So I believe I'm seeing Some growth on my 3 abused ladies. I'm seeing some new growth and the leaves don't look so pathetic. I've top dress and added compost tea again. Temperature averaging 74 to 76 degrees, humidy now is 55 % I added a humidifier, low humidity is not gona help my girls bounce back, light is dimmed 50% Critical Jack showing some positive signs, I blabbed that I hardly check my PH, not anymore, had to look close at every angle, and so now I own a PH meter!😄

Damn, close call! Good save.
I use an IR led strip to help clawing leaves distend after stress. If you have any heat therapy device that does not release too much red light it should help your plants recover a bit faster.

If you do a pour-thru and catch a small amount of run-off, you and test it and see how high the EC is.

Girls are still striving! After obviously overwatering, out the box and that's what happens, and over fed some, my first diary makes me think I need to keep doing stuff, when I need to stop it! Lol! I probably should have been ph ing my water, but I haven't had to forever, being cheap really, you really need to buy good stuff and calibrate it! And growing different strains make growing fun!

December 16th

Well, I planned to flip my Plants today. But I think I'm gonna wait another week. Only because I need a couple plants to get a little taller. I started my compost T with earthworm casting, rice hulls, a little of my Bloom Mix, a little of my soil mix, and I even added some banana skins , and 3tbls
black strap molasses, why not! I need to lollipops, try not to remove to many lesves, I never top, I rather lst, I enjoy that better than topping, current temp. Is 76° 49% humidity, when I finish my tea, I mix it 50 50 with fish tank water, just because, and PH, It.
I use to strip a lot of leaves, not any more, I think its better not too. Sometimes though you may have too a little more than you like. Especially when you grow different strain, which is the only way for me! If I have enough left over, I'm going to mulch with rice hulls and some straw maybe!

Merry Christmas and a happy grow year to every one! Today is Christmas morning, I bought my first bong since high school, I wish I still had them! I hope im in cruise control now, I had a rough beginning with this grow, anyways, I did my Usual compost mix but this time, I added my bloom mix. I also took rice hulls and worked into my soil. And then I decided to mulch with the rice hulls on my soil, I also gradually work the lights to 12 on 12 off. The Critical Jack I thought I was gona lose one, but they seem to have found themselves, I have pics before I put the under the scrog! And after. I'm a lil slow, but I get there!

Today is December 30th 1st week of flowering, and I'll be darn if I didn't find a dude amongst my darling ladies, snatched his ass on out a there with the swiftness, oh well it was a regular seed I was hoping!
Ortega, well I got them trellised which is a pain when your ass ain't as flexible as ya use be, that's my stretching exercises, I gots my tea brewing, trying to come up with a way to feed the plants in the back on top slowly, I think I got something cooking between these ears, I' ll share if it works! Temps hanging around 76 degrees 50%humidity drinking like crazy! Keeping the dreaded gnats down is a pain, but I been ahead of the game with them I feel. Well heres a pic of my girls, hard to tell what's what!

14 days on 12-12, just finished compost tea, added a little fish bone meal, I was feeding my plants with a turkey baster, well that got harder as they gre
w, so I found a idea on you tube and made it my way, and it works, that's the key, I like to mix my tea 50/50 with equal parts of areated tap water then ph it, after Ive brew it for 24 to 36 hours!
Temperature 76degrees Humidy is 49%. Lights at 50%. In my room.
