Watered it a little bit the first week, humidity was always high 75% and temperature was around 22C-23C day time (18 hours) and 19C-20C night time (6 hours)
Moved her to a grow tent this week, the humidity was getting out of control in a plastic germination container that I kept her in the first week.
Watered it with a ph of 6.3, no fertilizers added, I use lemon juice to bring the Ph down.
Struggled with the temperature when I moved her to the tent, but was able to keep it cool after.
This week was fine, a little heat outside caused the temperature to rise above preferred temp. I wanted it at 22-23C but it wouldn't go down lower than 24C.
Sleep time temperature was 20C
Hi everyone, I'm growing for the first time, today morning I noticed one spot on her I used fertilizers for the first time on June 10th when I watered her last...
It was drinking fast after the last weeks heat, I watered it in the beginning of the week with a 6.5Ph no fertilizers, only lemon juice to bring the ph down.
I moved the lamp up a bit, because the burn she had on the top leaf might have been because of the lamp being too close.
Replanted it on June 17th, to a 1 gallon pot and watered it with a bit of nutrients added
What is that? Is it normal? Its like dry and I can peel it off kind of like dead "skin" 🤢 but I'm scared cause idk what that is... should I leave it be? Or its bad?
(Its not spider web, its like growing from the plant or something peeling off) 🤷♀️
Could it be root problem?
Shes been getting some brown spots on the bottom leaves. watered it on the 20th with 500ml water added cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow 4-3-3.
On the 21st I changed the lamp (12 inches away from plant), to 250W and did topping for the first time in the evening when she woke up, and the next morning she was looking fine but stressing, on the 23 I watered it again only added microbial mass pro, the morning 24th she looked happy, not stressed anymore.
She got a bright green spot on her top leaf.
On the 24th moved the flower down a little, 14 inches from the lamp
Watered it again on the 25th, more water this time, before used 500ml, today I gave her 750ml of water and only added BioRoot and used lemon to lower the ph.
Hi
Thats great. You'll start with the single, then 3 fingers, then on to 5 and 7 and most people will get some 9 fingers. Basically your plants completely healthy and happy. Keep up the good work. 👍
I noticed a small light green spot a couple of days ago on her and I know I had this on the very bottom first leaves couple of weeks ago and now its on a very top leaf.
It is nothing and not an issue for concern, no plant will ever have 100% perfect leaves, 100% of the time.
It is not caused by anything and will not harm your plants' growth, yields or potency.
It is just like a mole or freckle on a humans' skin.
Hope this helps, Organoman.
(Not from my diary, asking for a friend, thank you)
Hi guys, need some help please.
What can cause this problem on the leaves?
I'm using foxfarm soil (ocean forest)
Ph range 6.5-6.7
Cal mag 4 ml /gallon
Looks healthy, fully recovered after topping last week, growing faster now. moved the lamp up a bit again it was getting too hot.
Watered it today, 500ml water with 1ml/L BioRoot 0-1-1 and lemon to bring the ph down.
Watered it on the 29th morning, the soil was too dry and I added cal-mag since lower leaves been getting brown spots.
Fimed two side top branches on the 29th June.
July 1st, watered it 900ml lemon only to flush the NaCl build up had 5ml runoff, the ph of the run off was 6.24
The fimed branches aren't growing still....
Supercropped it on July 2nd.
I use fox farm forest ocean soil, I barely used any nutrients so far, it was growing fine, I add bioRoot 0-1-1 with each watering though and just regular lemon 🍋 to lower the ph.
The lower leaves could be from the leaves touching the soil when the plant is in rest mode, or from water getting on it from watering. It could even be start of a calcium deficiency. Make sure when you water you get run off out the bottom of the pot. Make sure your ph is in range. Don't weed with every watering try and feed every 2nd or 3rd watering. Wait for top inch of soil to dry inbetween watering/feeding.
Looks like a FIM. Two new sites will grow on the sides of the removed growth. Sometimes new growth will grow out of where you cut as well and you get 3 heads lol.
Good luck with your grow
I had this problem only on lower leaves before, and today over night I noticed its all over my plant. Its been in fox farm ocean forest for 2 weeks, i water with lemon to bring ph down, I thought the soil had enough nutrients to last a while, what could it be???
It’s not a deficiency. It’s the first symptom of a the EC level starting to raise, NaCl is forming up in the soil. You’re probably not using enough water when you water the plant, and not getting enough drain coming out to rinse the extra salt out.
