what is the differnce in soaking for 5 min compaired to over night ?could have been the problem !tryed the cube slabs one and only got %50 so i just went back to the peat pucks
I rarely have trouble with it. I like it a lot because if a plant ends up being a super stretchy sativa, it gives it an extra footing that it doesn't always get in coir. Especially because coir loosens up so much when it dries out.

Why should that mean it isn't real?
Hey Rasjep ~ I'm wonder'n if you rinsed the coir? That shit is so salty, my choice is Pro-Mix BX , , great for the roots as it has the beastees in it, needs no PH , , and is a kick ass way of getting my F-1's to use their Hybrid vigor. Things appear a tad SOFT, everything should be pointing towards the lights, maybe a bit too wet? These are simply my suggestion, I haven't checked in to see how you were doing, Clops told me all the 7 popped, which isn't unusual for my gear. I use Seaweed extracts every third watering, is a super way to improve viability. The lemon Grinderz I have running here at the Battcave are off the charts lemon/fuel/funky/and they're only at 21 dayz of flowering. The larger the plant, the stronger the resin , , but not a rule. Subcool hates large plants, says that the tch is limited, so larger is diluted by its sheer size. I disagree. Sounds weird, and against my growing experience over 43 years. The end proof is always in the results, , , If anyone supports the legalizing of herb , , , get off the soapbox, and start growing HERB ! Then and only then will it be legal. Battman/Breeder/BeanBoyz

Yeah, I didn't rinse it as good as I should have. Whenever I start in coir the plants have a slow go because I'm not sure when to feed them to begin with.
I gave a 1/4 feeding, and they've started growing pretty fast now. Starting their first true leaf set

pH adjustment isn't instantaneous. Since pH is a function of Hydrogen ion concentration within solution, it takes awhile for the reagents (pH up and down in this case) to catalyze the suspended compounds that are creating an alkaline or acidic solution.
LOL WE here at BBG hate rockwool too! When it comes to Dank, Go Big or Go Home , , , Rasta vibe to all , ,

Jeph , , checking in on you Danksters here at the Growery. Growing indoors in 5 gallon buc shouldn't require drain holes. If you are outdoors, it rains in them, and yes dude, yous need them like crazy. I do things by weight , , , I know what is correct jess by lift'n. With holes indoors, the water runs out the holes before it soaks in. 5 gallon buckets require water about every 3rd day inside. I let them dry out too , , , as stress is great way to increase the resin production, and good for them roots too. I make my own soils here, love the hybrid vigor I get with it. The advantage of hybrids is this vigor. I realize peeps want to grow in space ships, in mid air, in tubes, steel wool, yet olde tech might be abandon too quickly? A quick way to grow with ease is Pro-Mix BX , forget the PH, forget the hassles , relax, roll a small reef(larger the less THC transfer) Fill a 5 gallon 4/5 way with PMBX, dusting time release in the bottom for when the roots get larger. Larger roots mean larger buds. What you cannot see is the most exciting part of the grow , ROOTS ! Buds can and often do lie to us , , , ever see Hemp? LOL ! Battman/BeanBoyz Gentics

thanks for clearing that up mr ball sack,think ill just stay wit the peat pucks since there down in the ph 5 range anyway ,stay with what works well i guess,little extra work but hey !
God I feel like such a dickbutt for not posting in this thread. I've had a lot of shit going on in the past few months, including a really REALLY hot early summer that made me have to redesign my entire grow room. I can usually go to early July before I have any trouble, but I was getting August heat in May.
Its so funny you bumped this because I didn't even look here. I pulled out my girl today to water her and figured it was definitely time for an update.
Shes 2 weeks in flower, however many weeks vegged. Not a spec of burn even though I've switched to FloraNova and I'm not familiar with it. Showing mainly its kush part as far as I can tell.
Very very little odor, which I'm loving.
I got 1 female out of the bunch...it seems my luck is always shit when it comes to regular seeds.
This has just been one of those times where the grow is fine, but everything else in my life is fucking me around and preventing the attention it deserves haha.
A little stretchy, but thats probably my fault.
I've managed to lose my good fucking camera somehow, but as she gets some trichs I'll borrow one of my homies cameras.
Once again, I feel really bad for slacking on this. I've just been getting fucked around a lot lately.

Oh, and I topped once (twice?) and shes in a 3 gallon bucket. Its the best I could do with all the other factors I had to work with (the new room, the heat, etc).
Shes a little top heavy so I might have to support her with stakes or something. Couldn't really bush it out like I wish I could have because I had to take down the entire veg room to make this work.
