All clones were acquired on Friday May 4 and transplanted from cubes into 1 quart containers to start vegging. By Monday morning when first set of photos were taken these girls have been acclimating to my Kind K3 LED lights for about 48 hours. I'll probably lower the lights in a couple days. The Raspberry Glue shows the most signs of distress, with some leaf curling and the SD looks a little dry in parts but they all look better day by day while they acclimatize. ----- All the girls got fed tonite (Monday 5/7) at the start of the light cycle - no standing water in collection plates. I actually use a light cycle of 1900-1300 (7pm to 1pm) because I have solar panels on my roof and have net metered electricity - so from May to October I avoid electricity usage during the peak period - which is exactly 1pm to 7pm (6 hours - how convenient)... so this minimizes electrical cost of using my lights - which are LED to start with so it's really the equivalent of a 320 watt light (according to Kind). This also means my lights provide heat overnight for my tent, which is in an unheated/uncooled small room in my yard. If I actually ran my lights during hot afternoons - I'd have to find a way to cool the whole thing down - right now - I just open the door to vent... so nighttime works here as a light period on multiple levels. ----- At some point in June (today is May 8), probably before the solstice, I plan to move most of these girls outdoors for the remainder of the summer. I think the optimal number of plants to fit inside my tent is 4, although I grew 6 in my crop last winter as my first winter experiment which had a couple smaller plants. I acquired these clones in pairs - so I want to grow one outside and one inside and compare the results. I'm not quite sure how this will affect the diary.... but I suspect it will be necessary to split the diary into two parts - those growing inside and those outside for the flowering phase (any tips welcome). It's not going to be directly comparable for a couple reasons: First - is that all the girls that go outside will get 5 gallon (fabric) pots, and all those inside will get 3 gallon (fabric) pots. This is to limit the overall size of the plants growing in the tent when sativas are involved. I actually own two grow tents because I originally underestimated the vertical space needed to hang a light. Easy mistake for a rookie to make 😳. Of course, that bigger tent needed a bigger light to cover that footprint 😂 - so I'll probably press the 2nd tent into service for a short time to veg plants after I move them from the 1 quart containers they're in today into the 3/5 gallon permanent homes in a few weeks. Second - the girls that go outside are going to flower when mother nature tells them to. The girls inside are going to flower when I flip that light switch back into a 12/12 light cycle - and I'm likely to do that before the outside girls get going seriously (at least that's my guess at present). One of the big differences between inside and outside grows is light quality and consistency. It's NEVER foggy or otherwise cloudy inside (or excessively windy). Outside, you roll your dice.

Grow Questions

dalemacstarted grow question 7 years ago
As a general rule, should I cut off fan leaves that show abnormal growth... for example the RG's curling upwards or wilting. Most of the new growth from all the clones in this diary are growing normally - so are the fan leaves showing damage of various sorts better removed?

Hey there so Defoliation can be a good thing, but I wouldn't recommend cutting them now. Those twisted drooping leaves should hopefully pick up once your watering and nutes get on track. The plants aren't looking really bad so I'd leave those lights until the pop of fully dicoloered and clearly dead.

I'm using a Sun Hut Blackout grow tent which is 3'-3" square and a little over 6 feet tall. Most of these girls will eventually be moved outdoors for the summer (I have some questions about that)- but everyone will veg in the tent for at least another month. Those going outdoors will be moved into 5 gallon containers and the lucky girls remaining in the tent will be moved to 3 gallon containers to make sure they fit in the tent (still deciding on this).

Plants look great! I got mine off to an early start indoors and then gradually climatized them for the outdoors, enjoy the grow!

@sneal, ...ready to get serious starting this weekend when I'll move all that are going outdoors out, and flip the lights to flowering for the remaining indoor girls.

Hey there so with your leaf problem, I didn't think it looked to bad....was it too much wind, nutes, watering practices? I had a variety of leaf problems with my plants and usually they resolved themselves, except when bugs were involved. I think most people stand by removing leaves if they're completely beyond repair, or when they're older if they're blocking the light to other growth nodes.I thought I saw 1 extremely shriveled leaf in pic 6, if so, that leaf might be worth removing, just don't accidentally take any of the new growth with it. :) I hope they'll be growing like wildfire before too long. :)

@Experimentgreen, All the damage shown in the photos was present when the clones were acquired so the source isn't clear - but the new growth looks fine all around so I think I'm on track. I'm generally loathe to cut anything that isn't clearly dead so I'll probably leave everything for now except those shriveling SD things. In fact that whole branch at the bottom will eventually come off when she gets older and repotted so maybe it's all for the best to cut it now now since she was just topped yesterday. The girls will be repotted into their final homes middle of next week.

I was going to do 5 gallon smart pots but the store i went too made some good arguments regarding larger pot size such as less days of watering. Im not so sure now.. the 20 gallon pots are huge!!

dalemaccommented7 years ago
@Jamminbear, I want to try something larger than 5 gallons to experiment, but I still want to be able to pick the girl up and move her around - so I might try a couple 7 gallon pots for fun.

I m planning on doing the same and bring out the females around the June Soltice. I might go big and do a 20 gallon pot. hahehhe

dalemaccommented7 years ago
@Jamminbear, hehe... I've never tried anything larger than a 5 gallon container. The upside is that it's easy to lift a 5 gal container to see how thirsty the plant is, which is something I've gotten used to (I've got fabric pots with handles this year so I'm eager to test them out). I was going to try and use one of those half oak barrel planters we have a couple of in the yard but my wife nixed that idea with much less interesting plants. Wouldn't be able to lift it anyway. Also allows me to control how much nutrients I give each plant too. These fabric pots are alleged to require more moisture. We shall see.

Following. What’s your room size please? That’s a stat that should be included in the template, don’t you agree?
dalemac
dalemaccommented7 years ago
@growdoctordc, I agree that stat should probably be included - at least for indoor grows. I actually wrote the response below before I figured out it wasn't a "reply". Cannabis might have something to do with that.... Newbie for growdiaries... been around the block for a few crops.

@dalemac wrote “Weather has been steady with morning fog followed by sunny low 80s daytime and high 50s night.” That’s perfect growing weather! I mean artisanal top shelf outdoor! Sorry to hear about the one casualty, but you are correct about making up for her with your outdoor harvest.

This is what I could come up with for genetic information for Raspberry Glue which is supposedly a high CBD strain... Lineage: Gorilla Glue #4 x Pink Champagne Flavors: sweet, raspberry, floral, earthy. Effects: relaxed body high, happy, euphoric head high. Known to Alleviate: pain, anxiety, depression. BayCure (oakzendelivery.com) lists this as a 50/50 CBD strain with 7.2% THC and CBD.
