Skrappie's got a Secret

[Skrappie]

I was getting ready to feed some of the girls (one of which i'm starting to think is a boy) and i just wanted to stress to anyone who is reading this log.

TEST YOUR PH.

I have a 5 gallon bucket of pre-adjusted ph water that always sets at about 6.5
Today I mixed in my super awesome flowering nute soultion, and my ph droped way below 4.0. I say way below because my test stops at 4.0 and it took me a LOT of ph up to bring it to 6.0, about 6 times the amount that i've ever used.

Dear fellow noob grower, if you were to have some healthy plants, and you went out and got yourself some new nutes you wanted to try, and did not test your ph (in the same situation) your plants can die.

In countless hours of pre-grow research (see years) I don't even think that i've seen PH problems like the ones i would have had on my hands if i would have just feed the plants without the obligatory second, third and sometimes even fourth ph test.:stoned:

Hey man. Your grow is looking better and better. How long did you veg your plants before going 12/12?

You may notice that my girls seem a little....tied up at the moment.

I'm all about the extreme bondage when it comes to growing, I don't really care too much about growing fan leaves if ya know what i mean....

Though, they do still have, and absorb a lot of energy, so i' just tie them up in groups, and let them soak up, and give to my flowers as much energy as they can, while exposing the flowers that i crave so, to as much light as possible.

please excuse the shoe strings,

happy growing folks.

Them's some good lookin girlies ya got there skrappie! Bout how long do they have left?

All 5 girls are doing well except for one of the larger ones who is showing a slight sign of burn. I think it may hit a bone meal "hot spot" in the soil, I now knowi should have mixed it up better, but while i was doing it, it looked okay. oh well ya grow and ya learn.

This is week three day three of flower.

I had a crap-tastic day at work, so i came home to take some pictures and relax. I'm going to smoke some pot now then harass the old lady while she cooks. Happy hump day everybody.

We are here to save your life
The fool, the drunk, the child, and his wife
We won't let the sun go down
We gonna chase the demons out of town
Singing when you feel alone
Backwards through the megaphone
Singing to the ones you love
And the ones you'd like to be rid of.

They look good as usual. What ya feedin em?

Your plants are looking GREAT! I'm doing LST with my plant now and it's been completely awesome.

And you're def. right about testing PH. If there is one thing that I learned on my first grow, is that PH will be the life or death of your plants. You can't test it enough.

Keep up the good work! :thumbsup:
