LSD & Brainstorm Soil vs Hydro Showdown from Clones

Week 5 Day 1: Flower Time!
I transplanted all of the girls today and switched them over to 12/12. I'll be adding more 2700k as we go. I kept them in their original soil tests, Pro-Mix and MG, but I also added some perlite and bone meal. The pro-mix needed more drainage so they got a bit more perlite, and the MG seems to be quite lacking on the Phosphorous so it got more bone meal. I'm only using the fox farm trio, not the other stuff like beastie and cha ching. I am curious though if I can add in a 1/4tsp of other supplements like grow fine or MG 10-53-10 using the directions where fox farm says to add cha-ching to the mix for phosphorous. Any feed back on this? I am adding some molasses every now and again on non fertilizer waterings.

welcome aboard! I have fun no matter what kind of grow I'm doing lol

Nice looking bunch there !got to keep an eye on this,might start a flower thead for the "sleeskunk"plant i got going now in 2nd week of flower,so healthy!Anyway..lol...i read your last post and looked at pics and i would say not to mess with your nutes to much,maybe raise the P,K.a little but make sure theres enough magnesseum to help take in the boost of P,K.!but other then that collor is good and leaves look good,i always say lights as close as posible!And i have done the testing..1 big light better then 3 small lights...I veg under 1 200 watt (made for growing ) cfl 60 acctual watts...and grows are always optimum .Tried to grow 1 with 3 100w cfl 71 acctual watts, and it and other test subjects where small....And for flowering same but 2700k and 1 300w cfl thats 64 actal watts and have much luck ...but i added 1 more 300w for flowering ..heres a pic with when it was growing with just the 200 w ...............this was 7 weeks grow and 1 week flowering at time of pic!ok not the first pic...lol

wow, im liking this i think i maye subscrib.... so you vegged those for 4 weeks? idk if its just me but they look a little stretched ? sorry not trying to bash on ya at all their healthy looking as fuck lol hats off to ya lol im in my second week of my ak-47 scrog and their not looking anything like your second week of those ladys ^ congrats to both of you though very interested on how this little ecperiment comes out lol

Came home last night to find severely damaged leaves all over every plant after using ecosmart organic spray shit that says it kills mites and eggs. Well it kills the plants too. Not sure if they will be able to recover.

Holy sucky!!!Ill be praying for your girls! .....was it a bad infestation?

Would love to try it. I was going to make one up with peppermint oil, rosemary oil, and naga jalokia peppers.


Heres a pic of the day after spraying. Since then, they've been in reveg (about 2 weeks) and starting to turn around. Had to top at least a third of each of them so I have room when they go flower again. 1 is already dead, and I might kill off a couple more that don't look that great. I'll need the extra space now since they have 10+ tops instead of a couple. Also because I'll be getting some ak-48 and og kush soon.

Here is 3 weeks in reveg after the mite spray. All the plants had to be topped in half and super trimmed to get rid of the burned up leaves. 1 hydro and 2 or 3 soil didn't make it... I guess I had too many anyway, right? lol I might even give 1 or 2 away to free up room for new clones.



These are the clones from my first grow. Look a lot better than their mommas.

Well I'm down to 6 soil girls ready to go back into flower. I have some lady bugs on order that are gonna spend the flower season with them since I've already lost 3 weeks.. I should have just quarantined what I had and started from new, but it is what it is. I had some root aphids or some stupid small bug in the hundreds eating away on the roots of the girls. NFC why they came there, but luckily they arent in the tank with my 4 sativa clones. I'm loving that smoke and can't await some more, and maybe some seeds off the fresh clones =P It's an extreme cerebral buzz with a body side shot and makes me feel like a damn slinky. (Medically speaking) I just made some cannabutter and will have some no-bakes tomorrow =P

I'll continue updating the soil girls as it will still be somewhat of a MG vs Pro mix, but there is no more hydro in the test drive =(.