The lemon is citric acid, and just helped to get rid of a bit of the extra NaCl, but not enough apparently. It won’t be efficient as a pH Down, your tap water should be around 7 which is good enough for growing Cannabis, just let it sleep 48H to evaporate the chlorine. And finally, your soil is a buffer and should be somewhere around 6.2, you just need to look the manufacturer details on the bag, it should be written somewhere.
First time growing i want my plant shorter so I supercropped it... I'm scared I didnt do it right... is he gonna survive this? And what nutrients should I give him maybe to make him stronger less stressed?
Looks good. you might need to tie it down. As she heals she will get stronger and start bending up. see week 8 of my Barnies farm dairy where i do this to every branch. i even had some where the stem split. Didnt notice it heal any different from the clean bends
Watered it on July 3rd full 1L of water, no runoff. Added rhino skin for the first time to help her deal with the supercropping stress and also biomarine 2-3-1 first time use. And also BioRoot and microbial mass pro like usual.
Also the ph was too low so I used baking soda to bring the ph up to 6.5
On July 5th moved the lamp closer, was 32inches away now its 20inches
On July 6th watered it again before lights off, 1200ml water this time, with extra run off. Only added cal mag and lemon to bring ph down,- ph 6.75 (hope to bring the soil ph up from 6.24 currently) (runoff ph 5.9)
On July 9th, watered it again, 1200 ml, a little bit runoff this time. I added bio root and cal mag, ph 6.8
The runoff ph was at 6. So watering with 6.8 works.
Soil- Fox farm ocean forest. I barely add any extra nutrients only bio root and microbial mass pro, but this started 3 days ago and its getting worse so I thought maybe wasn't enough nutrients so I added biomarine yesterday and rhino skin 🤷♀️🤦♀️ did I make it worse???
Hi there, Yours looking good.Don't worry much.But I would recommend to use some Cal-Mag supplement because I see some possible Magnesium deficiency in your last photos.Happy growing... ✌️
I checked the runoff ph, a week ago it was at 6.2 and 3 days ago when I last watered it was already 5.9 even though I watered with ph 6.7 (I always used to water with ph 6.5) but the 6.7 didn't help much. So I have to water today again she's dry, Or flush with high ph water?? Idk
Hi there soil ph should be 6 to 6.8 so your only just out of the range. Try input at 6.8 and that should raise you back up to 6 then continue feeds/water with that high a ph and it should bring it up. Before you water the plants make sure your ph adjusted water has been sitting for a while because sometimes if you check the ph just after adjusting you may get a figure that is false because the ph hasn't had time to stabilise. If you get what I mean. Stoned. Very stoned
Watered it on the 12th, 1200ml water, ph 6.8 I added rhino skin 1ml/l, bioroot 1ml/l, cal mag 1ml/l
On July 13th I topped one of the branches
On July 14th I watered it with 1300ml water a little bit run off, rhino skin 1ml/l, bioroot 1ml/l, cal mag 1ml/l.
ph of the watering solution was 6.8 and the ph of the run off is at 6.45 now.
On July 16th watered it same stuff but the ph of the solution was 6.5 (used lemon to bring ph down), runoff ph is at 6.42.
And also pruned it for the first time, removed all dying lower fan leaves.
I've supercropped the main stem a week and a half ago, I wanna supercrop all the side branches when they grow a little longer, probably next week.. is it possible? Or is it gonna be too much stress, 7-9 branches at ones???
If needed, I wouldn’t be worried about supercropping several branches at once.
That said, it looks like you have got a great horizontal canopy going so far.. unless you are pressed for vertical space I think you nailed it as far as training so far.
On July 17th, topped 3 more branches, couple of hours before lights off.
July 19th watered it, 6.75 ph 1200ml, no runoff.
Added rhino skin 1ml/l, cal mac 1ml/l, bio root 1ml/l. Also added dry nutrients mixed with soil (goguano all purpose) half a tablespoon on top of soil mixed with extra soil.
July 21 watered 400ml (before lights off) ph water 6.78.
After the lights turned on, watered it with 1500ml ph 6.78, the ph of the run off is at 6.94 now. (Added rhino skin 1.5ml, cal mag 1.5ml, bio root 1.5ml)
On July 23, topped 3 more branches. And watered 1L ph of the solution was 6.5
I added rhino skin 1ml/l, cal mag 1ml/l and bio marine 1.5ml/l, also lemon to lower the ph.
Run off is at 6.89 now.
Some of my top leaves been getting weird colour like lines along the leaves, i noticed it yesterday... I barely add any nutrients i dont think its a burn
Your plant will now have used most the nutrition in the soil, most soils run out of nutrition around 5 to 6 weeks. You prob don't need to go to high an Ec on the bottled nutes but it's time to start adding some.
On July 25th watered it. 1500ml water 6.45ph, added 1.5ml each- rhino skin, cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow. Also used lemon to lower the ph.
Had around 125ml run off with a ph of 6.71
July 26th watered it again 1500ml with the exact same nutrients like yesterday, ph of the watering solution was 6.48. And had 500ml run off with a ph of 6.78
July 28th watered it 1300ml, ph of the solution was 6.45 I added rhino skin 1ml, cal mag 1ml, bio root 1ml, biothrive grow 1.5ml.
Had 130ml run off and the ph of the run off is at 6.74
July 29th pruned the leaves a little gave it some more space to breathe.
July 30th, watered 1300ml ph 6.48
Added rhino skin 1ml, cal mag 1ml, bio root 1ml, biothrive grow 1.5ml

As of this week I can see she's finally recovered after all the stress I put her through (HST, topping, LST)
On August 1, watered it 1300ml, ph of the solution was 6.44, I added rhino skin 1ml and 1.3ml each- cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow.
Had some run off but she sucked it all in, in less than 5 minutes I barely had time to measure the ph of the run off which was 6.72.
Planning on transplanting it this week to a 5 or 7 gallon pot, she's currently in a 1 gallon pot.
August 2, watered it 1L, ph 6.46. Added 1ml each- rhino skin, cal mag, bio root and biothrive grow.

Had a good run off, ph 6.8
Also pruned her, due to beginning thrips problem, removed the leaves that might have been infected 🤢😫
August 27, light stayed off.
I noticed this tiny guy yesterday and lost it in my plant right away, but today the same bug and I caught it. I always check my plant it does NOT have any eggs or bugs, or did I ever have a bug problem in my tiny grow tent... should I be worried? What is it?
Looks like a thrip to me.
They can be a pain in the ass.. even if you don’t see others they are likely there. I’d begin some type of pest management regimen to exterminate any others and be sure no more populate your grow area.
There’s plenty of natural pest management solutions you can use, especially since you’re not in flower yet. I have used dr zymes which was decent but prefer Green Cleaner.
I’d be proactive with it, because if they stick around into flower it’s a whole nother beast in my opinion.
Odds are what you saw the other day is not the same one you saw and caught today.. so there’s likely more. If there’s no physical damage to leaves yet than you’re in good shape but still recommend starting a preventative pest management regimen.
August 29, at 3am in the early morning I switched her to 12/12, she's been without lights since the night of August 27th.
August 30th, watered 6L, ph 6.5
Added rhino skin 6ml, and cal mag 2ml... also used a pinch of baking soda to bring the ph up.
Ph of the run off is at 6.6 now
August 31, I've added dry nutrients, GoGuano Super Bloom 2-9-5, mixed it with extra soil then watered it 2.5 L water, ph 6.4, only added biothrive bloom 3.5ml
September 2, watered it 7L watered mixed in, rhino skin 10ml, cal mag 2ml, bio root 7ml, bio thrive grow 8ml and bio bud 2.5ml.
Only used 6L though, got a good run off.
Ph of the solution was 6.5 and ph of the run off is at 6.4
September 5, watered it, 6L added rhino skin 10ml, cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 7ml, bio bud 2.5ml. Solution ph 6.6 and run off ph is still at 6.4
Also pruned her a little bit.
September 8 watered it, 6L added rhino skin 10ml, cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 7ml, bio bud 2.5ml. Solution ph 6.6, and run off ph is at 6.5
September 10, pruned it a little bit.
September 11, watered it, 6L added rhino skin 10ml, cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 6ml, bio bud 2.5ml. Solution ph 6.5 and run off ph is at 6.6
September 13, watered, 6L added cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 7ml, bio bud 2.5ml, ph 6.4 and run off ph was 6.4
September 16, 2021 watered, 6L added cal mag 4ml, bio thrive bloom 7ml, bio bud 2.5ml. Solution ph 6.5, run off ph 6.4
September 19, watered 6l, added cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 10ml, bio bud 3ml. Solution ph 6.5, and run off ph 6.4
September 23 watered it, 5ml water, added rhino skin 2ml, cal mag 2ml, bio thrive bloom 8ml, bio bud 2.5ml. Solution ph 6.5, run off ph 6.5
I think because I switched lamps (changed to LED)when I switched her to flower, the lamp was too strong from the start, I fixed it by putting the lamp a little higher and increased lights slowly. But the old leaves all got burned and yellowed... but the new leaves (hard to tell on the pictures yet) they look healthy and already turning purplish... 🤞🤞🤞
