I was going to suggest you convert everything to mL. Makes adjusting ratios MUCH easier. I use an iPhone app for conversions though. GH also has an app for recipes I use. Then I use the recommended does (mostly) for my other ingredients. Problem is, the units they use don't always match what I'm measuring with, so I have to convert. At some point, I'll dial in the exact recipe I like for each stage and record it as a simple ratio, ie Gro 1 part, Micro 1 part, Bloom 1 part, FloraBlend 2 parts. Then you can make a table for how large a "part" is for various amounts of water.

The plant is definitely looking better. Glad you got it sorted out.

Hello everyone. i hope everyone is having a great Friday. TGIF haha. Today is my Week 6 day 3 flower update. she is doing great!!! the nitrogen problem was kind of solved haha. still a little short on nitrogen but im close enough to harvest that im not to worried about nitrogen right now. i had a good friend who has been growing for years over this week and he gave me some very helpful advice. first he taught me that i can use all of my fan leaves as a mulch for my plants. this will help my soil retain moisture and it will slowly add nutrients to my soil as it breaks down. another piece of advice is that if you are going to do compost teas, you need to bubble your tea in the dark. i had mine sitting in my main grow space with my lights haha.

so anyway here are some pictures of my little lady.

Well thats all for now. please let me know if theres anything wrong that you can see.

Thank you everyone for stopping by and checking out my journal.

Keep it green!!

Well hello everyone!!! Its been a while since i have been able to get on and update this. i unfortunealy have not been able to grow over the past 2 months !!! but does that mean i havent been thingking about growing??? NOT AT ALL!!!!!!!! infact since i have been on a hiatus of growing i have been procuring a few little things to help me out when i do get back to growing

first things first is that i have purchased a new light system. i broke down and got a 400 watt super hps/mh air-cooled hood light system. i am so excited to get to put some plants under this thing. i tested it out when i first got it and holy shit these things are bright!!!! its really nice that its an all in one system that i can use both hps and mh light bulbs. the iPower ballast i got with it dimmable to 75% and 50%.

as i sit here typing this up i am enjoying a bowl of my own grown that has been in a curing jar for a month and half and man is it awesome. its a great high with both the powerful body high and i very mind uplifting effect also!!

I have some pictures of my new setup.

And here are some pictures of my long term curing jar. its got my home grown Double Bubble Trainwreck and some stuff i bought, Apollo and Pineapple Express. Enjoy

Well thank you everyone for stopping by and catching up!!
Keep it green everyone!!!

Nice, don't run that light without air goin thru it!

Noted. Thanks mc. I have only ran it for about 5 minutes at a time. I kinda figured you prolly shouldn't run it with out air flow.

Thanks Vick for stopping by. It's good to be back on. Missed you all!!!

Keep it green everyone!!

Alright everyone here is my week 7 update!!!
First i want to say that i have converted to growing TLO (True Living Organic) style. And the results are impressive!! not only does she seem extremely happy, but i actually dont have to do as much. i am not having to feed with bottle nutes as often as i did last time around. i give her an organic bubbled tea every 10 days or so. my next grow will be 100% TLO where you dont have to ever feed her only give her good water. but anyways here is my current girl (hopefully)

here she is in her nice environment!!!

some nice angles of her!!!! no signs of nute deficiency at all!!!!!!

some nice close ups of her pre-flowers. from my little experience im saying she is a female!! what do you guys think?????

well theres the pics i have. its amazing watch her grow and change and adapt. about 2 weeks ago when i introduced my LED light i was noticing that she was kinda sagging by the time she was at 15-18 hrs of light. almost like she was getting tired from to much light. so i changed my light from 18/6 to 16/8 and she stopped showing the signs of sagging. and i ruled out under/over watering. i have been slowly backing her lights down in the last week for flowering next week or early this week. well thats all i got for now!!

I've been doing TLO for a while now. the spikes are super key, and yes everything you need to grow the plant out is in the dirt, but u must still add teas, and fairly often, for optimum results. Keep in mind, the teas keep the microbe populations high enough to process the spikes for the plant.

I did a "water only" TLO grow and it wasn't as good as with the use of ACT's, kinda night and day difference really.

A really easy way to get the spikes all premixed to the exact rev's specifications is to buy them, premixed from True Living Organics | The Highest Quality Organic Fertilizers for your Garden!

Also, your right on the money with the FF big bloom.

People are telling u it isn't all natural, organic. It is NOT OMRI certified organic, that being said it is an awesome, all natural, organic product. Someone doesn't believe this? Google the entire ingredient list.

Tiger bloom, grow big are terrible. Organic based? What a crock.

I feel like your shooting for a TLO grow, and most of your "helpers" have never even heard if it.

Not trying to be a dick head at all,
Trying to help.
