Nice. Well if your in Oklahoma and grab some smoke from one of the shops, I may have had a hand in the grow environment:p. F5 farms, Hartland Farms, Creek wood Farms and few others we do the controls for their grow rooms. They have some legit product for sure.

Yeah man... it's crazy what's been going on in the past 3 years here. Last year was the first time I've had to go knock on door to move product. Before that, I'd get my doors beat down before I had a crop cured, and was getting top dollar. Now, it's a race to the bottom.

Yeah I live an hour outside of Tulsa and you can drive down the roads here and see cannabis farms popping up all over the place. Dispensaries are on every other corner of Tulsa. Grow shops are booming right now with everyone growing their own. The only problem with that is everyone thinks they grow the Best weed and wants top $ for shit. Makes the smoke that’s actually worth getting go way up in price.

Our little town that I live a few miles from has a population of 22,000. I think we are up to 22-24 Dispos right now. You can drive by any of them and there's nobody there. I did hear from the OMMA that 1400ish growers have surrendered thier licenses as of Jan 1st. You're going to see some of the Dispo's close up too. You can't have 22-24 Dispos in a 22,000 population. That's like having 22 McDonalds in a town of 22K, and not even considering that 1/2 of those people don't even like McDonalds.... it's crazy.

The 2- 15 gallon pots that are yellowing a little are getting some Build A Bloom and Craft Blend tomorrow. Found a grow shop about 15 minutes from my house stacked with Build A Soil products. I wanted so much more lol

If looks could kill!.......
Nicely done brother, and good eye in spotting the slight color fade.

I am mixing up a top dress now. I run blumat bluesoak so I have to place my dressing under all the lines. I like to add well aged compost and worm shit to my ammendments and then "cook" them like you would to make a batch of soil.

Did a bit of LST this morning. I'll be flipping her very soon here. Need to clean up the deep middle and let in more light and air.

Strain is Mendocino purp x banana wifi OG
She's from of my breeding efforts. A solid 50/50 hybrid with a 10 week flower. Very heavy yields.

Thank you sir!! Been on this grow like a hawk lmao. Your lookin pretty good there too man. Looking super healthy and I am thinking about a bed instead of pots next time too. Blumats seem like they are a nice legit way to do things for sure. And yeah I have lobster compost, worm casting, and more soil cooking right now for next round and top dress like your saying. Gonna go grab some of the Build A Flower top dress also this next week. Loving the Build A Soil products so far.

I decided I'm not going to scrog as it doesn't help with her. She always falls under the weight of the flowers. Instead, I'm going to hit her with mono silicate I have brewing in an fermented plant extract /ewc AACT.

I have honestly never tried build a soil. Seems legit tho as they're very popular. I've watched several videos and the guy seems to know his shit.

I found a grow shop here that has a lot of their products and so far I’m impressed. I over did the scrog for the 15 gallon pots for sure lol. It’s what caused the deficiencies, just not enough root mass to sustain that amount up top without added nutrients. Other than that it’s been so easy to grow in this stuff. Just microbes and some cal mag for the LEDs and that was it till the Build A Bloom and Craft Blend.

I push my girls pretty hard, I'm always right on the brink of nutrient burn. But with 2" of growth per day, I'd rather have more than not enough.

the two 5 gallon pots I feed with jacks at the moment. Gonna make a switch to the all organic build a soil line up of this turns out legit. I push the ones I feed nutrients too also. Idk quite how to push the organic correcly yet. Still getting in this game lol.

Thank you sir!! I been diggin this organic grow. Leaves more time for tending plant structure rather than plant food. It makes for aome much cleaner grows as I don’t have to water till run off in the organic pots!!! Your looking pretty legit ur self. Been thinking about doing a bed like your when I get my grow shed set up. Nice work man it’s looking nice. Also I seem to hear a lot of good about the blumat setup

Big one on the right is in 1 gallon or smaller maybe pot and only has had FFOF for over a month now with microbes and recharge of course but still no nutes yet. Same with the 3 small ones. Back left and front right get get nutes here and there to keep them happy
