Seeds from the pressed weed sold here in brazil.
Accidentally germinated inside the wet weed itself during the drying process after washing weed. So i decided to give it a chance.
03/08/21-The pink marked plant suffered a small accident, so i moved her from the little pot to a larger one with 50% perlite and 50% inert substrate.
05/08/21-Removed the 100w LED reflector and put them in outdoor temporarily(Cloudy days, around 20° by the day, and 15° by the night). By the day 09/08/2021 my 400w LED reflector will come and i'll put them back to the indoor light.
08/08/21-Green marked plant got transplanted, 24 hours later her roots atrophied.
09/09/21-Transplanted the green marked one once again to a smaller pot, a bit more deep with more soil on the top.
11/08/21-Same happened to the other plant, did a small surgery on her with more soil on the top as well, a little bit of fertilizer plus some water, she is recovering well.
No signal of my 400w LED yet, plants are kinda dormant with the outdoor grow as the weather here is very cloudy and windy lately
Only one plant left after a few mistakes. Accidentally over-fertilized and over watered one of my plants(forgot that I did it few days ago and did again in a very very short period of time. It could not resist and withered to death, sadly.
The last one is standiing still. LESSON LEARNED. HARD WAY.
My 400w led refletor arrived few days ago and the plant went straight to its 18/6. A better development is already perceived with the indoor light.
Covered my pot with a black material as a friendly grower have teach me that roots like absolute darkness. Thanks @Organoman.
21/08/21- Transplant day done! Roots extremely healthy, all gud on goin!
Good day, growers;
I having issues with PH, my TAP water is 7.2, when i mix it to a same volume portion of my soil, it becomes 6.6, can I deduce from this data that my soil is appropriate for growing? Around 6, as the water become acidic?? I really dont know how pH really works.
I wouldn't worry about it, but move your plants to black/dark pots, roots need absolute darkness to develop and clear or thin white containers are a no-no.
pH affects nutrient availability in the soil, but unless your soil is below 5.5 or over 7.5, 95% of nutrient availability is still possible.
Anywhere between 6.2 and 7.2 is fine when growing in soil, most commercial soil mixes are perfectly adequate and unless you dump a ton of a single fertilizer on your plants, I would not even bother worrying about pH, I haven't for 25+ years!
I spent the first 10 years of growing trying to get everything exact, including pH, and found it was not that critical when growing in soil that is well balanced and does not contain too much of any one single ingredient. For the last 25+ years I have refined my soil recipe to a point that I know it is well balanced and "just right" for growing cannabis, and if it is 6.6 or 7.1, (not that I check!), my plants never fail to flower exceptionally.
If your plants are growing fine, then you need not get too concerned with pH when growing with soil.
pH is far more critical when growing in coco or hydro, where nutrients are in a "suspension" and are designed to be "released" from the "suspension" at certain pH values. (a suspension being nutrients dissolved in water)
pH can be likened to static electricity, whereby if it is extreme it "holds on" to dissolved nutrients and when in the middle range will "let go" of the nutrients so that the plants can absorb them. The middle range is wide and forgiving when growing with soil.
It is far more critical to get your watering correct, evenly moist but not wet, and feeding only when needed. Feeding is better when done more often and with weaker strengths rather than once in a while with full strength, in my experience.
That is to say, if your fertilizer says every 2 weeks, I would give half strength every 7 days instead. This may give you some ideas, but if you get stuck, feel free to send me a message.
Hope this helps, Organoman.
Satisfied with the results at the moment, knowing that i harmed my plants enough for stun their grow changing environments more than i should.
21/08/21=Watered + fertilized with 250 dilluted in a few liters of water. Included worm humus in the soil, expecting grow improvement.
25/08/21=watered with a solution 100ml urine to 900ml water(testing The nitrogêny efficiency of this supplly) . Half recipient used.
27/08/21=First time training my plant, very anxious to see results from the Fimming.
28/08/21=Plant was a bit dry, recovered up just after watering. Detected some small leaf burns, probably from light. Increased distance a little bit to avoid more burns.
29/08/21=Some overfert detected, thus being organic, is only affecting a very small amount of the plant and it is spreading slowly. Will be watching close in the next days, water flush is a option if i need to.
30/08/21-Started some low dose of root grower, like 2ml per liter. Feeded with 200ml of that solution
08/09/21- Watered the plant with black beans water and root stimulant. 300ML total. Foliar spray before go sleep
09/09/21- Plant woke up with fungus once again, last week i got the "OIPIO" fungus and solved with 3ml of 3% oxigenated water diluted in 1 liter of water and it did the trick. Also sprayed in the leaves.
I'll stop for two weeks at least to spray leaves as i think it is stimulating fungus production.
Plans for 11/09/21= hot bed with minimal wood ash, 2 tbsp of bokashi buried in the soil, dead leaves and grean leaves cut and acting as mulch. And finally, fertirrigation with my DIY solution, 1 to 4 of water.
11/09/21= Watered with Tea made of 20g of bokashi powder in 1 liter of water + 5ml of root stimulant + DIY NPK (200ml). Added the bokashi used for the tea in the soil as well, mulched with some leaves covered in milk as well to prevent plagues.
16/09/21= Noticed some phosphorus and mag deficiency, gonna sort it out in the weekend top dressing with some rock powder. Apart from that, plant development is progressing.
17/09/21= Prepped almost every KNF, migrating to korean natural farming from this weekend on.
Should i worry about these marks and spots in my plant? I cant see any bugs or plagues eating my plant, i only had some mold before but used oxigenated water to deal with it and that is it. Now im worried about these random spots, already did some google searchs and nothing yet.
22/09/21=Top dress with bone meal and rock powder for fixing magnesium deficiency.
PH issue fixed, PH stabilized in 6.6 to 6.8
Little bit of old and damaged leaves defoliation
LST
Started application of KNF method of growing stuff. Using 1ml at this week and doubling to 2ml/L for each knf.
FAA = FISH AMINO ACIDS (Proteins, amino acids and that stuff full of nitrogen, good shit for life and plants)
FPJ = FERMENTED PLANT JUICE (Nutrients absorbed from the plant by osmotic pressure, rich in life)
LABS = LACTO ACID BACTERIUM SERUM (Way to inocule food and provide life to the soil, tons of life)
WCA = WATER SOLUBLE CALCIUM (1ML/L weekly during veg stage, 3ml/L at flower stage)
FSW = FERMENTED SEA WATER (USED TO PROVIDE OVER 80 TRACE MINERALS)
23/09/21=
26/09/21= fucked up the water pH, watered with 4.0 pH, tried to fix quickly and let's see how the plants gonna react. I hope a nice development week.
By the day, she is in the day four of the flowering week 0. Good luck to her? Or him?
@PeppaWutz, Thanks mate, im having good times treating my little greens already, im super excited to see its growing!! BTW, LED lamp upgraded from 100W to 400w, i hope i can develop better results.
Happy growing! I hope you get some good results! Take care and stay lit! I will drop by sometimes to check on your process! Say hello if you ever visit my page!
Peace & Love - L.S.T 🙏🏼🌟
