DB Cooper's Apple Fritter clones

Okay I will give more water next time when I do. I ended up tossing some in the backyard plants last time because the one gallon was a bit too much. They are only in one gallon plastic pots right now, about to be potted up this weekend. Roots are showing through the bottom today.

Good to go.! and I’m sure that meter is a 500 scale.
It does have some calibration solution, so if has never been , might give it a go. General range is A-Ok with ppm, pH not so much, as the scale is X10.

Roots nice bright white! :+1: They’ll air prune to boogery brown in a few days perfectly normal.

I use the same ph pen. I calibrate every 2 weeks because the calibration solution is cheap and my seeds and plants and time arent lol.

I forgot to add the epsom i used but i use the 3 2 1 jacks and epsom is the 1 lol

Bioblend is coco, peat, and perlite? If so, you’re ph is too high. Coco target ph is lower than soil target ph. I am coco/Jack’s and ph in is 5.8.

My advice is to continue at full strength, get 20%-ish run-off (more won’t hurt), and stop measuring run-off ph/ppm.

This all assumes what’s in the pots now is bioblend and not something soil-y that came with the plants.

Right now they are in promix, but thanks for pointing it out @DrWoo . With my previous grows being soil it would be easy to forget that I need to pH lower now.

That’s exactly what I thought might have happened. We get into a routine…

Promix makes several different mix’s if it is HP or BX it has no nutes and needs them daily.

Thanks for the tag, I’m set to watch. :v: :green_heart:

Dr Cooper performed transplant surgery yesterday. Overall it went successful.

These are my grow bags from the last grow. I left them out in a couple rain storms. Then I washed them with the hose. The next day they still had some which stuff that looks like salt still on it so I sprayed it with the hose again and scrubbed it down with a brush. After all that there was still some residue on it.

Before

During



This was my first time using mycos. It seemed really awkward to try to put them on plants. I was holding the main stem in between my middle fingers. I rested the root ball sideways on my knee and sprinkled the mycos over that. I’m sure there has to be a better way.

I was so busy doing the transplant last night. I forgot to have any water set aside. Oops!
I use chlorinated tap water. I poured out two gallons this a.m. at 5:00. I put a fish bubbler on it to hopefully get the chlorine in the gas off a bit quicker.
Should I use the water today? Would I be better off boiling the water to get the chlorine out? Or should I just go buy some distilled water at the grocery store for today?

I do a soap and bleach soak/wash and my white rain science bags come fairly clean…but there is still a small amount of stuff left on the bags.

You’d think. I sprinkle in the bottom of the hole and a little on the root ball. Hard to get it to stick to the root ball though.

Roots look great! They’ll love all the new leg room they have.

What soil are you using?

I feed right after transplant with Jacks and all the other usual extras…I use Happy Frog. And I use RO exclusively…no more tap for me, so I’d vote for getting DW.

The soil is bioblend 365 coco
In the first post on this thread I have a pic that shows what’s in it.
