Photoperiod Mark’s MedicGrow LED + KNF grow

So glad that the ladies are back on track now! My last watering I did go ahead and try to start the bloom feeds but 2 girls got minor tip burn in a few spots which I suspect may be the bloom ferment! I haven’t strained my full spectrum so used some from my stockpile and did mango/kiwi but lil stronger dose then usual which is prob the culprit! The 2 garlic sherbert tho took the feed and kept on a trucking!

Cannarado/ Weave Match

Purple stipules

Dragon seeds/ Wedding Drake
Seems to be a mag hog! I’ll try to add something just for her! 1/2 gal each pot makes dosing easy!

Purple stipules and pistols popping!

In house genetics/ Garlic Sherbert 1

Purple stipules and pistols already!

Garlic sherbert 2

No pistols but also has the purple stipules!

And the 1/2gal every 3 days seems to be on point for now! Plants are happy and soil in every pot is happy and on point!

Ladies all back happy n making healthy green leaves! No more lime green craziness! Now just a matter of keeping em happy thru the finish line! Hoping that’s sooner then later so I don’t run outta flowers!

Will say the @Medic Grow LED is working great! Not sure I’ll need to hit 100% on dimmer but we’ll see! On 80% for now and keeping rh around 65% I can keep tent about 85-87 with intake fan and temp controller!

Been slacking on updates cuz plants had been giving me grief! Got em all greened up and started going light green again on me! Couldn’t figure out why they were so hungry but finally doing something in the pots I had to pull the mulch back and realized I’ve got fungus gnats or something running around in my soil! Now wishing I had ordered nematodes back when I set these pots up! Ordered 5million yesterday that’ll go out Monday to be here Wednesday! Til then not giving nutrients so I can instead water in a 4:1 ratio of h2o2 so I can kill any newly hatched larvae and then the nematodes can take care of the rest! I’m just glad I finally noticed them before they were so far into bloom that it totally screwed my harvest up!

I’ll try to update more often as I wage war on my soil invaders so we can see how quickly the nematodes do their thing! Not positive it’s fungus gnats cuz I haven’t seen anything flying around but they sure looked similar but were crawling all over top of the soil! Regardless what they are they aren’t welcome and it’s time for them to go!

Well I went ahead and chopped everything on Sunday night! They were all as ready as they were gonna get and I needed the pots so I could treat my soil for whatever stupid bugs are lingering or just replace my soil if it comes to it! Wasn’t trying to get another 5 gallons of soil since can’t get the cheapo promix anywhere nearby and shipping is nuts so would leave me buying soil from local organic shop for $28 a bag but whatever I do it’ll be soon cuz already time to transplant next round!

I didn’t realize I didn’t get pics of the dragon seeds wedding drake but she got the brunt of what I’d assume may be bug related deficiencies but I guess could also be from me actually keeping a constant 1.5vpd which would make em eat more and maybe I shoulda got braver with the amounts I was feeding each amendment!
Hey @WildBill i know Van grows them outdoors so how closely do u follow his feed recommendations? Wondering if I got vpd up where plants naturally eat more should I start adding more u think? Gonna also order me a blumat moisture meter so I can make sure it’s not issues related to watering these living soil pots possibly a tad too much! May make my life easy and just get some damn blumats to do the hard part for me! Damn earthbox lifestyle threw my hand watering game off big time!

Other then it running hotter then I’d like in my bedroom the @Medic Grow LED Fold 8 light def did the job well! Prob woulda been even better had I checked ppfd for the height I had light! Wasn’t til like last 2 weeks realized I had it hanging too high so lowered it and got it up to almost 900ppfd on only 80% power! Would def run cooler without driver attached but not sure it’s removable without hacking and chopping the light up!
