All is still alive.
Snowryder #1 2" tall
Snowryder #2 2 1/4" tall
Snowryder #3 2 1/2" tall
Snowryder #4 2 1/4" tall
Both White Sharks are about 11" tall, and the tops are roughly 21" around.
The White Sharks got some Wormcasting, 0-5-0 bat guano, maxicrop kelp, molasses, and some MycroGrow Soluble microbes that all brewed for about 44 hrs. except for the microbes that I add the last hour of brew. No pH today, just letting it do it's work, I would probably guess that the pH was around 8 ish. But the microbes will feed and balance this out. Well I think that is what it is suppose to do from my readings. Some pH their tea's and others don't. We shall see, I would really like to get that yellowing from the new growth to go away from White Shark #2.
Having a high EC which I probably do, with all the organics in my soil and feedings, Sulfur gets used up quick. So that is what I think the yellowing is from and why I have added Epsom Salt to help correct the deficiency that I think is occuring. No Epsom in the tea today, just hoping for any natural sulfur from the tea or make some available that is present in the soil from the feeding today.
I gave both 4 pint sized glasses, and filled up the watering trays that I used with some for the roots to soak up. I let sit usually an hour or more before placing back under the lights.
The Snowryders just got a little more airflow and a light breeze on them to help make their stems and stalks nice and fat, like the White Sharks.
Hope everyone is having a nice day

I was looking for any recommendations on the best way to use fox farms ocean forest for autos. I've used FFOF by itself and gotten good yields but theres room to improve. Mainly, I get some brown on the leaves from what seems to be nute burn(from what i can tell). Is adding fox farms light warrior to the mix able to fix this problem or is there something else to add in that would help? Straight Perlite? I almost always have good temps, humidity, plenty of light, etc. I'd like to stick with FFOF as the base soil if possible, that seems to be the best thats available to me. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks
I made a super soil mix of fox farm ocean forest, light warrior, and their original planting mix plus a bag of black gold. Then I mixed in some Mykos and Azos, and topped it off with a small amount of happy frog Tomato and Vegetable stuff. Oh yeah also some perlite and dolomite lime. I imagine it would do really good for autos, especially the Mykos (will make any soil grow significantly more kick ass)

That definately would work. I believe around here, people use 2 bags of FFOF to 1 bag of FF Happy Frog Soil Mix instead of the Light Warrior, And ammend as jdizzle22 said.I made a super soil mix of fox farm ocean forest, light warrior, and their original planting mix plus a bag of black gold.

But either way should work. I would also add some wormcastings and/or humus from Alaska upto 10% of the soil mix. And feeed with tea's as needed.
Good luck, happy farming

Daily update.
Babies are looking good. It looks like I may be able to tell the sex in a few more days, it is day 15 and 16 already. The side branches are looking good, by the morning they should be all the way out and maybe starting on the second set of leaves on those in a day or so
Fed some 6.5 pH'd water today, got a little run-off and it was also 6.5 pH.
No water for the White Sharks, just raised the lights about 1 3/4" from where they were. The light is now around 6 1/2" from the tops. I might have pics tomorrow if I water them, if not, definately the next day.

It is also the tallest now at 3 1/2".
#1 is now 2 3/4" tall
#2 is now 3" tall

No water today for them.
The White Sharks are doing O.K. need to maybe do a nice flush before I feed tea again next week.
They have grown alot now and are about 12 1/2" tall, they are stretching a bit.
They did get some Cal-Mag+ today in their water.

Hi everyone.
I don't want to double post... I should have posted here initially. It would be great if some of you autoflower experts would check out my pics and give me some tips on my little project.

thanks in advance.

Hey guys, Day 17 & 18 for the Snowryders, and Day 6 of Flower for the White Sharks.
Snowryder #2 (Day 17) under a 10x magnifying glass is showing female pistilates (white hairs).
Hopefully by tomorrow morning or evening I should be able to get a photo, kinda too small to see yet.
They have not grown much since yesterday but doing well.
The White Sharks grew maybe another 1/2" or so since yesterday.
No water at all today, maybe some for the Sharks tomorrow, but it looks like the Snowryders can wait another day after that. Enjoy

Up a bit early this morning, just took a peak at the Snowryders.
#1 (Day 19) and #2 (Day 1
are both showing female pre-flowers/ flowers this morning.
#4 (Day 1 is still yet to show sex, and #3 (Day 1 showed male flowers 3 days now.
I will assume that #4 will be a female, since males show first and are the most vigorous, and it is lacking and yet to show sex like the others.
Update and pics later of the Snowryders and White Sharks.

The Snowryders are all sexed now.
#1,#2,#4 are all Females
And #2 is the male I hoped for.
Bottom fed just a bit in their trays with some cal-mag+.
The White Sharks do need their Nitrogen, lost a few leaves today.
I will give them another 2 weeks before I start to pollenate some of the flowers to make some White Shark x Snowryder seeds and go from there.
They got 1 tsp per gallon of Cal-Mag+, taking in a little over a gallon between the 2.
I started t brew a tea also today for Monday morning consisting of: Wormcastings, bloodmeal (12-0-0), alfalfa meal (2.1-1-1), 1 tsp of maxicrop soluble, 1 Tbl of HappyFrog bat guano (0-5-0), and 1 Tbl of molasses.
This was mixed in 50% de-chlorinated water/ 50% koi pond water (gathered from the waterfall). A total of 2 galllons, 1 gallon each. No microbes will be added this time, should be enough in the soil and ingredients.
For brewing my tea's, I just use a bucket and (2) 8" airstones attached to an airpump, and brew for 24-48 hours.
