1- AGE OLD ORGANICS GROW QT 12-6-6--A fast-acting natural high nitrogen formula with a 2 to 1 nitrogen ratio to encourage continued growth and vigor to your plants. Age Old Grow is manufactured by combining fish, seaweed, and naturally-occurring nutrients to form a stable, odorless, liquid plant food.
1- AGE OLD ORGANICS BLOOM QT 5-10-5--
A fast-acting natural high phosphorus combination of two of the oldest forms of fertilizer known, with added micronutrients. Odorless and concentrated Age Old Bloom will encourage early growth, better fruit set, increase germination rates, help flower and bud formation, and will help overcome stress caused by natural or chemical damage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1- AGE OLD KELP (0.30-0.25-0.15) qt size
Liquid Kelp concentrate supplies your plants with fast-acting and an odorless sources of minerals. When applied as a soil drench, Age Old Kelp helps build soil tilth and will restore the biological life of damaged soils. When used as a foliar spray, Age Old Kelp provides needed nutrients while improving the uptake of most nutrients.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
1- AGE OLD FISH AND SEAWEED (3-3-2) QT SIZE
The original organic fertilizer is a blend of processed fish hydrolysates and North Atlantic sea kelp. Loaded with macro-nutrients Age Old Fish & Seaweed makes for an effective plant stress reducer, encourages root growth and is rich in carbohydrates.
Just feels right. Looked them up and read a little, Seems old school
and easy so I ordered and there on the way..lol
Home made tea(not sure if its a Bad or good idea ? )
Brewing till tomorrow and I will see if
I want to use or just wait
for Age old to come in the mail.
Home made tea brew--Soaking 48 hours
3 gallon water container
4 1/2 TBSP Guano 1-10-1
1 tbs M.O.A.B
2 1/2 tsp Hydroplex Bloom maximizer
1/4 cup Molasses
2 1/2 tsp Epsom salt
4 1/2 TBSP Blood meal- For nitro def -
2 tsp Mycorrhizae
Added a air pump with bubbler and figure 48 to 72 hours I will
put into 1 gallon jugs and use to feed the ladys.
I could dillute by half per gallon.
I did put some thought into the mix Yet dont really know
if it will help or kill.
I look at my ladys and this is what they say they want.
To me at least.
Please feel free to be honest and if you care to share why I should not do a mix like this. I would appreciate the input.
The Room :
I have a 6'X7' space with barn door access( 2 doors ).
Used foam walls( Comes in large sheets at home depot )to build the room inside a empty bedroom.
Closed environment vented out through the homes Central heating vents.
I run my lights at night and figure the cool air will still make it into the room.
Room Temps:
Lights on -74 to 79
Lights off -64 to 68
Pests - None Known
Problems:
Scrog # 1 has yellow leaves, I'm thinking over watering.
I drilled a lot of holes in container for better drainage and dug a 1 inch hole 3\4 the way down dirt and filled with perlite
to help with aeration and help dry out faster & add some (Mycorrhizal Beneficial Fungi) for root growth.
Little GK freak is 9 weeks old and still 2" tall.
No roots when placed into test container a couple weeks ago.
Showing a little growth since. Freaky...lol
1 Grape Krush-cut today on day 80.( using for BHO )-

Final Thought.
For my first try at growing I'm happy so far.
I am learning what I need to know little by little and feel I have dodged bullets thanks to all
the fellow growers . The DIY,journals and incites people have shared are
a time saver for sure.
The fact that you can start out and save journals over the years (look back and go through the different grows)should prove to be worth the time it takes type all this chit.
So far I have a long way to go to get this first 2 waves done and smoked and I don't count Chic's before they hatch.
What I have seen,experienced,created and the Pic's
I have are worth the effort so far and this is just the beginning for me so
I think I will chill here and go check the Lady's...
Its a start.... Thanks for looking in and feel free to post comments,idea's and such in this journal.
