Right now just Jacks Citrus FeED. I add some calmag or Epsom salts every other watering. I'm waiting on some replies to emails I sent out this weekend. I Want to pick up a bag of Jacks Aqua Gold Finisher to finishe these off with.

The frost is really coming on now. The SB looks like she'll be caked over by harvest!

Gotta love those frosty buds! I'd never heard of Jacks Citrus FeED before. Google'd it and found it is a citrus tree fert. 20-10-20 so probably have to use a little to go a long way on the herbs. Wonder if it could be used in a hydro setup? A hell of a lot cheaper than most hydro nutes. Sure looks like its working well for your girls.

I'm a week behind you on the flip (starting week 3)my girls are starting to crown up a bit. My FP's are pretty bushy (LED?) and maybe 2-3+ feet tall, I'll have to measure. I been adding grow pics to my grow room build thread as I didn't want to start a journal for my first ever real indoor grow. https://www.rollitup.org/t/started-my-first-grow-room-come-along-for-the-ride.857393/ It's almost a blog at this point. I'll try and add some new pics of my girls tomorrow.

The citrus feed is awesome stuff! I switched to it last grow, and have not looked back. Switching to Jacks and Sunshine #4 has made growing so much easier with being able to control everything the plants get.

So the heavy feed last night got the SB back on track. I just fed the FP and ED2 pretty heavy as well. Everything should be back to green tomorrow! (Pun INtended) :bigjoint:. Maybe I'll get another group shot as the light boots again.

Hey Figgy, I have seen great results from folar feeding the ED's. I am going to have to look into the citrus feed as well, I'm not sure if my girls are getting the most they can, thanks.

I'm telling you, for salt ferts it is the shit. RM3/Riddleme turned me on to it. Cheap, easy, and stupid effective. [(Edit) - It is a complete feed so you really need nothing else. The only reason I add the calmag is due to the soiless mix with a lot of coco in it.] Though my heavy feed last night didn't green the FP and ED2 as much as I thought. You can see they are still a lighter green. ED1 is about perfect right now, so I'm using her as my standard. Looks like even stronger for next feed.

So if you are using in a soil less grow how diluted do you go? Ratio water/fert or PPM/EC? Just wondering as it sounds doable as a hydro fert. albeit strong and will need dilution.

Last night it was 1Tbsp/G. Not sure what the PPM was. I'll have to check it next time for you.

Yeah she is. This is the first time I've let one go without any topping. I'm expecting a forearm cola!

@Beer Belly - so my nute mix was 3G tap water, 1ml/G Pro Tekt, 1/8 tsp/G Epsom salt, and 1Tbs/G Citrus FeED. PPM was 685. I have no clue what the PPM is individually. I might try to test that tomorrow.

Thanks man I'll have to file that recipe away for the future. Your buds are getting frosty and lookin' great! Wish I could take pictures as good as you do. My cheap camera needs an upgrade, but then so does it's operator...

Lol! That pic was taken with a Sony RX100 through my Oakleys. I just needed to dim the light reflection off the plant. I would suggest Dyna Gro for hydro. That stuff is supposed to be awesome and cheap. Been around forever too.

Just realized as I fed the other 2 girls tonight that I was way to high to give accurate information. The Citrus FeED was not 1 tablespoon/G, but 1 teaspoon/G. Just wanted to clear that up.

Group shot day 30. I missed the beginning of start up on the bulb.

All the girls look great! The FP and ED2 have taken well to the last heavy feeding at around 790ppm. Slight nitrogen tox in the FP with the tips slightly angled down, but looking very good again :weed:
