Really cool look forward to it. Ya I was real impressed with the GG def going to keep her around just watch her stretch she gets a bit outta hand. Guess its the Choc Thi in there.

You ever try dosing your ferts with a controller? Like lets say if you went out of town?
I know with a bunch of additives its virtually imposable but Im trying to do a base only top off then I can add things manually unless Im away then they will get base only. Just wanted your take on it.

I like strains that stretch a lot. So I'll be happy as hell with that.

Never dosed nutes before. I have dosed PH down, since I usually have a little rise in PH for a few day after nutes are mixed. But I actually stopped using it. The damn probe needed to be cleaned and calibrated way too often, so it turned out to be easier to not use the PH doser.

Ya I can understand the probe getting gunked up (good gunk BTW) with all that foamin you got going on in your rez all the time. But what if you controlled your PH with a clean top off tank with just base 3 part in it only and then have that water top off your gunky rez.keeping it in check?

Thats what Im looking to do. It will take some dailing for sure but Im going to try it. The probe would be clean and do a weekly calibration like I do now. idk...playin with it.

I actually dont mind mixing nutes and checking PH. Plus each week, I mix my nutes a little different from the last. I slowly add more magnesium, more phosphorus, more potassium, more Sea Green, more sugars and carbs and I slowly cut back on the nitrogen. Total PPMs climb, then lower a little towards the end before flush. I flush once per week for a full day. So a nute doser wouldnt work for me, unless they have one with a 9 week memory that you can program?

I also tweak the temp and RH, from warm and wet, to cool and dry. Watering amounts increase as the plants grow. Light distance slowly increases from 2 feet, to 3.5 feet. Co2 starts off at 1,000 ppm, peaks around week 6-7 @ 1400ppm, then goes back down. So Im always in there messing with stuff, trying to mimic nature. The only controllers I use are for the lights, irrigation, Co2, temp and RH.

Understood Im just talking about being able to take a week off for vacation once and while. Not a permanent thing by any means.

Anyway ok well let me know how the breeding goes if you need any testing ;) JK
