Lighting Robwars LED Run (Home Thread)

Ha! Thanks Insert!! I asked for it as far as the boring goes .... PH issues aren't boring so I got what I deserved. I saw that BM harvest thread as well and boy oh boy it looked like some chronic .
I'm stoked on the photos as well, gonna pop a couple clones off of each one before I throw them into flower. Should be interesting.

Your water technique that you mentioned in a previous post is what I do as well. I nute with AN nutes and supplements, and water with at least a 1 gallon for each gallon airpot. I find this flushes the plant throughly, throughly drenches it but also keeps the ph balance of the soil perfect. I stopped phing my soil at all.

I think I'm done with airpots to be honest. I watered one of my photos today that's in a 5.2 gallon airpot, I used 2 gallons and I got nearly 2/3 of it back.... I even went slow and easy and took my time and that shit just drained right out the sides of the pot. Plus what a fucking mess, it's like a 2 hour production if I have to water all my girls at the same time and I only have 6 plants going right now. As far as the ph goes, what type of soil are you using and which AN line as well? Sounds awesome.

Well I water in the bathtub so could give a shit about the mess. The water coming out of the airpot is the way its intended...you get 100% drainage rather then it sitting. The soil gets saturated and out with the rest. Really only takes like 5 min to nute and water then I let it sit in the tub for 30 min and done. Easy.

I use Farm Soil. For nutes I use Advanced Sensi Grow and Bloom A/B, Bontainicare Cal Mag, Dutch Master Gold Silica, Advanced Nutrients Big Bud, Bud Candy and Carboload.

HEres why I like airpots...massive plants! This is Afghan Kush Ryder Auto Ive posted it on here before but its in a .8 gallon Airpot and its 29-30 inches tall by 24 inches wide. Both the ones I grew last grow got that big.

Very well put rhapsody, I like the way you think. You're making me reconsider the thought of ditching the airpots.... Nice freaking plant by the way :smokebuds:https://www.autoflower.org/members/rhapsodyrcks/

Well if drainage is a issue I dont think there for everyone but if you can do it in a tub or a big plastic container over a grill or something then they work just fine...but trying to water in your grow area with those sucks.

Update time

BB #1 is a fighter!!! She's bounced back from her PH issues and is a swelling machine! 60 days old

BB #2 at 60 days.

If anyone can identify and diagnose the rusty fan leaves I would greatly appreciate it. It happens to all of my plants late in life every time, I almost think I'm giving them something they don't need in mid to late flower.

Blue Mammoth at day 44. She's living up to her name but she's slow. Her flowers have pretty much looked the same for almost 2 weeks. Come on girl!! Getty Up!!

On to the photos
Group shots
Strawberry Blue (L) and Blue Widow (R) in their home. Both have been in veg for 45 days. Added my second light yesterday cause I'm flipping these bitches next week .

BW (L) SB (R)

Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it!! All is well in Blue Land :smokebuds:

Thank you SS.

Yes, I'm using sensi/cal grow and bloom but with the Trio right now. Looking into the switch to AN's full (organic) line up but I'm trying to 1- master the nutes and 2- run out of the nutes before I go switching it up. AN's shit is fucking pricey.

Here's what I gave the BB's at 59 days

All mixed into 2 gallons of rain water

4 drops Super Thrive
1 Tsp Silica
2 Tsp Bio Roots
4 Tsp of Flora Nectar
1 Tsp of Sensi Cal Bloom
2 Tsp of SensiZyme
6 Tsp of Big Bloom
2 Tsp of Cha Ching

1080 ppm at 6.4 ph

I usually go 2 feedings with additives and grow or Tiger Bloom and a small dose of the crystals (open sesame, beastie bloom, or cha ching, depending on their age).
Then I'll give them 1 feeding of additives and a huge dose of the Crystals. That's what I did above.
