KC Brains Mango-Jack's Classic & "Makin' It Rain"

Comando said:
Smart- that is what I have to say about a grower like you. I read Riddleme's threads aswell and it all made a shit ton of sense to me.... Nutrient companys and magazines are trying to tell me that companies like Jack's that have been proving them selves for years, on 1000's of different types of plants, all the sudden arent good enough for a weed????? im not buying the hype... I like the Idea of organics but I like the idea of Giant harvests better.... good luck, scribed as I will DEFINITELY be swithcing to jacks when the technaflora runs out...

Good for you, let me know if you start a grow journal once you switch
 
Sorry fellas, just been busy and haven't been posting. Missed last weeks update, they went into flowering on the 15th so this is 16 days into flowering. They got a good trim the other day and are looking good. Just for clarification Riddleme, the Mangos haven't had any mite problems, just he plants that were further along in flowering.

They got the 'dynamic duo' their first watering in flowering and once more. They are on the Bloom Booster 10-30-20 only now, and I'm supplementing some cal-mag as well. Still making it rain every 4 watering or so.

Thanks big, they are doing really well. I only wish I had the lights to do em proper. 2 600's on a light mover over a 5x15 space just doesn't do them justice at all. Hopefully after the outdoor harvest, some upgrades will be in order !

Wow, deff subscribing to this grow!

I just wanna say that I stated my very first grow using Jacks Classics way back when I had little knowledge of what I was doing and I have never seen leafier fuller plants that grew as fast as these ones did. I was using 30-10-10 orchard ferts and they really exploded in veg! Since then I have grown with Biobizz complete line up and have grown completely organic with teas and all the amendments, you name it. I still have not seen the tremendous growth results I got when using Jack's, Im thinking its time to switch back to the basics.

I think your doing a great job with your grow and im thinking about getting Jacks 20 20 20 and the bloom booster, I already have molasses, epsom salt, and Azomite which has over 72 trace elements in it. Im thinking that should make a pretty good 1 2 knockout.

Here are some veg pics from a few yrs back when I used Jacks orchard ferts, and put the laidies outside.

Hey thanks for the reinforcement on the Jacks. Riddleme turned me on to it and I've haven't looked back. Love it. Nice pics too.

Get yourself a dozen or so ladybugs and let them loose in the garden. As long as there is mites they will just kinda troll around and eat mites.

I've been having to leave the door to my grow room open to keep temps down, momma wouldn't be happy with me if there were lady bugs in the house, lol

Commando, thanks but the credit is really to Riddleme, he opened my eyes. I was using the very expensive humboldt line, 14 parts I believe, and it was running me in the dirt. I've gone from over 100 bucks a week in costs to about 30, and thats with feeding the monsters outdoors. No way I could have afforded to feed the outdoor the humboldt, no way.

I'm happier with the results too. Much easier to nail down a problem when you are using 3-5 products rather than 15, lol.

Ohh and here's a picture for my pal.

Thanks Illumination, appreciate that. I bought some dyna grow to supplement some micro micro nutrients, haven't had to open it yet. Between the Protekt and cal mag, I think I'm good.
 
Gonna have to grow some of those Mangos this winter when I fire back up. Very nice Rocky.

I see you put your butter knife away for something with a bit more edge. That one cut deep. BooHoo. Without a doubt one of the most dissapointing moments in sports history. Unless you are a '72 Dolphin or a Raiders fan!

Ohh you mean the Tuck Rule screwing was one of the most disappointing moments?

Wait no, you mean the Immaculate Reception, screwing?

Okay, you must mean the time Floyd Little left the ball on the 1 yard line and they called it a touchdown, is that the screwing you speak of?

No team has been screwed more than my beloved Raidahs, period.

Hey Tito, pass Cowboy some tissue !

Very cool, be sure to send a link or put one in your signature. It will be cool to see your experiment. I would like to see the numbers in dollars per gram. You should keep an accurate total of what it costs start to finish with each, at regular cost, not the hook up.

Good luck with your grow and thanks for stopping by.
 
Here is a quick update on the Riddleme Mango's. They are 24 days into flowering having gone in on the 15th of August. Got some brown spots, nothing too serious, but the first 'issue' so far in this grow using only the Jacks Classic and Bloom. Shoulda used cal mag from get go, but am supplementing it now.

Well I think the cal mag fixed the problem I was having. Plants look good and strong. Buds are just beginning to swell up. These are 30 days in with about 35 or so to go.

The Riddleme Mangos are doing very well. Look like they are gonna go about 10 days longer than I usually run them. I'm also convinced they would be in better shape if I wouldn't have used the big pots and stuck to my 2 gallons. The Goddess plants, 2 sets behind them, could be the strongest set of plants I've grown thus far in my career.
