Thanks man, but I see it as a 3 level growing ;)

I though I wouldnt have to touch them anymore but tent got overgrown and I had to pluck some leaves again as it was limiting an airflow. Some bottom leaves started going yellow so I've upped the feed to EC -1.7

Day 24 of flower.

Still trying to figure out if bactorr does anything for weed. But i can attest that salad, basil and tomatos frigging loves it.

@T-Time still such a cool lil grow. what do you average out of that space?

Still trying to figure out if bactorr does anything
ah really? still using mine... placebo maybe...

Testing out the Ecothrive Coco next run instead of Canna Coco so i'm not gonna add anything.

Really want some Tribus, anyone here tried it?

Also really wanna try the Elite 91 cloning gel/whatever it is. looks ridiculous, some guy managed to get a fan leaf to root in like 7-9 days lolol - check it out

Around ~1100/1200g from seed at the moment, so theres potential there once I switch to clones. Can't complan as its essentially a 2,5x5ft tent, I just use it the "wrong way" ;) . I have to install trellis as menaging so many flopy dicks is really annoying. Plants naturally strech towards the light and with the side lighting they just flop in the last few weeks of bulking. Cause theres only around 30cm of room between the light and the plants, some getting burned . Really time consuming work which can be simplified. I've already bought some fixture that will fit just right, so next round will be a bit more tidy.
I've just changed my drippers from 4x4L/h per plant to 1x4L/h + 3x2L/h so I could feed them more often. As always, there is always room for improvement. In this particular setup , theres some limitations that require a bit of thinkering to overcome but I'm slowly getting there. My goal is 1500g out of that space when I'll get a healthy mother.

Whats so different about that Ecothrive coco?
As for the Tribus, I think I'll stick to TNT MycorrMax stuff. I only add it when repotting and i dont have to worry about it for the rest of the grow. Simple.

Elite91 - will look into this. Never heard about them, but I wouldnt believe everything I see on the internet and that would be one of those things.

And heres the new trellis I've bought this week.

Cheap, light, adjustable in size and with big oppenings, so should fit perfectly. I would rather use a rigid wire mesh but it was hard to source and would be harder to transport.

What did you feel it changed
im not sure...when everything is happy i think it must be working...bro science! but ive had what looks like potassium deficiency, which i thought was burn and im doubting everything...i think it may have been a ph issue though.

1100/1200g
Thats quite a lot man, 1500 would be bloody lovely! That trellis should help your floppy dilemma.
Hmm not sure what the difference will be between canna coco and the ecothrive cause the canna is also charged...ive just noticed a lot of peeps really loving the ecothrive on insta so thought id give it a whirl as it was in my local hydro shop.

Yea elite 9 looks pretty good, i mean you can root clones in water but the results look pretty crazy with elite 9 - some mad roots.
but I wouldnt believe everything I see on the internet and that would be one of those things.
fair nuff! looks legit to me

Were looking at floraflex dry nutrients, they say its more or less as that captain capts 321 stuff but with even better ph stability. Also available in euro. But im leary of buying more stuff as my growbuddy still havent even tried megacrop.

floraflex dry nutrients
Greengenes has listed their numbers and apparently its lacking - he had some pretty public beef with them on insta a few weeks ago. Id also like to try Jacks but cant find it. im happy with Megacrop...its also on amazon these days which makes it real easy. What do you use now?

The Canna guys are on GrowTube next week. i watched lastweeks yesterday and they all had a good chat about Mammoth, Tribus and the contents of a few different bases - was interesting. Looking forward to the Canna chat

Canna line, amino, hormones, canna boost, mycorriza, tricoderma and bactorr, but my mate havent really incorporated it completely.

Nutes are my mates responsibility, he goes by what his hydro shop tells him. I got him some megacrop but he hasnt really touched it, too afraid to mess things up the last few cycles as were alresdy mixing up with lights and environment.

Im also looking at a product called calcium-25, foliar with calcium and what most people say is triaconatol. Some swear by it but its only US

Im not too hang up about the numbers. Quality first, quantity will come when everything is dialled in.

Canna Coco Profesional+ is charged but You can get standard coco from them as well that doesnt contain any nutrients. Just saying.

As for elite91 - wawawiwa , thats some expensive bottle. It better does what what it does! Try it and give us some feedback. I still have a bottle of Rootiit gel so wont be trying that one out.

Day 39 of flower.
Found some rotten buds today :/
Inspected the whole tent, every bud, one by one and cut some of them out. They suppose to be going for another week, so I had to take some preventive measures to lower the RH. I cut all the fan leaves out and increased ventilation. If more of them will pop out, I'll have to harvest earlied. Damnit :(

you might want to design a air flow system for this bro. Like a exhaust fan hooked to some PVC piping with drilled holes to shoot air from bottom to top along the back side, just to get air movement behind the trellis.

Ahhh well, I guess theres allways some obstacles when trying new things.
I really like Your idea! I even have around 4 or 5 meters of 4-5" pipe lying around that would be ideal for this. I'll think about it. One thing is that standard fans are not made to push the air and they wouldnt be ideal for it. Likely I have one spare 6" tdsilent inline fan that could do the job. I'll try to remedy that with simple steps first rather then doing complicated air ventilation system. Even if that would be simple enough to do.
I fecktup with routing the ventilation through the veg tent with too small ducting. That was causing too much negative pressure in flowering tent and not allowing for correct air flow. Big tent walls were always fully callapsed. I've noticed, but didnt thought about potential problems :/ . Second thing was menaging the canopy. Whenever this round will be finished I'll connect both tents with 6" ducting, which will require cutting the veg tent as it only allows max for 125mm ducting. Trellis is already waiting for the second part of the fix.
If that wont do I'll give Your idea a go. Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it :)
