ya imnot into the expensive shit any more. i like a ll in 1 nute as well so i dont have to mix up a bunch of shit.
the best nutes i have used indoors is got to be flora nova grow and bloom about 20 bucks a liter, no need for any other supplements. the only thing is it is a synthetic nute and i want to go all organic now.

I've tried keeping mine all organic as well, I'm a big fan of that earthy taste :weed: I'm gonna miss growing Sharksbreath, even at a week early and plagued by mites she still has that sweet taste when you exhale. Hopefully my third one will be my best one, she's also my last

I might just stick to Gravity, Snowstorm and Sugaree with CNS-17 as a base depending on my next yield. I still have a lot of Sugaree and CNS-17 left. I'd only have to buy the $30 Gravity and $10 Snowstorm. They've been real easy to work with so far and the 4 strains I have left could probably take more than the 1/4 dosage I've been giving them.

I had no idea gravity wasn't. I'm still using everything I got in that bulk deal a few months ago. I've been looking at aeroponic systems too, just to try something different but probably not till winter when temps can be more manageable. I'm not a big fan of hydro but id like to at least try it some day

i am pretty sure only the big bloom is the only organic one, and the new 3 that came out are as well. as for the others they are synthetic

im not a hydro fan either seems to me like more works and money to put into it for really just a small increase in veg time.
i however did make a small bubble cloner just to see how it works out and improves my cloning skills

Im doing a test DWC out of a coffee pot. It really isnt that bad, well at least in the early stages. I always wanted to try it to compare and thats what I am doing now.
@ Baja start small like I am and it will give you an idea. Give it a shot it might be your calling, you never know.

Peace

Bubble cloners are easy to work with, just gotta keep the water temps low. I need to clean mine or get a new tub with more sites


Here are a few random pics I took last night of the flower tent:

looking really good baja.
what temps do you keep your bubble cloner at?
mine was at 70 but then i researched it and it seems 80 is the ideal temp.

Lately the veg tent has been keeping steady between 79 to 86 but I'm yet to check the actual water temps in the cloner, as long as it can stay in the low 80's I've been able to get roots within 14 days, the cooler it stays the better. I've transplanted a clone within 10 days, but that may have been strain related. The Acapulco Golds cloned the easiest so far

Your Jack is very impressive. She will be an animal soon. So you are dropping the JH too for good?

That JH in my flower tent is the last one, you're the only one that has that strain now

Hopefully this Casey Jones will be a permanent replacement :leaf:

Yesterday I decided to make some more butter. I think I figured out what we did wrong the last 2 times, my wife's cousin was probably setting the crock pot on high to warm it up quicker then setting it to warm, that explains why the 2 times he did it I saw it boiling. Last night around 7pm I started a new batch and let the crock pot warm up on it's own, damn near took forever for the butter bricks to start melting but this morning when I screened out the butter I noticed at least twice as much as before. Here are some pics. I think I used about 1.8 oz, mostly buds from WR#1 and AKS#2 and just over a pound of butter.

I used 3/4 of a cup of butter for this batch of cake mix. I'm making 2 small cakes and 12 cup cakes :weed:

I've been a bit confused lately. My temps have all been down and stayed consistently in the high 70's low 80's in my flower tent but I've been watering more often. WTF? I thought with cooler temps I'd be watering less? It used to be I could go up to 4 or 5 days without watering a plant in my flower room but now it seems they need to be fed almost every 2 days.

The only thing I can think of is maybe more root growth? Especially the Pineapple Express #3, it towers every other plant in there which is odd because the last 2 didn't stretch nearly as much

I think better temps is promoting more overall growth, which in turn is causing the plant to go through more water and nutrients.

I've been experimenting with no flushing. The last few feedings have been: Nute + Nute + PB Bloom + Nute + Nute + PB Bloom, etc. No flushing except when I transplanted. They all seem to be taking it just fine, no nute burn or anything. They are eating like crazy. Not to mention they are all in smart pots so maybe I'm not giving them enough water with every feeding? I'm used to giving them about 3 cups per 3 gallons and that would last them up to 4 days, now they are taking about 3 cups every 2 days, should I just give them more water per feeding or keep feeding them less and more often?

1 cup per gallon seems like not enough water IMO. You could get away with feeding alot more than that, which may be why you are feeding more often. Sounds like they are thirsty.
