patient grow 2nd time around

Cool, alrighty..ill look into the rapid rooters. can they be found at any basic hydroponics shop?

My room mates wife bought me some molasses today also! I may use that a bit later on..I dont know what black strap molasses is, and im not sure if thats what she got me..but the only ingredient in this is unsulfured molasses. Is that safe to use?

Thanks again for all the advice and everything, I really appreciate it!

This is the molasses I got from my cousins wife. Anyone familiar with this brand? I tried to snap a shot of the nutrition facts, but it didnt turn out as sharp as I thought it would. The only real ingredient, like I said earlier, is unsulfured molasses. I think it should be alright to use, but I wanted some second opinions.

never used molasses but that is the kind they use. what kind of nutes are you using again? a base nutrient is usually important. molasses and other sugars are usually added about 2 weeks into flowering. or when bud sites are showing. I'm not sure if that is what you were asking but looks good in their.

Yep, thats basically what I was wondering, if this was a good molasses to use for flowering..im using a 12-6-6 fert right now that seems to be working well. Ive used it before with good results. I think the brand is Age Old, but I could be mistaken. Im trying to find a good fert for flowering, something like 6-12-6 or something maybe? Im not too sure yet. I might have to fiddle with a few different npk ratios before I find one that works well for my plant when flowering.

Thanks for the advice!

So I was thinking about maybe trying to promote more vegetative growth by topping or bending, lst or whatever I think. Anyone have any suggestions on what route I should take with that? Or should I just let her be?

looks good I have herd of age old but never used them, how ever I suggest using a bloom nute as a base too not just a npk additive. but their looking great as far as I can see. I see ago old has some good stuff I would go with them since you are already going with them, but personally what ever is available to you locally is best, unless you have advanced nutrients in your area then that is best (my opinion).

toping them would do good, toping usually starts very early on, to those trying to make a bush type of plant. but if you top now you could get better results, then if not topped. by topping your getting more cola and bud sites, so i say always top especially if you have the room. just remember to stop toping about a week or 2 before 12/12. here is a vid on toping, from a skilled grower.

thanks for the links mad, im checkin em out right now!

yeah this guy knows whats up, I am watching some of his vids now too lol. one to watch out for this guys knows his stuff, if you look at his stalks or the base of the plant this guys stalks are massive by conparsion to most. I like this cause if the stalk is big the roots are big which means in harvest the buds will be big.

This Koma dude is quite the character.. listening to death metal while calmly talking about nodes.

Nice plant by the way jedi man. Best of luck with it!
