
