    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    Thanks so much for the reply. The plants are small. I swap to 12/12 when the girls are about to my knee. At this point they're 32" tall. They're in stretch, though we know with NFTG they dont stretch much. After adding Chimera I put an inch of potting soil (not amended, just Happy Frog) over...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    So I chopped my girls in the attic. I got everything wrong I could get wrong but its still my favorite hobby by far. PH issues.... I have another few girls in a controlled environment and am closely monitoring their soil PH, they are 18 days into flower. They are in 3 gallon plastic pots. I use...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    So what I wonder is... if elevated PPM results in a low PH then any time Im really pushing a plant I should be PH'ing it high because I know the PPM load is gonna drag down the PH, yes? For example in week 3 of flowering (using Fox Farm Potting Soil) it is recommended to double then triple Herc...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    No im not counting germination. It popped its head on August 31, 2021. I chopped it a week or so back. NFTG for me at least slows everything down. It generally takes a while for a plant to take to the nute line and while I used to flip a plant at a month its now 6 weeks to two months before the...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    Last slurries (yesterday) were 6.2 -6.3 with 300-600PPM among the 4 pots (I fed HH and Gaia at 7.3 hoping to bring the PH up) I dosed them with Photo-Plus the feeding before so that certainly will account for some part of the numbers. I use a Volt FL-1 LED 3 Gallon Nursery plastic pot Temps...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    Ive had success with NFTG. I want to point out Im not bashing the line, just having difficulties. A couple respectable White Widows, some GDP and even an Obama Kush have worked out well previously. with the NFTG line. They were mostly on the small-ish side, which is fine with me as Im an older...

    NFTG. Nectar For The Gods

    Hello all, Ive been using NFTG for 9 months now with mixed results. I really like the potential of the line but keeping a reliable PH in the soil has proved nearly impossible for me. I run something between the Greek and Roman regimen. I am running 4 feminized Purple Rock Candy's from Nukeheads...

    Bad experience with commercial seeds doing the hermie

    I base my judgement on the fact that I had grown with exactly the same setup a few times before. In fact most of the seeds Ive purchased were from ILGM. This was just one instance but Ive read of others lately. Anecdotal to be sure but if I cant rely on White Widow to not be squirrely I think...

    Bad experience with commercial seeds doing the hermie

    Thanks for the suggestions, I really appreciate it. I suspect that in the race to cash in on cannabis seeds the quality is deteriorating. I know of a guy that had exactly the same problem a month ago with the same seed co. and the same strain. He caught it in time. I have had success with WW...

    Bad experience with commercial seeds doing the hermie

    I have been buying seeds at ILGM for a few years now but the last seeds I purchased were very disappointing. I Just had 2 ILGM White Widows that were supposed to be Autos f*ck up an entire tent of girls. Got a bumper crop of seeds. The White Widow's were supposed to be Autos but were Photos. I...

    NFTG in soil need magnesium supplement recommend

    I havent had a slurry register anything higher than 500-600. I was using (in the plants young life) distilled water, which Scott Ostrander has said is not a great practice because your PH will fall (I paraphrase) and so I began using Dechlorinator+ which is a whole lot easier and leaves my...

    NFTG in soil need magnesium supplement recommend

    I have not had a PPM reading that low, like ever. I hovered around 500-600 pretty consistently. I was using SLF100 and Recharge and continue to do so but when I added Photo Plus, thats when the PPM numbers really bottomed out. Indicating those microbes are working! Now I rotate through all 3...

    NFTG in soil need magnesium supplement recommend

    See above. Also, this is the 1st time Ive ran this nute line from seed to flower and this is just part of my learning curve. But yeah Ive been fighting falling PH and what appears to me to be a mag deficiency. Ive watched many episodes of Oregons Constant Gardener with the owner of NFTG (Scott...

    NFTG in soil need magnesium supplement recommend

    Thats the amendment I tried. Though I hadnt tried adding it to the feed water, I just worked some into the top of the potting soil. At this point she needs attention pretty quickly as Ive been fighting this for a while
