Mars Hydro FC-3000 Shines Down On Babygirl’s Sour Livers In DWC: Sponsored Grow

[cjsbabygirl313]

She looks like how I feel on a hot day after a hair cut

Just out of curiosity, do you have enough jars stashed for the cure? I think your gonna be North of 200g dried and cured. I remember you said your 1st was a bit smaller and i just want to make sure there's no last minute rush.

Unbelievable how great she's looking, your doing stellar!

Ps- both Grandpa Tokin and Stormblessed use those buckets a few pages back. If I was doing a DWC, that's the kind of bucket I'd want.

Thank you . Yup - I have two of the larger CVaults and both large and small Mason Jars so I’m good to go there.

And yup - already ordered that bucket!

Ok, I did it … trimmed anything that may have turned into larf from the bottom third; hells bells - I think I actually took the entire bottom third! But that also included stuff that was growing up in the center. (I didn't defoliate anything from the top yet, I was worried because what I took actually amounted at about 1/3 of a kitchen trash bag - the top center will be tomorrow and only a few leaves each day over the next few days).

Unfortunately now her top looks ROUGH; hopefully by tomorrow she won’t look so bad. Also a pic of a bit of root porn for ya’ll.

Just a bit of root porn; that is almost like a basketball!

Now, as for what I’ve done different this time around vs last is this:

• I used Rapid Start rooting enhancer this time, but I didnt just use it in the beginning - I think I actually used it for the first full 8 weeks; only recently stopped adding it to her nute mix. I think this helped strengthen her root mass and thus helped her growth
• I made use of the drip ring long after her roots hit the water; I think that by doing this, the rooting hormones, hydroguard, and beneficial bacteria all got distributed throughout the root mass - not just at the bottom where in the water. I know this *shouldn't* matter because everything goes up *through* the roots, but well, thats my guess on the matter.
• That second point plays into when I’ve been having to add her daily gallon of nute mix because she’s drinking so much. I haven’t been lifting the lid and adding it to the res … just been dumping it straight at the base of the plant and letting it go through the hydroton into the res.

So there you have it; just a few things I did differently this go around that I wonder if they’ve made a positive impact. OBVIOUSLY her @Mars Hydro FC-3000 is responsible for (I believe) most of it - but every little bit helps!

Wow. Just stellar. VERY good job on the undercarriage. You just increased your yield. Congrats! Was it scary? Looks to my eyes like you took just what you should have. You might consider holding off now on the top defol for more than 24 hours. Lots of people feel this is irrelevant, I for one don't - you just took the bottom third of the plant. If it were me, I would give her a couple days to recover, if there's going to be any. Maybe she'll keep chugging right along and didn't even notice it, but also maybe she did and she'll slow for a day or two. When I see she has slowed I usually take that as a sign that I should wait a bit before stressing her out again. Just two cents for you. Great job.

Thanks - and yes, it was scary when I stopped and looked at the pile of what I took off; hubby’s jaw dropped and he said, “What happened?!?!” LOL

Yup - gonna wait a bit to see if she needs anything from the upper area taken; definitely dont want her to hermie on me!!!

In the meantime, might I suggest a daily leaf tucking session?

 

[InTheShed]

Great job on the thinning and the plant looks just like it should. I'm not sure anything will need to come off going forward since the weight of the buds will keep it spreading out and the blowing fans will keep the leaves dancing.

Good morning J Bird

I love a good hair cut. I too usually take one third of the bottom petticoat.

She sure looks purdy ma’am (I typed that in my best southern accent btw)

You got ANOTHER sponsor to join? Isn't that two? Wow, nice work.

Lol - no, same one!

 

[cjsbabygirl313]

Wow - just got our new iPhone 13’s … four stinking hours to set it up! What is just so messed up is that there is literally nothing wrong with our other phones, but we had to get new ones because they’re shitting shutting down the 3G and 4G networks and our old iPhones weren’t 5G compatible. What a freaking scam!

 

[Jon]

Lol - no, same one!

Oh duh. Well nice work anyway. Lol.

 

[InTheShed]

they’re shitting down the 3G and 4G networks

You must have trained your autocorrect very well that it went from "shutting" to "shitting"!

This seems like the perfect spot for an off color joke told in safe language:

What does old lady cooter taste like?

Depends.

I’d like to find an AC infinity temperature/humidity controller that I can plug my own heater and humidifier into, but can’t seem to find one; I did find an Inkbird that meets that need - anyone have any experience with them?

Do your heater and humidifier turn themselves back on once shut off? Mine don't.

Sweet work on the major trim! I knew you had it when I saw your handful of brush!

Yup! They sure do!

(I didnt touch that yesterday but god it looked like a hot mess!)
