Hey all, thanks for stopping in new people!
Went ahead and fed them today, continued with the 80% feeding strength @ the
light feeding schedule amounts. Ran out of a couple of the nutrients for this nutrient schedule (Organic B, Sensizym) and this grow is going for at least 9 weeks total, 2 more weeks. So I may or may not feed them one more time before giving them only water. Though I remember a few (LF/Chef?) saying I don't have to stop feeding early if I am using organic. In this case, I ran out of those nutes so, going to give them only water for the last 14 days or so. Though I could continue to feed it would be missing the above nutes.
The first couple of pics are how I prepare the water, two 5-gallon buckets, one bucket waters all the flowering plants with 8 cups of water once, the second bucket makes it 16 cups per plant, a gallon per five-gallon plant. Inbetween the first watering of the flowering plants, I then water the clones, this give my flowering plants time to absorb water (20m) before giving them their second bucket of water. In my case, pruning the bottom branches of my flowering room was a big benefit, it allows me to get my clumsy pitcher in between the plants and water them without having to lug them all out, which I did last week. This the 'coasting' mode for watering the plants, last week I hauled them out because I had to check for potential bugs (none seen so far) after finding a single bug prior.
I X-planted one of the clones when watering them, now all 5 clones are in 2-gallon buckets which will be xplanted to 5-gallons when the flowering room is completed in 2 weeks, then they will be put in the flowering room. I topped them all again to experiment and see what exactly happens. Can 4 branches come up, or maybe I can just make them into super bushes and they will have a ton more lateral-room since the last grow had 13 plants jammed together like Tetris compared to the 5 clones once they get flowering. That will be their second topping in 3 weeks.
The flowers are getting large, I tried to capture a few macro shots but failed, I need a tripod or the famous Eyeclops, which I ordered from Amazon a bit ago but then got an e-mail saying it was backordered.
Thanks again for checking in, and to those who got WR beans, great so far man. They seem to root fast and prefer bigger buckets, take it easy on the nutes before you start confusing yourself with toxicity vs. deficiency.
And finally, my table pc does not auto-spell check on these forums for some reason, so ignore the typos.
