AllDayToker's Adventure of Greener Living - HPS Perpetual Closet Grow

Youre feeding in a "normal way" ..... Not hammering em w tripple doses of bloom food?......

I look at em I see calcium magnesium phosphorus and potassium defs ....... But I see shiny green in spots toward the top....

Yeah didn't change anything then I normally would. If anything I'm feeding them less because I figured the FFOF would be pretty full for a while at least. When I have fed it has only been teas using just worm castings and molasses. Nothing crazy.
 
You don't wanna take too big a swing at it but kelp meal alone won't be enough.......what else ya got?...

Probably need to dry up a little first

I got the two bat guanos and the seabird guano, but I haven't used them for years. I have alfalfa meal, bone meal, dolomite lime, vermicompost that's coco based, the worm castings, peatmoss, pretty much it for now. I have some bottled stuff I have not used for years as well, like liquid karma, maxicrop, fish E.
 
Seven or eight pellets of psg two teaspoons of the maxicrop a cup of castings...... Five gallon bucket

I wouldn't bother w molasses or air

Alright thanks a lot. I'll do that for the next feed.

So no molasses or bubbling. So should I let it sit for a few hours or anything? Stir it up a bit or something?
 
Let it sit overnight ...... Stir before you use it anyhow

I believe that will get ya in the right direction w what you got.... I've fed mine the same plenty of times

Great! Again thanks a lot. I really appreciate giving me some of your time. These plants have been giving me a hell of a time. Woof haha.

I know right, I feel awful.

Didnt do anything different then previous grows besides using FFOF for soil instead of my old ROLS mix.

Any thoughts on stopping all this crap so I can get some usable product to last me till next harvest?

Hey brother! I would say that soil is too rich, probably way too high in N. Did you get it resolved yet? I apologize for not reading the rest before posting, I could have sworn I replied to that..I've had so much going on I guess I forgot. My total bad..

how you doing? Ready for the holidays? We're trying over here, just got the tree up last weekend. By the way....

Guess who's growing again? :D

These are progression shots. The top one is supposed to be sideways..weird..lol

:bigjoint: :peace: :bigjoint:

oh snap, forgot to say those are GDP/Green Crack crosses I got from a good friend. They are already smelling it up in the closet :)

Glad to see you growing again. Hope that GDPxGreenCrack isn't one of Danks shit creations.

Holidays kind of snuck up on me but I'm ready for them. The holidays always make me feel good.

The soil stuff never got straightened out, and most of my plants are now finishing early. Oh well. Lesson learned, going back to my own soil mix. Going to get back to my "roots" so to speak and do what I was doing when I was doing it good.

What kind of lights you growing under?
 
Well first plant to come down out of this wacky round and new strains. 54 days from flip. Very short veg time, 1g pot from start to finish. Only hit about 16" tall. Very sweet smelling and sticky, nice fat dense buds for the plant. Estimating maybe a half oz. Great plant over all. Thinking about attempting to reveg this one because I'd love to see this in a 10g pot with a big ole trunk on it.

For gods sake man..HELL NO..lmfao!!! A buddy from here, he grows but doesn't show his stuff on the forum.;) He seems to be a pretty good grower, if (but only if) he gives me permission I'll show you a pic of his finished product, These are F2s so time will tell!. So far, so good though:)

Christmas always makes me feel good! Even with losing mama,..she's not suffering anymore and she's back with my dad. That makes me :)

Yeah, that FFOF isn't the best idea for mj. You know the old saying, if it ain't broke, don't fix it..definitely stick with what you know works. It's cool to experiment with new stuff just keep it to maybe two plants next time, that way you don't blow your whole grow if it doesn't pan out

We've got them under a T5 right now but we're ordering a ballast this weekend if we can't find one local we like. I'm pretty stoked, this will be my first experience growing under HPS! :mrgreen:

Looks like they turned out okay!! I would definitely reveg that bitch in a 10 gallon pot with some of your good stuff (soil) bet you'll be glad you did. Knock that N down when you get about two weeks from flowering too, they don't need it after that point and it just takes away from the flowers. What lights are you running again? I bet you could pull over half pound on that girl :)

Well that's awesome. Yeah would defiantly love to see some finish pics of the genetics you got going. You can always pm me if he doesn't want them up on a thread.

Yeah I've always had success with FFOF, wasn't necessarily trying a new thing. Just figured it work better then my mix, which was FFOF to begin with after a year or two of reusing and reamdening ect. After this happened, and hearing it has happened to a lot of people that used FFOF, Im not using it anymore. I have boughten a large 30g+ tote that is full of my old soil, leaves and stems, vermicompost. Just cooking it up and should be ready for the new ones to flower and new babies for veg.

T5 will do for now but will defiantly want to get that HPS going for flower at least. Yeah you'll be amazed with what those HPSs can do.

This was actually my first run that I did with my new light. I replaced my 600w HPS and my 384w Apollo Purple Sun LED fixture with my custom made one.

The custom one was made for the specific dimensions of my growing area, which is 6 1/2' x 2'. It covers it perfectly. I didn't really get to see it "shine" so to speak, since my plants did so poorly. But I expect to get a GPW easily when I'm running smooth.

For 8 COBs ran at 1400mA gives me 50w's a piece. I basically cut my electricy use for flowering in half, got a better, more even spread of light, they put out the same if not better lumens, they are not as rough on the plant.
