Indoor California Snow, Black Gold, Pineapple Gum, AK 49 (OxyCal test)

[ochocinco]

I recently got this stuff called OxyCal at my local hydro store and have not been able to find a lot of info on it so I decided to do a test grow. I was not planning on testing the OxyCal which is why it's four different strains but everything else is the same so it should at least give a rough idea if it works. They're in approximately one gallon pots under a 400w MH bulb and in my own soil mix. The California Snow and Black Gold have the OxyCal in their soil and I used Dolomite Lime in the Pineapple and AK.

Stuck inside for the day so figured I would do an update. At day 6 and 7 and they all look healthy. Going to water them on Saturday with Mykos WP, Azos, humic acid, and kelp meal. Will be the first time using Azos so interested to see how well it works. Should probably mention that my soil is a mix of peat moss, manure compost, mushroom compost, EWC, azomite, green sand, rock phosphate, kelp meal, and mykos. Eventually I will start feeding them using EWC with a mixture of guano and what not. Also decided to put up a pic of the berry ryder I have going, she has nothing to do with the test I just decided to take a picture of her too.

Alright time for another update at day ten and eleven. So far the pineapple is outgrowing all of them but the black gold and ak are both not far behind. The ak might actually pass the pineapple soon, she's a bit of a mutant the second set of permanent leaves were individual instead of three pronged kind of weird. At the moment the lime plants are growing better but they all look healthy so that might be more genetics than anything else. I did water Saturday giving them all two cups of the mykos solution but was not able to get the azos due to the weather so if I don't have it by next week I'm just going to try it on the next grow. Any way enough talking and on to pictures.

It is now day 17 and 18 for the plants and they all seem to be doing pretty well. Going to feed them with a guano mix on Monday they should be thirsty by then. So far everything seems to have gone rather steadily except for a bit of stretching by the plants on the right side but I just adjusted the reflector on that. Also I think the slow growth on the Cali Snow has to do with the density of the soil, it felt a bit thick when I was seeing if the soil was dry.

I recently updated my lighting a bit, got a cheapo led. I know I should have waited and saved money to buy a really nice one but I had the money burning a hole in my pocket and it wasn't that expensive. All the bulbs work and there has been good growth so at the very least I can use this light to veg my vegetables before I put them outside if it doesn't work out for these plants. Both of the oxycal plants have shown their pistils, so I think this past monday will be their only veg feeding. Got some calphos spray that I want to try on them when they stop their stretch.
