    I'll reevaluate at the end of this grow for sure. I've got a buddy who makes a killer living soil and I may buy up some of his soil from him. That way everything is still water only. I was genuinely just curious about how the beanstalk could perform. The plants in the middle (The Hive) are the...

    No worries man and thank you. It's coco/perlite 70:30 and Beanstalk crf in autopots. I just ph the tap water reservoir at that's it. I'm not really a green thumb but these are about as healthy of plants as I've ever had regardless. It was not lost on me that you are looking out for my wallet as...

    Thanks for your advice. I will get a fresh start soon after I take clones. I doubt it would be a pH thing, the pH has been right from the start. I am adding nothing but tap water and pH'ing the reservoir. Only thing that could be true is root issues, but I didn't see anything wrong when I...

    I got the new Cloudforge T7 in the mail and set it up. I also received the VPD thermometer. The only problem I have with these items is that the temperature and humidity are inconsistent between the thermometer and the humidifier (the new T7 is awesome, by the way.) I bought a...

    My plants continue to grow but they are not looking completely healthy. The The Hive phenos look the most sad with droopy leaves and yellow spots between the veins of some leaves as well. There are some dying leaves on most of the plants. Overall, I am still happy with the results I have from...

    That's a big fear of mine. What kind of trays would you recommend? I know the aquavalves are finicky with being level.

    The plants are enjoying their dry back. I'm going to let them dry out for another 12 hours before I top water again. I will let the bases fill back up tomorrow. Some photos: Blueberry Bang Bang Grand Master Sexy The Hive Flower area I bought a few things on Amazon last night as...

    I took the hose from the dehumidifier out of the flower reservoir. I'm going to see how long it takes to fill a five gallon bucket and if I leave Area 51 for an extended period of time beyond that I can always run the hose back into the rez. There are varying ways of thinking when it comes to...

    I did not bother with letting the bases refill this morning and the plants do not seem to be uptaking water from the bottom quite yet. The first two times I let the bases fill up they were dry 24 hours later. This time they were not. This tells me that the wicking nature of the coco worked and...

    I was able to tighten the regulator so that there is no leak with the CO2. I'm maintaining a level of 900 ppm CO2 in the flower area when the lights are on. The plants are looking pretty good this morning, and they are beginning to recover nicely from their transplant a couple days ago. I top...

    I got the CO2 tank from the grow store and installed the CO2 regulator as well as the pH controller for my flower reservoir. The only issue I am having is that I don't have a tool to completely tighten the CO2 regulator to the tank. There may be a small leak. I am watching the CO2 levels to...

    I checked the CO2 meter again at lunch and it was sitting around 150 with me not in the room. I will be setting up the CO2 tank today or this week and getting the CO2 levels in check.

    The plants are still recovering from the transplant. I turned on the system yesterday and allowed the plant bases to fill up before turning the system off again. I top watered each plant with 2L of pHed tap water yesterday as well. This morning the plant bases were dry so the pots did absorb the...

    I've finished the scrog nets and transplanted the plants into their final 9 gallon containers without issue. I used the bags of Beanstalk crf I had premeasured and just mixed the fertilizer into the coco/perlite before I transplanted.

    I am getting ready to transplant tomorrow. The plants were removed from the veg tent today and defoliated. They will dry back slightly over night before being transplanted tomorrow. I also got started with the scrog net build.

    I reached back out to autopot over the weekend and have yet to hear back. The plants are still growing well. Here is a photo from this morning.

    The plants seem to be growing very well. The Hive may be my keepers for the next grow although I am interested to see how the other strains turn out, especially the Blueberry Bang Bang. Also, shout out to Beanstalk CRF, these plants are looking great!

    Are controlled release fertilizers going to change the game?

    You may not believe it but I spent 5 minutes weighing the beanstalk out and mixing it in the coco and all I do each week is check the water level and pH of my reservoir and I'm having amazing results in veg. There is a reason KIS sells this stuff.

    Are controlled release fertilizers going to change the game?

    Beanstalk nutes have been killer for me everytime I use them in veg. Will they work well for flower? Ask me again in a few months... Easy as pie and no longer am I spending 45 minutes each morning mixing nutrients and watering my plants.
