Doc Bud's High Brix Q&A With Pictures

[Doc Bud]

Oh yeah her branches are super thick lmao. She was so thick tht was the main reason i figured i cud put her through so much training. But im definitely sure its guna pay off in the end lol. I cant wait to see in flower. Speaking of the flower tent here are my Alaskan Purple and my Critical Purple Kush tht were havn problems. Doc suggested i do a double strength feeding an now its time for the next one an im assuming tht i would jus go back to the normal strength dose or shud i keep up with the double strength feedings?

Here is the Alaskan Purple she is still having issues with some of the leaves burning up on me idk why.

If any1 can chime in if i shud do a double strength or a normal strength dose for feeding the girls i wud greatly appreciate it thank you.

Keep it at double for a while.....if you see signs of problems, then back off.

Ok yea tht mite be the case cuz the air is super warm 84 degrees but the rh is lower over here only 39 to 44% cuz its up against the wall tht i use the window to help cool it down in the garden area i open the window to help save on energy of using the ac. But tht cud be why the soil is messed up altho they were having issues in the other tent an there the humidity is really gud so idk. I need to get another humidifier for this tent normally it sits right aound 45 to 47% which works for a flower tent. But its winter here where i am so its super super dey plus im growing in an old tralier tht im sure isnt a great environment as 2 being able 2 hold steady with temps or even rh. But yea ill get them off the floor. About how far should i lift them up? So could i jus place some cardboard boxes folded up under them an get them off the floor some like tht or will tht not work?

2 inches of foam insulation or an 8 inch airgap will do the trick.

Like I thought, you're too warm in the room, and too cold in the soil....plus too dry! If your temps are going to be 84 degrees, you need to be at 60% rH.

This is why you're having problems.....

Wow Darkscotia, that room looks gorgeous! Great color, flat, pointy leaves and bushy as hell. Anyone would be envious of those plants brother.

Thanks very much. Using docs soil makes things much easier that for sure

So you run CAT all the way through? Everyone seems to be doing things different now a days. I’m running 3 gal and I definitely have issues with the plants running out of gas at about wk 5-6z the quality is there but the plants look like shit!!‍♂

Are you asking about using exclusively Cat for seed generation? I normally add Cat into the mix when I'm growing plants for just seeds.

I.e.
Grow-water-trans-water-cat-water
Then repeat. That way they're getting what they need from Grow and Trans. You could maybe drop the Trans as from what I understand, that's what Cat mostly is.

No I don't run CAT all the way through. I just said if growing seeds it would be best to run CAT all the way through flower. When I finally do a seed run I will use CAT exclusively through flower.

Cat all the way for seed production. Certainly you could use GI in veg if you wanted, but Cat will produce some very nice seeds.

 

[Governmentchz]

I got discouraged after my last seed project ended in under-developed seeds of clementine, but I didn't use cat nearly enough I think. With the scarcity of BCP at this point, I'm going to set aside a couple small clones to make some seeds of that. I'll use cat exclusively in flower and see what happens.

Ok so what wud u suggest for a type of humidifier? Cuz the one i got now jus for the ten by ten tent cost me 130 bux so would like to get one cheaper but every other one i tried didnt actually raise the rh% at all. So jus wondering if u new of one tht wud be cheaper an wud work good enuf lol.

Dam bro those are looking great congrats.

Morning all....

I have a plant showing some yellow tips.

This is IHG's OGKBV2.1 x (Slurricane 7xGelato33) so absolutely a Frankenstrain. I am assuming I need to hit her with SO next foliar (which happens to be later today.)

The roots are definitely not cold, they were transplanted on the 10th with a strong trans drench, then got straight water (no tea or trans) on th 20th. Nothing since then. ...*edit except normal Brix foliars and a Destress after transplant.*

Temps have been consistently 20°C/68°F at lights off and a high of 27°C/80°F with lights on.

RH has been steady between 45-60%

I was planning on doing this run with straight water all the way through as the in between drench since I have always done 1/4 trans as the in between drench. I am now starting to think the 1/4 trans would be for the SO type of plants.

I didn't get to inspect all that much this morning as I had to run out for work...but I took some quick pics. I don't see any issues on anything else in the tent.

 

[Seedlingmtl]

While I am in interrogation mode this morning....does anyone have suggestions for a "good" home water or soil test kit.

.....or is it worth it to use a lab for testing. I have access to do both, but for the scale I am working lab testing seems excessive financially.

I had same type of thing happen when I transplanted as well. After they got happy
In new home all has seemed to be fine. No new growth was affected.

They have been in there for a couple weeks though and looking great up until this morning. They looked stressed after transplant, but turned around very quickly after an application of Destress. They have been really getting big quick this last week.

Seedling....i would use the lab bud!

I know it is best, just curious if anyone has had experience using the home kits. For water at least it might be a good starting point.

 

[Duggan]

Ya, but i would want reliable results and stop friggen around.
Not saying those kits dont work but i would like to get right to the truth.
