I love your advise X15, Tangwena also told me to let it dry out far more and I believe he's completely right about that as are others and yourself so I'm doing just that... But by nutrient uptake you mean to say too many nutrients right? Because yes the soil is full of nutrients of all kind for all stages and the Monster Bloom is also highly concentrated...
But if I pull out the fabric out the roots will get pulled out of the soil that are in the bucket!!!! Tangwena what do you think should I pull them out?
That kind of sounds like the human body when it works out too much heavy weights but doesn't take enough protein, it takes from the bones... Sounds logical... The water I'm using is from this sink but it's almost filtered but no chlorine or anything just drinkable water... The soil however does have a ton of nutrients but since the roots are now spread outside of the fabric pot and throughout the bucket of pot where the soil never gets watered at all, it really actually seems as if those lower roots are not getting nutrients whatsoever since I checked the soil and it's really bone dry... Freakishly dry infact... I checked thinking it'd be wet as hell just an hour ago, it's not.... At all infact.... And this soil mix I'm using needs water to soak it long enough for the nutrients to be absorbed.... Since I only water in the fabric pot on top by spraying the top roots get nutrients and lots of them infact it seems but the lower ones don't that are root bound in the bucket.... I checked it and the soil is so dry, as if it has never seen water (the one beneath and around the fabric pot that is... But I've also never water the soil in the bucket yet before because I didn't want drown it and so that it doesn't stay wet for too long.... I also use Monster Bloom in my water except for today and yesterday.... And less water these past two days... Seems hella confusing though... The top of the plant seems happy with it's nutrients and water supply and the bottom part fan leaves don't... But that's what it looks like.... I can't be so sure as this is my first grow...
Well like I said, the soil has tons of nutrients Bio.Bizz All mix which it's certainly gets lots of but that's only in the fabric pot, and Monster Bloom is added in the water, however I just noticed that all of the soil underneath the fabric pot and around it when I temporarily took it out has never even been wet before and a big portion of the roots are all spread around that dusty soil which I just learned that they have never gotten nutrients before, but the top roots in the upper soil in the fabric pot have always been getting nutrients.... The bottom roots have been staying in empty dry soil for weeks now which I just learned today, the soil only gives it's nutrients if it's been sitting in water according to Alchemia web where I got it from therefore the bottom soil has never been exposed to water from the looks of it where tons of masses of roots are laying there when I lifted it up and checked it... The reason I never watered the soil in the bucket is out of fear that it wouldn't be able to drain... The lights are off now, would it hurt to water the dry soil in the bucket right now, meaning turn on a dimmer light and have the bone dry soil wet for tomorrow during light hours? (By that I mean not watering the soil in the fabric pot but just the one in the bucket, any ideas anyone??? Of course I don't like the idea of waking it up, but then again, if this is really urgent... Idk Like I said the top soil aka the one in fabric pot is well desolved in nutrients and water, but is now in between moist and dry, the bottom soil which even the pictures don't show where slot of roots hang out and the one around it apparently has never released any of it's nutrients due to never having been watered (I just found that out two hours ago... Therefore the upper roots have always gotten plenty of nutrients and water and maybe even too much while the lower ones have not gotten anything for many weeks now....
The soil apparently is made for all stages in other words has nutrients for all of them but that's only if the soil has been sitting in water for over 36 hours or something like that and after a month the soil wet soil eventually gets used up and therefore has no more nutrients, however even in the fabric pot there is new soil, but all of the soil in the bucket both below the fabric pot and around has never even touched water it seems or even the Monster Bloom.... And there are many many roots there, I wasn't able to take a picture of it since I had to hold both things at once, so therefore I'm explaining it... I was devistated at how dry the soil was below the fabric pot, not just around it but there is so much of it below it that even the picture doesn't show....For 2 weeks maybe. What have you been feeding the plant with, just the bloom booster???
There's your problem.
She needed feeding.
Yikes
, well I can't go back in time now, I can't order anything now and have it arrive this month either, same thing I talked about was the timers everyone left the thread because of... So apparently I need calcium too and many other things in it... Okay well I'll know for future grows but they may not be soon because I'll have to save or invest enough to have a second place to live at to grow, apartments here are not ideal, no time to go into that story though, I have five other seeds in the fridge but no time to start another cultivation now. I'm stuck with this soil and Monster Bloom for this run... Okay so what does that mean for the forming buds??? Everyday they look better by the way ... I guess I should add water into the soil in the bucket as well...
You probably don't need all those bottles of things, just a grow feed and a bloom feed or an all in one and a pk booster.Yikes
I barley fed her any water today and yesterday... And I even let the top soil dry out like everyone said, it actually seemed to dry out within thirty minutes or so or begin to do so, idk.... This week I began only spraying until the top soil was somewhat dampish wet, two or three times a day, I started less and less and freaked out that it was still too much and began just going downhill with the watering... I'm only spraying it now .... Weeks ago I used to just pour in the whole bottle, these past two weeks everyday I just spray for about thirty seconds or a minute twice a day since everyone keep telling me to slow down with watering and let it dry out.... Even the top feels pretty dry now.... The bottom has never had water in the soil ever since I put it soil beneath the fabric pot where the roots were sticking out a long time ago from all sides both bottom and from the sides.... The soil underneath which is much more than the pictures show is literally as dry as it's bought.... So is the fabric pot... There are so so many roots there but they look white big and healthy... I'm just worried about the air their getting... The air actually literally was almost poisonous outside now for two days, it could be coming from our city which has always had an issue with the most highest level of toxic air... Fortunately I live almost outside the city in what's a forestry mountain area and it's a lot better here than when I lived in the city where you literally couldn't breath some days without feeling sick... Today and yesterday it was very suffocating air as well but also it was windy and even I had trouble breathing it in ... But luckily it's coming back to normal now .. It could be suffocation from unhealthy air and underwatering maybe?
Idk But the past two days I haven't stopped cleaning the whole place due to the open aired windows apperantly making the floors black and full of so much dust... I wasn't concerned for my health but for the plant....
