My first grow ever. Seems a bit slow for 3 weeks. The grow area is very small, about 26x49cm
Weird thing going on with two of the leaves, looks like they merged. Is this normal?
Please let me know what you guys think. I would appreciate the input. 😀
LST is working I think. The lower branches are growing a bit taller and the canopy is starting to level out. It's not pictured, but I cracked the main stem in half. Let's hope she doesn't get too traumatized.
My plant seems very small for this stage (~18cm). I managed to get more growth from LST even after cracking the main stem a bit at the junction. Is she severely stunted from this? How do I get her to grow more?
If I were you I’d stop all training and make sure that you have a constant feeding schedule wet/dry.. some plants just grow slow but if you have cracked the main stem it is probably healing from that still and that’s why the growth is stunted oh and another factor is the temperature of you can try to lower the temp to like 78-80 during the day try not getting too hot and then at night try to keep it in the 70s like 73-75 just so you don’t cause any more stress on her!
First grow...I'm starting to see a lot of yellowing on the lower fan leaves with some streaks of brown too. It looks kinda worse off than the week before!
Is this old age or some kind of deficiency?
It's maturing, so it's sucking up nutrients (mobile elements, particularly phosphorus at that stage) from those leaves.
Sometimes it's an indicator of the plant needing more of those particular nutrients, or that there's a bit of imbalance (like n itrogen excess) causing uptake issues.
In your case, I think it's a ruderalis and I don't like them.
I've definitely stopped training her and just let her grow after the trauma.
I don't water her unless she's dry, I do the finger test almost every day. When I took these pictures she was bone-dry, I gave her a watering with calmag.
Since she's not doing too well and the trichomes kinda do need more time, should I give her one more feeding with both Bio Bloom and Bio Grow? (I know that she needs bloom nutes obviously but Bio Grow has more Phosphorus)
@TheUK420Show 's answer in your previous question, he is right, don't stress or do anything to auto's. Maybe exception for xxl autos. I see now both guys said it...
What you have now is a magnesium deficiency, this is caused overwaterting (since you added extra calmag). if problem stays, the ground could be too wet or watering PH could be off. You are also at the end of your growcycle (maybe two more weeks for mango?),
If you suspect the buds and trichomes need more than two weeks, I would help it out with some calmag and some extra phosporus. But check soil first, you also have drooping leaves and some signs of nitrogen defiency so I suspect they soil is waterlogged. If soil is wet (shouldnt be wet all the time, top should dry out). let it dry, careully give leaves some calmag solution. Dont wet the buds.
The buds turned out fatter than I expected! Hopefully, this will make up for the short stature of this girl...
Let me know when you guys think I should flush/harvest.
She ended up being a pretty plant. This was a big surprise. I hope the yield for my first legit grow is decent.
Gonna harvest tomorrow just to stretch it out a tiny bit.
