Did some more defoliating this morning. Im not sure if im gonna feed tomorrow. Soil is dry a couple inches down but pretty moist after. Im just gonna keep letting them tell me. I got the water treatment so no more having to set water out. This way I donāt have to guess when to set water out.
Happy Monday guys!!

Someone mentioned the best kind of soil to use is not miracle grow. What is the best suggested soil? Also my PH atlas (up and down) arrived today and Iām getting so excited. Iām trying to locate a light still and Iām not sure how to go. Hidās and hpsā prob arenāt the best way to after reading everything. It looks like led is the better way to go, but the Bible suggests white light not the full spec. As advertised. Iām very confused on the light part, but trying to be cheap isnāt helping the matterā¦lol? What about a used Led cheap light? @Myfriendis410, @dbrn32, @Missiles, @imSICKkid

Cool guys thanks! Iām pretty sure I looked at one of those. There was a galaxy hydro 300w for about 50-60 bucks. The guy said he used it 4 months straight in 2016 and itās sat every since. From what I read, Iām pretty sure the Bible said 2-3k hours is all those have and Iām guessing it would go out about 1 month into my project and burn out. I keep seeing the fox farms soil and it seems decently priced.

There are a ton of options. It would be best if you decided to use an amended soil that will feed for a while, or something inert that you will have to provide nutrients for?

My wwa has been flowering since about 3-10 and looks as if it has another 3-4 weeks left. Also when you switch to full on bloom nutrients, you may want to run a flush to get rid of all the salt buildup and remaining grow nutes
Fox farm soil is good you just have to remember that itās full of nutrients when you get it so you donāt have to feed for a good 5 to 6 weeks. Youāll know once you track your run off numbers and that will let you know when to feed. Iām not sure about buying a used light you might want to ask @dbrn32 what his thoughts are on that

Iāve grown good bud with roleadro lights. Had x2 300w 2nd generation oneās and the 400w cob. Pulled an lb off that plant
Ya, spending a little more on light will pay off. Probably on your first harvest, and then every there after for next 6-8 years. What size is your grow space?

you think I should flush even though I never added any grow nutes to the soil? I never started giving them any nutes in the water until I introduced the bloom nutes.
@MattyBear whenever you have the time. Iād like to hear some recommendations on stuff that im looking for in a high/strain.

Not sure. Iāve never used foxfarms soil. Probably not. But I found that if you continue to feed grow nutes throughout the stretch with autos they get way bigger

There are a ton of options. What you DONāT want is anything that says: āmoisture controlā or ādoesnāt need feeding for 3 months!ā. Those are loaded with harsh fertilizers that are not PH buffered for cannabis (which is a pretty big thing). Anything to do with tomatoes isnāt going to be bad but buyer beware. Iām not an organic nazi but I do pay attention to the ingredients I use 'cause IāM smoking it! Just look for good quality, organic where possible. Scottās, Fox Farms, Roots Organics and others are producing a tailored soil for your girls.
