This will be a ongoing perpetual journal.
I will begin this journal with the following 3 plants and the story behind them as we jump in midway here.
This is a clone given to me from someone who popped a bagseed and got a female out of it. No idea what it is other than the fact its bagseed. Its about 5 weeks old and has been growing slowly. Its former method of nutrients was Miracle Gro 10-20-10 every other water.
Next we have a regular bagseed I popped for shits and giggles. Its just a regular seed and not fem'd. It too has been growing slow and was fed the same Miracle Gro every other water. Its over a month old too. Notice the nodes of 3 leafers.
And finally we have Trainwreck which was given to me by the same donator of the bagseed clone above. It was popped from a fem'd seed. I received this plant in bad shape and have had it for 8+ weeks and I just cannot nurse this thing back to health. I have flushed it 2 times. Also I have used my homemade CalMag+ from Emilya's recipes. It has given me a run for the money and I am about ready to give up on it. Like the others it was fed every other water with Miracle Gro. Its never put out a non clawed leaf for me yet. Its clearly locked out. One might point the finger in the direction of my ph pen calibration technique....please chime in.
I have been using baking soda and water to calibrate my ph pen. I am using this mixture as a 7.9 reference number to calibrate to. My tap water is currently in the 7.9 -8.1 range. I have been using vinegar to bring down the ph watering to 6.0. But, just how reliable is my baking soda and tap water control?
I have just received a delivery of Mega Crop and have given all these plants their first watering with slightly over 2 gallon watering can (2.38 gallons) and 1 Tablespoon of Mega Crop. Probably a little high to start off with, but lets observe what happens from here.
Let me add that I have just come home from a 12 day vacation and with the exception of the Trainwreck (its always been bad) this is the shape of how my son cared for them while I coached him from 8000 kms away. I ph and mollases watered them before I left and they have not been watered the entire time I was gone. The bottom of all the pots had more than decent water in them but the top was bone dry. Id guess my roots are not happy. So this is day 1 of the Mega Crop watering.
I currently have my light dimmed down all the way it can go and have it at about 14 inches from the plants. Using the Android app Light meter I am reading around 40k lumens at the top of Trainwreck, 32k lumens at the top of the bagseed clone, and finally 22k lumens at the top of the regular bagseed.
Come, enjoy your time with me at Schloss Von Blurple!
