Two beatiful apollos flowering start to finish

Looking good! I'm in for the ride.

You use only super soil with that? I am way into organic. Now that I can grow, I want get more organic. I will sub. to see your organic, see if I can learn something....rw

Ohhhhh, nice . In for the ride...

I use super soil starting around week 4 when they got their final transplant (surrounded in supersoil and topdressed). I've been using the Pure Blend/Pro product line through veg and early flower whenever I see yellowing progressing in the bottom leaves. My apollos and others I've heard of seem to like a lot of N even several weeks into flower so I'm planning on hitting them with some as needed up to 4-5 weeks if I see yellowing at the bottom. I'm hoping I can keep them green as far into flower as possible hoping the supersoil alone will be enough but with apollo I doubt it based on what I've heard. I just got cuts of both plants to root today so the genetic line will live on, which is great because I am very sure based on what i've already quick dried from topping that these plants are going to be super killer - if a plant can give me a body high from topped growth chutes in veg (from the males of the batch even) then it's going to be some crazy stuff when it's done. They're also the hardiest/easiest to grow plants of the bunch, especially #1 - nothing phased her that caused problems for the rest. I'm going to make the switch to aerated teas at some point but probably not for a while since the PBP wasn't exactly cheap so I'm gonna use it And I've had good results with it before.

I'm a bit concerned that the buds are only this far along at 13 days I got these kind of buds between 7-10 days before and solid pistils from 14-21 days and i'm just now starting to get real pistils. Never grown in super soil before wondering if maybe the extra N might delay the flower development a bit.

Day 22 of flower - getting resiny and frosty - visible bud growth every day - supersoil seems to be great for LED grows -- not having the same micronutrient deficiencies other LED growers have reported.

Looking good!

OK one apollo is lagging behind I think she is too close to the lights I'm moving them up before they go back under tomorrow about 5-8". The buds 4-5" down from the top seem to be fatter than the top buds closest to the lights which seem to be not progressing very much. The other one is the same distance from the lights but looking great. Still going to move lights up though. The healthier one is packing on the weight and the frost day by day. The other one was about the same last update and is slowly lagging behind the longer flower goes on. I'm going to give her a topdressing of supersoil tomorrow as I did do that for the other one in the last week.

How many times do you top dress soil and when? They are looking very good!..rw
