5 of 10 seeds popped out. 50% germination rate not really good this time. Does not know of i am the problem or the seeds :) this is my second nft grow and i think 5 plants are enough for me. Previous nft grow was much work with 9 plants and not controllable for me 😅
Water for 20min every 2 hours and at night no watering. They have some issue. I think its a calmag deficiency and will add calmag this week to the tank
Informations: 675 Watt LED light (1m distance to plants), 28 °C at day and 23 °C at night, 60% Humidity, EC 0.9, ph 5.7
Why did the lower leaves of my plant roll like tacos?
Hey friend, I saw your diary and it seems you have a calmag deficiency. I would add some calmag, you had brown spots on the leaf and that’s a sign. Hope it helps ☺️
LST this week and 3 days later I topped them. Had a calmag issue last week and after adding calmag to the resavoir new leaves grow fine.
They grow fine and after this week i will switch to flower because i am feared of the hight 🙌
Hallo, I have some spots on leaves due to calcium deficencie and it has stoped spreading above leaves by adding calmag to the nutrient solution. We talk about 2 single leaves per plant (max 3 leaves). Should I cut them of because they need energy to recover or does it not care?
You can leave them until they are completely yellow, it won't harm your plants, they just look a bit untidy.
While ever there is still some green in them, they will still be photosynthesising and making some energy for your plant to use for growth, and while not a lot, it is still a lot more than if they were not there!
Besides, as they go yellow, your plant will be translocating carbs, sugars, amino acids etc from the damaged leaves to be used in other parts of the plant where growth is occurring. Again, their removal will just deprive your plant of some goodness that it has already made, and while only small in quantity, it is a lot more than if the leaves were removed, for purely cosmetic reasons.
Remember too, all the plants' energy is made in the leaves, so removing them will just reduce the amount of energy your plant can make. Unfortunately, once burnt like this, the affected leaves will not recover, so leaving them until they are completely yellow before removing them is actually the best thing you can do for your plant. If, as you seem to think, your plants need "energy to recover", removing the leaves will mean there is less energy being made, therefore any type of "recovery" will take even longer due to the reduction in energy making capacity.
So, no need to remove them, they are not harming your plant and if you did remove them, "recovery" will take longer, plus you are also removing a source of ready made elements that she can/could use to aid in that "recovery".
Your plant "knows" what it is doing and once the leaves have passed their usefulness, they will fall off without any human intervention needed.
Hope this helps, Organoman.
Watertemperature 22 °C, 100 L reservoir (changed every week),Start EC 1.0 and drops to 0.8 at end of week, Ph adjusted daily to 5.8, tent temperature day 27 °C and at night 20 °C, humidity 55%. I add calmag to EC 0.4 and canna aqua until EC 1.
Why does my ph drop over night?
Your ph is dropping due to your plants up taking more water than nutrients. It leaves a higher concentration than when you first mixed. If they were taking more food then your ph would drift up. I used a growboss ph & nutrient meter for constant monitoring when I grew rdwc. Try lowering your ph to 5.8, that is the sweet spot for veg. 6.2 6.3 in flower. Cheers
Does somebody know why this happens and how I can stop it? I had the same issue last grow and this will become worse.
Some data: humidity 55%, water temp 21 °C, tent temp day 27 °C and at night 21 °C, EC lowered to 0.7 (befor 1), Ph 5.7 to 6.
I grow in a nft system with 100L.
Looks like a calmag issue to me my man. Wilting leaves comes from usually three things, too much water, not enough water, or two much direct light. Hope this help boss!
I forgot to switch on the pump after adjusting the ph and they were really f up the next day. Trouble with leaves is the next issue and hopefully fixed. My ph drops every day about 0.4 and i decided to lower ec from 1 to 0.7 and added some beneficial bacteria to the tank. New leaves are not effected by brown spots. Older leaves got really crispy and ugly. I removed some hard damaged leaves.
They are now in flower (2days) and I hope that the problem Session has ended.
No leave issue anymore. PH does drop every day about 0.5. Don't know why but when I find out NFT will be much easier. They grow like hell and hopefully with no more problems...
6 cm / day vertical growth since switch to 12/12 bend some maincolas to the net to manage space...
I do not know why my ph is drifring downwards every day about 0.5, huge not solved problem. Appeared while using NFT system 1st day until know 🙈
9 cm/ day growth. 60 cm higher than last week. First signs of white hairs on little buds😃👊
Spacing is my main problem this week and my ph drop problem still unsolved...
Huge stuff... 4 cm/day this week (last week 8 cm/day) so i think they stop growing hopefully... bend some huge stems down to the second net. Managing this is heavy.
They stretch only with 1 cm/day ☝️😋 biggest plant is about 2 m and the rest about 1.80 m (4 plants). The bud structure of the biggest plant is another. More stretchy and thin.
I am happy that only 5 of 10 seeds popped out... 10 hawaiian snow in a 1.44 m² tent would be very hart to manage
They stopped stretching and started to get bigger in bud growth. Some of the main colas are hanging directly under the light but i have no option to bend them.
They started to get heavy and i stoped giving them pk1314 and reduced ec from 1.6/1.7 to 1.3/1.5.
2 of 5 develope many foxtails and small/medium sized nugs. The other 3 huge fat colas.
First brown hairs to see... 😋👊
Week 9 bloom started! Massive fat buds have to be supported and they get daily more weight. I like the bud structure and they feel really hard.
This strain is fun to grow ☝️😃
Flushtime... 😃 last week started and I will flush them for 4-5 days. Dont want to change water 2 times a week
Trichomes and buds looking good. Next week harvest 👊😋
