Day 31 -Watered each plant with 8 cups of pH balanced water. Removed all LST ties since the canopy on both plants are pretty even. Going to be top dressing next watering. Day 34 -Watered each plant with 8 cups of pH balanced water. Water was dosed with 1tsp of Recharge. Also removed straw mulch, then top dressed with 2.5tsp of Terp Tea Bloom, a cup of earthworm castings, and then placed the mulch back on top of everything. Also defoliated some lower bid sites and plucked off leaves that were dying from lack of light. If by week 4 of flower these ladies aren't showing any issues with the nutrients, then I'll go ahead and add another 2.5tsp, but will only be adding that, as it's too late in flower to add earthworm castings.

Grow Questions

KCChiefersstarted grow question 3 years ago
Discoloration on some lower leaves. Rest of plant is healthy, so I'm wondering if I should top dress with my bloom nutes now? It could just be because both plants are so bushy, it's just dying because lack of light? I dunno. What do you guys think? To me looks like N def
Solved
Leaves. Color - Yellow

That's just cause she doesn't get enough light like the rest of the leaves. A nitrogen deficiency will be more uniform yellowing. But good job!

@ripsharting, thanks! Went ahead and checked your ladies out and they're looking pretty amazing as well! My first run ever...so I think I went to heavy with nutes. Trying the same soil out again in my other 2 grows, and going to not add my top dressing unless they show deficiencies. So far about 40 days in, and just some burnt tips since autoflowers are such babies 😜

Since we're not feeding bottled nutrients, with my soil being completely dry almost, the plant couldn't uptake its nutrients from the soil. Now with the addition of a garden sprayer, we're back in tip top shape! For my organic soil growers, getcha one and you won't regret it! 😏

I think you did a good job with this grow. Very nice work on your first living soil. Do you plan to recycle the soil for another grow?

@KCChiefers, we’ll that’s still a win, my friend. Enjoy your next living soil grow.

@NeedsMoreFans, originally I was planning on recycling it, but didn't realize the extra space I needed so at the moment, I'm tossing it out and using it for my outdoor garden later this year, and just using new soil each "run".

You did great for soil. If you like the gelatos. You may want to try the green gelato auto. Is is a strong high that will put you to sleep if you smoke very much of it. This grow came out great 😃

@justright, thanks! She's doing better for taste and smell now that she's been curing for 3 weeks or so. But that's my problem, not very much space and so many strains to try 😭😅
