Cool thanks for the help man. How often do you feed your plants?

I'm pretty sure he's watering them every time he's feeding them, lol. So that would lead me to believe:

Nah, I water with every feeding only this time I will be adding a flush cycle into the mix.  Feed for two weeks, flush once, feed for two weeks flush again, repeat til the final flush.  More as a preventative maintenance then anything else.

What does flushing involve? Just running a shitload of water through the bucket?

Well, I'm going to use a flushing product called clearex.  I mix up the solution and then pour a quart of the solution into the plants (directions on the bottle).  I've used it on my LA Conf. Mom becuase I thought she was suffering from a salt build up + Ph problem.  After the flush and two feedings she was looking much better then she had for most of her life.  When I do my final flush before harvest I'll probably also run another few quarts of plain Ph adjusted water for good measure.

Fed the flowering girl 1.5 tsp of FN Bloom + 1 tsp of Kool Bloom liquid / gal PH at 6.1 PPM at 989

Fed the baby Kushberrys 1 tsp FN Grow + 1 tsp Thrive Alive / Gal Ph at 5.8 PPM at 846 (looked like they needed a heavier feeding then what I had been giving).

Took one LA Conf clone out of the chamber, one I had killed on accident yesterday, and took 6 new cuttings for a friend.  There's still 4 more waiting for roots, but it shouldn't be too much longer now.

Day 27 of flowering

Fed the girl tonight with: 2 tsp of FN Bloom + 2 tsp of Kool Bloom liquid + 1 tsp of Snow Storm / gal water.  PPM 1510 PH 6.1

After the last feeding she was responding super well, so I decided to give her an extra heavy dose tonight before I give her a plain water + clearex treatment in 2 days.  Once she got over the underfeeding issue she hit a really nice growth spurt and is growing well now.  Still no discernible skunk odor, there's a slight smell when you get right next to the main tip, but it's lost it's that hint of skunk it had.  Hopefully this will change in the upcoming weeks as I really do enjoy the skunks the most. 

3 of the 4 clones I took nearly 12 days ago finally poked some roots through the side and got thrown into solo cups tonight.  The other clone that was already rooted has been under the lamps for three days now and is growing well.  I have one more clone that should be rooted by tomorrow I'm guessing, then 6 that I took last week for a friend.  I think the clones are rooting slowly because they're not getting enough oxygen, I need a stronger fan and I'll place the cloning chamber right next to the fan to get some better airflow through the dome.

Last we have the LA mom, looking gorgeous but definitely over fed.  Plain water for her next couple of feedings + a clearex treatment as well.  She's growing some super huge fans and again is just really vigorous.  I trimmed her back pretty well when I took those 6 clones and she already grew back up into the lights.  I'll need to get some light yo-yo's and a small shelf so I can keep the smaller plants closer to the light and be able to move the light more easily to keep my mom(s) happy.




Day 17 of veg

Here's the latest from the Kushberry camp. Again, an underfeeding problem with these girls was solved very easily with a nice strong dose of FN grow + Thrive alive, greened and perked up really well after that.  You can see the two plants on the left look very uniform, while the mutie on the right is a bit stunted with some weird leaf deformations.  I'll most likely just chuck that one into the flowering cab when the other clones go.  Don't even think I'm interested in cloning it even if it turned out to be the only girl.  My veg cab is definitely getting full for the moment,  Once these girls go into the one gallon buckets I'll be picking another strain to pop and I think that will be it for a little while, or if the KB's turn out all male :wink:

So far so good in both cabinets, time seems to be moving slower with this grow then with the autoflowers.  Is it the end of March yet?

Yah, it was pretty cheap when I bought it.  Only reason I didn't buy the flora kleen was that the shop only carried one gallon jugs of it.

Should work as well as the first time I did it, this is more of a preventative maintenance thing then anything else.  So, I really can't say how well it works because I don't have another plant that I'm not flushing to compare to. :wink:

No, it won't die.  But excessive salt buildup may occur and cause stunted/slow growth.  At your plants stage it's completely unnecessary.  I would say around 4-5 weeks of feeding would warrant a flush to prevent any possible problems.

Yeah I have noticed, mind you, in SOIL that my plants start to show some toxicity problems from salt buildup after about 4wks of Veg, then again at about 4wks into flower.  This may be because I choose not to water with a lot of runoff, because it just runs onto the floor where I clean it up, and this could cause buildup faster I would presume. 

I would always recommend a flush in Veg, and one in mid-flower, then at the end.  I can see some nasty colors coming out of the runoff when I flush them, I just feel it's good for the roots and gives them a chance to be cleansed.
