1 tbsp epsom salt per 5 gallon bucket
I use 1/3 cup molasses per 5 gallon bucket. But some ppl just use 2 tbsp per 5gal.

I tried epson salts as a pesticide mixed in with garlic, liquid dish soap, veggie oil, and water....The plants lived. The bugs stopped for the past week. I'll assess next week for further results. The water was warm not cold when I sprayed it on the plants too. The epson salts are known to kill spider mites if that's a problem.

Update on the ladies. Pics 22, 35, 41, 53 and 59 are of the Blackberry Kush plants I have. They have been in flowering since they took strong roots and I have not had time to even drop a high nitrogen mix into the soil to boost them back to veg or hang a CFL string to keep them under 24 hour light. My bad. But my real question is what is up with the leaf style....? I was thinking a Ruderalis plant or some weird Indica strain and should I yank them or try and mitigate as best as I can? But regardless, any words of wisdom would be more then appreciated, Thanks all!

jeez man those leaves in 53 look like a pepper plant. My guess would be a root issue. But that's a wild guess. I transplated a tomato into shitty clay soil with no drainage and the leaves started to grow like that. don't know if its your problem but it looks similar.
i dont mean to but in on ur convo..but i was reading tryin to get some info and this post caught my eye..this is my first grow ever i jus threw a few bag seeds into a 5 gallon bucket and left them alone (i germ them in my room first i rememberd that from 7th grade science class lol) now i kno i have some N deficiency that i have been trying to remedy this past week...i bring them in and out everyday (out at 4am wen i go to work and in at 4pm a lil while after i get back) my schedule has changed and i think i fucked it up by putting them out at diff times and i think it mite b in the begining stages of goin back to veg (im hopeing not) i was jus wondering wat i could do to stop it or watever..and another question..scince i cant have huge plants and i kno the 5g bucket def isent big enuff for 3 plants but will them all being in the same 5g bucket cause them to die or jus stunt their growth...again srry for butting in but if u could help or anyone reading this could help it would b greatly appriceatedI'm no expert but that does look like it might be flowering.
Just an aside, one of mine looked like this when I put her outside and she has since re-vegged and grown a foot.

Bean, this is my best guess on revegging. You would have to manipulate the light your plant is getting to put it back to thinking it is flower time, again. I think this might be where light dep comes into play or could be used to fool your plant. Again, my best guess. I'm a newb myself about vegging and light dep.
As for 3 pot plants in a 5 gal pot..um, pick the best one and chop the other 2 or get them their own pots. On this advice, I'm a pro.
Good luck.
thanx man..that pretty much sums up wat i was thinking anyway...im jus gonna have to start putting myself on a stricter schedule if i want this to work..i wasent plannin on this but now that its got this far i wanna see it thru..i didnt really want to use nutes (no particular reason jus didnt want to do the work i guess) but i think i should get them now if i want this to work...any suggestionsBean, this is my best guess on revegging.

I would spend my money on 2 more pots and some soil and get 3 times the amount come harvest time.

Got a plant ripped off 2 nights ago... It was the most flowered of the bunch but still 2 weeks from harvest. My other Blackberry Kush is still in the ground but they just ripped off the colas on that one. Damn shame.. They wiped out my chance of trying my own Blackberry Kush. The other ladies didn’t get touched.. But I am sure they are just waiting. Same thing happened earlier this summer to my neighbor; 3 of his got yanked when they were not even close to flower. I think its kids but who knows? Either way "nice" surprises went up today for the next time they drop by ; ) Lastly, this being my second grow and first savagery taken against by the rippers... it is a whole new bad feeling to walk in to your grow one day and then BAM! Ones gone. I can’t imagine if there was nothing but empty holes that morning.

As easy as it is, we still get rippers. Sad day for sure.

Nothing worse than a fucking thief.. I can't go more than a few minutes without looking at my cameras these days.
