July 17th, 2022 Feeding: 500ppm large plants (5weeks), 200ppm small (3 weeks). Edit: Just noticed my smaller plants are already shooting pistils at 3 weeks. I spent less time focusing on feeding them, so it’s interesting the difference between those that had more attention and those that had...

July 15, 2022 (Evening) Gave them all a big drink of Ph’d water after a hot day. Should be good for another 2 days of 30c/90f weather. I normally don’t water like this but with the heat and the black grow bags the water goes quick.

July 15th, 2022 First pistils! Feeding: 600ppm, 6.1Ph Profile

July 14, 2022 Canopy shot.

July 13th, 2022 Just a few photo updates. Growing like crazy now.

July 10, 2022 Did nothing today. Big soak from the other day still holding. No problems.

July 9th, 2022 Big drench yesterday with Ph’d water. First straight water without feed for a bit. Some photos…

July 6th, 2022 Did absolutely nothing with them today. Sometimes best to just let them do what they’re supposed to do. No signs of burn from the last feeding, which was pretty high I have to admit: I did over 400ppm one day, and 2 days later did over 500. I realized how stupid that was after...

July 5th, 2022 (Week 4) Feeding: Upped to 550ppm, 6.0Ph. This will be the max I go until flowering. Seedlings received ~100ppm, 6.0Ph (First ever feeding) Did LST on all my smaller seedlings, and on half of my older plants. I know the Green Crack can get tall, so did that one for sure. Did...

July 4th, 2022 Nothing done today, just some photos! Raining quite a bit but also sun, plants don’t seem to mind.

July 3, 2022 Nothing to do today. Moderate rain the past 36hrs, great growth - new pics tomorrow!

Soilless — ProMix/Perlite 4:1

Have you looked at pyrethrum? I use it for pests on my tomato’s and works well. Just make sure you use it at dawn as to not kill beneficial pollinators like bees. For seedlings I even cover with a ziplock bag to be sure they’re all in there getting zapped while bees don’t touch it. Spray it off...

Do people even bother doing LST for better yield outdoors? Does it increase the yield enough to make it worthwhile? I understand it indoors for space saving reasons and because you have the light coming straight down onto the plant, but outdoors you have tons of space and the light is always...

July 2, 2022 Feeding: 490ppm, 5.8Ph, Maxibloom Hot day, 85-90f

Feeling good about my choice to use the KISS method — a very simple General Hydroponics Maxibloom + Promix combo (no other feeding). Thanks everyone so far for the advice, super simple and cost effective. This weeks grow log (Week 3)...

June 30, 2022 (End of week 3) Just a few pics! They seemed to handle the 400+ ppm feed ok! Had to water the tiny seedlings a bit (not shown) but other than that leaving them alone. Oh, and had to do a pretherin dust one one as well. Being super aggressive on pest control early to prevent future...

Looks fine to me!

June 29, 2022 Another feeding today, this time the full dose of 1tsp Maxi/gal. 5.7Ph, 430ppm, 0.8EC Found this little guy munching on my Northern Lights. Treated all of them with pyrethrim dust just to be on the safe side. I’ve seen grasshoppers devour entire mature sunflowers before, so not...
