Welcome to week 4 since they popped the soil. I was going to use individual scrog screens but couldn’t make them work. I installed a 2x4 stretch scrog screen instead. It will be interesting when I need to remove the watering bases from a SCROG, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get there...

The plants grew another inch last night to 9” tall. If my tracking is correct, that’s 4” in one week. I topped them above the fifth node yesterday. Now i’m waiting for my garden screen to arrive today so I can prepare the 12x12 training scrog screens. Since I’m growing three in a 2x4 tent...

Hey Old Fogey, Great to see you’re still around. Excited to see how this works…..I only tried my hand at keif once (bubble bags) and it wasn’t a very good outcome. Looking forward to seeing how the press and heat gun work.

Tried my hand at making salve last night while HAF after reading a post by MaryJan. Or was that two nights ago? I smoked too much Godfather OG to finish my work (actually put me on the floor at one point), but I screwed up several components. Today I had to re-melt it in the double boiler...

Your water looks superior. My tap water is 9.5ph and 335ppm. City Water analysis shows low calcium despite high ppm, so I need CalMag too. It’s also treated with chloramines, so I have to treat the water (add more ppm) with aquarium chlorine remover before using. Thats one reason I use a...

Today I noticed that my plants grew by an inch or more last night to 6-7 inches. I did add some infrared lighting this week to encourage a little stretch, but I can’t imagine it would make that much of a difference in a short period of time. It’s already a sativa dominant strain, so I want to...

Thanks MariJan! I just ordered some lemon oil and I’ll wait to finish making my salve. If you don’t mind me asking, do you use an infused oil or infused alcohol to make your gummies? Thats another one that I’ve never figured out.

You inspired me tonight Jan to try salve again. My first two batches were ok but not great. I am following most of your recipe with the ingredients I have on hand except I am using coconut oil, lavender oil and shea butter in place of the vitamin e oil. Interesting enough, there is one...

Nice looking grow and very intriguing Open Grow beta software! I’m subscribing to follow along. I use the AC Infinity controller software to track temperature and humidity, but it doesn’t have a means of tracking nutrients. I use an online diary website to track my details by week (age...

Welcome Growgreenz! Hope you find it to be as welcoming of a group as I have. Tell us more about your grow or start up a grow journal. We love new ideas and new techniques.

They’re very simple and effective. The bottom feeders work great for me as long as I feed from the bottom and I use 5 gallon bags. I’m testing this out with a 3 gallon bag this time. One thing I’ve noticed is that the thicker grow bags (like the AC Infinity bags) seem to prevent roots from...

Ha…my wife is a saint. I don’t really have a yard or sufficient outdoor privacy in this community to take the plants outside, so the basement bathroom is my flushing station and my only source of water. Fortunately no on ever sees the basement.

Feeding plan Update…”Lucas Formula” for coco is also called “Head’s Formula”. I believe I will use that for my Flora Series feeing schedule at 6ml micro, 9 ml Bloom, and 3ml CalMag every week. Before I feed all of the plants, I intend to feed this to one of the spare plants to make sure it...

A peaceful Sunday in the garden….roughly three weeks since breaking the soil. This I’m slowly building my future plans for feeding and training them. Rewired the tent and controller wires again because I didn’t like the messiness of my last attempt. I’m using an AC Infinity controller...

I have seen recipes from experienced growers for Terpinator knockoffs (thanks Dr. Who if you’re online). This is the recipe I’ve used. Can’t say that I’ve noticed a difference, but I didn’t run a side-by-side test. Perhaps I should. Terpinator is reported to provide “a unique combination of...

Wow Greenmobster! After seeing this, I’m tempted to rip out my plants and replant them in ProMix and feed them Jacks! Beautiful!!! And I’m sold on your SCROG screens, so I’ll be headed to the hardware store next week. Thanks for posting! I learn so much by observing other grows.

Looking forward to following your earth box!! I like low-maintenance grows and new growing techniques, and this offers both. Really cool experiment. I’m sure I could find a way to screw it up. I’m going back the top of the thread to figure out your medium and what each component provides...

I bought the three pack of inserts for $55 and I had to buy buckets too. They worked great until the very end when I felt like the salt buildup in the medium was burning my plant. I couldn’t think of any way to flush them either, so the leaves were a little “fried” by the end. If I recall...

That’s very true….I could probably go 4 days now without needing to open the tent. The only work seems to be mixing up 1.3 gallons of nutrients per feeder since I add a lot of nutrients and supplements. As soon as I convert to ProMix and Jacks, it will only get easier. (Thanks again for the...
