I’m getting mine from electric_stoner who’s also in that Discord. He’s held the cut for like 20+ years and just recently made S1 beans with it. I got in on a preorder and he asked if I wanted a clone so I said hell yea lol

I also have some beans made by Cecil C that have his MOB cut crossed to Crockett’s Blood Orange. Cecil got his cut from him too, so if I find a male from that I can make MOB BX!

Morning y’all, just dropping some fresh photos this morning. Everyone was looking real happy at lights on this morning. Turned the 350R up to give em around 5-550 PPFD (according to the Photone app) and we’ll let em chill for the day. Be good y’all.

Last night was actually the first night of 12/12 so we’re rolling into flower. With this being my first run in EBs and having two plants per box I wanted to flip early so as to not out pace the biology in the soil. Gonna take @CrunchBerries advice and top dress often. I figured this will give me a good baseline of the capacity of these things to move forward

oh dang I so the show has just begun…nice. what are you top dressing with? I know you probably have already said what you are top dressing with , but I might have missed that.

I don’t know if I did or not, these got planted into build a soil light and I immediately top dressed with 1/2 cup per box of craft blend. I’m thinking I’ll do that once more in a week or so, and then start adding more fish bone meal to supplement for flower.
@CrunchBerries i was meaning to ask you too, if you want to water in things like epsom salts or a microbial inoculant do you typically let the res go dry for a day or so first? Or do you just go for it whenever knowing that the moisture will even itself out in the system? Worried about potentially overwatering if I want to feed in some goodies. Particularly want to know in case I run into deficiencies and need to reach for the blue gold flower formula to help correct

Hey bud,
In an EB once the roots have hit the reservoir I keep my reservoir filled and would topwater in a gallon of whatever mixture between two EBs once a week. The system is not setup to be a regular pot, but a SIP pot. It’s designed to be moister than you are used to 24/7. Fill your reservoir with 1tsp LABS per gallon and keep it topped. Have you checked out any Alan Adkisson interviews? That’s the probiotic sip dude. There are a couple videos of his in the Link Farm in my thread.
You shouldn’t run into any deficiencies as the plants take what they want, when they want. Just stay on your topdress and provide them a buffet to choose from. Given optimal nutrition and watering the plants express themselves like never before.

What’s going on everyone, just a quick update today. Plants have all been bushing out, I went in today and removed a lot of big leaves that were shading out some of the lowers, trying to encourage side branches to grow a little more. The #3 has the message for sure, she’s a little unruly, but has these gnarly big fans with narrower leaves than her two sisters. All these plants have got seriously stout main stems, which I’m really stoked about. Continuing to keep an eye on the #1, but I’m all but 100% it’s a dude. Once I have irrefutable proof I’ll probably trim up his side branches so we’re only dealing with the top when it comes to spitting pollen. Smells on these have been kind of fading in and out, some days I’ll go downstairs and get an ambient dank smell, then others there’s nothing of note. Stems rubs have been mainly vegetal smells with some slight citrus, seems like they almost drank more earlier on in thier veg, we’ll see what all develops there. Here’s a quick group shot for posterity:
The lighter green new growth was bothering me a little yesterday so I threw in a couple tablespoons of crustacean meal and a bunch of EWC, just so they have what they need in case they were starting to get deficient. End of this week I’ll topdress again with craft blend, and then hopefully continue to go with 2 week intervals through the end of flower, probably
supplement some fish bone meal along with the craft blend to help carry through deep flower. I’ve got three Super Yahmba’s in the veg tent that I just topped and threw the cuts into cups of water in the 3x3 to determine sex early on, hence the yellow bucket top etc. I think that’s kinda it for now. Be good y’all
