So i haven't been on in a while.. i was rockin hard for a bit then came the fking jackers goddamnit.. stupid fking partner couldnt keep his mouth shut.. atleast they came at the wrong time and didn't get a harvest.. got 8 1k ballasts, couple of 400w ballasts, CHHC1, R/O machine, Tri meter, spare ph meter, co2 bottle & regulator, xbox, unused unopened large bottles of FF.. Makes me so fking mad i cant even describe it. On the other hand, my paranoia level has gone down significantly and i can come on here and give you guys the skinny on HG. Anyway, that being said (sorry had to vent to someone), i have been doing side by side runs of HG and Canna. Very similiar results. I have settled on using the Canna line w/ Roots Excelurator throughout veg and rhizo through early flowering. i USED RO water before (now some fucker has my machine) and only supplemented with a little CalMag. Beautiful harvests. I was pulling in the range of 10-11.5 on 6 lights. 4 w/ querkle under them 2 w/ heavy duty fruity. HDF sucks btw, atleast the sativa pheno blows. My querkle was overripe in 9 weeks, and after 12.5 the HDF could have kept going. Shit takes like 2 weeks to start really flowering. I had the indica HDF pheno and threw it out early in my growing career, my logic being "why keep this one that grows so much slower?".. LOL, ignorance is bliss. Anyway, the results are in Canna is a superior product in my mind, just the boost is a little expensive. Roots Excelurator is the only product in the HG line that i have found that i just "HAVE TO HAVE". That and the Magic Green works pretty well too. I kept one plant of each of my genetics and have left them at a friends house neglected for a month. Just sprayed them w the magic green so i will post some results soon. P.S. ????CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME IF I NEED TO PH BALANCE MY FOLIAR SPRAY????
