-my cfl grow-

she is lookin good no signs of any defeciencies but it seems that she has a over load of N might be the coffee grounds i used in the top layer of soil. i was gonna flush her today but she is still wet from last watering ill wait till she dries up. do you guys think shes ready to be flushed? her pistils are receeding more and more everyday which i love to see! trichs are still cloudy or clear cant really tell. no amber ones yet tho. the lower buds in the center of her seem to be finishing faster than the tops. all the calyxes are swollen and all pistils receeded "just a matter of time"(DO3SHA) untill the trichs are amber. haha so the big question is WHEN SHOULD I FLUSH?

forgot to mention my cheese baby haha there she is a little peak at her. for some reason all my little seedling takes forever to grow and take off... ive had her for maybe three or four weeks...

they look so sexy dank! I like the "feed them one more time" approach then flush. Are you thinking about 2 more weeks?

Yea feed them one more time and then straight water and I would a week befor enough chop but that is personal preference and everyone has their own ways

I'm thinking three weeks before you chop

yea what they said, feed one more time (with molassess included) and then flush.

alright ill feed her tonight or tomorrow night if she is dry and then flush sometime around friday. i dont have molassess... and dont really wanna buy some unless its pretty cheap haha might use it on the next grow. i have no idea when she will be done as i chopped my first grow too early... so im taking it day by day just gonna pull her when i see the trichs i like. probably gonna get 3 diff chops one a little early some at a "perfect time" and then one with more amber trichs. just to see what the difference is.

no idea on the seedling? and why mine might grow so slow

I got some unsulphered molasses from wally world for like 3 bucks. A few hours after feeding my plants leaves perked up like I have never seen on this particular plant. Ever since then she developed lots of trichomes. I highly recommend it and I'll be including it for now on. Your plants looks great. Keep it up.

Blackstrap unsupported molasses I use it but don't really see any benefit the past tribes I used it so on this grow I'm going to do half with and half without and see if it truly makes a differences

interesting ill have to see how that turns out for you. i dont know much about using it do you only use it during flowering or even in veg?

unsulphered not unsupported lol

i only use it a week before i flush and i flush three days before i chop some people use it religiously throught heir entire grow but i do not see much benefit with it at all, i preferr the alaska fish emlusion for veg and my neighbor is doing test rightnow of alaska mor bloom 0-10-10 and flora bloom 0-5-4.hes too much of a puss to get on RIU so i am gunna document all of it and then make a complete thread when completerd

Hey Guys, molasses is used to feed the microbes in your soil, not to feed your plants.
If someone is using chem ferts all along, chances are that they've killed off most of the living organisms in the soil, and adding molasses doesn't do much of anything.

When used in organic gardening, it's a whole different story though.

thats completely oposite from what ive read on multiple areas, everyone has their own opinions and my pinion is that it doesnt do anything noticeably significant

That's because most people on here and pretty much every other stoner forum have their information all mixed up.

What I stated is factual, not opinion.

ill still stick with my opinion i have not seen proven facts and everyone grows with different lights, medium, strains, and etc so there not one way to proove anything

Happy growing!

you too sirr, but i do understand your side and took your side into some thought, so no hard feelings, just a little debate now time for us to kick back and smoke one

yeah i have herd that it feeds the microbes in the soil. did not know about chem ferts killing microbes that is good to know. ill be switching to organics next grow. for some reason i thought all fox farm was organic when i bought it but i was wrong. and just havent had the intrest to make organic teas and what not but deff will in the future!

are you all organic?
haha thats funny but also great!

Well i know the Alaska fish emulsion is and the blackstrap but as for the bloom I know flora bloom isn't but I dunno about the Alaska morbloom but your medium would have to be all organic to, maybe switch to coco soil
