I'm using advanced nutrients jungle juice lucas formula, vitamin b-1,molasses,bud candy, dolomite lime and she wants more!! what are you using to contain her hunger?
Maxsea is all I use at the moment.......The boxes were filled with a local soil called 'White lightning' which has caca load of great stuff and the field itself is an old grazing pasture that had caca everywhere and after digging to check the soil I found that it was FULL of worms and was a perfect sandy loam.....so I am going as little as needed on the nutes. Just doing the maxsea once a week at full strength and then some.
 
Why so less on that large garden

thx gb....just starting to flower....i was hoping to average a lb each....is that attainable with plants this size given everything goes right?
Easily. I'm betting on twice that (without mold or other probs). Use a leaf blower to "blow dry" plants after rains to help prevent mold/rot.
Good luck and keep those fat chicks happy...

Hey Jacbpdx..
Hope you got your girls covered.. I'm 60 miles eAst of you in the gorge..f'ing Sept rain what's up with this?? We usually get a little bit last year and now this year... Yikes. I d got my last 7 covered pretty well, harvested two Oregon Diesel last weekend, looks to be between 2-3 dry weight.
Keep a close watch on them for any sign of Bud rot or mold.. I did a preventative neem oil spray yesterday and plan on harvesting first weekend of October.
Good luck man. Your plants look great.
I have a Gorilla Grape not sure if it's related to your Grape Ape but mines a beautiful purp and close to 7' tall!!
 
Hey Jacbpdx if you spray your plant with silica once or twice a week you lessen mold intrusion...silica build strong plant cell walls on the leaves and makes it hard for mold to take root ...I have plants in Greenhouse and outside...I hit them twice a week with silica (pro-tek) and the outside plants have rock hard buds and no mold....plus i water it in once a week...with kelp...I am in the Nrth east so its dewy every morning..plants soaked...i have to dry them off with a leaf blower....the plants in GH also no mold..it gets condensation in there even with 4 big fans...5 years ago not using silica i had rot alot..but since using it ..little to none now....I use to use Pro tek but switched this year to
Europonic Silicate ..its 11% silicate and plants love it...

I heard the one by GH called armor Si is good also....kelp and silica is your friend during mold season
