E-indoor
E-soil
E-Farfard Pro - w/ added ferts (see below)
CSL-Soil type/brand - Farfard Pro
SCL-Anything you have added to the soil
Transplant #1 Ertwrm castings, greensand, additional Perlite, Pulv Dolomite
SCLR-Soil or slab runoff pH
Very alkaline well water base - possibly over 8.0. But during first 10 weeks stupidly corrected to 6.9 vs 6.6 or below.
E-Water source
Drilled well.
E-Source water pH
Way way over 7.8 (guestimate based on Wardley color match)(aka - off the chart alkaline)(recent flush off has me and the 2 girls down to 6.8 pH (only))(also should note pH was acidity was adjusted using RealLemon of all things - I suspect lacks risidual pH trueness over time)
E-Age of plant
15 weeks/110days
E-Type of fertilizer
Mild side Peters 20-20-20 (maybe 6-8 times, sorry I lost exact count), couple feedings each of Schultz Cactii formula and Vigaro Root, Seaweed/Fish, never combined, but keep in mind worm castings added to the Farfard 1st transplanting, but skipped on the second transplanting.
E-Rate of application -
As a rule of thumb I chose to water/feed veg cycle by letting plants go almost dry before watering during weeks while in - gasp - I beg mercy here - in clear unblackened plastic juice jugs - shaded but by then also bottom (prob also side light stressed) ??root bound?? slash ??oxy space tease deprived? added transplant soil volume -- I retrospective guess at WEEKS worth x approx, with light scarin roots into total submission. Geexums. I was such a hardass on the deprivator of moisture (deprivation of air(as we animals know it)=ing oxygen a similar oxygen deprivation myth raito as plants burn it off to make root tissue etc), given the stuff I have read. I am a basic moron even when it comes to Newtonian specifics on pure water molecule drainage. Let alone light weight crap that gets carried around in water.
Hey, peoples. I know I screwed up. I was convinced those neatly sized cut off juice jugs would easily transition me to sexing stage - quick enough to go right into 5 gallon container - being the transplant importance hethen that I became. Lazy (time constrained) butthead, me.
E-Lighting
Pre transplant seedlings did great under a 3 bulb, traditional 18? Flo lamp. 4? or less distance. I really do feel like a total retard as go over this confession now.
Normal Veg period likely got messed up by not having T5 purchase decision made for many weeks while redesigning slightly expanded cab SCROG frame plus stealth.
New criteria suggestion CanCom should entertain for consideration maybe, Stinkie.
How stealthy is one seriously needing to be about these very principles of indoor gardening. There oughta be a fork in the roadway on whether your ventilation challenge is one thing or another. Example fair maiden. For submission anyways. Flos leave people too way at the mercy of commercial nutrient intersts. But more subtley put. Even this effort I am required to make, seems far to formal a process for yer masters to expect any great degree of ??effectiveness? with, especially if they can induce to become too much of a pain in ass. Instead of a ahem community. I for one would much prefer a few simple spasms of the diaphragm and do a basic Chong impersonation.
Sorry.
Straightens same tie he wore at Yale graduation. Yeahlikeright. Lol.
Substitue light was - get this - a pair of 8?? traditional flos. Cool spec side (my luck backup transition tho ironically I need some stretching for horiz single or two plant sog), Yet distance under 8??trs was kept within 8? - 10? max.
E-Air temperature (both day and night if you are running a dark period)
This was a challenge. And a cause of stress when temp control was not anticipated during Feb and March. Nighttime open basement room air temps were threatening to go below sub63F had I not resorted to cheap space heater (which then had a tragically unfortunate, plant stressing thermo meltdown one night and slow baked-toasted-dried-out lowest 5 nodes of 5 of 6 remaining adolescents one overnight. Daytime temps (oil heat) were manageble to let??s say 69-72F on ave. Not exceeding 80F ??cept for the heater meltdown. Best I could do at the time was use an opposite side aggitation fan to blow back and ??disperse? the (dammit) dumb space heater idea. The whole rest of that basement room was probably pressin in at 62F some of those nights during.
This warrants a container focused qualifier, Stick. I should not have missed the import of root darkness, this grow-round.
E-Air % Relative humidity
Definitely on the dry side but not technically measured. Decade seasoned dry concrete basement. I presume less than 57% on average.
E-Lighting schedule
Per Cervantes I went with easier 24/0 all thru seedling stage and during veg for too many weeks. When sexing appeared too delayed I went 18/6 for about the second 6 or so weeks.
Note: On a couple o nights nights during late March they mighta gotten as much as 10 hrs sleep. Me sleepin late by mistake. But not ever more than that. Unexpected part about sexing this time was - I suspect - cause of the clear plastic - waiting until sex showed b4 doin a final ??third? (ONLY) transplanting into the final 5gal fixation I had goin on.
In retrospect I dunno how I got away with it the last time. I don??t.
E-Type of ventilation your room has
Have an Elicent, OdorSok and HEPA filter all ready to duct up to well planned, 70cf flowering chamber. 6? diameter based intake and exaust. And like a 1/3rd normal cost HEPA intake which should deliver a nice, now worse than mild negative pressure cabinet flow. With the CAP fan speed controller the Elicent??s db??s or somes, on lowest possilble cruise speed, oughta fair pretty well - I hope - for a total stealth - indoor T5 exhaust.
TR-Did you pre-soak your media in pH corrected solution?
No.
It was Farfard soil.
What have you used for pH adjustment since moving on from RealLemon juice?
A product called pH Down, thankee fer askin. GH. Not sure. Stink. I have no head for strikin the remaining brain cells to cataloging details and I got a stroke vic wife in tow who is gonna be fine except half my battle is knowing I got her snowed on this lower profile wind power thing I wanna do in the face of the local corp land grab - aka - wind SRAPER concepts - aka - eyesores - oversized - fine - then flippin design em so a few birds per yr aren??t gettin too old for hurricane rated wind speed visual parameters. State your preferred threshold of tradeoffs here. Hmph.
Do you own a 3-pronged Rapidtest meter now, and are you willing to veg recover your stealth grow for another 4 weeks before beginning to enter the final flowering nirvana?
Yes.
Do you already have a fairly confusing array of net bot purchases of nutrients that literally twists your brain into a pretzel.
Yes. Yes I do.
How many deeds do you own.
You mean seeds?
Yes, seeds.
Just some bag seeds ones.

thanks guys
I prolly just did a stupid thing this close after a full 3x flushing in a 1 gallon grow bag under T5's.
After at least 72 hrs of watching these 2 fairly flirty look like they could revert to a veg state for me - I am such an international erotica stud posing as a normal person here.
fuck that
will post a few pics asap

Been away from the discipline a few years.
I appreciate you can give my rialed up impatience some lattitude a little bit.
Thank you.
Will try to post pics tonight.
