Starting week 7.
Day 43 - I watered with 20 Oz of Cyco water & feed in the AM. At PM I gave 6 plants that are yellowing 10 Oz of water with Calmag. Maybe that will clear up the yellowing. It seemed to improve when I fed it the Cyco Bloom but then began yellowing again. Will see if the CalMag helps as someone else suggested.
Day 44 - So today after the CalMag feeding they LOOK a lot better! Also, my feed formula wasn’t correct for week 6. Realized they can take a higher EC than what I was giving. Today I reformulated and watered with 20-30 Oz water/feed mix as described on this week in the AM. They are looking so much better! Whew! My new EC target is 2.1.
Day 44 PM - gave them all 10 Oz water/feed with CalMag
Otherwise they are still flowering. I’d say last week was Preflower for 7 of them and 5 in this grow not flowering as of day 43.
Day 45 gave them all 30 Oz water - 2 were slightly droopy
Day 46 gave them all 20 Oz water - one was slightly droopy gave it 30 oz
Day 47 Dave them all 20 Oz and 40 oz to droopy one
Day 48 1 was slightly droopy. And 2 were a little droopy gave them all 40 oz water
Day 49 Whew! A much better week for sure!!
Hoping week 7 is uneventful. I’m sticking with hand watering this week. So far they are just getting thirstier but I see the drooping and water them. Each day basically adding 10 more oz each feeding to see response so I don’t overwater again.
@hotmamma, okay do not water no matter what your instinct tells you too , the water in the pots will need some air circulation to help remove the water that now will start to suffocate your plants . Are you plastic or fabric pots
Your plants could do with some space if aviable between them to create some airflow it's Important to get air circulation around the base as much as up above
@hotmamma, less water and more time between watering I used to make the mistake thinking underwatering was so bad but in reality they recover alot faster underwater than overwatering which causing a headache of issues
@Igrowneil, they are in 15 gallon fabric pots. almost 3 days with no more water. I put my finger in the soil. I’d say it’s damp not soaked. Some area of the pots are dry on top but some are still damp. They look fuller and have grown up to 4”. I have an oscillating fan blowing with an 8” AC Infinity system. Been running 78-82 to burn off some water. Humidity at 60-71 percent. Opening tent to let humidity escape so no mold or fungus grows. When I open it I’ll drop about 10 -15 percent. I overwatered Sunday - Monday before that I had only hand watered up to 40 Oz a day. So hopefully they can recover. I feel like they are trying hard to make it.
Awesome work for a first grow! great set up.. I applaud you for taking on such a big grow your first time around, but looks like you did it right and that reward of harvest is just around the corner. Its very interesting to see the wild variation between plants that are all BB autos at the same stage of growth week to week. I ran several of ILGM's autos when i first started growing and this was the case across most of them. But thats why I only do photoperiods now (among a whole lot of other reasons). Good luck in the remaining few weeks!
