Nice, I use 7g most frequently but if i wanna take a chance on a potentially great strain i go 15gal. Currently have a sin mint cookies in a 15g thick as hell.
Sounds awesome. I did all 7 gallon smart pots for that round. I got some blue cheeses and boss hogs to cut down still but I slid over the first six for my next round. They're in ten gallon smart pots this time out!

Plants look healthy bro how long did you veg for?
I vegged for like month and 3/4 close to 2 months, the plants are actually in a reused reammended soil from last year with crab shell 2-3-0, kelp meal 1-0-2, alfalfa meal 3-2-0, think i had some marine cuisine in there the first grow 10-7-7, earth worm castings 1-0-0, buffallo loam 1-1-1, and Ful-humix, also have live worms in my soil for fresh castings and to help break down some of the ammendments. In veg fed with some buffallo loam earth worm casting kelp meal when first transplanted to first containers. top dressed with alfalfa meal once a months, rotated slow release blood meal 10-0-0, and mexican bat guano 8-1-1. I fed mollasses watering before last one to feed the soil web and give plants that calcium, potassium, magnesium, etc It's got plenty of nitro in there considering I transplanted in 45 gallon when I put it in flower, thats why I don't really add it in flower. Forgot to add my base soil is promix mixed with promix ultimate organic, coco coir brick, sunshine natural and organic, and botanical garden compost. The ones u saw were the ones in 7 gallon pots in unused supersoil that cooked for close to a year, these are the ones in 45 gallon smart pot they are close to being 5 foot tall 3 weeks in flower. That dust u see is micronized sulfur that was put on the leaves to kill the white flies before the pistols started exploding out sunday, after the 2-27-23 feed. they are only on fan leaves and not the pistols.

Ive been using the General Organics Go Box line up to feed my girls. Very impressed with how well this stuff works.
I was not impressed at all with that line of nutes. Saw 3 grows done with it and all where sub par. Over priced to many bottles of voodoo snake oil in a bottle. KISS keep it simple all you need is NPK nute, PK booster in flower and calmg source. I fell victom to the bomb large harvest in a bottle(s). At one point i was using 7 different bottles of nutes at any one time with 2-3 bottles changing with veg and flower cycles. Now i use 2 nutes in veg and add in 2 more in flower. Veg Bloom Dirty for veg and flower, Botanicare calmg to replenish my ro water, in flower i add Botanicare Sweet either Raw or Berry and GH Liquid Kool Bloom as a PK boost in mide to later flower. If the GO nutes are working for you then just tell me to piss off and keep it up, just saying i have seen better results with less expesive and fewer nutes. Also was not a fan of the GO calmg, lowered the ph a lot.

I feed mine milk at a 50/50 ratio or 25/75 when crop is young and again bout flower time,,is loaded with vi tams ,,iron ,calcium,,,which most plants need during rapid veg growth,,,,,,, as calcium is the most common deficiency,,if you see rust spots on your leaves probably calcium ,,and if it needs calcium it will need iron and manganese as well just saying,,,,,and my other trick is Molasses,,,,,to feed molasses 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water,,,,Less is more folks ,,,check into it,,,plants love the sugar and carbs and it helps to improve your soil ,,,also at flower time it will almost double tricome production ,,it will increase booth yield and potency if you feed a little milk and molasses,,they are not nutrients but with any thing if you over do it you can make a plant ugly ,,,will add crops have been feed Milk and Molasses for thousands of years ,,this is old school gardening trick ,,corn tomatoes many plants love it,,,On occasion I also use a teaspoon of lime granules ,,,to 1 gallon of water,,,also a big help in soil quality ,,,,,
will add this is my first indoor grow,,my plants just went into flower at 4 foot tall is sour diesel stalks are as thick as a #2 pencil at the tips,,using florescence,,,full spectrum lights,,I have 1 150 watts hps I just turned on to help a bit in flowering

MY Mix
1 gallon pete moss
2 gallons of yard compost,,
2 gallons compost manure ,,,cow poo more less,,,has to be mixed with soil,will add,,
2 gallons of sand
4-6 gallons of Pennington Proffesional potting mix
1/2 cup of lime granules mixed in
hand mixed

Also will add I use a home made CO2 a milk jug each week I rinse it out and add some yeast and sugar,,I have 2 jugs run into a thumper, so I can see it working,,I also spray my plants 3 times a day with a mister bottle,,and once a day with a bottle of seltzer water ,,Plants can digest the CO2 from the carbonated water ,,another old school garden trick but works great,,I give 68 cents for a liter of selzter water at walmart,,your plants will thrive with Co2

I typical use less the what it says for nutrients ,,less is more,,,you over do it you damage the plant if your under it cuts the risk,,,I find lots of folks run nutrients much hotter then needed,,I use a 7-5-5 for veg or in that neighborhood,,,and a 3-10-10 for flower with good results,,,,,,, for younger plants I use 3-1-2 have had real good results from those

Whenever you buy soil, it says that it has fertilizer for 3 months. Are you supposed to ignore that and start using nutes at low dosage after about a month of veg or something ? how does that work?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this

Advanced Nutrients Conneiseur at 50-75% recommended dose. Adding B52, CarboLoad, Roots Accelerator (H&G) and Big Bud. Only using these at half to 75% of what they recommend and loving the results. Curious what other Advanced users are doing..
Will try to get a pic up later - only in week 3 here..
Here is my nutrient line up.
Advanced Nutrients
Sensi bloom a+b/ 12ml per gallon/ weeks 1-6
Bud candy/ 8ml per gallon/ weeks 1-6
Piranha/ 10ml per gallon/ weeks 1-2
Tarantula / 10ml per gallon/ weeks 1-2
Cal-Mag Xtra/ 8ml per gallon/ weeks 1-3
Sensizym/ 8ml per gallon/ weeks 1-6
Big Bud/ 8ml per gallon weeks 2-4
Overdrive/ 8ml per gallon weeks 5-6
Flawless Finish/ 8ml per gallon/ week 7

I do not feed my plants every time I water. I generally feed one day then the next time I give water only. Some strains are more nutrient heavy and I feed more often.

attached image is of a Gorilla F**k clone I received using the Advanced Nutrient line listed above. It was a really nice plant one of the best Gorilla glue crosses I have ever seen.

I bought Canna Terra Vega and Canna Terra Flores for an Auto Northern Light grown in Canna Terra Professional soil. Did I buy the wrong shit or this will do perfectly fine?

How do people on this forum feel about Nectar for the Gods nutrients? I was given a free sample of their advanced line and have been using it at 1/2 strength in week 3-4 of veg. It seems to be working fine but I really have nothing else to compare it to being my first grow.
I never hear anyone talk about it unless I search for it exclusively. It is very rarely mentioned in forum threads about nutrients, I never see it recommended on any grow sites, and when I ask about it nobody seems to use it. Those who donuse it seem to really like it though. Is it just that new of a product? Or is it just not that good? Im going to continue using through this grow to see it through and maybe try something else for my next one.
