Well, it's been a while that I don't update my diary. First, because weekdays are awful between work and house endeavours. Second, because I struggled with my growth. Ok, several things to comment on here, I noticed that I made so many mistakes since it is my first cultivation. The first big mistake is that when I put the plants in the big pots, I filled the soil with water thinking that it would be a good idea to avoid any air between the roots and the soil, this idea comes from the countryside where I grow tomatoes and trees and bigger stuff, not weed haha. The second fail was to use a low consumption light with an insufficient light spectrum and plants were growing very slow. They are auto-flowering so I expect them to grow for 60-70 days or a maximum of 80 days luckily. I have planted 3 new seeds, grapefruit, lemon haze and amnesia auto. I know I know, not a great idea to mix plants with 30 days of growth and new plants but I was just going to smoke 1-2 joints from them, it's a waste of time and money. If I find that I got no space in my cultibox, I will move one to the balcony and leave it there and see what it can give me haha.
So, now I am going to revegetate? (regrow) the old plants and I have open holes in the pot to let the air flows and dry the substrate and hopefully, this will go full stream.
So the strategy now is to start with good steps with the new plants. good pots, microvita for the soil, I won a contest from a grow shop and they are giving me root fertilizant, bacteria and cool stuff that I would need to understand and learn, and hopefully these new plants will be awesome and provide me incredible buds.
Stay on to keep updated!!
Now, it's going much better. This time I am not making the same mistakes and I am getting awesome results. So far, old plants are also growing a lot because I opened the pot to let the air flow into the soil and oxygen it. I have started using rhizotonic from Canna and growing organic fertilizants that I won from a contest. Let's see.
Good smoke!!
This is getting really awesome. Since I am pouring water less often to the plant and using a good fertilizer, they are getting a good rhythm. Something is clear, the new plants are growing so fast and that' because I am not making the same mistakes as before. Let's see how it goes.
So the plants grew a lot this week. A very lot. They have improved in size and better leaves colour. I cut some little branches and put a cutting on another pot. There is something that I don't understand, the old plant, that have 2 months already and are autoflowering as well, are not flowering. I don't know why they don't grow because it's been 2 months and they are auto. I still a photoperiod of 18-6. I thought they were not going to produce a thing but they grew a lot and now I have some hope on them.
Anyway, they are growing a lot and I am happy with that. I guess than in a week I will force the flowering.
