Day 19. One day after FIMming.

Keep them coming !!!!!

I will not feed them anything in the veg stage, as the soil already contains (biological) nutrients in a NPK 9-5-3 mixture. What should I be feeding them in bloom for max bud production, keeping in mind that they will be blooming under CFL's ?

 

[safeman]

You must consider early, middle, and late stages of flower stage;
early flower 1- week feed high level of P & K
middle flower - week 2-4 - feed high level of K (example- big bud)
late flower - week 5-7 - feed high level P (example -bud blood)
What has been mentioned in a bloom booster feeding schedule and one can get good yields/buds with CFL's
DO NOT forget the pre-flower stage last 1-2 weeks - feed Veg nutrients until bud development

Hmmm. Since you have nutritious soil I am guessing you favour more natural feed rather than store bought/prepackaged?

If that is true, let me know and I can give you some ideas for flowering.

 

[safeman]

For organic use Super Tea Mix and Budswell _just trying to find what works and any thoughts/help/information will be greatly appreciated -that's how one learns. Prefer non-organic

Try feeding them a little higher than normal then wait and see how plants react.

I live in tropical zone and i can feed 2 or 3 times more than regular suggest ( 800 - 1500 ppm ) without burnt but with certain age though.

Maybe this s a little different than normal style, but try it out and see how it work for you.

Wish ya best of buds.

I would love to hear your ideas .. I am a total n00b when it comes to this .. I will also dig through the tutorials and do some extensive google searches, but that will never be as valuable as first hand experience which will save me from making all the usual mistakes, so I can concentrate on the more 'special' fuckups

My main concerns are cost and end-product quality. The first I want as low as possible, the second one as high as possible. So there is a tension field there where probably both will have to give a little but an optimum is reached. I do not need to win the hightime cup, I just want a continuous supply of good quality cannabis and a little surplus for give-away.

I could say I only want it to be better then what I can buy in a shop here .. but that would require me to show you .... you know what .. I will ...

This is 9 euro's worh of what I can buy here:

For anybody not having a clue what is meant by 'cashcrop' .. you where looking at it. Sorry for this horrible sight I confronted y'all with.

Great looking "tic's" Strain PLEASE talk about milky -

 

[PlanetJ]

Day 20 2 days after FIMming, I seem to have succeeded

Nothing to do, other then admire them today.

Probably PowerPlant (aka PP) It looks milky cuz of the lighting used .. it's all clear .. with a hint of milky on a few of them .. the pictures looked better before upload :/

It looks almost like the main top is just growing back. Any closeup pictures?

I thought the same .. yesterday I removed a little bit more from the top of plant 5. What we are looking at is the unfolding of the fanleaves, I'll make closeups later today, with the regular pictures.

 

[PlanetJ]

Day 21 I trimmed off those fanleafs I mentioned in my previous post, and got some semi-closeups

 

[Antics]

FIM's are much more difficult. I missed on my first one lol. If they're not cut quite low enough, all the leaves grow back as normal. But if cut too low, it ends up just being topped. It's a fine line that I haven't been able to completely pin down for myself yet.

EDIT: Ah and new pics! In these new pictures it's difficult to tell still, at least for me. You'll know more in a few days
