So I'm starting this diary I currently have some stardawg autos which is going at a very slow rate so I've decided to see how they go but start a fresh with my lemon ak now I have my tent set up at the optimal humidity and temp..
DAY 1. from seed sprouting I am going to place in the pot feed my terra soil with root it formula to help establish the root system incubate my seed with a cut in half bottle over until my seedling emerges I wont water again until nesasery. (water is tap water left to declorinate and ph adjusted to 6.5)
Any tips or advise welcome as I am a complete beginner thanks for looking at my diary and please be kind🍀🙂
Quick little sprout fed when planted in the pot will not feed until needed maybe 2 days humidity is up as this is where I went wrong with my others.. will add photos as the week progresses so far so good 😊
So I've been abit lazy this week as I have covid but.... I now know where I've been going wrong... with my lighting so our really hot sunny days I'm giving my girls some time on the windowsill until I'm able to order my light in a few days time to hopefully get them all to flourish I am just feeding them as and when they need it usually once a week with feed ie my root it and then maybe just plain ph water if they need any extra really hoping that i see an improvement with a new light and hopefully one day this little baby will be a nice big and juicy lady for her moma 😍🍀
So this week I have treated my girls to the sf1000 and wow the results are amazing I can see so much improvement and fast growth.. saying this should I lower my lights or the dial I currently have it set to 80 I cant seem to find much information on the dial of the sf1000 so any tips would be great other than that I think this week is a good week in my plants growth I've also fed them just once this week just pure and simple 6.0 ph water 😊
So this week has been fairly easy I've pretty much just sat back and watch them grow they havnt been watered this week yet I usually do them 1x a week but they dont seem to want a drink just yet so i will give them a few more days and in think I am going to introduce some nutrients prob a 8th of the reccomend dose I'm using canna Vega so hopefully she takes quite well to the feed and I see her flourish more over the next week..
Overall I'm happy with growth and finally feel like I may not be as bad as this as I originally thought 😜🍀
So this week I gave my girl her 1st feed and she seems to have not even noticed i was really cautious with feeding and i am just pretty much just going by my instinct with them so she is now ready another feed which i will only slightly adjust with a little more.. I do feel tho this week she will need feeding maybe x2 instead of just the x1 per week I have been doing.. she has developed her lady hairs aswell this week so I think it's safe to say she is doing well.. I did have 1 hiccup and that was trying to LST which I quickly freaked out about and just let her grow normal I think I just got overwhelmed with lots and too much info and then just got high over thought things and changed my mind 😂 busy week for my little lady lemon 🍋😋
So this week is her last full veg feed the next feed I have decided to start with half veg half bloom as I think by next week she will be in flower she had doubled again in size and she has coped really well with my attempts at LST and a light defoliation overall i am really happy with her this week 🍀😊
Ok so I am a week behind because of personal reasons...
So last week was fine..
This week I have noticed yellowing leaves which I am not sure if it is
1. Root bound
2. Just because they have been tucked under and are not getting any light and possibly from being on the soil when I've fed them.
3. Now somebody said I should not feed bloom when I had already infact given some bloom as well as veg.
I've also been advised to just give bloom now and lower my light?
Now my lemon ak to me looks fine she has grown and bud sites are there forming nicely or not? I'm unsure.
She has had the odd day looking droopy but that was when she needed watering and after a feed she perked up lovely
The photos are here right now as I've not had time for the photos etc this week.
Literally any help on anything what I am doing wrong where I can improve I'm literally brand new at this and this is the 1st time I've had flowering plants
Thanks guys for reading
So just a mid week diary for my girl as I missed a week and she wasnt doing to great a few days ago she seems to have perked up now I have gave her another little light defoliation and she will be having another feed today I'm just going to feed her every few days as I think I have been to cautious about over watering and if she is becoming rootbound she will need a more regular feed.
Hi i could not find more information about yyour light// the lightdistance
, if she continues to grow very leggy withalong stem get the light closer and watch her-----
atm.. just dig some soil aroundd the stem to hold her and give her some airmocve / ventilation) to strengthen the stem... iam shaking my seedlingss daily, and let always let abreeze on them so that they are moving slightlly.....
hi i wwould start on 70 cm , and just let the lights where they are, and let the plants grow towards......
if your tent is not high enough dimm the light back if you are closer you can calculate wwith an X
that means
70 cm on 100 percent
50 cm on X Percent
drying quicker than other plants is another sign of root bound. I don't know if transplanting at this stage could cause problems but seems likely. just cut off Nitrogen completely, focus on bloom nutes and keep the light close to your plant.this might help.
