I'm flowering using CFls 200w. 20in fan and window cracked...well ventilated. Feeding molasses, worm casting tea once per week and regular bottle water during rest of the week. Epsom salt once per month... 3 plants in one 10 gallon pot. Northern lights aka a pinch more thc than Cali regular
I need help making my buds bigger and more dense. I know better lights and nutes will do the trick but going thru hard times right now and don't have the money. Is there any house hold products I can use???

I heard that drying out banana pills and potato skins...then freezing them and making a tea out of that was what the locals use in humbolt county California. Has anyone had experience using these??

I have some miracle gro bloom booster 15 30 15 was thinking about super diluting it and using it but I really want to stay organic. Should I use or stay organic

I will be uploading pics 2moro....
Please no noobs only experienced growers. I research at least 5hrs per day on techniques and grow journals so I know more than a lil bit

I would turn down ANYTHING MG branded. Always known to burn our babies. General Organics has a done me great. But I've found organic plant food for under 10 that would get by our Hesi TNT has bottles for 16. One for veg and one for bloom. If you go with plant food remember high nitrogen for veg and high proofs for bloom. Bart guano it's cheap and can be added as sip to any nut for a boost of each of these. (Local hydro store for 5-7). Organic is mandatory whatever you choose.

When your plant is 1 week into bloom, cut off any branching Lee than your first. This will push plant to use all energy on making huge top kholas. I am skeptical so I only do this with very very low branching. Another idea is trimming fan leaves back(not of) and it pushes hormones back to stock and eventually pushes ask energy into tops. GOOD LUCK!

Keep them cfls as close to the plants as possible. in the future, one plant per pot. Their roots are probably fighting eachother and that won't help.

CFLs work, you can get yield, but you won't get huge, dense buds off of them. But the more buds that have a light right on them the better.

No hydro shops for atleast 50miles...I checked every garden store. Walmart garden center..home depot garden center..and no luck on guano. Seaweed extract. Kelp extract. Only miracle gro bullshit.
