Perpetual Grow Row #2

Sprouted very quickly. Was hoping for more root development but they got too leggy in the starter container. I transplanted and removed the humidity domes. Harvested the last row that is in there. There are two more finishing up in my 2x3.

Growing well no complaints :)

Wow! Look at that explosive growth this past week! That's insane. Girls must be loving their home. I applied a foliar feed humic and fulvic acid with a tablespoon of unsulphured molasses. I also topped them all. Since I am growing so many plants in a 4x4 I want to start a regiment of preventatives for mildew and mold. Read a couple studies that showed fulvic acid foliar sprays help build resistance to and prevent both in cucumbers and tomatoes so I thought why not weed? Turns out it's great for practically every part of growing from the microbes to being a substitute for sun on overcast days! I figure I have a 1lb of fulvic/humic acid powder and it's 1 teaspoon per gal. That's going to last me FOREVER. I don't have enough ties right now to lst the ladies so I'm gonna find something else to use. In the mean time it will have to wait a week or so.

Started LST, broke a branch used a tie down as a splint. Did another foliar feed of humic / fulvic acid and unsulphured molasses. They seem to love it so I guess I'll keep it as apart of the routine. Mist the soil as well. They are probably entering pre flower. I'll call it veg this week though.

Girls needed some attention for sure and some LST. Last time I tied em down I snapped a branch and work picked up. I'm in trial in a week or two so I have been doing a lot of prep lately. I have been giving them weekly foliar feed of humic/fulvic acid with unsulphured molasses. You can definitely tell that they've appreciated it. They are a lush green and have really bloomed. I'm very happy with the results. This week will be the last foliar feed for them as they are def pre flower right now if not first week (looking at you cookies!) I plan on adding a 1/4 cup of flower girl and 2-3 teaspoons langbeinite to the soil. I've been periodically top dressing with amended soil because the soil became hydrophobic at one point. I have 15 gal of homemade compost waiting to be used. It's curing and should be done by Tuesday after the heat wave (109 on Monday!....in the PNW!!! Climate change is real folks) I moved them to the center since the other row was doing so well on the side. I figure why fix what's not broken. I'm starting the next row today as well gotta prep that diary too......follow me to Perpetual Grow #3 (counting new rows). 😆

Adjusted for LST open up a couple bud sites. Nothing really to comment. Girls are doing great. Okay update I was gazing at my plants and saw a little red mite run across a leaf. Well. It was a spider mite. I only saw one or two but I took quick and decisive action. I cleaned the space removed the middle row from the space and sprayed em down with spinosad. The spray should be enough and I will reapply in 5 days. The plants are moving deeper into flower so I have to be careful how long I use it for. I think these buds are gonna have a wash before drying. I did a pretty decent inspection and haven't seen any symptoms on the other plants. I only found one affected leaf and haven't seen any eggs or other mites. I put down some DE as well to kill ones on the soil. I will probably add spinosad as a preventative during veg until I can find a more smoke friendly approach. I just ordered some neem oil online I will probably use the neem oil on the plant until I notice symptoms. I think between neem oil my fan and spinosad I shouldn't have any issues. Oh I also got some mosquito bits for my soil to help prevent fungus gnats. That and some fly tape. 2nd update checked again a day later and haven't seen anything that would resemble spider mite DMG or eggs etc. All other plants look healthy as well. I will repeat the spinosad treatment regardless.

Check out my OG perpetual grow for details on the fungus gnats issue. Hopefully it's been resolved. Girls got a good drink today. Trying to figure out how to heat and cool the tent during the season. I love and hate my garage grow sometimes. Temps fluctuate like crazy. Girls are still alive and that's just what I need to focus on right now. I guess somethings I can't control. Colorado cookies is stinking up the joint. Her boquet is straight fruit. Fantastic 👌.

Ugh 😫 two ladies started showing deficiency! Do si dos and Bruce Banner (dos si dos suffering the worst). It appears to be either nitrogen or phosphorus. Given it's flower I'm guessing the latter. I top dress with 3-9-4 as normal and made a tea with it today for quicker access. I hope this doesn't hurt my quality although I'm sure it will.

All the plants are bouncing back. I found a schedule for Dr earth to help prevent the mid P/K deficiency I have been experiencing mid flower with the past two cycles. That should fix it.

Supplementing with epsom salt and langbeinite. Tablespoon or two of unsulphured molasses every week mixed with their ph'd water. Coming along nicely. Removed alot of the fan leaves and continued on. Adjusted some restraints too.

Getting SO CLOSE. Keep checking the trichromes everyday.
