Re: Josh's hempy adventure
inert but does it absorb and store anything?

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
It absorbs pretty good, but it dries quick. As far as storing, no I don't think so. Everyone that does hempys says to feed every timeNanook of the north wrote:inert but does it absorb and store anything?

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
This is why you need to be consistent with watering an feeds coz once you get out of sync it quickly becomes hard to read and a nightmare.in any mediums.keeping them darkish without overfeeding is key reading the colour of them is the edge.earlier on they should of been fed up more.silicon you stop once flowering 
 I hope these get to the end nicely it is a good way of growing if you can hit it right

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
I understand, I like that way of thinking. I'll be more consistent from here outERBURT wrote:This is why you need to be consistent with watering an feeds coz once you get out of sync it quickly becomes hard to read and a nightmare.in any mediums.keeping them darkish without overfeeding is key reading the colour of them is the edge.earlier on they should of been fed up more.silicon you stop once floweringI hope these get to the end nicely it is a good way of growing if you can hit it right
 thanks for the well wishes, they're stacking up descent enough. I've been getting 5 oz consistently from 8 square ft of grow space, hoping to improve on that though

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
But in the meantime all I can really do is keep upping the feed until they darken up? No burnt tips yet so that's a good signERBURT wrote:This is why you need to be consistent with watering an feeds coz once you get out of sync it quickly becomes hard to read and a nightmare.in any mediums.keeping them darkish without overfeeding is key reading the colour of them is the edge.earlier on they should of been fed up more.silicon you stop once floweringI hope these get to the end nicely it is a good way of growing if you can hit it right

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
Hey jimmi, could you re-word that a bit for me please? Sry, loljimmi2scoops wrote:Ive just started adding pk13/14 @ start of week 6 of 12/12 i`ll be adding it till i put them on water for a few weeks at end, so for around 3 weeks @ 1/2ml first 2 weeks and 1 ml 3rd week, i like to add it 3 weeks before i flush and put them on water at end for a few weeks so times may differ dependent upon strain i`m growing.
I add it first then make feeds up to ec i want with A&B. Once ytour plants have started greening up i`d be dropping feeds right back to say 1.0 to 1.2 ec, it`s only cus they are hungry atmo go in with higher feeds, if you had upped feeds at start of bloom then you just drop back after stretching is over.
I'm currently at the start of week 6, so I'll be adding pk now like you suggested?
.5 ml/L and then get EC to where I want it with base feed, is that correct?
And my plants are well past the stretch and looking healthy, but a bit dark now after watering at 1.7 a few times. What is a good EC I should shoot for?
Thanks man

Re: Josh's hempy adventure
Hey everyone 
Start of week 6 and looking like they'll finish right at 9 weeks again. Mayybe a bit sooner, we'll see
Managed to burn them slightly, lol. Went a little crazy with the bloom nutes
Fed tonight with .5 ml/L pk boost and 10 grams of maxibloom- 1.2 EC
2 ml ph down, set to 5.8
Starting EC is .3 by the way
Found a couple random "bananas" coming out the top of 2 buds on my sour diesel. Plucked them yesterday and haven't found anymore yet, not sure why it happened in the first place though. Maybe light stress from when I moved the other day, combined with the nute burn
 
Good times, good times. Lmao
Happy growing everyone
