Hello Diary.
The first week of flowering is over, the plants have grown over 50 cm, the branches have spread and now they have already started to crumple.
Specifically, the Watermelon Auto has grown to 50 cm, while its roommates, Purple Punch, have grown to 60 cm. Purple Punch # 2 that sprouted a few days later has now outgrown Watermelon by a few inches.
Along with the height, and in width it has expanded greatly and has rather dense branches. On the lower leaves I noticed the appearance of yellow-brown spots, I probably overdosed with fertilizers, I will see how they will behave further.
The flowers started to form, so I have new motives to photograph. I water every two to three days, when each plant gets about 2 liters of water.
I add food at about every other watering. Sometimes biobizz and sometimes I put Easy Grow or Easy Bloom tablet, depending on the stage the plant is in.
p.H. I always adjust the water value to a value between 6.2 and 6.5.
Conditions on the Farm are more or less satisfactory, the temperature is about 25 degrees while the humidity is slightly lower than satisfactory, varying between 40% and 50%.
At the beginning of the week, I also changed the light regime to 20 hours of the day and 4 hours of the night.
Here’s a brief overview of the past week.
18/02/2021 - Day 23.
Watering. I adjusted the water to 6.3 p.H with Plagron’s Lemon Kick and added 1.5 mL / lit CalMg preventively.
Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25 degrees and 41% humidity.

That’s it for this week, a big hello and thank you to everyone who follows the diary and thanks for the comments. See you soon.
I had brown yellow spots too and the leaves slowly died. I had a lack of potassium because of a ph lock out. Check your runoff ph. I flushed with 2 L of water untill it was right and added worm casting on the top layer. Also 2 weeks whitout nutrients untill it was stabilized. Hope this helps. 🙂
