    Far red lighting and inducing flowering

    Red light promotes node growth and flowering but not by itself. In shade, the ratio of far red to red light is increased because far red is transmitted through the leaf more than red light. The increase in far red promotes stem elongation to stretch the node into the light from the shade...

    Yield question!!

    I had a bit of trouble getting the seed to pop, took way too long in my opinion. That obviously affected the yield. Just some info that may help. It's looking good, you should do much better than I did. Good luck!

    Yield question!!

    I ran one and got nearly nothing, 10 grams. The flowers are beautiful and the medicinal value is spot on but the yield is the weakest I've seen so far. Hope that helps.

    Tangelo Rapido

    I have just completed I grow with this strain. The total grow time was 70 days exactly. The yield was about four grams per plant. I grew them in a tent with good airflow and organic nutrients. This is a great plant to grow for fun but not for yields. The smell of the buds is amazing. I agree...

    New to organics

    You could use coconut husk for aeration and water holding. Microbes do well in it when conditions are good, however you will have k leaching after breakdown occurs. Usually around the 30 day mark or so. If you back off on kelp meal a bit you could use that. This is a bit late but maybe it will...

    Using pH up to raise soil ph

    I know this is a little old but I have some info to help. Although compost teas are great for microbial action and general soil health, the byproduct of this action can create acidity. I'm not sure which microbes were involved because there are many but the excess of salts (food) caused a bloom...

    PSA:new growers in coco

    Awesome information. For the new guys I just wanted to add that they can foliar feed the cal/mag while they are working through their issues. This way they can supplement the plants quickly. The hardest time I had was in the transition to bloom where the need for P and K are up. Good luck.

    Silica and enzyme?

    You can foliar the K silicate and avoid coco K+ issues as long as you go lightly. You don't want runoff dripping in your medium, just in case.

    It's amazing what happens when you change your ph slightly and let the girls dry out a bit.
