First week had gone well no issues with the gorrila or the autos
Gorrila skittlz #1 has a nice growth pattern
Gorrila skittlz #3 not very symmetrical but has faster root growth.
3 days after, I added a psychosis plant. She has not grown much and I haven't touched her since the transplant. Also the only plant to show some yellow on it its bottom leaves.. She is growing and her roots are doing well otherwise.
Plants are doing well. the Psychosis is catching up
I've taking a video of my room too show the inside a bit better.
Noticing some issues with my room set up. The 2" air stones are making too much noise at random points of the day/week. I assume the stones move slightly and cause a rattle noise when the stone is at a certain angle
*** ill update this week more today after I have been to the hydroponic shop to pick up a few things
Having some issues with the 2"airstones. Due to screeching and rattling. The let the perfect amount of air out for my 19l pots but the noise isn't worth it.
Here is and 18" air curtain. Super silent and works great. I bought 30" curtains too.. They let even more air out and form around the pot better 👍
Start of the thrid week today. I was behind on my dairy the first two weeks so there may some date differences in weeks 1+2
Gorrila zkittlez - doing great so far getting nice and bushy. Doing LST on the three off the every 3rd day and that's about it.
Psychosis - she has still been growing and new stems appear evey few days. Two of the leaves had yellowing in them for 2 week so I've put in down to the lack of cal/mag in the system.
Today I was going to replace the nutrient water but instead I decided to leave it and and cal/mag to the res.
The reason for not changing water is down to the volume I am using. I have a 225L tank, 6 20L pots with a 20L brain unit. So I'm roughly using 300/310L if I'm at full capacity (365-15%) due to me obv not using the full capacity of the red or bucket for many reasons.
I only need 50/100 litres at this stage per week so instead of changing it every 7/10 days. I have filled the system with more than enough supply as to not need to change it so frequently.
Ps. The nuits/ec/ph have been holding steady for weeks now hence another reason for keep the water res from week 1
I will be changing the nuit strength and water at some point soon of course... Maybe give it another 7 day depending on how the plants are doing 🤙👍
Thought I'd show you guys some root growth. The 3 plants in the video are all gorrila zkittlz.... Non of which look the same or are growing the same way lol. No complaints its just interesting too see such difference characteristics from the same strain.
GS#3 The tallest isn't as busy but has huge root growth and strong branches (thinest leaves darkest green)
GS#1 The smallest the probability the most symmetrical but shortest in root growth (widest leaves and lightest green leaves)
GS#2 The Mid size plant is basically a mix of both all round
Massive root growth this week!
I Started week 5 on Saturday past, I've let some of the branches that were held Down for a while free, I manipulated some other branches to work on the symmetry as well as some selective de faning on all the gorrila zkittlz. As the three all look like different phinos I've treated them separately to suit the growth of each plant.
The Psychosis was the skiniest and smallest from week 1-4.. Now its the tallest. I had to pin her down harder with the lst this week and she reacted really well growth wise. 3 days later lots of fresh branches shot up so I decided to take clones for a new diary I will be starting next week 😎
From the floor to the top bud site these girls are sitting at 4ft (18days into flower)
I took just ander 30 cuttings from this grow 2 weeks ago (half gorrila and half psyk) and kept only 6 psychosis clones for a new diary starting soon 😉😎
The remaining clones went to New homes.
The psychosis looks like it's stopped growing right at it limit for the space that it is in... hopefully it doesn't grow anymore than 4 inches from now.
All plants are doing great tbh and the space is getting limited for maintenance now but after week five I won't need be inside the room until around harvest time !!
Flush week. Currently in day 5 of flush.
I started the flush with 250ml of canna flush in 125 res for fresh water. After three days I topped the res up to 200 L diluting the flush mix down mid flush.
Today I will be emptying out the canna flush mix and replacing it with fresh pH water for the rest of It's final week (4 days
Till chop)
48hrs of darkness to be added on Friday
It was fun doing my first diary on this. Moving forward I will try to add more content in the diary's to come ... NEXT UP HARVEST TIME
