OK @Emeraldgreen . Iām sure Iāll have to edit/add to this. I donāt give my plants much that I have not had conversations with our common mentor about. I wasnāt told what to do, I was given some tools so I could learn for myself. My methods are not scientific. I have found thru a variety of means that plants, MY plants anyways, require way less feeding than I see recommended. Even at reduced levels.
Back to the ārhizoā. My paperwork /record keeping leaves something to be desired. I think Iāve been using the Rhizo for at least 3 years now. I jumped on the opportunity to try something different. I believe I am on v3? I recently started using the 2-part Kaboom foliar boost, and a root boost on my last couple runs. I had comments on some roots I posted not long ago. My plants speak for themselves. I think I do a better than average job, with minimal effort.
Thereās a couple things I use consistently more than anything else. Yucca and gypsum. Iāve been using all my old nutes up. Dynagro. GH Lucas Formula. GH Maxibloom. I buy mag-nit powder, mag powder, and cal-nit powder in bulk. A PK booster too.
Right now I have a plant showing a nute issue. Separate post coming. Nute issues are not normally a problem. I think the yucca and gypsum allow the plants to take what they need.

Good morning CP and all of OG. Do I understand correctly that you have a homebrew recipe for Canna Rhizotonic? Are you using it as a foliar spray?
Your plants always look happy and healthy so whatever you are doing itās working. I think you must be able to read your plants and adjust things pretty well or them girls would be letting you know. Shit, if I tweak things just a little too much they can get a bit angry but when youāre treating em right they sure can be pretty 
Hope you have a fantastic Friday!

BCG13 x Killer Chem @30 days. Pretty much done with any more vertical growth. Good. These have plenty of time to get fat and juicy. I can usually put my plants any spot. I have one here thatās got to stay in the corner, branches pulled down and away from the light. Too nice a plant to get lazy and burn those tips. Iāll try not to. This same plant is the one with some funky leaves I mentioned @Emeraldgreen. I havenāt seen one of my plants look this off, this early for a long time. She got a little adjustment, but Iām trying to avoid anything foliar with all these buds. I like the quick response with foliars.
Iām not picking up much in the way of smells @Kind024 . Iāve been extra congested, so smells and tastes are almost non-existent right now. I gave a couple lowers a pinch. Sticky stuff. Almost felt a little gritty. I think that means something to the hash makers. Maybe?

Awesome play brother @crownpoodle! Those ladies are moving right along. I dig the structure and flower formation. Its only fitting the resin is gritty, they are G13 hybrids. Ill bet they will wash well and make some fire hash. I hope your sinuses clear up soon so you can enjoy the bouquet. I wish I had the time to stop over to visit for a first hand peek and sniff.
Thanks for all your diligence. Those ladies are expressing the love you have for them. Im grateful youāre sharing in the trip bro!
Keep on keepinā on!
Be well my friend.

Good morning dude, how many times did you top that one?

Morning @Hotrods_and_hounds . The one big one in the tent, just once. The top down and outside shots were topped twice. If I donāt get overwhelmed with daily BS, Iāve been liking how twice works for me. I think this would SCROG real nice, if you are inclined to do so. I top the 1st one before I even bother to check sex. @Kind024 has got some good stuff going with Genus Seeds at GLG. Mostly Harmless was awesome too.

3x3 update. Thereās 2 Hawaiian Lime OGEE in the back. In the middle and front are 3 Super Lemon Putang x Run Away Bride. @Hotrods_and_hounds besides trying to top twice, Iāve been trying to keep the low stuff cleaned up.

So then do you let a few extra nodes pop and remove the lower 2 sets of branches?
3 Likes
How many branches I leave depends on the plant. I use stakes to open up the plants, but not a lot. Honestly, Iām still figuring out what to do with the plants. I run a lot of different strains. Each plant has itās own needs. I try and follow them.
Right now Iāve got a SLP x RAB that did not like what I did, opening it up a little. The other 2 seem fine. Weāll see.

Hey @Cummings420 . Some thoughts. Didnāt want to clutter up @MoBillyās neighborhood.
I bet both of us could get more out of our plants. Question is at what cost. More or different nutes has a learning curve and a cost. In product and in time. I know from watching others how easy it is to get way off track. The plants āusuallyā finish, but not the best, or desired results.
Couple questions. What are you growing in? Soil? Some ProMix product? Pot size. Got any photos that are recent? Worm castings are great. Pretty safe stuff. Make sure theyāre fresh, not old and clumpy. @JohnnyPotseed germs in it. He has posted instructions. I bet itās not the only place he uses it. Iāll throw as much as a couple cups per gallon in anything I grow in. You can top dress with it.
What I wouldnāt do is go buy stuff with cool labels. Some good stuff has cool.labels, but you donāt really need much of the grow store products to grow weed thatās BETTER than almost anything from a dispo.
I often wonder if I could grow better plants. Maybe. But Iām sure I could torture them with the wrong move, then the wrong move to correct that. Next thing you know youāre looking at youāre plants and canāt wait to start fresh ones. I grow a lot of different strains. If I run it twice, itās special. @JAWS , @SHSC-1 , @Kind024 , talking to you guys here. I might learn more if I stuck to the same strains. Fine tuned what they need, when they need it. But I donāt, and think I have more fun growing. Itās a very pleasant way for me to spend time. I try and stick to things that make me happy. Iām curious tooā¦ Iād get bored growing even the best weed if it was all the same. Besidesā¦today I grow better weed than any I ever remember buying.
There. Take that.

I think we can all relate to doing this at some point @MoBilly . Years ago Iād have the frigginā leaf chart out. Deficiencies. Toxicity. The missus would look at me. āPull those leaves off and ask someone who knows what theyāre doing. Take a picture of THAT, and show the weed nerdsā.
