I had an issue where I was unable to add in a weekly update, so posting this one a little late. All was going well until one morning when I got up and did my routine check only to find all but one plant pretty severely wilted. I had put on the exhaust fan the day before and we had a string of very hot days. The temp in tent was fine, humidity was pretty low. It was obvious that these girls were extremely thirsty...I think the dry heat and exhaust fan dried them out too fast. I watered and shut off exhaust fan. Within a few hours they bounced back, but I am very concerned about long term influence from this event.
I gave another bloom based compost tea yesterday, plants are still doing alright. I spent the day relocating both my set ups to a room on the shady side of my homestead. Hopefully this helps, cant hurt...but what a pain to move everything.
I'll be top dressing at the end of this week and that will be the last or second to last supplement for this run.
Fingers crossed I caught the wilting early enough...final harvest will let me know.
Thanks.
They are getting there, I love the organic style of growing, but getting a new style dialed in has its challenges…each one better than the last I suppose. Thanks!!
I guess anything is possible, but from what I have seen it doesn’t seem to bother the plant at all. Some of the zkittlez plants I did previously had corkscrew leaves on new growth, they eventually straightened out. I’m hoping the same happens here, but if not, I’m not concerned. In general one bad leaf shouldn’t make or break this run. I hope. Thanks!!
Interesting re: the seeds. I have been reading on germinating wheat or barley seeds and killing them off as soon as they sprout by blitzing them in a blender. The solution apparently is rich in enzymatic activity and glucoses that ameliorate soil. Though I doubt that was the idea from your soil supplier.
Yeah man, this was a first for sure. Interesting thought you have, anything is plausible. The only other explanation I could come to was that a mouse got in there and started storing bird seed. Meh, whatever the cause, didn’t seem to cause an issue. It was a risk, but I had seeds ready to go and didn’t want to waste them.
Looking good and progressing very nicely !! Good luck with the grow !
