Welcome, I think. Although Tha' man doesn't usually come to the grow. This is the first time using the Super Thrive, I have recommended it to others. I had a conversation with Maggie at the hydro shop about it one day. She said that if anything can save a sick plant then Super Thrive will. She uses a drop per gallon for all of her flower plants and herbs.
The manufacturer has listed the uses and doses on the back of the bottle, I just follow that. VV

You're doing a fine job. Keep it up ^_^

Some tasty genetics you got there.

I have made a change. Now the computer that was in our bedroom is in my workshop so I can post pictures out here. Soo...guess I should. The temp and humidity levels have been within range. This blueberry plant has burnt leave tips or at least it appears that way. We will be keeping a close watch on it. It is forming it's next two sets of leaves, it may be alright. All 4 of the blueberries are smaller than the other two varieties, don't know if it will stay that way or not, and here they all are. The next pictures are from a few minutes ago, this little lady is the best looking so far. I am going to start setting up the pots to transplant these one final time and put them under the t-5 lights a few days after that. We will hand water them until we are ready to sex them.

This will be the 'a real test' for me, the theory I am following is the opposite of what I had been doing, this is faster growing than I have been doing. I looked back at some pictures of my first big grow. The height comparison with the ones I have flowering now convinced me this will be the right way to go. VV

Another one of our plants is showing some stress,and we will watch it, the blueberry still has the same look on the tips, the rest of the plant looks fine. This first tray has 4 of each variety in it and this one is 1/2 skunkberry, 1/2 nothernberry. After I looked at those two pictures I thought I better group them by variety. The four in the center of the front tray are Blue berry, Ones on the left are SKunkbery and the northern Berry are a little taller which is just what the seed company advertised. And here they are back home. This is the third time watering them with our same additives, So less than $3.00 so far. And this is our total runoff. About right 200ml for two liters. VV

Wow, take one day off with these plants, and they put you to work. I am happy with the results so far. We received the seeds and geminated them on the 25th of Feb, they started popping open and were planted on the 27th and 28th. They have been watered 3 x after the transplant with our five additives. Pretty much two weeks old today and we should think about adding nutes at 1/4 strength, around 300 ppm. We will be adding the Ionic Grow and the Green Fuse Growth Stimulator. They are showing some pretty good growth, first two pictures are from Wed 3/12, next three from today and besides adding nutes we want to check early root development.
Hmmmmm... not to shabby, these pots are 3" by3" by 3 1/2" deep and the roots are at the bottom of the pot...... Here we go on the road again...turn the page.....

very informative VV... nice thread...rep 4 u...

I read the information in Jorge's book about transplanting, he recommend's using an interim size pot. This encourages strong early root development as long as you establish a watering shedule. This is not necessary for some of the hydro systems. I believe it is for flood and drain, drip systems, ebb and flow, run to waste and soil grows. These pots are ideal as far as I am concerned for all but the soil grow. For soil, I would probabaly use a one gallon size interim pot and what a week longer before going to the final 3-3 1/2 gallon size.
Soo I fill the pots about 1/2 full to start with and put a pot the size of my transplant pot in it. Fill it up to about 1" below the top af the pot and then pull out the 'form' leaving the hole. The growing medium is coco-coir rehydrated using ro water.
Hold the pot on the two sides and pull it a little, rotate 90 degrees and do it again. this will lossen your plant from the pot. Now place your fingers around the stem and on top of the soil, turn your hand over and remove the pot. Plant it, Green Side Up, right down the hole, put a little more medium over the top, repeat as necessary, in this case 24 times. Takes less than an hour if you have your medium ready ahead of time.
Now we want to do a couple of more things before we finish. We want to make sure we control algae and we want an easy way to keep track of our plants........up on stage.......turn the page......

These are just cheap foam plates, I think 10", the 8" are to small and these are to big. Its a little heavy handed, using a fostner bit to drill foam, it works. Then

we play paper dolls, make a spot for the stem and write the relevant information, DOB, Variety and transplant date. Costs less than $5.00 for 125.
Tune in later for the finish....VV
