• Oi Rutjumper, thinking of you... for all the good it does you I'm not sure why I mention it... ach, that's kinda negative of me, every little bit helps us fragile creatures, doesn't it? I know you're "up against it" these days, like for real, and in whatever state of matter you happen to be in at this moment you will always be a fekking legend. So there's that. Not that being a legend can be cashed in for groceries and some 89 octane... (reliably) but it counts for something all the same. Miss you, and was wondering if you'd had some news, good or ill. Like I said, thinking of you.

    Dog :ciao: Thank you so much. :thanks:
    I think of you every day, your health is a constant concern for me.
    I don't pester you about as you say doesn't do any good.
    But know I always perk up to see you post anywhere.
    Let alone here, I took a screen shot. Hehe
    I still have your pic to be posted in the VIVOHUT. :hug:
    You and Cap'n Lucky.
    As you well know though there is an echo in the fridge, but good news is afoot.
    Starting today.
    So hopefully this is bottom.
    But I can't seem to put down the shovel.
    Not complaining though honestly.
    Can be worse.
    Girls are just amazing and LIG.:yahoo:Right
    Do you have your veg stand going?
    Don't be afraid to post a couple pics in the vivo thread.
    Love to see what you upto.
    Be well my friend and stay safe.
    I see your status, impressed. Any words of wisdom for me . Backstory I popped 20seeds before I got this far , grizzly n Dutch. I’m well happy, didn’t release how much stress was involved in growing it’s worth it though

    I start on low with babies.
    But I turn it up fairly quickly.

    Niceone , bumped it up do same tomorrow . You ever used biobizz ?
    Bill284
    Bill284
    I use coco mostly, soil on occasion.
    Biobizz light mix is good for babies.
    Regular for full grown works well.
    Their nutrients are decent.
    What product are you referring too?

    not a gnat any where. some how with My LOS I had a calcium issue I had a big loss of grow time. there is a lot to learn about a SIP or like I have a Shwick I noticed the problem about 10 days got worm casing and a little cal/mag coloring starting to come back maybe I need to allow more time before everything is a Lush green. I also have some really burnt tips on the sativas the indicia not so bad going completely Organic I shouldnt be having issues especially in veg the problem is most likely not being patient enough to let the stuff work Charlie is rocking that hair cut.

    I did learn one thing Love growing pot becuase it give me a feeling of purpose and to relieve stress OH to get really , really stoned. But when My plants have issues my life falls apart, It will come together and next time will be easier

    how are things at home? any luck any where? other than cool dog hair cut? Stacie have any luck? still rooting
    Have a good night my friend

    Silicate will go off if not dissolved in your water first.
    The easiest thing I found was once a week mix up a batch by itself.
    And give everyone a little drink after feeding .
    This way you don't have to worry about dissolving the Silicate.
    Follow the instructions on the Silicate for mixing strength.
    Just in plain water. :thumb:

    I also like to put about a cup of water in the microwave for 30 seconds and things seem to dissolve much better that way then mix that with a gallon

    I got to see them.:rofl:
    @Bill284 nICE pICTURE LOL ALMOST AS NICE AS MY CAPS KEY well just wanted to touch base after a week of tending to everyone in the house sitting on the hopper with a bucket as puke and shit pour out both ends Hell week is over. How are things with you guys hope all is well. I got 5 plants in solo cups 2 have popped above ground and im checking the other 3 every 15 minutes Hope the others break thru soon I guess if I want them to pop up. I need to start 2 more for back ups and the originals will pop up and ill have 2 plants extra. or I could be patient . How did you make those little supports you used to stabilize your babies last time? I want to use them and see if I can get a little taller before I start getting side branches.

    I had a better harvest than I expected the weed is amazing I havent smoked it bu7t just the amount of trichomes and sooooo sticky I was constantly cleaning my snips with alcohol the tent smells like fresh cut grass in a pile of tangerine peels so I think they are doing the breaking down of the chlorophyll.
    any way arenty ya glad I dont run to ya 5 times a day with my hair on fire? you prolly have 5 new people keeping ya hopping now .
    you are a good man Just wanted to drop a line and say hey

    I CANT POST A PIC ON YOUR PM SO iM GOING TO EMAIL YOU A SHOT AS SOON AS I TAKE OF caps lol
    Good morning to you Bill (Kent, UK).

    Not sure If you remember but we briefly spoke about 5 or 6 weeks ago, I guess. I was on MG and Glookies Auto. With a very scrapbook set up 😂

    Well, I am much further down the line but have been pre occupied with hospital appointments etc as we have a new addition to the family on the way. My set up is now complete. I'm very happy with it and I'm at a very late stage where I'm keeping tabs on trichomes and researching flushing.

    Whilst I began with two autos, at five weeks I planted another two in the same tent. 2/3 weeks later I switched to 12/12 to get the bigger of the ladies flowering - but accidently encouraged the younger two to flower. So I've got 4 beasts out there with big juicy colas.

    I guess I was hoping at this stage you could answer a few of my questions and maybe give some solid advice on the flushing process too. I ask you because I have religiously followed the watering/nuting process you advised me on, amongst other tips you taught me. For that I'm very grateful

    hey Buddy ill tag it so ya know where Im at lol @Bill284 how have you been still getting the vivohut dialed in?
    I been in classes at 420 U I figured out it is just like college you are like the 4 Rs taught me all the mandatory things ya need to know to start growing and then ya got your specialty classes Im taking a class in organics from Keffka I guess the majors are like organics, Hydro, coco coir ect all the same but diffrent. the stuff I been learning about organics have already showed me how stupid I am :rofl: If I do this right I can grow the best pot I ever grew and not add a thing of food if this works as good as I have learned so far I think I will have found my sweet spot sheet I cant afford to change up again lol. If I have problems and start whining on my next grow remind me its my fault lol

I can tell Im gonna have to retrain my habits Im sure the first couple weeks ill be going thru Nute mixing withdrawal. I wont even mention the article I read about adding worms to your grow, a constant source of worm casings and aeration. Not so sure ill be doing that . of course I would always have worms to take the Gkids fishing lol
