Coco vs FFOF mid-veg conversion:
Welcome, everyone. I think we need more beer already. :glugglug:
Glad I decided to do this. Got some surprises already.
After the first 24 hours, all the plants are doing very well. I may have kick-started the soil plants a little more than usual in my attempts to keep everything "even."
Normally, when I transplant up a size with FFOF, I just water--no added ferts. The FFOF is pretty hot with worm poo, bat poo, etc. so I generally just water well and let the plants relax in low level light for a day or so; the idea being I want new roots first and more lettuce later.
But, since I was nuting the coco, I added FF Gro-big to the dirt. :stoned: :hippy: And everybody went back under the lights fairly soon, but a pair of shoplights is hardly intense lighting.
And, I'm really hampering those coco plants. The wastebaskets are kinda elliptical and the 1 gal. pots barely fit inside them. So rather that being totally surrounded by coco, these plants have coco underneath and on 2 sides. And, they're still in a big-ol' soil rootball. So they are probably unaware I was expecting a huge growth spurt from them. I still expect it once the roots go exploring.
Here's the sativas:

Way too early to judge anything. Looks like the coco plant is producing larger leaves. These were not this big 24 hours ago.

Also getting some nice development in the midsection. Musta had summa Weez' beer.

Here's the soil sativa. Lots of development of new structures, but not the increase in size of the growing leaves like in coco.

The soil plant showed me a preflower. No big deal, I just liked the pic.

Coco vs FFOF mid-veg conversion: Well, I kinda ran outta space so I had a pair of indica dom clones, and a pair of sativa doms to :weedpoke: It's just mids bagseed, vegging under CFLs, and not much of them. I try to maintain a responsible carbon footprint, (size 10EE). :hippy: Been rooted for 3-4 weeks now (the plants, not me) in FFOF. Gonna take one of each pair and try a mid-veg conversion to coco. Leave the other as a "control" to compare to the coco results. I tried to give the "Soil Team" every advantage by picking Rating: 5Need advice wth plant problems?
