Nice bikes. Is it weird that’s the first thing I saw?
Welcome.
Be careful with any nutes at this point. Even cal/mag may not be necessary. They do fairly well in most soils for the first few weeks. If you’re in a fox farms soil it may be fine for several months with just h2o.
If you could fill out a support ticket it’d help us help you.

lol thanks, now that the girls are out of the garage we can get the bikesout and put some more miles on them.
As far as nutes go, from everything I read they looked like they could use some cal/mag and seem to be loving it. Just started with the FF trio at a weak dosage. They are not in a hot soil and next year I will use something better. Bought this soil before I started reading much and it was 50% off being the end of the season. They seem to be responding well. They had a good amount of roots when I transplanted them yesterday.
I haven’t checked ppms out yet but will start on their next watering. I’ve of course been adjusting the ph of our well water and checking run off and they are on track.
As always, thanks for the heads up!

I like the idea of the vinyl, hadn’t given that any thought. I wanted the pans to check run off but can already see I need something under the pans as they don’t catch everything.

No issues currently, wanted to start the journal and track everything in the event something does pop up the history will be there for all to see.
I have wanted to smoke again for 32 years now and in another couple of years when I can hang this career up I hope to be producing so much weed I make up for 34 years!
Thanks for all help and suggestions now and in the future. I’ve already learned so much by reading nearly every journal out there. So much my dreams are about solving weed issues lol
That must have sucked! But I guess we live and we learn. Some lessons harder than others. I will keep it in mind for next years grow and may add it to my flower room now, while it’s empty

I think you have this thang under control and I wish you the best of harvests…
my parting tip is to always make that the water is at room temperature before watering your gals.

@DankGunslinger, I think I have read every indoor, and several outdoor, journals on the forum. Trying to learn ahead of screwing things up I guess. Hopefully!
