fun project on your hands, that studio space is going to be amazing!
How do you use it as a veg additive? I currently use apple cider vinegar for ph down so this would help me not kill microbes
How long does it ferment for?
Bravo Dad!
Parenting is an Art, and adapting to the Kiddos as they mature is an ongoing challenge!
Sounds like you’re keepin up, so Good on Ya.
I usually use about 1-2 oz. Per gallon. It’s probably ready in a week or two, but longer won’t hurt. This one is on the long side because I haven’t been going this summer.
I guess it is high in nitrogen and microbes since its green material thats being fermented?
Yes, high in nitrogen, microbes (LABs), and organic acids.
I should do this with all my left over wasted fan leaves. What about large stems can i chop them down and ferment?
The thicker stems are usually too woody, but I find if you chop them up into 1" pieces they make a fine mulch.
Yo that is an awesome idea! I didnt even think to turn them into mulch! Thanks bro
I TLC tested a pre-harvest bud and it looks like medium THC content and no CBD at all. I did not test the male. Juanita was 1:1 THC:CBD if I remember correctly?
That’s good info. Using the Beam test I’ve found roughly 75% to have some CBD. TLC would be a handy tool for breeding for specific cannabinoids. Very cool.
I think you would enjoy it, its nerdy, fun and really handy You can test leaves in veg and select your breeding stock early for cannabinoids. I have yet to re-test flower of plants I tested in veg to verify but others successfully tried. The profile will change a bit over time but eg. selecting some THC- and some CBD dominant plants for breeding should work before they even flower.
Hello Hello. How goes it buddy? I can’t complain, nor will I. Just wanted to spread some love and thank you for coming up on 5 years of help and the joy you bring here.
I wouldn’t have had the love and respect for Autoflowers the way I do. So thanks for everything. I’m not sure how she’s gonna turn out. . Lol. I don’t have a ceiling limit this time.

I actually labeled those backwards, it’s Ghost Tooth x Sugar Black Rose. @Mr.Sparkle named it Ghost Rose, search for that here to see more grows of it. It’s one of the best crosses I’ve ever made. I should make some F2s I have a small handful left.
So summer is winding down here. It’s only supposed to be 97°F today. It’s about time to fire up the indoor garden. I don’t really know what I want to do.
I have about 11 clones just taking up space in my veg room. I could plant them all in my beds and do a quick SOG run, maybe a week of veg and let them rip.
I had wanted to do a little perpetual deal in the veg room with feminized autos. Planting one plant every couple of weeks type deal for some variety in flower.
Speaking of feminized seeds, I kind of want to self my keeper plants and make some feminized crosses. I already have the crosses in regular form, but if I’m going to self a plant, I might as well pollinate everything.
Finally there’s the seed collection that needs to be popped. Some notable packs that call out to me are Creme Brulee by LED Seeds, Pure Love by Irie Genetics, and something by BOG (can’t remember off hand).
I made some really good progress on the kiddo’s studio this week. I managed to get the ceiling painted Tuesday night. Wednesday night I was about to put the fan up when my washing machine overflowed in the basement. Thursday I took off work so I could snake the drain. Friday night I got the trim and edge work done.
Saturday I got the bookcase painted. My daughter isn’t too crazy about the color. I may add some more trim highlights such as the trim piece around the doors and the shelves.
Sunday I finished the walls.
I got some free time to clean up in the workshop this weekend while the kiddo was at moms. First thing that desperately needed done was to trim up my mother plants. They were getting a bit unruly, so I trimmed them back to about four growth tips each.
The next thing I did was transplant the lone Solo’s Stash clone into a one gallon container that had an auto in it last run. Then I ran about half a gallon of nutrient solution through the pot to get rid of any salt build up. Finally I trimmed it up and put it in the QT tent set to 12/12.
After dealing with the mother plants, I turned my attention to the flower room. I swept up the dead leaves and cob webs from the floor and removed the top layer of trellis. I put three clones in each bed. The left bed has three Chem91 x Orange Sour Dub, and the other six are Dominion Diesel. Instead of digging into the bed, I just moved the mulch and put the wax cup in the bed whole. The plan is to give them a week or so of veg then flip them to 12/12.
With all the extra room in the veg, I decided I better pop some seeds to fill it up. For the perpetual auto run, I picked a feminized Forgotten Cookies x GLo. I also decided to pop 1/2 of my SourBluTooth by BOG. These came directly from the legend himself as a thank you for distributing his seeds for an OG auction.
Finally, I fired up my colloidal silver generator. The plan is to reverse the Solo’s Stash in the QT tent.
No holidays for you as I see , congrats for the new member …
thanks for that correction. I have some left so let me know if I can help bud. I just got some fresh humidity domes heating mats, and root riot plugs. Soil as well some free space. I have it in a gallon pot switching from HPS to LED when my photo tent goes dark.
It’s always a pleasure to hear from you. I hope everything is going good. Be safe put there bud.
I got 100% germination on the BOG SourBluTooth. I think it’s funny that I double planted one though.
I was able to successfully separate the two plants and transplanted them into solo cups of coco. They should be able to stay in those cups long enough to get a few decent clones and sex them. The auto in the back got pretty lanky, so I put them all under the 100W light and in front of the fan.
The clones in the flower room look like they are starting to get their roots into the beds. I did end up removing the paper cup, since they were drying out and not pushing roots through the cups.
I have been spraying this Solo’s Stash clone daily with CS for the last week. She’s a bit worse for wear, but should produce enough pollen to create a few crosses and S1s. After that, I going to let the mom go. I have plenty of crosses etc to find something comparable later down the line.
