Hi guys, this is my first grow.
Setup:
Strain: Cream Caramel F1 Fast Version (Sweet Seeds), Purple Punch (Barney’s Farm)
Tent: RoyalRoom 60x40x120cm
Light: LED 83w, PPF 226 µmol
Ventilation: S&P 160/100 Silent + Rhino Pro 350 m/3
Fan: 5w pin
Pot: Jiffy Pellet, Cup 0.5l, Grow bag 2.5l, Air-Pot 6l
Media: UGro Pure Air buffered 400ppm, 70/30 perlite
Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Sensi Coco + all stimulators.
Water: 8ppm, 5.5ph
Germination:
29.07
Both seeds were soaked in a glass of water + peroxide 1 ml/l for ~a day, then for ~a day they were left between cotton pads in a warm, dark place. Both seeds bore well and were planted in a Jiffy Pellet.
01.07
Opened the cotyledons, by the evening a decent root was sticking out from the bottom of the Jiffy. Transplanted into 0.5l cups of buffered coco coir (400ppm). Started daily fertigation (~60ml by syringe).
07.08
Up fertilizer concentration from 400 to 600 ppm.
10.08
Plants grow quickly. Transplanted into a 2.5l growbag. Cream Caramel started to produce a slight odor and had to plug in a carb filter. My previous cream caramel plant also started to smell early.
14.08
Up fertilizer concentration from 600 to 850ppm.
16.08
Up fertilizer concentration from 850 to 1500 ppm.
18.08
Both were topped. Were transplanted into a 7L air-pots.
Hi guys. Do my plants need topping if I have little space (60x40x120cm) and I am planning a scrog? Are the plants ready for topping? After topping, I plan to use only lst + scrog, no mainlines/manifolds. I also plan to turn on the lights 12/12 in a week or two. Thanks!
Yes I would top soon.. if you’re not mainlining I’d leave 3-4 nodes so you’ll have 6-8 main branches to weave thru the scrog.. keeping more than 3-4 nodes that will be tough in a smaller area like that IMO.
Hi guys. These spots have formed on the lower leaves. Is it a cal-mag deficit or maybe is it due to strong airflow? Also, are they already big enough to switch to 12/12 light or give them another week? Thanks!
Wow—- short bushy things. You are at week 4— so you can flip.
A lot of growers have been doing the 24 hours of darkness before the 12/12 and it’s awesome. Faster flip, faster growth. Looking good 💪🏼✌️🏻💨🌿💚
Hi guys. Is my Cream Caramel okay? Please check my diary. It is considerably more bushy than a Purple Punch and seems to grow more slowly. They are fertilized with the same solution and have the same out ppm. Maybe defoliation for more light? Thanks!
I think you’re totally fine man.. some strains have shorter internodal space and recover slower from different stressors. They both look great honestly.
Depending on when you wanna switch to flower, I’d give it some mild defoliation just to help with air flow around the leaves but I think you’re in great shape..
I have a black domina plant that literally has 2 nodes every inch.. it’s bushy as hell but when it flowers - it’s a glorious thing. Let them do their thing and just keep in mind every strain is different. Good luck
28.08 Reduced the concentration of fertilizers to 730ppm (A+B grow base 2ml/l, B-52 1ml/l).
31.08 Flush with GHE Kleen 2ml/l.
01.09 Switched to fertilizers for bloom (a+b base + stims).
Hi. On 23.08 I changed the light mode to 12/12 (before that it was 36 hours of darkness) but the plants still haven't bloomed but showed gender. The problem is that there is about 10 cm left to the lamp and I can no longer train it. How long can the plant stretch?
Bájale la intensidad a la lámpara y redúcele la humedad entre el 45%-55%, verás como comienza a florecer. Hasta la tercera semana del cambio de luz no se empieza a enterar.
Crecer, puede estar creciendo hasta el final de sus días, pero redúcele la cantidad de nitrógeno para frenar un poco su crecimiento.
También te aconsejo algo de defoliación (10%-15%), que también ayuda a parar el crecimiento. Te interesa que las flores absorban toda la luz posible.
Suerte!! 💪
Estan bien Pero te dejo um consejo, adv Nutrients y si tecnologia pH Perfect está aprimorada para Hydro, y se que vás En coco. El pH Perfect, te baja el ph a 5.5 o dependiendo de los dosajes, 5.3/5.0.
Aun que lê eches Sensi CalMag, puede que tengas algun bloqueo de CalMag por el pH bajo.
Mi consejo és que si lê das Sensi CalMag, Al água lê eches entre 150 a 300 ppm de CalMag y solo despues las bases A/B.
Aun te sugiero que si puedes, lê des um pH 6.0 o 6.5 para que lo lês falte de nada.
Aun asi, el verde de que te quejas és ló que muchos buscan! Estan guapas y sanas! De momento no tienes porque preocupar-te!
Buen trabajo colega 💪🏆
Hi guys. Why do leaf tips dry on my plant and yellow dots appear on the top leaves? They bloom for about ~30 days. I use AN Ph perfect Sensi Coco at 4ml/l. In: ~1500ppm, Out: 1750ppm, 5.7ph. Thanks.
Leaf tips are a sign of nutrient burn. Your feeding to much. The dots are a deficiency showing up from to many nutrients built up in your coco. Flush with PH adjusted water( No nutrients) until the PPM of the out water shows within 100PPM of the water going in. Let it dry before watering again. Drop your nutrients down to 1200 and see if new growth shows signs. Old growth will not recover.
Happy Growing.
Hola compañero.
Yo diría que tienes un exceso de potasio. El exceso de potasio provoca menor espacio internodal y mayor follaje. También provoca deficiencias de calcio, magnesio, zinc y hierro, además de relentizar el crecimiento.
Para comprobarlo, riega tu planta con bastante agua con pH neutro (7.0) y mide el pH de lo que escurra, seguro que te sale inferior al 5.8 que dices en el diario.
Entre el B-52 y el Delta 9, le estás añadiendo mucho porcentaje de potasio. Reduce la cantidad.
Y si tienes poco espacio, como yo, las deberías haber cambiado a 12/12 hace una semana.
Suerte.💪
@OGSesh,
si miras las fotos del 21.08 y las del 27.08 aprecias el cambio en ambas plantas, aunque la Purple Punch se ve menos afectada, puede ser que sea más resistente por genética.
Reduce la dosis a la mitad de ambos fertilizantes la semana próxima y controla el pH (te aconsejo 6.1-6.3), cambia el ciclo a 12/12 y ya me contarás. 😜
@fraankiiee, Hi mate. Thanks for the advice. Yes, you're right, I have an 5.8ph out. I add b-52 at every fertilizing 2ml/l. It's a lot? I only used Cannabiogen twice as a leaf spray. Plus the purple punch doesn't look low and bushy, which is weird.
Hola compañero.
Se ven algo mejor que la última semana, pero aún tienes clorosis en los nuevos brotes. Te aconsejo que le varíes un poco el pH, ya que las fluctuaciones entre 5.8-6.4 les viene mejor que fijarselo a un valor constante.
Además, yo que tú le bajaba un poco la humedad (52.5%-62.5%).
Suerte bro.!!! 💪
Amazing grow! Really good job dude! I wish you the best results with the most delicious buds!
Nice to see your journals! I will drop by some times to check your progress!
Feel free to come by and say hello!
Happy growing 🥦🤩
