As the title says, I picked up 10 Feminized OG Kush beans (Humboldt Seed Co.) from my local dispo & was wondering if there are things this strain prefers?
E.g.
Is it sensitive to feeding?
Will it take a manifold topping?
Is LST ok?
anything else you can think of.

Things that won't be changing on this grow:
Soil - FFOF simple, it works, and I like it.
4x4
5g fabric pots
Nutes - Veg & bloom suggestions welcome - FFOF is pretty amended already, so I lean on a KISS philosophy, but I'm always open to gaining knowledge.

I'm excited to get this one going!

my experience is that its a brute. Feed, water, keep tips 80 or so with humidity 60 to 70 in veg and 50 to 60 in flower and they are hard to fuck up. Mine weren't humbolt.... seedsman maybe. Pretty tough genetics tho.

I need that! lol
Thanks, planning to do a manifold topping & LST on them - debating between running 7 or 9 plants as well.
Hopefully popping beans in a couple days.

OG Kush will forever have a special place in my heart because it was the first named bud I ever saw that I actually believed was what it was advertised as, the person with it had just come from California back when it was the only legal state. Stuff would put my on my ass, I took to using the one hitter. Oh for those days, lol.

Never grown it but now I realize I absolutely must.

FFOF is to hot to plant seeds in I’d look at roots organic soil not as hot plus if your gonna be adding nutes you can do that yourself. Just my two cents.

Thanks! I was thinking on that - I have not disposed of my soil from the last grow yet.
Would it be a good idea to use the somewhat weaker soil from those pots to start my seedlings? I figure that most - but not all nutes will be spent, so not as hot. Then transplant to final 5g homes.

I'll look up Roots Organic.

No, dont do that. No way to know the nute levels. I just sprout in mineral wool and solo cup in happy frog without too many issues. Light warrior would be better tho.

That occured to me after I hit post and re-read --- no way to know soil levels (I don't have the tools or inclination atm), but I DO know that I ran this soil for 3 months and used bloom booster nutes............too many unknowns and variables for this noob. Back to the bag!

But I'm cheap - so I had to try! :P

Local hydro shop carries a few soils for us luddites; guess I'm shopping today.

I normally shoot for about 4 weeks but honestly I flip when I have just a little over half the vertical growing room left to account for stretch I’m growing in a tent with a 600 hps so I can only raise the light so high. I don’t really do anything by a set time I just watch the plants and use factors like how much room I have left. When to flip can be tricky for sure.
FFOF likely stunted your plants when they were small and set your veg back that happened to me a few times before I leaned I was like way do I have to veg so long haha.
