When do you P/K boost?

[Marz]

Lack of gardening philosophy. People just want to grow weed to get stoned and that's it.
Give the plants just what they need is a poor and sad line of thinking. It's like these slaughterhouses that offer animals only what they need to eat, pigs, poultry, cattle... this is very sad, one of the worst aspects of the consumer society we have to face.
I don't eat it, I won't smoke like this.

Food industry? What about the lightning industry? Seedbanks, do you believe?
Deeper u dive into cannabis industry, more 'scientific' lies were spreaded throughout the last years.

btw,
Bugbee is just another old cars salesman. Plenty of them out there.

This is gardening.

So you’d rather have Foie gras than free range beef?

Alright, didn't mean to start some fuss between members.
I want to see the dry buds that people are packing their bowls with now.

I’ll buy some different shit next time. Probably the shit that produces a ton of flavor because I see so much puffage that’s high in THC, or has a ton of color but it’s still just not enjoyable to smoke.

Like there’s people who smoke the cheapest pack of cigarettes they can buy cause it’s quantity over everything in their eyes. Then of course there’s people that still buy Benson and Hedges because they smoke less than a pack a day and don’t like the taste of the cheap cigarettes. This is plain and clear example of ethics.

People are so sensitive, this is why I had gone fishing at one point.
I’m back here cause I’m not some asshole who thinks there’s one way to live your fucking life and only listens to people who agree with me.

I don’t have money to go buy new shit.
I never PK boosted. I only have given my plant the gentle feeding ratio that I provided in a previous post.

It’s a split decision from people in IC mag and the people who show pictures presenting big grows say it’s a waste of time and money.
And I know you guys grow good bud that tastes perfectly fine.

Some guys are arguing here and quoting one another only to show your lack of respect for one another I don’t appreciate that shit, I think it’s unnecessary. Not why I’m here, it’s not to start arguments or to be a part of any arguing.

I am happy to learn here and to grow, can we focus on that meaningful and important part of this forum?

More clarity and less belligerence, whatever you guys are smoking. That shit ain’t doing the job!!!!

Belligerence? I'm not sure about that one. Who's the breeder? It sounds like a UK clone only

I have been using a low dose of pk13/14 week 3-7 recommended to me by a well known an respected member. 2ml per gallon. Taste an smell are just as intense, no difference in potency. The only difference I've gotten is larger an fuller buds. I won't get into the science of it because I honestly don't know enough to have an educated answer scientifically speak. I can only speak to my results. For what it's worth, here's what I run

Wk 1-7/8
Canna A & B 15-20ml each per gal
Cannazym 10ml gal

Wk 3-7
Boost 10ml gal
Pk13/14 2ml gal

Wk 8/9-10/11
Fade 10ml
Cannazym 10ml

Rhizo after transplanting at 15ml gal and 7.5ml gal thru wk 7

@Old Uncle Ben

This is a chain. Can you please teach me how to diagnose and fix these issues. Your knowledge and experience with a wide variety of strains is deep.

@cfl...KING
2ml of 13/14 per gallon, is an increase of 30/60ppm. A&B comes in around 60P and I forget K, but around 180iirc. If we are talking coco.
I mention it, as 60P wasn't exactly low. Do you get hairs browning by 25 days, with advancement you would like to be slower?

Now that you say that plants do seem to finish a few days sooner. My Cc#1 use to be 65days an now I can take it at 60-61days. I thought it was due to going from 600w lights to 1kw lights.

This looks more like over/under water mixed with a pH issue

9l today. Checked on it just before dark. Showed that it needs a drink, leaves were dropping. I should have taken a pic, I was just so surprised, then timer clicked so I gave it I guess a liter of dehumidifier water real quick, dumped the dehumidifier outside and wrapped it up fur the night.

This morning I just thought… “ I’m going to have to start watering this thing twice a day”

 

[cfl...KING]

What was the pH?

 

[I Care]

No clue, I couldn’t find strips anywhere and the only way I’m getting a meter is if Santa brings me one.

I really need to pop that back open and give it some ground water. Gonna turn all the lights off in the house after I smoke a cig on the porch and unwrap it.

 

[cfl...KING]

You can get a cheap pH meter for like 10-15$ on Amazon

ouch

 

[I Care]

i know, I should have ordered strips months ago too.

ouch

i know, I’m lucky to have the knowledge of how to save it. so i still have something to work with.

 

[I Care]

I saved it with the ground water here and transplanting into the current 2100c pot with the last bit of the bag of strawberry fields. It’s part of this girls whole story.

I'm just fishing for clues myself, with that question. A few days seems reasonable. I have a PK issue I can't pinpoint, but one of them burns the hairs early, and I'm leaning towards P.


Canadian guy just spent about 75 cents on a pH and EC meter twin pack. They are really very cheap. It's a long boat ride though. It's about $1.50 to the states, in more like 10 days

 

[I Care]

Im really convinced on my N theory.
The thread has totally been beneficial in developing a diagnosis.

 

[Ca++]

I'm really not sure on your N ideas. N levels give a plant a good idea of soil fertility. It should be part of plant steering. My current work is towards high N, and my last soil-less run was up there at 200ppm N, like many studies show. IIRC you are around 50ppm.

You really need some meters. Badly.
This is 99cents. it will arrive in 11 days, or you get given a dollar.

I bet it's $40 on Amazon, but you will need some calibration solutions from somewhere.

Edit: Oh.. rip off Britain, it's a fiver.
There are many others, to find one cheaper

 

[I Care]

Alright alright.
It has a place for a lanyard. They use in Pho. SOLD
It comes with the calibration solutions.
*It’s 8.40USD. If you want backlit meter to go with the probe*
