Sorry to hear of the difficulties SV.

I bought, and am growing, some Horse-Tail, as I have
read that it makes an effective anti-fungal tea that works
wonders on PM.

Good luck,

JD

Hoping that's all behind me as I have new equipment new room with more space. It's nice being out of a tent.
It was all my own fault as I got slack with keeping the tent clean and not acting as soon as I see something wrong, but no more.

My Scotts OG beans from Rare Dankness popped today. 7 beans total, we'll see how many are females!
Anyone have experience with any of the RD strains under 12/12? I have a few 501stOG beans left, but I'd rather save them for a full veg grow if they'll prefer it.

Yes..yes..and no:)
Read thru and ask questions in the led sub-section.When cloning you want at least 18 hrs of light.

Organic soil mix question: When growing 12 12 from seed, would your soil mix require less N as we're almost completely skipping the veg stage? Would ladies under 12 12 from seed benefit from a higher p and k ratio?

Ok. Thx for your answer. I thaught so, that cloning will be impossible without a different veg room for a mother. i asked it because i wanna do Rotationgrow in my small box. So i hope for new seeds in my plant to grow in Rotation with then;)
And i will do LST i think. My Box is not that high. I hope i can handle the plants there^^ But i`ll give it a try.

I like a balanced npk......I use a cheap potting soil from the dollar General,MG works too.Then add perlite and some organic granules,Jobes or espoma 4-4-4.That said all strains are different so i'd recommend doing some experimenting if you are using strains you plan on keeping around.GL

when do most strains show sex going 12-12 from seed, i'm sure it fluctuates but whats average, 3-4 weeks?

YEP!:)3-4 weeks......BUT I've had some show sex in 14 days,rarely longer than 28 days.GL

I have 7 different Scotts ogs that I may run in different soil mixes to see if there will be a difference. My thinking was that the N in the soil wouldn't get used up as much as the p and k, since the veg period would only technically be from when it popped til the sex shows (Correct?).
Maybe I'll make a side by side journal if I don't forget.

My scotts og ladies are on their ~43rd day, most showed their sex between 20 and 30 days. IMAG0490.jpgIMAG0465.jpg The air planters on the right with 2 ladies in each are my own organic super soil mix. And the other two are a mix of bagged soil and some organic amendments for a small side by side comparison. They're currently between 9 inches and 16 inches. I'm only using a 150 watt hps and a ~50 watt cfl (for my clover planters in the corners of my area).

Just popped in to say I have great luck popping seeds in my flower room @ 12/12. Seeds seem more energetic when put in the pot of a flowering plant. I don't even change nutes or watering schedule (moderate bloom formula). They take a beating too. It helps when the seeds are from other grows and not costing anything. After a couple of weeks I transplant and "cheat" by putting them back in veg as I need to main line them before going back to a flower schedule.
