Citral Grow...Starting From Day 3 until I harvest!
Jorge Cervantes is indeed a great man, but he is mainly a guerilla grower. Not to mention, that with my experience in outdoor or soil growing, I would totally agree with you and not use any nutrients in this stage of growth because the soils are filled with nutrients.
But, with indoor hydro, it seems that people are split over this theory in the different publications. I think it goes to your personal prefrences here. I personally saw my girls do much better in terms of growth with a 1/8th nite cycle and then the 1/5 I have them on now. I am sure over time we will all experiment and find what works best with each strain. As, I am sure we have all learned that all strains are totally different than the next.
I will experiment to find the best growth and yield of my plants until I find my personal "right nute mixture" as I am sure everyone does.
In the end, I believe we are all correct as long as we are able to stinky, sticky high potencey ganja, with the best possible yield for our efforts. It was not too long ago that hydroponics wad first introduced. There will always be advancements, and we all should learn from everyone and incorporate it into our growing regiment. Whether it be scrogging or nute schedules, we can always find new ways to make fat sacks and mighty fine hash!

Hey support, nice grow there buddy. Those bitches look sexy. I will watch your progress there for sure. U should net over a pound for sure. Wish there was a smellernet so I could drool over the aroma. How is the smell so far, and are u using a carbon filter to keep it under control?

So my suggestion would be back off on the nutrients for now and make sure that temperatures are hospitable for your ladies. Good luck bro, happy growin :rastasmoke:
you are correct about the cotyledon containing nutes. i've however seen big, mature plants with them still on and as green as ever. some say this is a way to judge the health of your plants.
feeding nutes to seedlings in hydro is fine, as some of you have said.
correct me if i'm wrong about the nutes, but it is either general hydroponics or advanced nutrients that ARE formulated specifically for cannabis? i know it's one or the other.

advanced nutrients is what your thinking of. I'm not that advanced though haha. I use the FF 6 part nutrient system and attempt to tailor the ppm's to the needs of my women. I really like FF because of its organic properties and also because it breaks down so well for organic ferts. still learning haha.

Thanks man, and yes I am using a 6inch goblin carbon filter for the aroma... it smells great man. I've never even seen, heard or smoked BlueHog or Groman... but from the looks of it, it will be worth the wait.
Blueberry X Hogsbreath = yum
Romulan X Shaman X Grapefruit = [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4[/YOUTUBE]
haha, thanks for the complement. Looking forward to seeing some fat nugzzz on your grow to bro :jointsmile:

are you talking about the liquids and the soluble powders? if so, isn't the only one of those that is organic is the big bloom?
-shake
Citral Grow...Starting From Day 3 until I harvest!
yes I am, and the big bloom from what I understand is the only one that is both organic and natural. The others have organic materials in them but they have chemicals in order for the organic materials to break down more efficiently. One of the problems that I read about organic fertz is that they break down much slower and are less efficient then the non organic, the non-organic has all of the nutrients made available instantly. As for the organics it is supposed to break down at a slower rate and makes it hard to accurately read the ppm's. As I've stated before I am still learning, but that is what I have come to understand.
BigBloom = worm castings, bat poop... cant really remember, but to sumarize; yes, technichally the only fully organic fert is the big bloom.
You may correct me if I'm wrong.
p.s. not sure if the soluble powders are organic at all, can't remember :/
Citral Grow...Starting From Day 3 until I harvest!
you are right, big bloom is the only organic. the solubles are not. probably not even close.
not trying to jack your thread marty. what's up on some pics?

Headshake, I am starting to think you are into seedling porn. LMAO! :thumbsup:
So, not much going on today. Here is the progress so far, tomorrow, the plants are going in hydrotron...This is necessary! Enjoy the pictures!

i appreciate plants in general marty, thank you very much! i enjoy looking at peoples setups and stuff just as much. i like to see how others think, get ideas etc etc.
the plants look like they are coming around nicely. glad you have gotten a grip on your woes.
