I am following the "Recipe for Success Mixing Chart" by the Technaflora Plant Productions. For the veg they were on (everything is how many Ml per gallon) BC Boost 15ml BC Grow 7.5 Ml Thrive Alive B-1 Red 2.5 Ml Magical 2.5 Ml. Sugar Daddy 10 Ml. Then now that we are in flowering i have mover to (once again everything in Ml per gallon) BC Boost 15 Ml BC Bloom 15Ml Awesome Blossoms 2.5 Ml Thrive Alive B-1 Red 2.5 Ml Magical 2.5 Ml and Sugar Daddy 12.5 Ml. This thursday they will be 6 weeks into flowering. I plant to use Flora Clean 10 days before the harvest and then put them on clean pure water until the harvest.

One thing i realize now is that if I had gotten a light mover I would of gotten alot more bud. I completely regret that and for my new grow am definitely going to invest in one. On a side note I moved a crop outside to start my first outdoor grow. If i can I will try to get some pictures of them once they are further along. But In the meantime I will put up some new shots of the indoor crop.

ok what i meant is to lower the ammount of boost you use and add more magical. the kush and the last pics look fine but the big bud is getting way too much nitrogen and thats why the leaves claw down like that. if you do something like 10 ml boost and 5 ml magical they should be straightening out in a week or two. they can go all the way on that shedule but it will be better for that big bud. im not familiar with technafloras products but they look perfect besides that and its just the big bud genes that dont like that much nitrogen. it seems all the products have some nitrogen and it ads up

Thanks for the response! I definatly think I have an issue with nitrogen Because some of the leaves are turning yellow on both the big bud and Kush. So just change the nutes and lower the boost and increase the magical.

can you get pics of the yellowing plant leaves? it could be that they arent getting much light or it could be something else, i doubt its a deficiency with that kit at the right ph. btw are you checking ph?

I am defiantly close to harvest. At least within the next two weeks. And I believe my pics will speak for themself. I also added an extra 600 hps for these last two weeks tomorrow i am flushing them and putting them on pure water.

keep them going on nutes for atleast another week! hydro doesnt need as much flush as soil and they always enjoy being fed at the end. I myself am unsure of the benefits of flushing, i just did a comparisson with 4 plants and the ones without the flush actually had better more full taste.

Thanks for your input it is always welcome! many people have been telling me that I need to wait what is your opinion on waiting another three weeks from when those photos were taken to harvest??

well if you look at the first pic, the bud is mostly white pistils and you can tell she is far from done. that bud needs atleast 3 weeks till its done. the second picture looks close to ready, you notice the calyxes(what the pistils come out of) are swollen and huge on that nug and the pistils do no dominate. it depends on the strain how much they swell but they usually get the same aspect(big swollen calyxes compared to calyxes during the bud growth). Id say wait 3 weeks, the longer they go the more potent but more stoney, if you want a more up high(cerebral) you can think about chpping sooner.

looking at those pics i would give the 2 pics in post #27 and the 2nd pic of post#28 about a week or 10 days. the 1st pic of 28th post looks like it could go 3 weeks. this is kinda not the best organized explanation. did you get the idea?


btw the first 3 pics i mentioned look delicious, what strain is that? maybe post a pic of each strains main cola and i can help you out. and if your going to harvest at different times then i wouldnt worry too much about flushing the earlier girls cus that means u have to flush the latter ones if they are in the same system.
is this your 1sr grow? you seem to have great equipment, did you use to grow tomatoes?

Yes this is my first grow. I did as much research as I could when i started and did not skimp on the initial investment. The first pic in post 28 is a kush the second pic in post 27 is a Big Bud. I believe I am going to Let the system run for about another two weeks probably. It is just it is impossible for me to only harvest some at a time. I have never been a tomato farmer. I am away from my op for the next day or two but when i get back I will try to get some better pics. It is difficult wiht the HPS on the light distorts the color in the pic. As always thanks for the input! Also i am moving my op and setting up a new larger room when i get the chance I will post pics but it might be a bit. But i added a second 600 HPS in the tent for the last couple weeks. I hope it makes a noticable diffrence!
