Autoflower Hunger Games By Heraldo

I don't imagine so. Especially the advanced nutrients!!
Shit, Holland revolutionized the industry, could be a great weekend trip

Hehe it is indeed a truly great trip. And they dont even bother to check what you post home FedEx are too cheap to check I think. Seriously awesome place, well worth a trip for people that haven't experienced it. Damn, I'm gonna have to go there again soon. I miss the Hawaiian Snow from Green House, it made my thoughts and veins vibrate I swear . Fuck growing it though, 14 weeks flower, XXL Sativa, no thanks, not in my tiny tent...

A local growshop carries AN stuff. I might give tarantula a shot. Not the cheapest stuff in the world but I'm curious to see what it does.
You notice a big difference using it?

Never tried it sorry, Great White is amazing for root growth and health though. I can vouch for that. Its a bit expensive but you only need the tiniest bit, like sprinkling salt or pepper on food. Really tiny amount.

If you're going to do it, I recommend all three. It's pricey, but it's insane. Most beautiful roots I've ever had.
Great white is wonderful too though. It's what I currently use.
But the trio is the ish!

While researching I found a post from 2010 where some dude said the root stuff I'm using has microbes. I'll take his word for it and save myself a few bucks. Maybe invest it in some molasses to feed the little guys with My roots do look pretty happy to tell the truth. Thanks

Lol I love that
"some random dude 7 years ago said something so I'll go with that"
Lol
I'm just giving you a hard time

I don't think it has microbes but may promote their proliferation.
If it's a money thing, Xtreme Mykos are less expensive, and will help.

But I think you can get great white from Amazon for like 20 bucks

 

[Heraldo]

Yeah, it sounded kinda fishy to me too. The bottle doesn't mention anything about them. What you're saying does make more sense though. This time around I think I'll see how it goes with whatever microbes might already be in my soil and try to keem them happy with the root stuff and molasses. If I'm not happy with the results I know what to get for next time.

Woke up this morning to see critical+ and critical somango were touching the CFLs. No damage done but I decided to start with the LST.

Vertigo is just doing her own thing

Buddha looks like she might be a 2 headed mutant, so I did what any normal human would do. Name her Cat, after the song "Cat with 2 heads" by The Aquabats. It wasn't fair to only name her with a reference to the best band ever created, so:
Critical+ = Danger woman ("Nothin' can stop her". Very quick recovery after LST)
Critical somango = Sandy (Slow recovery after LST. "In the sand she laid face down")
Vertigo = Elizabeth AKA Liz AKA Beth AKA Francine (No lyrics to quote, but I like the idea of her telling the other plants she was moving to Alaska instead of the LED tent)

On a side note, the growshops in my town stink. Was still thinking about adding microbes, so I went to see what they had to offer. They weren't very helpful... (maybe this forum is spoiling me :.
Bought molasses on an impulse on the way home, but I might not be able to use it. Turns out ecological molasses isn't necessarily unsulfured. Gonna have to wait for the company to answer my email to know.

That's all I've got.

 

[Heraldo]

Everyone is officially 2 weeks old today.
CFL girls

Sandy. I'm still not sure if I should've put her under the LED. This kid's got potential.

Cat. Can't wait for her to grow a bit more to see what's going on with her. 2 heads? 3 heads?...

Danger woman. She'll be flowering very soon. Got some of that zigzaggy growth going.

Elizabeth. Starting to show off some fat indica looking leaves.

 

[Heraldo]

Pics stink more than usual today. Was feeling kinda lazy.
Gave everyone a light watering today. Root plus + neem + 1/4 strength veg nutes. Took a peek under the pots and all of them have roots peeking out of the drainage holes (Elizabeth's looked specially healthy).
DW and Sandy will probably get another LST session tomorrow.

CFL girls. Did more LST. It's pretty sloppy. Probably won't be doing much more. Just enough to keep everyone at the same height.

Sandy (critical somango) is the only one getting a close up today. Saw her first pistils today, but wasn't able to get them in the pic.

Elizabeth is still doing her own thing. Maybe I'm delusional, but I'd swear she's starting to stretch.

The molasses I bought has been confirmed to be unsulfured, so next watering will probably just be water + molasses. Hopefully there's something to feed it to in my soil xD

 

[Heraldo]

CFL pots were feeling light today (might've been a bit too stingy with the water last time) so they got their first taste of molasses today. Elizabeth did too. Not much else to mention...

 

[GlaucomaMeds]

Looking good

 

[Heraldo]

New CFL tent arrived today. They really took care of me this time and threw in 10 free seeds and a couple of 40ml bottles of nutes. I really wish I had more space right now so I could start trying them out.
Didn't really take time to take pics today. Already planning the new grow xD The girls did seem to like the molasses though.

Early update with lights on today.
CFL girls looked kinda gloomy this morning, so I bottom fed them some veg nutes and a dose of "flower stimulator". They seem happier now.

Elizabeth had some spots on a couple of leaves (I'm guessing a deficiency of some sort), so she got fed too.

 

[Heraldo]

I woke up to some very fine looking young ladies this morning. Looks like LST is starting to show results.

Took a picture of Elizabeth in the shower. Pretty sure she's about to stretch. I'm starting to worry the leaves are burnt from being too close to the LED... She's currently 21" away and the tips of the top leaves seem to be the only ones affected. Not sure what to think/do.

Edit: after studying the pic I decided to raise the light a bit.

 

[Heraldo]

Couldn't help myself and started LSTing Elizabeth also. I'm aiming to make room for the CFL girls in the LED tent. They'd just be sitting on top of Elizabeth's soil. I'd like to move all 3 in, but realistically I'll probably be just 1 or 2 (I could fit all 4 more or less comfortably with some pruning, but I'm not a fan of dismemberment).
If all goes well I'll be able to cut down on the electricity bill and start working towards growing a halfassed perpetual.
I'll take some pics when lights go out.

 

[Heraldo]

I need to step my photography game up... hard to tell what's going on...

Danger Woman

Cat

Sandy

Elizabeth

 

[Heraldo]

So the girls have been alive for 24 days now (Sandy 25). Today they were fed 1/2 strenght veg nutes + flower stimulator. Gonna have to switch to flower nutes soon (might already be too late for sandy). LST for the CFL girls is getting kinda hectic. Accidentally ripped one of Elizabeth's lower branches off doing LST on her... oops... That's all I can think of right now.

 

[Blazin Waffle]

Beautiful!

 

[Heraldo]

Moved DW and Sandy to the LED tent. Couldn't make room for Cat, so she was sacrificed.
Went ahead and moved the CFLs to the old tent, which will be used as a nursery from now on.
The unused tent will just sit there taking up space until drying time comes around or I can afford more lights.
Pic will be up later on.
