hey guys.. I'm here to document my struggle with these seeds. Maybe I should have read reviews, maybe it's my fault.. I'm not sure exactly. This is my first run ever so any tips are appreciated. I will be basing the weeks off my newest germ. In this 5 pack of sweet tooth autos I had 3/5 germ via glass of water for a day -> paper towel until tail.
My newest is germ today so more details on how that goes later. I am hoping for no issues with this one. For my other 2 I believe I put them through a bad cycle of underwatering into overwatering.. One of them has mutations? I guess? I have a set of 4 point leaves and one leaf the middle blade super twisted. My other one is actually growing fairly well.. it's just that all my new growth is coming in very rusty looking. My eyes aren't too great with shades of green so I'm not sure what that color is mixed in there(pics).
Again, I am new.. any tips very much welcome.
I have 2 others in my tent growing fine. One is a bagseed(other diary) the other an amnesia auto.
Happy frog soil (guy at the garden shop said he had no issues with his in here)
75-80degs night and day
30-40 humid
only using big bloom even though maybe I dont need that but figured it didnt hurt.
Calcium deficiency is my guess it doesn't look like nitrogen but could possibly be part of the problem.
Have you added ferts?
Anything special in the dirt?
So, I may have killed my sprout trying to rip off the seed. It broke soil and did nothing for another couple days so figured that was a good idea, guess maybe not this time well see.
On my struggle plant, I ended up having to cut 4 fan leaves since I accidently let them press against the soil after I watered and trained. They were dead the next day. I wish I didn't make more issues for myself on this one because obviously now it starts putting out normal fan leaves.
My plant with the stains, I added some cal mag to just to see if it had an effect since it seems to be to go to for every problem that isn't obvious. It actually now seems to be putting out normal leaves as well. Was it the cal-mag? who knows.
I dont like my LST attempt on all my plants in my tent this run but Ill have to work with it for now. I am scared to bend the main stems again to make it more even because they seemed to stiffen up a bit after my first big pull. I took everything off my struggle plant. If it gives me anything at all ill be happy with it. My stain plant is super bushy and have to tuck/pull every day while the branches seem to be growing way slower than the main stem. I dont think ill be able to reach an even canopy on any of my plants but ill do the best I can for the best results.
Also fungus gnats are still chillin. Think im keeping it somewhat under control but really want it to be over. Maybe try dia earth this week?
Sprout died when I tried to get shell off so changing the weeks to follow these around month olds. My bushy one is growing decently well even with the weird leaves, think those are getting better. Trying to get as many heads as possible now. Hated my lst on this one so only have main stem pinned down a bit now and tucking whenever I check the tent.
The one I messed up is starting to grow well now too. As long as I get something ill be happy. Hopefully kicking out my bigger potted plant later this week if the weather is ok. Then ill have a bit more room for my 2 bigger autos.
Still have gnats, try to let plants start drooping a tiny bit for a day to dry them out but always seems like one pot can't wait any longer and feel like ill just be in a never ending cycle until chop.
started flower phase at the start of the week. stretched a bit and probably still stretching I assume for another week or so.
the one I thought I killed bounced back very well this week. very happy with how much more healthy looking it has become.
tent is getting very crowded and need to get something else to kill the small amount of gnats I still have flying around.
prob change to a bloom sched on the nutes next feed.
kicked the weaker one outside since I have an amnesia haze auto in my tent that will not stop stretching, keeping the flowering one in the tent to finish.
getting some spots on my weaker one that im not too sure of, not sure if I burned it again or didnt feed enough..
the better one is well into flower and seemed to stop stretch and focus on buds pretty quickly.. hopefully they come out thick because its not tall :(
watering every day now, seems like the gnats have laid off a bit probably since they are sucking the water up quick.
my shorty sweet tooth doing well.. seems to never have any issues at all. The one I kicked out of my tent to outdoor...idk. It was happy for a while now its always drooping wet or dry. Might try a hydro peroxide rinse next water and see if theres any results not sure whats happening.
My amnesia is dominating my tent, never knew how big weed plants got so started with 4 in there :) Now I dont even have good room for 2 in flower.. I let them outside a few hours a day to get better light since its been raging sunny almost every day the past 2 weeks.
burnt the short plant a little, other than that things going well I think.
outdoor plant has some pretty small buds, might try and up nutes one last time.
Happy growing, If you still have gnats try using neem oil it worked for me. I flushed my plants with it about 5 litres of pH adjusted water per plant and let it drain. I then used it as a foliar spray along with yellow sticky traps and that seemed to do the trick.
Good luck I hope the rest of your grow goes smoothly.👍
@Tay001, hey thanks for a reply on that. Did you spray the plants with the neem or add it to your water? I used the one from Home Depot and dunno if that’s no good or what. Was thinking of flushing them after drying as well. I also got sticky traps but all the had at the store was the ribbons which I hate because they move a round. Prob Amazon some of those yellow ones
