So here we have 6 plants that have had the light cycle set to 12/12 today. 5 plants were started from seeds of good bud, sexed them about 2 months ago using a 300W CFL. Started with 10 seeds, ended with 5 females. A couple struggled, a few are doing awesome. Got clone of Blueberry from friend, grew a monster, cut all the buds off but a few at the bottom, stuck her on 24 hours light under a 300W CFL and within 2 or 3 weeks started to grow new leaves. Now it is decent size, not as big as before, but we are going to bud it again. Currently set up with a 250W Metal Halide hung about a foot or so above plants, and a fan running all the time on the plants. Have been pretty much completely organic with soil and fertalizers, but may stray from that on some budding nutes. Let me know what you think, always looking for advise and suggestions.

So i have previously tried adding the sweet carb additive, organic molasses, and a bloom enhancer 10-52-10. Also have dried bat guano, organic blood meal, and an organic fish and seaweed fertilizer. Occaisonally I have sprinkled epson salt on the top of the soil and then water it. Have done this quite a few times, and have only seen benefits from it. I only do it at the beginning of the budding cycle. The bloom enhancer definitely increased yield tremendously, but did make smoke more harsh than going completely organic. Any good suggestions on budding fertilizers i should try? I am constantly experimenting to find the best methods to get the best product.
