What's going on Dirty Nerd. Hope all is well. Love the blue dream.
I was wondering if you check your runoff often?
Hey bro been good thanks for asking how about yourself... haven't seen you around much yeah i check my run off every 2nd feed had to many problems so now its a habit i find if you don't check at lease once a week by the time you start seeing something wrong with your plant your already to late and its going to slow her down and not be the best she can be now with the recirculating system its a lot easier

I got so aggravated on here with the rudeness that I just quit getting on. But I was curious if reddiamond Was cranking up anything and now I'm looking around at others grows. Glad I came across yours. That runoff is tricky. I stuck with a method for a while and it worked great but I started doing other methods to see what would happen and it's amazing what the smallest changes can do. My newest edition has been a Humate acid and it's really changed up some things. Wish I had knew about it sooner. So many advantages using it. I could go on and on but I'll not, lol.
I'm gonna follow you now and enjoy the ride. Love watching fellow coco growers

bongsmilie Awesome bro yeah there are soo soo many smart asses on the forum but they normally don't last to long but also some very good people @reddiamond need to come back i miss watching him grow but after the house got robbed he might of just wanted to let things cool off a bit humate acid hey...? good stuff.. i take it ...? yeah i enjoy growing in coco as that's all i knew now i am trying this 100 perlite and liking what i see but if i stuff up its less forgiving then coco so only time will tell plants can take a lot in veg but in flower they can be a little touchy and this one i have in flower at the moment was shit last run but only because it got a Calcium Deficiency as i changed over to RO water glad to have you along for the ride feel free to post anything your growing at the moment always like watching others grow :weed:

Your right man, there's some bad with the good, lol. I'm just gonna stick around the good lol.
Yea I can't wait to see @reddiamond back in the grow room.
I've got a bunch of strains going now. I need to do a journal too but I'm just so busy. I'm gonna see if I can squeeze one in. Right now I'm testing some new ones and running my regs. This Eva's white dragon is whipping my ass! Pineapple chunk, cookies and kush, Ak48, Papaya, Wonder Woman, strawberry blue, sensi star, Incredible bulk, Thc bomb, critical, northern lights and afghan x big bud are doing good. The pineapple chunk and cookies and kush are iffy but I'm seeing some good phenos I might do a second run with.
I'm scared of the RO! Everything I've read on here people using it with Canna having some sort of troubles at one point.
I'm definitely curious with the perlite project. id like to do that myself.
Yea that Humate acid works so well with silica. I don't have to use as much Ph down and I've even cut back on my A&B. I guess it's helping with nutrient uptake so I'm not having to use so much of it. I was using Diamond Nectar and it was good and I seen a difference off the bat but then I switched over to Humbodlt Flavorful and it's much more powerful. I'm gonna find that information for you and let you see the benefits of it.

Sounds awesome Yeah the canna is good but at the same time the A&B are super salty and if you get lazy and don't flush or get a good run off your going to run in to trouble for sure thinking i might change up on the next run and use the cyco i have and see what's up with that i hear nothing but good things about the CYCO XL in veg so might be worth a try i spent $220 on the pro kit and never used it as i have to much canna stuff

I did a pineapple before had two phenotypes one good and one shit

Hope you don't mind the long post bomb but I found it.
Copied and pasted.
While clicking through the fertilizer section on Sunlightsupply.com you might notice the vast array of products a grower has to choose from. The reality is, though, that selecting a fertilizer is just one of the many choices a grower must make. I cannot stress enough to novice growers the importance of a complete nutrient feeding program. While a complete base nutrient fertilizer provides everything a plant must have to live, fertilizer supplements allow your plants to go beyond simply surviving and encourage them to thrive; fully maximizing their genetic potential. There are several supplements that are engineered to improve plant performance by accelerating nutrient uptake, boosting blossom production, protecting and increasing the plant's root system, or modifying a plant's growth habit. Humic acid and Fulvic acid are two related supplements that can boost a plant's performance by improving nutrient absorption while simultaneously improving the soilstructure.

Humic acid is derived from the organic components of soil, humus, peat and coal. It is a byproduct of microorganisms that break down dead organic matter. Humic acid is actually a complex mixture of many different organic acids formed during the biodegradation of organic material. Fulvic acids are humic acids of lower molecular weight that have higher oxygen content. Fulvic acid is able to pass through plant cell membranes easily, which is how it is able to aid in the absorption of plant nutrients.

Again, I apologize for the post bomb. I guess I get excited when I've found something that actually works and I want to share it with everyone, lol. I'm gonna read your pineapple chunk/ jack herrer thread tomorrow. Gotta hit the hay and start a long grueling day. Can't wait to see more pics man. And good luck on the perlite project. You know what, I believe I will do a journal. What the hell, lol.

I hope you don't have to use the pgr to keep her from stretching too much. Nothing wrong with it just rather you not have to use it to tame her lol. She's gonna have some big huge buds man I swear I'm starting my beast soon. It's come down to GG#4 and Platinum Delights. I think it will be Platinum Delights since I know her so well. Keep up the great work bro. Can't wait to that girl start putting out
