First attempt with no till beds

MH works for flower. Most people say you lose a little in quantity but get more oil production. I use both in my rooms. Trying to get a full spectrum that way running de HPS and a de solistek 10k MH they call the finisher. I like it for its blue and uv.
 
I received my cover crop seeds and planted them Saturday. They're coming up nicely. I also mixed in some neem and karanja cake into the soil below the first 3" and I haven't seen a fungus gnat since. I have some DE on top of my mother pots. And have been feeding the mothers with a very diluted mix of water and rosemary oil to keep the pests out. I think I'm safe to discontinue that. Mothers look great, clones are a week after cutting and looking like shit, it's been a while lol. They should be rooting soon I hope!!

27 days into flower, everything looks amazing. I have been giving them ewc/alfalfa meal/kelp/ OGBIOWAR foliar and root packs/ insect frass teas, usually foliar sprayed, not with everything in it, but a combo of some when needed, I also gave them a CA-25 foliar spray weekly. Plants are green and happy! I also lucked out and ended up with 3 female Summer Breeze plants from seed. I'm done with any foliar feeding but will continue the teas as needed, with far less nute rich material. I'll attempt to get some photos up, can anyone recommend a good iPhone app for resizing photos? Peace!
 
L.O.O.K.S. Great !! That Mommy Plant shows many shoots coming off ready to slice some killer clones ..:smarty:
 
A few more shots, day 31 flower. The unknown strains are fattening up, the summer breeze is a little behind but I'm hoping they start packing on some weight soon! A few useless bugs here and there, I'm going to give them a few more doses of OGbiowar foliar and root packs to knock the rest out. Other than that it's going to be water only til the end, there's still plenty of good health and life in the bed, and I'm sure they aren't lacking Much they need. Paper towel roll for size comparison.

Brewing some tea for my indoor and outdoor gardens, worm castings, alfalfa, kelp, humic acids, insect frass and molasses, I'll add in some OGbiowar the last 2-4 hours of brew. My plants always react beautifully when given this tea, I'll dilute some and foliar feed with it and soil drench with the rest. I like this 10 gallon brute trash can, its really rugged and easier to carry than a 5 gallon bucket since it has two handles.

Day 35 of flower, things are getting fat. The summer breeze is filling out very nicely, especially considering they're on the edge of the bed and light, starting to take on a pineapple smell. The others are blowing up and smelling different daily. A little fruity and trashy at the same time,maybe some diesel mix. Shits happy, I'm happy. Peace!

Thanks Breeze and Pa, I'm stoked for how well this is going right now! I've never had better looking plants.
 
Quick update, day 40 of flower, under the 400w hps. No complaints.

Thanks everyone! Quick update at day 46 and some outdoor girls I have, these are the mothers to the two unknown strains I have flowering. I have plenty of clones from them to keep a mom going but wanted to flower these gals out. They look great so far, similar soil to my indoor, they're in 20 gallon fabric pots. Indoor bed at day 45

Day 57, just starting to fade in some areas, Summer Breeze plants have fattened up, and continue to grow, they'll go another 2 weeks probably. It's looking like the others will be another week at least. Pretty happy with how it looks in there! I'm also thinking I'll be stepping up to a dimmable 1000watt, or a CMH. The 400watt is working good for me, but I know my yields are low.
