General Hydroponics
NATURAL MIXED BRICK™
Organic Growing Media

The Natural “Mixed” Brick contains pith, fibers and coconut chips. This blend creates a more diverse and less compact growing medium for increased aeration and drainage.

I like it better than the Sunleaves brand I bought last time. The brick hydrated quickly and evenly. The mix is "just right" for netpots...

I wish I could help you man. I've never grown auto flowering plants, so I would have no idea how the two would compare.

But given my limited experience and knowledge, I would grow in a medium that allows for the biggest root ball possible. More Roots = More Buds!

In addition, More Light = More Buds!

I've often thought that if I was going to grow commercially, PPP would be the seed for me. It's very forgiving, yields great, and is a good smoke.
 
abnj what do u think of th floranova gro and bloom how concentrated is it?

Social, I use the GH Flora 3 - part nutrients, and unfortunately that's all I have ever used. I do like the 3 part system. GH's on-line calculator is very cool, and I don't think I use a quart of of the components during a 3 month 12 gallon E & F grow.

Sorry dude.
 
Had to swap out my new HPS bulb AGAIN because it would not fire up when the timer energized the ballast. I was worried this might happen, so I was ready and did a 5 minute lamp change-out at 2100. I'm having a talk with the lady at the Hydro store on Tuesday....

Took the trimmers to the lower sections of the plants. I cut the majority of branches that looked like they would not be producing, but I left any large fan leaves on the plants. It really opened up the undergrowth.

This angle is looking directly at the 600 watt from underneath the canopy after the haircut:

All four corners of the 2' x 4' tent are filled with buds. (Barely)

Canopy is still under control, but the canopy seems to be growing at all different rates. I'm still tucking fan leaves every day to stimulate bud growth.

A little rougher canopy:

Thanks for checking out my journal.
 
Rez check this morning was 1300 ppm / 2.6 eC at 5.8pH. Added 1 gallon of bubbled tap to top off levels. No measurable height changes, but the buds are filling in, and I think there's a little sugar landing on the buds. They've got 5 more weeks to fatten up......

Took some pics. Same as usual. Top, side, buds, etc....

That is all......
 
Beautiful update......... Think Im gonna try a different brand of coco. Similar to what you have if not that. I am looking for that "perfect for net pot" feel...... Oh well things keep on rolling no matter how stoned and lazy I am.........

Rez check this morning was 1300 ppm / 2.6 eC @ 5.8pH. Added 2 gallons of tap. Air temps ranged from 67F to 81F with the rez at 67F. RH is stable at 44%. Canopy is 38" above the hydroton, and the tallest cola is 42" tall

Its about to explode in here.........

You're like a 1000 miles away, and you can tell? LOL!

I just noticed this morning that the plants seem to have changed..... Can't exactly describe it, but I've noticed on other grows they start looking a little less "shiny" when they start making buds. I think they will really take off in the next 5 weeks of flower.
