Botany Fluff's Jiggler grow

[Flufferus]

Started in November, planted alot but ended up with 3 plants. Vegged them until I was able to start weaving them through the scrog net. Just flipped them to 12/12 for flower.

I vegged them with a 400 watt led, and will switch to a bigger light for flower. Running them DTW style hydroponic feed water. Running 1.8 ec roughly. Temps are high 70s, humidity is around 70.

I make a nutrient solution with jack's 20-10-20, gypsum, epsom salt, 2 different microbial innoculants, and kelp + humic + fluvic acid PH'd to 6. I also foliar feed a magnesium and canopy booster every 2 days.

Installed the 1000w light today. Kicking it into high gear

Looking good. What strain? Indica dominant?

Indica dominant, the strain is called Jigglers but i just call it jiggler. gelato x red pop 70% indica/30% sativa. pretty strong strain can get good phenos that are around 32% thc and possibly above in rare cases.

Never heard of Jigglers before but Gelato is nice. 70/30 Indica Dominant is right where I like it. Best of luck with your grow. Keep us in the loop as it progresses.

Got everything dialed in and running 1000W, 62,000-65,000luxx. 60 humidity, 80-84f 1.6 EC

Turned light back down to 800w, I was unable to keep humidity high enough. Just lowered the light a bit so it's still all under 65,000 lux

Everything's going well.

trying something new, putting about a tablespoon of high quality gelatin in the irrigation feed diluted in a cup of water and bloomed/thoroughly mixed in the microwave, for the amino acids. We will see if it does anything lol. Maybe the gelatin will feed microbes too. Hopefully the jug doesn't reek tomorrow since I only use half the jug during watering. Also been crushing up 4 amino acid supplements to add to the water.

Have you ever used Molasses in water during the flower stage? 1 Tablespoon per gallon every 3rd to 4th watering seems to increase beneficial microbes in the soil that allow the plant to use more sugar, which increases flower size and trichome production. I think one of the grow bibles mentions this but many growers have never heard of it. Worked for me.

yes! This is the first grow trying to use molasses. I also add alot of different beneficial microbes. bacteria and fungal mycorrhizae to help it along

kinda working while on a budget and using what I have, I decided to try and make my gypsum more useful by mixing it with vinegar, hopefully producing some calcium acetate for some extra bio-avalability

Thanks for the pictures @Flufferus. Cannabis plants are some of the most aesthetically pleasing plants ever

Fantastic! Flowers starting to look good.

Do you talk to or send intentions to your plants? You can. You should. Thanking them as they grow for the benefits they will give you in the future is recognition of their importance. When you breathe out co2 you are making fresh "air" for the plants to breath in, and they in return breathe out oxygen for us. It is a very symbiotic relationship. Personally I believe that the plants sense what we need from them and in turn custom make their medicine for our benefit. What a great relationship. That is why I always want the plants to know that I am appreciative of the relationship and the medicine that they are providing to me.
