Real Gorilla Glue

I got a thread in the Gorilla Glue section but it was kind of turning into a grow log, so I figured I’d just start a grow log.
We’ll here they are today. The first day their looking like proper ladies. They had kinda a ruff start. I’m not real good at seeds and I didn’t give them any nutes until they were bout 11 days from when their tap roots popped out. They’re in 1.5” rockwool cubes in rocks in a 5 gallon bubble bucket with Fox Farm 326 @ 10 ml per gallon. So they’re kinda tiny for 22 days old I guess. They seem to have just now kicked in tho. They started to look better when I bumped up their nutes.
We’ll the plan is to clone each of them and flower out the cuts so I can decide on a mother. I got a middle room upstairs with a 1k hps, air pump, nute pump, heat extraction fan for the hood, and most of the odds and ends Il need to flower out the cuts. I went a bit overboard with the stuff I got cause the plan is to invest some product into 3 more lights and pick 3 more strains.
So I figure Il keep these as good as I can and enjoy the ride. My next step will be to fill the other 3 buckets and separate these so I can give them better attention. I got a little help so I’m gonna do it tomorrow.

Thank you Northern Man. I fashioned it after my last system. I can feed 4 lights from there. That’s the plan too. Il feed 4 lights with 4 buckets around each. It’s gonna be a tight little room tho. It’s only bout 12’x10’ but I think I can squeeze it all in there.
Damn I can’t wait to get back into the swing of things. It’s been 7 long years since I’ve grown now. And things have sure changed a lot. Thc contents have gone threw the roof! It’s a crazy new world in just 7 years. I really like most of the changes I see. And it sure is good to be back here again!
Thanks for stopping in Northern Man!

Damn they seem to be moving now. It seems like they’re assimilating to their enviorments. It sure is great getting back into the swing of things! Il get a little tag system going on to identify them in a minute. I got a friend coming over later on to help me fill 3 buckets up and gettem down here. I got no slop sink in my basement so I got no water down here. But other than that it’s a nice little moms and clones aria.

Here they are today. Idk but it looks like I could give them a little bit more of that 326. They’re at 10 ml per gallon at 6.4 ph. I’m gonna take a closer pic if I can.

You keep your pH up that high during this stage?

I meant to say low. I'm having a bad typo day something fierce. lol

I can see the nitrogen in it’s veins and the rest is a bit lighter. I think Il bump it up. I’m at 10 ml per gallon now. Full strength(heavy) feeding is 15 ml per gallon. So I guess Il split the difference andgo up to bout 13 ml per gallon.
Sweet! I just gotta remember to give them another 13 ml of that 326 later. Here we go, 13 ml 326 today.

I bet they green up nice now. Il givem another 13 ml of the 326 in a few days. I know they’ll like it.
And I finally got my ph test drops of preference! They’re API ph test drops. The chart is so much better for me. I adjusted my ph as soon as I got in. Sure enough it was high. For some reason the GH test drops are hard to read for me. Plus my API drop chart is in .2 increments. It’s easier for me to be more accurate. And their is even a color specifically designated for 6.4 on the chart. The closest color on the GH kit is 6.5 and then ya just gotta go by the shade. Anyhow. I’m glad I got my preferable test drops.

They look nice today. I think I’m just gonna drop their ph tho.
Does anybody know how heavy I can feed these? I like to feed heavy. Most often I bump shitt up till I see some burn on my tips, then I back off a bit. Could anybody tell me if these girls like to eat? So far their at 13 ml per gallon. They seem to like it so far.

I wish I could help with an aqua set-up.

My GG plants in a soil-less medium were good feeders through the grow. From my last log of the plant I ran EC ranges:

Seedling = 0.95 - 1.10
Veg. = 2.0 - 2.2
Flo. Init. = 2.2 - 2.6
Flo. 2.0 - 2.5
Late Flo. 2.6 - 2.7

For me, those were pretty high EC ranges. The GGs also took up a surprising amount of water during Flo. Init. too. But I was dealing with RH ranges between 38 and 43 at the time.

Here’s my new test kit and my old test kit. The GH makes it harder for me to distinguish 6.0 and 6.5. It’s lots easier for me to read the 6.4 on the API. And the API even has a color specifically for 6.4. And I can cross refer if I need to. View attachment 18715195
