Day 38
Adjusted LST ties, added one more. Watered with no Fish Sh!t. Light is on 75% / 300w.
Day 41
Leaves have a droop, she is thirsty. Will water when the lights come back on. I keep considering light defoliation, but with the LST and tucking, every bud site is getting light. Might be selfish or naive, but I want to leave (pun intended) them and see what I get.
Night 41
Gave her 24oz of PH6.25 spring water with Fish Sh!t. Adjusted LST ties. Clipped 2 dying lower leaves (inner canopy, no light). Clipped another 2 leaves that were blocking bud sites or were suckers. Light is at 77%
TRICHOMES!!!!!!!!
Day 43
The droop is worse. The leaves and leaf stems are drooping. I originally thought I overwatered, because I did water more than I ever have most recently. But when I lifted the pot, it was light. She's been drinking!!! So I watered at 6.4. There is one lower fan leave showing nute deficiency. Either Nitrogen or Potassium. The droop then must be a combination of thirst and hunger. Hopefully, she bounceback from this little famine once I feed her (maybe tomorrow). I'm going to buy some calmag because the worm castings bring too many fungus gnats. I'm not about to deal with that again!ππ€¨π€
Day 45
Top dressed with 1Tbl each of veg & all purpose nutes, 4Tbl of flower nutes. 2Tbl of worm castings, 3Tbl of coco-loco, and a pinch of Azoz. Watered it in with 6.3PH water. Leaf tucked, LST adjustment, and snipped two yellow leaves and one sucker. Top drenched with Neem Oil to preemptively treat fungus gnats..
Even canopy! Lots of bud sites, but like 4 or 5 mains! I am hoping this ends the droop with no stunting. Next top dress will be day 60ish.
Day 46
She is on the rebound! Leaf stems are standing up straight. Leaves still have some droop, but are clearly recovering. She'll be back to health in another 24 to 36 hours. I added another humidifier to the room. Night humidity goes into the upper 30s. With the room humidifier, I hope to keep the tent RH at 50%. Stocking up on distilled water, going to need it to finish this grow and dry. Today I watered @ 6.3PH with Fish Sh!t added. Fresh, new, microbial residents to put the recently amended nutes to good use. Adjusted LST ties, tucked some more leaves. Canopy is on point!
Day 47
Bottom watered roughly 6 to 8 ounces of water.
Day 48
Bottom watered again. Looking a bit better. Now I have to make sure I keep her moist but not overwater.
Day 49
Still recovering, but showing signs of progress. Canopy maintenance is pretty much daily at this point. Vigor is good here. Considering a worm tea, as the top dress hasn't kicked in yet. Maybe I will just stick with Fish Sh!t.
Hey! Happy growing my friend! I hope you do well and get some good results! I will come by sometime to see your progress!
