As I recall the winner pulled out a bit more than an ounce. I'll be watching.
i used dolomite lime in the soil, but i was afraid to add to much, so i dont think i even added enough to make a difference. supposed to not allow the ph to go above 6.5, but i didnt grind into enough into powder either when i added it in. so it might have released it to strong in one area and damaged my roots, causing lock out, which woulda made salt build up and effect my ph. ill have to look at the roots and see.

next batch ill crush the lime up into powder when i add it in, and change my feeding scheldule from feeding every other watering, to feeding every 3rd watering. so from (water-wait 2 days-feed-wait 2 days-water) to (feed-wait 2 days-water-wait 2 days-water-wait 2 days- feed-wait 2 days). this should reduce any build up and reduce lock out. and ill be watchin the ph so the next batch should yeild me more then this...but we'll just have to see. each previous harvest i keeped improving SOMETHING, so i think this next batch will be just bout dailed in 100% and provide a much better harvest.

i saw that grow too, i laughed when i saw a plant LSTd in a "party cup"
