SuperPlink Planted everything in final containers. They are in mother earth loose coco. Right oi it of the bag. Says they buffer so we will hope they aren't lying. There is a 9th strain, being 3 bears of x mango smile. All are on day 7wish.
I feed really low for now and I will be moving it up as the root ball gets bigger. The recharge and cannazym are used opposite each other and less frequently than the essentials. Increasing the intensity of the light (1000w my at half power right now). When veg is full on I will be swapping out this mh bulb for a fresh one. Then, a 1000w hps bulb will be introduced around the middle of the stretch.
We will see if we can top my fastbuds run from last time which only ended up using about 4x4 out of the 5x5, but yielding about 650g dry with no larf. Same 9 pots.
Hopefully we will have some good growth and a full tent.
SuperPlink Noticed some issues with a few of the sativa leaning plants. It is most evident on the cdlc x skywalker. Looks like maybe I needed some more iron or magnesium or something and then it hit me...there isnt much of these things in the flora trio compared to some other products I had, so I have been working a little boomerang comeback and microbe brew in to get some soluble minerals and I cut out the recharge for a few days instead. Could have been from light, nutes/lockout, etc. So I moved the lights a little up, started watering till runoff, measured the ph and ppm and got it lined up. Gonna keep up the watering to runoff every time, but only when it dries up a little. So not every day yet, but close to it.
Hoping that some of these ladies will hush up and give me a somewhat decent harvest. I guess we will see in the next two weeks.
If you have any advice or suggestions let me know!
SuperPlink Mu ph meter broke and my next is about 3 weeks out. Drops it is for now. At least I'll have a fresh electrode straight from the factory.
Plants have all been trained in the last few days. Just been tuckin in the meantime. Gwk seems to be stretching the fastest, as I thought it would be the avt or cdlc x skywalker. Either way we have progress. Hoping for 2oz a piece hopefully.
Looks like the ladies are ready for more nitrogen so I'm adding more this evening and hoping they enjoy it. Hit with neem 2 days ago because I spotted like 20 aphids in my yard. Hopefully they stay outside. Sprayed my entire veggie garden(s) and my fence perimeter with einstein oil and am ready with that monterrey take down if need be. Truth is I got a hydrostore 2 blocks from my house. Crazy thing is I worked there as a kid when it was a restaurant. Now we grow the dank together. Hah! What a world. Anyways everything looks promising to me. See ya next week!
Ooh and I fixed my fucked up vivosun oscillating fans. They kept sticking. Not anymore. Airflow for all! Installing an ac unit tomorrow as it will be 92 out. Hoping it doubles as a dehum so I can unplug mine and save a few bucks. We will see, but I'll give anything I can to the dank so let's keep her rollin! Have a good time in the ethers, my friends!
SuperPlink Day 28ish. We have been spilling our nutrient solution on the lower leaves and it burns them with spots and holes, so I have been removing the very lowest leaves here and there as not to stress out the plants. I have been using trist tie stuff and chop sticks to lst and Bush out the plants. Some are hitting their early flower stretch. Looks like I'll get maybe another week of veg out of some of these ladies, but the cdlc x skywalker and gwk have begun flowering. The avt, sour crinkle, the mango crosses, dg x skywalker, forum, and strawberry x skywalker are all still vegging somewhat.
I believe I caught some wind damage and or some kinds nute lockout, so last night we flushed with some gh florakleen, then laid out some fresh nutes with foxfarm's open sesame added to promote bud sites as the transition to flower begins. The lights have also been cranked up to 1k mh and raised about a foot so the plants dont take it too hard.
I think we are doin good all in all. I haven't had to water without a ph meter ever so it is an adjustment. The new meter should be here within 2 weeks, so my fingers are crossed, my brows raised, my ears perked and my pupils dilated.
I've got 2 Mango smile x cosmic queen ladies going currently. They are some bushy strain and stretched to around 24" total. I'm in flower currently, they do look like they be some good buds.
@Middlelifer, nice. This is promising. I was underwhelmed with the mango varieties at first, but they are definitely catching right on up and not flowering yet. (Day 23 and 24). Half the tent is;avt, grape walker kush (very resilient. I snapped the top halfway off maybe 2 inches down from the new growth, so the top and 2 branches. And it bounced right back. Masking tape). Also, the cdlc x skywalker. The rest are just showing sex. Hopefully they get high, but not too big!).
@SuperPlink, I've snapped them and taped back, weeds live no matter what lol. These MSxCQ are getting very nice, looks height is maxed and its just fattening and ripening at this point. Could have easily scrogged this strain, it takes Lst fine. I FIMmed some branches to bulk them up, the did great. For me in my grow space, if these come out with over 28gms per plant, its a pretty successful grow. These girls can take up 2 sq ft easy laid out per bush. Timing is looking like a 90 day before harvesting at this point. Good luck and they eat alot too, they respond very well to flushes and nutes. Cal-mag is a must of course.
