Overgrow Auto Chronicles : Chapter 1

Day 48/20

Refilled the reservoirs with a 1.35 ec 5.8 feed, apart from the pollen producers with a straight water fill.

Removed the two lesser plants, one split in a sense where its apex shoot kinda stopped then took off alternating in an uncharacteristic mutant like way, and the other even though quite healthy just wanted to be a short stout plant which is counter to potential yields.

And still waiting on pollen, gonna start attempting to collect some off the one plant, the other i may have to pluck pollen sacs to dry and crush later.

Day 34

Well they survived woot just not swimmingly lol.

There pH went high though still had water when i got around to them this morning, likely the cold snap helped with that causing them to transpire less.

Did some clean up and reorg , also trimmed roots off the bottom of the pots and a few found the drain holes the following being the most extreme one which is pretty crazy.

Also took a closer look in the process and after the reorg at least three on the right side will be used with the back right being questionable and the left side cab im gonna wait a bit more on apart from the small one that im just letting dry out, im gonna up pot some in the next day and will just be hand watering till then.

Happy new year can I ask which plant prod chemical were you planning on using ? The mj line ?

yeah same stuff your using, well specifically picked up just the calkick and bloom parts the rest seems unnecessary at the moment for autos and those other parts would last me 100’s of runs per their schedule so just opted out for now to get a feel.

I’ve been having good luck so far the veg I’ll add some general hydro micro if they seem to need it other wise no complaints . Pretty stable once mixed which is nice.

yeah figured try them as being Canadian and have used there more retail gardener stuff in the past for non mj stuff and will try them alongside jacks.

and the stability and say lack of organics is something im interested to see compared to the MC

I’ll get a bit of ph drop which drops the ppm after a couple days in the mix tub . I blame it on my water as it did it with general hydro but a lot quicker and bigger drops.

well for me its the opposite atm i start off a bit higher than needed and due to my adjuster on hand “citric acid” it wears off relatively quick, being a bit more acidic and adjusting upwards is actually easier and more stable then having to go down for me so will be interesting to see where mixed up levels come out at.

Will have to teach my brain to detect this thread :sweat_smile:, sad to see the other dying and buried by the rest, lots of good info and pics there, but guess new year means new changes.

Always interested on reading and learning, thank for sharing your knowledge with us … beer3|nullxnull
