the mix is a basic 40/40/20 peat /per-lite/cast
i am in a legal position to do this, all my kids have left home and i am 48, i dontwant to buy it due to PGR and chemicals and not knowing what other chemicals i am taking with my meds,
with fish bone, kelp, limestone, gypsum, alfalfa, basalt, srp, mbp, bran, fed em1, fulvic, and starchy scraps beet and potato,

5 gal buckets, hope to be 1 week veg and flip flower, there root have been in smaller pots for weeks so they built up good and and a good infection in the root of irrigularis
sip, and quad based off @Azimuth recommendations hes /she is a legend
i need cannabis medicinally the system failed me, and this helps GW meds fcuked me up and stopped my heart now i am left damaged as a result, slowly cannabis relieves or cures my problems, so i am grateful for help ,
i keep these diarys as a way to keep tracks and to get any help if any problem occours, aswel as being able to check back and see my self, i seem to find every way to fail , without failing you cant learn to succeed

Nice start @Pondwater !

When you say 1 week veg, you mean one more, right?

Nothing like growing your own meds. In fact, growing them is medicine in itself!

I'm not familiar with Aquapots. Can you give us some detail?

 

[Pondwater]

sure, its a vale

sure its a valve from a hydro system i found that like a float valve, but it allowed the tray to empty entirely, before filling up using s suction system,
this allows the pot to basicly totaly dry out, before it refills the res, each pot has one adapted inside with silicone,

going grand and on day 9 of jan we are day 6! been down the creek helping some friends today being an electrician they needed some help on their moorings building, stuck doors and dodgey electronics, snowing out and im waist deep in water done this 40 years so i am used to it , hoped to see some bears that was causing trouble but never insight when you have your gun out and ready ,
hope alls been good with uguys, mainly azu, as the rest are sky or scared of my accent
@Azimuth do i keep tying arms down ? i only have the main 4 tied down and the side arms are now going crazy , do i leave them all be or tie em down more like get some ropes out ? im stuck with old methods im trying to re teach myself lol, the guide appears to just leave it be but his space out alot more, i don't wanna interrupt the stretch if im not meant to,

otherwise, my sativas are crazy same height as me, i will tie them to the wall as i am doing no training on them lol, i wana see their growth patterns for my breeding next round
growth is happening each day my indicas have leaves like dinner plates, and the yellow tips at the top are starting from stretch, i am thinking to spray kelp ? or gypsum?

i have topdressed with EWC and Alfalfa bran and barley malt to feed the fungal feed them and keep top layer from drying somuch, i will mulch with some leaves when i strip them , until then they have bucket lids

growth on each strain is crazy different and the stem rubs insane

 

[Azimuth]

Those are some big ass leaves!

A quadline is a great technique to get a very symmetrical and productive plant. How far out you train them depends on available lateral space. Also know that once you finally let them go vertical they're grow both up  and out a bit so be sure to account for that.

If growing indoors under lights, once they are about as wide as you want them, let them go up, but then you have to account for distance to your light as well as the stretch. Some sativas are supposed to stretch 3x what they were when flipped so don't let them get too tall before flipping the lights.

Looking good. They seem to like somethin' you're doing!

Day 6 flower buddy so ther flips that’s what I mean do I just leave them now or train through stretch ? I got room , trained them to the size of the pot 3week flip like we discussed as 25l pots ,


I got some feed coming for later 4-2-6 and 5-2-5 rye maize ferment and a beet potato ferment ,and fulvic acid , full o nutes and aminos starches etc will start feeding from week 3 one at a time with water between feeds
There not fert ferts more microbe feeds that hold nutes

That’s why I kept the sativa at the edge as I gona train it round the top of the room lol

I know some growers do train through stretch but I do not. Once i flip I clean up the lowers between weeks two and three to allow better air flow and remove the sIngle little buds that won't amount to much, but other than that I let them grow.

Too much stress in flower can cause hermies so I figure the less I deliberately cause, the better.

[Azimuth]

Lots of white pistils still so you've got a ways to go so I'd keep feeding for sure.
