It's getting pretty late but I might try supercropping the top colas to get an even canopy. It's the reason you have a scrog net otherwise this will leave you with sparse buds below. You want an even canopy for best results.

Do you have a link?
Why did you not only use earth dust top dress each 3 week 30ml a gallon minimum of 5 gallon pot .

All big bud and sensi is bad for ur pocket. really if you want to go that way use megacrop its way better product and cheaper with some mkp for flowering leave the grow shop alone they love u.

I am sure that you cant grow killer shit with just earth dust better then with nutrients...for sure

Last grow using gaia green

Current grow

Keep it green

The strain play a big part to you need to find ur favorite .

Week 6 down, the girls seem to be showing signs of an issue I got to narrow down. The tips are pointed downward and the leaves are dark green. Hope everyone is doing well. Cheers!

Not talking shit but those plants look horrible. Even in the earlier weeks before flower. I wouldn’t even put those into flower til you fixed the problem. Week 4 of flower looked like week 1. Kinda making earth dust look bad. Here’s my grow in week 3. Using earth dust nutes on the back 3 of my plants. The rest are using nukeheads bloom.

All the plants were really in bad shape before I transplanted to Earth Dust.the only one that wasnt was the Christmas tree. That was planted seed to soil. Before this I've never used dry amendments before. So this was a learning experience for sure.

I use this product. Top dress, water it in. You can add it to your tea brews as well.




It has more nitrogen as well as (Azos)

Azos is an all-natural, growth promoting, Nitrogen fixing bacteria ideal for cloning and transplanting. Azos converts nitrogen into a usable form that is readily available to the plant. Nitrogen is critical for forming vegetative matter and supporting abundant growth. Azos promotes growth, while boosting natural root development.

Week 7 veg! And today's video we talk all the plant except to, and put up some LST on some of them. The last time I fed them was when they received their transplant. Unfortunately one of the plants did not make it, it was the one with the severely burnt fan leaves. Hope everyone's doing well. Cheers!

Harvest time!! First off apologies for the long absence, I had to take care of some family issues. In today's video we recap the use of Earth Dust, harvest plants, create a dry box from cardboard. Cheers everyone! -G.I.JOSE

How many watts is that Giixer LED?

I feel like that was another major problem in the grow. Not nearly enough light for those plants.

I just looked into it myself. The giixer 1000....

Claims to be a 1000w replacement but only draws 110 watts from the wall. You were severely under powered in the light department.

I was wondering why at week 5 you barely had any bud development and now I know why. That light MIGHT be able to flower 1 plant if you put it 12 inches off the top of it. It would cover a 1x1 in flower and you were trying grow 4 or 5 plants with it over what looked like a 4x4?

I’d throw that light in the trash. These LED companies that advertise this type of shit really pisses me off.
 
I had this gixxer light. My very first light . And it’s funny you are testing GSC amendment while I’m testing both their lights amd amendment together. Dude that light was not 1/4 needed light. You spent way too many days in veg with no growth . After your transplant, you stunted growth on all of them. Then you over watered those plants. Check out Emilya how to water a potted plant . Weed needs the soil to dry out , and if you don’t have your temps right and humidity, stunted growth . Then there’s water . If you use water from tap, could have issues . You use cheers a lot so I’d say your not from the US. I read along with your journey and it was painful to watch you make mistakes when people was genuinely trying to help ya
Sponsored grows should not restrain you from making Gardner type calls when it comes to health of a plant. Gixxer , it sounded like they are one’s sponsoring, should be concerned with if you ran lights 13 hours or 18 hours or 24 in veg then you did 12 in bloom and that’s all they should be concerned with
Just my two cents

Ok sure but any amendments you add will not do much without a form of compost to provide microbial activity. An active mix is even more important than npk values. You can brew aact teas or simply add worm castings or backyard compost or bokashi but you need to make the soil active first in order for whatever amendments you add to decompose and eventually become available for absorption by the root system.
Earth dust comes with microbes
 
I’m using earth dust and having good results except for one plant. This one is having major issues . Today makes 36 days into flower, these pics are at day 33
I’ve also been using cal mag plus, even some Mega Crop. 6gr/2gl H2O
This plant has kept up with bud production like the others even fattening up and filling in however there is no resin production

My experience with earth dust has not been that impressive. I’m growing six plants in a 4 x 4 tent in fabric pots. 5 gallon. My soil is ocean forest. I’m growing under two electric sky ES 300 LED lights. All of my plants look like they’re suffering from some type of deficiency. Three of them have developed brown spots on the leaves, very similar to the photographs shown earlier on this thread. Two of the plants are light green, suggesting there’s some nitrogen deficiency. I’ll be exploring other organic options for my next grow.
