My Grow Report

yes, soak your smart pots. I use a slow water and feel the sides of the fabric and wait till it penetrates the sides. Then I make sure that I get at least an inch of run off to make sure that the plant is completely watered very thouroughly.this is with coco. are you coco. I don't spray anthing for preventative measures. I don't like spraying at all. your not adding nutes? yea I would def be adding nutes at this point. would have started a while ago to be honest.

Argh was told to wait but its all good. Ill prob add 1/4 strength Soil A + B tomorrow or tuesday.

what size pots?

Transplanted from solo cups to 3 gallon smart pots 21 days ago into ocean forest\perlite\verm. Bottom leaves are yellowing amd growth might have slowed, I did LST so its hard to tell.

I personally don't think you need 1/4 strength. Id go full strength. Not aggressive but normal strength. Its been so long sense I've used soil A&B so i don't recall how many ml that is. Is your top booster opened?

Lol no why I should send it back?? Id only get like 15$ after shipping, I mix A wait 10mjn then mix B wait 10min, adjust ph then pour? I have GH ph up\down and Nectar for the gods organic ph up.

2- I watered the plants extra good, I have horticulture green twisty ties hooked around top and duck taped to my plastic water catcher at bottom making it impossible to get runoff, how can I switch this?

Well you got it right. A then B then ph. Then add Drip Clean. I would not use the Top Booster. I did for years. Its a high pk booster that really burns the shit out of leafs. I use the multizen and love it. And in a 3 gallon pot i use a little less then half gallon of water per plant. And also as i mentioned go full strength.

One more question before I do this sorry, I heard with drip clean you are supposed to use it "from the start." Im all good to start now?

So you've only used ph water to this point correct? And yea Drip Clean after you ph the A&B.

I havnt phed the water cuz I was told you shouldn't with soil, I have ph and ppm meters and check the ppm in run off.

I just mainly use tap water I let sit out.

I was looking @ buying this Fan & Filter combo from walmart cuz I have a gift card there, my dam hood is 8in though.

that fan/filter combo is cool. Walmart is selling grow gear now.Ha!
you should be able to find a metal piece called a reducer or something like that in the ducting section at Lowes or HOme depot that u can put on your 8 inch and it then reduced to 6 or 4 inch for proper connecting.
I use General Hydroponics Flora Nova Bloom nutes that have ph buffers so I never worry about ph. Whats your tap ppm running and whats your ph at? I don't do soil so cant help you there.
U really just need to be able to take those little plastic catchers off . When I water mine I put them in a different catcher that can handle overflow. Then once they have drained place them back into the plastic catchers. having a garden is a lot of work.lol ur doing GREAT!

Nectar of the gods phttp://www.walmart.com/ip/Virtual-Sun-4-Inline-Exhaust-Grow-Light-Fan-Carbon-Air-Filter-Scrubber-Cleaner/41864057

The president of Nectar for the gods seemed very interested in giving me samples so go ahead and message him, if you need it. So far my cat just plays on the box!

No bugs so far and I got black posterboard as suggested, going to make a slot for the stem and cover the soil. Will this in turn, make an even better home for bugs? Now that I think about it, probably not if it has had positive results for people.

***I was looking at buying the above fan and filter, I have a 8 inch duct booster fan, says its 420 cfm but idk. Id have to buy an 8 inch filter then and it couldnt handle that. My hood is 8 inch radiant (hydrofarm,) wouls 4 inch inline with 4 inch filter work? Tent=4x4
