I use molasses in my organic super soil grows to keep microbes jumping and happy, I just put it in with the guano tea and use that 3-4x a grow.

Labs, em1, molasses and some organic phos, guano tea goes in today for 4 days . This is permanently on the bubble and I water every other day with all the goodness.

On another note, I stupidly thought I'd be friendly on Instagram with a local grower struggling with worms so I suggested BT in the form of a product called Delfin and that removes all worm issues.
So he says with all due respect I should learn more.....
And then suggests BT but from another company, literally the same product.
I was shocked, just told him he was rude and to not always be so full of shit, politics in cannabis is pathetic. It's like I insulted his family by offering help to remove worms, gone are the days of people being cool with each other, it's all competition now.
So stupid. I'm not competing with anyone, I'm happy to just grow.

Activate all the bacteria and nutrients properly by making aerated teas, otherwise guano is slow release in 2 weeks.

I have a question about whether something would work...
If cannabis was kept short and grown in small conditions, would it still eventually form flowers?
I don't have the space to grow full plants, but I could grow in a small glass jar terrarium.
Were I to grow a male and female cannabis plant in there, but if they were only able to get to about a foot tall (give or take), could they form seed-bearing flowers, and would they?
The idea is not to get any useable marijuana, but to see if I can replicate the seeds cheaply.
I looked on youtube and found two instances of marijuana plants grown in a terrarium. One failed, but one succeeded in having healthy plants - they formed some flowers, but very small ones. They were however unfertilized. I wonder if they could replicate the seeds?
If you want to question the workability of the project, I'd be welcome to that. I haven't decided if I'll do it. I have learned a lot about water conditions in terrariums however, and I think I could keep small cannabis plants alive.
But the main question is whether the cannabis would adapt to the cramped conditions by forming flowers that it can accomadate in its small size - do really small cannabis plants still 'fruit'?

Yes, it's all down to pot size and when you flip to flower by changing the light hours

I would never grow in a terrarium. Search for micro cabs (miniature growing cabinets) that people have built. There's a lot of people out there growing successfully in small spaces, but not terrariums.

Ok so we are at 3wks since flip to 12/12 I turned on the side lighting. They are only 18watts each. So it's low and might not help much.
Is it okay that it's a couple inches from the plants?. Seems pretty close but they are low watt leds. I removed the plastic covers so the diodes are exposed. It's about time to take my clones and put them into 5in peat pots.

Fried you say? Too much nutes? Or almost the end of harvest?

I'm using grow dots and recharge by realgrowers Grow dots are programed released nutrients. Use once and that's it. They seem to work really well. It's my 1st time using them.

Got lazy after a recent harvest but finally back in the groove. Just popped some blueberry bang bang from exotic genetix and honeycomb pave from compound genetics.
