shes looking REALLY good and quite large considering shes barely two weeks old!!! She was born a xmas baby on Dec 25th, I suck at math but I think that makes today day 13ish LOL
She just started pre flowering, I took some close ups of the pistils man these pics are taken with my CELL PHONE! LOL .. Cant wait to take final pics of the trichs(if possible) with this thing... I actually bought this phone specifically to take pictures of my grows, as its easier to just email the pics to myself through my phone than it is to plug in a cord and transfer im lazy I guess..
anyways she looks like shes going into flowering now... I ran her on a 24/0 light schedule from birth until yesterday, now I have her on a 19/5 flowering schedule(the AFN light survey was almost a split between 20/4 & 18/6, so I did the median of the two LOL). She sits next to the gas fireplace, which I run for 15 minutes every hour or so just to burn off some gas and create c02

My soil experiment has been AMAZING so far... nothing but ph R.O. water on it, no deficiencies, no burns, no signs of anything other than good, fast, healthy growth....... I forget who it was that very smartly commented or asked how I planned to keep the soil moist all the way through without having either dry pockets, or over-watering. BRAIN FART ON MY PART...I FORGOT TO EXPLAIN THE MAIN REASON I USE THE SOILESS MIX I DO.. cause it is the answer to why I dont have that problem ever....
Regardless of what organic based mix I use, whether pre-made, or home-made, I ALWAYS add LOTS of perlite to it at about a 50% rate.... For this go around, I started with Canna Bio Terra-plus for my organic base mix and added some fully organic, time release granules of feather meal, fish meal rock phosphate, guano etc etc into that Canna mix with the intentions of never having to feed the plant at all during the entire grow....THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IS MY PERLITE MIX RATE... You want your soil to be able to hold water, but porous as possible. When I am mixing the perlite and bio soil I know I have the PERFECT ratio when I can squeeze the mix in my hand and it holds together when I let go, BUT IT HAS TO BREAK/FALL APART INSTANTLY AS SOON AS I TOUCH IT AGAIN..... So in other words IM USING THE SOIL ONLY TO HOLD THE PERLITE TOGETHER!!!s the best way I can describe it
