hehe thanks man. Nah, I have only 3gal pot coated with microkote. When MrEDuck suggested to use that I went into some tools store and they were selling this green fence 2' height, so I bought 2'x3' then cut it in half and applied on those pots. But you know, if the plant is stretchy and lanky like zamal, training goes incredibly well, if that would be SLH, I could not do a thing with it... Depends on a strain you're growing :) I used it not because of the coating but only because it had proper grid pattern, not too big or not too small...

Those fences are made for training vegetables to so it shouldn't be surprising they work really well for their intended purpose. They're usually coated so they can stand up to the elements longer. Not really a concern indoors but it's a major one outside.
Nice training. Destroyer is looking nice. She really filled that space. And Zamal is finally looking to be making flowers. So like 10 more weeks?

Yeah man, thanks, destroyer is really looking nice.. difficult to make normal picture, because of auto exposure if I make it too bright, then you cannot see how the tops look like, I'f I decrease the light, you cannot check of whats going inside the plant.. But oh my, it filled the space so beautifully and stigmas exploded through every node haha. Zamal finally started making flowers, but 10 more weeks? ouch.. hopefully 8.. but oh well.. with zamal it feels like I should make 11/13 or 11.5/12.5 instead of 12/12, cause it's not triggering the flowering properly.. Or maybe I just need to be more patient :))

Cool cool. I have so much 2''x4'' galvanized fencing left over from a project.

Thanks for the great idea. My next grow is going to be interesting.

Somebody's been busy. Looking awesome man. You and Kite already added C99 to my wishlist, let's see what else you can add. Hopefully there's enough time left in your sativas for me to catch up.

yeah man, although destroyer looks like she's going to be ready in less than 6 weeks.. i see resin production on buds and leaves already.. and man, c99 is real good, definitely go for it. it takes only 49-52 days from flip, for such a sativa high 49 days? cmon haha.. i personally will take it partially at day 46 for my wife and other sissy smokers who find day 52 too strong lol.

guys, i have a question, ihave to fly away for 6 days, so i was trying to make it simple for the person who will take care of my plants so i prepared nutes with potasium silicate and calmag additive and seaweed and this morning i found something floating in the water, wool looking mass.. so i was wondering what could have happened in there, was it silica that reacted with e.g. calmag? if yes if i will water it, will the plant still be getting those reacted nutes?
thanks

Destroyer may be rady in 8-9 weeks
Hey Kite, how are you man? how's your Cindy harvest?

thanks for comment, probably I was comparing to those fast lowering strains lol.. so in total from seed it's even longer than 14 weeks then? not that I mind that, I really like the idea that I will have destroyer colas filled with budsites :) plants are looking amazing, non of the leaves dropped except for those 2 on the first node and 1 on the 2nd node, the rest are beautifully green. I probably would still be feeding bloom food if not for you :)

Kite high, awesome plants! What light did you run? And youre not supposed to mix nutes or theyll form weird insolubles (or so biobizz says)

Those are just 2 of the tops out of 16 from one of the four plants. Thank you. I run 2 400 watt cmh on movers overhead and 400 watt cmh/mh/hps vertical in a cool tube with 8 T5 ho 54 watt 2 tubes per corner in a 5x5x9 height room.

Fertilizers should mix with any other. IMO either it is a ploy to get you to use their product exclusively or they are using sources that will react due to inferior chemical composition. Best to always dilute in solution the mix and observe for precip when not sure.

very nice Kite, happy for you, but i can't say i did not see it comming hehe, do you rotate plants to get uvb evenly on buds?

what i did i added silica to water and let it be overnight, next day i added camg and seaweed and 2nd morning it was like wool in the water floating on top, when i shook it, it went down.
maybe those amino acids in aptus camg-boost reacted to potasium silicate...

lol missed the plain so instead of 5 hours travel i landed 430 miles away from destination and had to take a bus, lol ended up in 22 hours on the road hehe

Looking really good so far! Love the trunk shots, bet they have rebar-like stems down there.
As far as 100% sativas indoors go, I guess 12/12 from seed is the way to do it.. too long otherwise, plus they grow huge without veg anyway.
