Hi again growmies.
This run is going to be a mixed run, mainly for the purpose of having variation in what medicine I have (Flavours, effects ect)
All of these seeds were germinated directly in to root riot cubes with a sprinkling of mycorrhizal powder and watered very lightly.
The two known cultivars growing are:
Stardawg auto from Fast Buds and also Northern lights auto, also from Fast Buds.
The other two are mystery seeds, these are seeds I've had a while now but they don't have packaging. All seeds I've purchased have been either Fems or Autos.
The one with growth is the single survivor from my previous mystery seed run. She has been translated to a slightly bigger and better fabric pot.
Thank you guys for having a look at my grow diary.
Wish you all happy harvests ✌️
Hi matey. The discolouring could be down to needing calmag , well more mg really. L.e.d is known to leech it from the plants as does coco too. I have the same issue just starting to show out more so have added 10ml calmag to the 10L watering. I am using megacrip and shogun products in my l.o.s so rely more on them than the life in the pots at the moment ( can switch it back to alive with a recharge and life-cycle) avoids the greedy needs mid flower and my los not keeping up due to smaller pot sizes then recommended 200L at 60L. Use it for the water movement mainly now. A clever or similar cover crop can also give great results and help with mulching/slower water evaporation too.
@UKPersonal420,my pleasure mate. Tou can grind soneneggshells upnafter putting them into the oven to brown off a bit. Grind it up to a dust and add this to the soil. Free amendments and still all natural. Wash the shells out before oven drying though. Works a treat.
@Ganjagrandaddy, Hey man, thanks again for commenting and providing valuable information👍
Yes I believe you are right with the MG being a problem but I currently do not have any Organic cal mag other than my dry ammendments like wormcasts and the grow/bloom nutrients. She is also under a Mars Hydro LED that does say plants will need more cal mag under it. I recently just spent all my "growing money" on other items so I'm hoping that with a good old feeding of the wormcasts along with the other dry ammendments that she recovers abit better 🤞
The other plants do not look as bad even after getting that mini heatwave last week... Thankfully.
I have some mulch and cover crop on the way so I'll be making sure the soil is more protected then.
Thanks again for stopping by mate, loving your diaries by the way. Great detail and videos!
Peace ✌️😎
Hey these are looking great! If any thing what I usually will do if they start off slow I will do a half feed with advanced a+b coco from what I’ve learned! Tbh I’m thinking of switching nutes to as they are kind of week for late veg the Npk ratio doesn’t seem to do it even when I go over??! But none of the less and maybe try germinating in a bit of great white and they usually pop with in 15/24hr max buddy of good genetics!!! Add me on IG for way more content!! @NEXTDOORGROWER
@UKBUDDOCTOR,
Hey growmie,
Thanks for the good advice!
I've heard good things about great white so that's definitely on the shopping list 🙂
Thanks for commenting and happy harvests 👍
@lovely_neighbours, Hey growmie,
I found these at my local garden centre but you can get them online. They are called garden pegs and it's best to get the galvanized ones 🙂
Thanks for stopping by
As xmcrazy as it sounds, have you inspected the leaves undersides dormant "friends". It is ideal spidermite tine for us uk tribes. Certainly looks ready to rock now.
@Ganjagrandaddy, Yeah I've checked with a loupe and not found any intruders but there was alot of them a few weeks back. Might be residual damage? She is just doing her second run of pistils now and is looking okay in her buds but I think those leaves are essentially dead at this point.
Great update UK. Lots of info and some great pics to follow your thinking and planned organics. Gnats are a pain in the arse and need dealing with very fast. They can each lay 100-200 eggs and gain number . I used a powder that you top dress with. Instant killing adults and emerging babies too but has no I'll effects to plant agorathin I think it is called. Works brilliant and now no gnats anywhere at all for 2 harvests since. Love what your doing . Keep up the good work mate. Temps back to reasonable now thankfully.
@Ganjagrandaddy, Thank you mate 🙂 so far so good with the organic switch, especially now I've got some mulch going.
Yeah I really hate them, got some nematodes on the way to treat them so hopefully with the mulch and Pearlite I can reduce their numbers for a few days until nematodes arrive.
I'll have a look at that agorathin now, is it organic? Can you store it for a good amount of time?
Thanks again growmie appreciate it and yes hopefully now the temps should go back to normal 👍
Low humidity is a problem for me at the moment and it's causing slightly slower grow I think. Any tips on a cheap humidifier?
Peace ✌️😎
