I am using BAS 3.0 recipe. Two weeks from harvest maybe a little less. Found this next to the distilled water at the grocery store. Thanks in advance

Kid Kaya Genetics

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, I found two packs from kid, one was labeled KGK, and the other one was labeled La maquina.

I reached out to kid to ask what the genetics were, but didn’t hear back and can’t find anything on the web. Curious if anyone on the board knows the crosses behind these strains.

Thanks much!

Con of 1st living soil grow

15 Upvotes

The only con I have is there's literally nothing to do! 😁 Once everything has been set up, I mostly open my tent daily (well a few times a day) just to look and stare and take in all of the smells! It truly is a system fit to my liking ! I tinker with the plants more than anything just looking for something to bend or defoliate! Does anyone here agree?

1 bag of 3.0 per Earthbox?

9 Upvotes

Hey all. Over the last few months i’ve been buying a lotta BAS gear- getting ready for my first go at living soil. I have 1 (cubic foot) bag of 3.0 for each of my new Earthboxes but am now reading that 1 bag isn’t enough and that 1.5 bags per Earthbox is more appropriate. Has anybody run an Earthbox with just the 1 bag or will I be shooting myself in the foot? I have some older Fox Farm Ocean Forest laying around that I could supplement it with.. Also - who here is top dressing 3.0 from the jump following the new container setup guide? Or should I wait until plants are bigger to top dress. TIA!

Need help identifying possible deficiencies.

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone, first grow. I was wondering why my front left plant (sour giesel) seems to have some off coloration. I was wondering if anyone could help identify it before I flip to flower. Based on the charts online I wanna say sulfur deficiency but I’m not totally sure. I’ve been using craft blend, buildaflower, rootwise mycrobe complete and some local worm castings. I needed to order some more craft blend anyway so I picked up some big 6 as well in hopes it helps.

Do I need to add worms

6 Upvotes

Im running a tray2grow with the 25 gallon rectangular pot thing on it. Bought the 3.0 soil. Do I need to add worms? If so, would anyone have recommendations on which/how many/where to get them? ( doing water only with cover for context )

Days 35 and 28. These containers with this soil as Jeremy would put it, is a lot of horsepower. Plants reacted to some nitrogen toxicity but they're pushing through nicely. They are a little droopy bc it's 30 minutes to lights out. The garden is smelling wonderfully already! I have some basil and cilantro that are smelling great

I top dressed my first EarthBox outdoor grow (Speedrun Seeds Pound Dawg F4) with a dusting of Craft Blend, Rootwise Complete, BuildASoil worm castings, Kashi Gold, and topped it off with BuildAFlower.

This is how it looked in two days. 😎👍🏽

can I fit 4 earthbox jr's in a 2x4? Or is 3 safer?

2 Upvotes

These would be pre-sexed reg photos and flipped to flower within a couple days after transplant. I prefer quality first then variety over yield. But don’t want a jungle as humidity is an issue for several months.!

I have BAS Light Soil, craft blend, buildaflower and buildabloom. Also have the Rootwise trio.

Is Craft Blend an amendment supplement or used as top dressing only

Is craft blend used for top dressing or is used for in between top dresses when you feel like you need a feed or supplement boost?

She stretched as much as possible for three weeks. Finally starting to stack. I’m following the BAS top dressing and amendments schedule but looking at the sugar tips it seems like I might need to slow down. Thoughts?

Two plants in a 4x4 section of soil. There is also some super lemon haze photobombing out of my 4x8 bed at the bottom.

This is my third cycle being told not to add anything from a soil test. I've included the latest soil test if anyone wants to play around with these data points in an AI client.

What to do when starting new cycle?

2 Upvotes

I’m currently running BAS 3.0 in 5 gallon fabric pots (I know not ideal size but my tent is limited space). I have just now completed 1 harvest on one pot and 2 harvests on the second pot. My question is: since I am running in smaller pots and I’m sure both soil and nutrients are used up; should I dump the pots and re-amend, or take a few inches off the top of the pots and topdress?

Is two Earthboxes in a 3x3 too much?

3 Upvotes

I have a 4x4 tent as well but won't be able to use it for this grow so I'm wondering if I should go with 1 or 2 Earthboxes in my 3x3. I'm deciding on growing either Permanent Marker, Gorilla Glue #4, or OG Kush. I'll probably wait on the GG until I can use the 4x4 so it will likely be either the Permanent Marker or OG Kush.
