I was also intrigued , I think itās part of the gnats war, so no bottom watering, will the sand resist top watering? Always thought it would drain down through the soil while watering, must be a partial solutionā¦
Not much air exchange in pot I would imagine and watering would need to be perfect
Bottom of pot risk of stagnation not good for roots or good life ( aerobic ) but good for the bad stuff ( anaerobic )
Plus sand compounding the effect of no holes ( even harder for soil to breathe )
I donāt do organics but I assume you bubbling tea so your bacteria is aerobic ?
Weed control fabric would be a better choice maybe for gnat control for top and bottom of pot
Yeah itās only for a small periodā¦ the gnats are already goneā¦ just ensuring larvae donāt liveā¦
Is it just me or they look a tad hungry? Buds look great although ā¦
They are extremely hungry from the rinse they got last week taking them to 440ā¦ the. N feed taking them to 630ā¦ they need some normal stuffā¦ itās been a trading game lately with feedā¦
Thank you for the kind words on buds!! Itās what I care about the most obviously lol
Hereās upclose pics
Clones todayā¦ they are moving so fastā¦ all I can keep saying about them, freaky fast! Like Jimmy Johns!! šŖ“
Hell yeah, TnP. Clones are getting massive. Good work.
Sand, mosquito dunks, and duct tape. Whoāda thunk it eh!
Lol only a senseiā¦
So today I pulled tape off the bottomsā¦ I saw like 4 or 5 aliveā¦ killed 4 and 5th ended up here immediately
Today marks day 35 of flower
About 35 - 40 days to goā¦
25-30 days is about itā¦ā¦.
Damnā¦ they wonāt get very big lolā¦ thatās ok
Here they are todayā¦ the 1 in the back is getting dry fastā¦ it got a 900 ppm veg feed day before yesterdayā¦ and already itās light ā¦ tomorrow it will get a flower feed finallyā¦ so that ought to make it happierā¦ buds are getting Frost on them now on that 1 especially
This far into flowering if I may ask why are you giving her veg food ?
Iāve always believed itās far more beneficial to lower or eliminate all n in this stage ?
I heard something like to keep veg food two weeks after flipping, makes sense ā¦
Thatās what I do 20/20/20 the 2 weeks of transition only then bloom
@George
Yes many run veg feed 2-3 weeks after flip , plant still needs big N as she is building stem and leaf
Hey @Papalag the reason I gave a veg was 2 foldā¦ 1 sidebof the coinā¦ I didnāt have bloom feed and I am waiting on deliveryā¦
2nd reason, all the bottom leaves were going extremely fast and while thatās somewhat normal I know it was completely out of Nā¦ so I wanted to get some in thereā¦
I do not believe in stripping N completely in flowering because plants use some stillā¦ so moving forward with other plants in flowering Iāll be doing much lower N because the leaves will already have some stored (these plants were locked out for a whole week) leaves didnāt have much storedā¦
So I wanted to ensure giving them something to eat along with a dose of calmagā¦ which I thought I wouldnāt need but clearly doā¦
Itās all a juggling act right now in other words ā¦
