Overnight soak in glass of distilled water
Followed by wet paper towel until tap root 1-2 inches. Not quite long enough at this stage so will give it another 12-24 hrs.
27/10 transplanted into coco , direct to final pot, 3 gallon
cotyledons popped end of last week, first signs of fan leaf's growing in today.
Light watering and mist, with distilled water when soil is dry.
Using cut off plastic bottles with water sprayed inside to keep humidity up for seedling stage
Looks nice and healthy this one, healthies of the 4 strains currently growing at seedling stage
The biggest girl of my current 4 plants. I hope she keeps growing at this rate.
I have however noticed a few tiny brown spots on her leaves. Hopefully not pests, I haven't noticed anything on my fly paper strips, I've moved these closer to the stem , placed on top of the coco to try and catch anything that may be climbing up her stem
Some tiny brown spots on her leaves, and slightly pale white spots on the same leaf closer to the stem.
Nute burn?
I have been giving her a misting with distilled water with a touch of liquid karma added. Otherwise looks healthy
None of my other plants have these spots.
hey there spiderdijon, yeah you've been doing a great job doing the misting, it's a great technique! thing is the little water dropplets will sort of collect on the leafs and if they dont evaporate quick enough, they'll make a "magnifier effect" and create a loupe combined with the light that will actually burn the leafs and create little markings like what you're seeing now. It's no major but just make sure the leafs are dry ish otherwise this can happen. hope this helps ! 🚀
She's still growing strong. Tallest of my 4 ladies in this run. A little worried her stem can't support her leaves, so moved her from the turbulent intake and added some garden wire to support her stem till it thickens up. Touch of nute of droplet lens burn still, she seems to be more likely to hold water on her levels after misting than my other plants.
I started LST this week, retied about every other day using a combo of twist wire and the more rigid bendy wire for staking down some branches.
I think I might have tied to close to the medium, so I am trying to correct that as I go.
I'm quite happy with the LST on this lady now, but could maybe expose some lower (potential) bud sites and nodes to light, but her early leaves are so bug now it's a little hard to do.
plenty of pistil popping, moving into pre flower. I'm pretty happy with the way the tops are coming in with the LST. Still my best performing lady of this grow.
This and all the other girls have got super thirsty. Drinking .5L a day now.
Some yellowed leaves at the bottom, I just trimmed them off. Not sure if it's a deficiency or because I trained her to early with the main stem to close to the ground
Why am I getting yellowed leaves at the bottom?
Not sure if it's a deficiency or because I trained her to early with the main stem to close to the ground, the bottom get splashed while watering and touch the soil
Your giving the right nutrients. I would say its your ph is out causing the plant not to be able to absorb the correct nutrition. With coco your ph range is 5.5 to 6.5 with 5.8 to 6.2 being optimum.
i removed my LST ties as i will be away for 2 weeks over Xams/NY and didn't want it to dig into stems as they grow and stretch. Training is pretty much done at this stage anyway.
I also did some light lollipoping and defoliation of upper fan leaves to allow light penetration and air circulation as she moves into mid to late flower
Watered by a partner this week as I am away for Christmas, hence the slightly different photo style.
Can't comment much more than what's in the pic. But she looks healthy enough
I've been away for Christmas so left these to friends and partners to water. They couldn't come as often as every day though and this lady has suffered for it as she was in a very thirty part for her life cycle.
Considering how neglected she's been I'm quite happy with the bud growth here. They have filled out reasonably well and have nice structure. See picture with the PEZ dispenser for scale 😂
Most of the fan leaves have died off so I've pulled off all the dead stuff which I will throw away. Then trimmed off the really dry or curly look smaller fan leaves and sugar leaves around the buds and any smaller buds that would just end up popcorn anyway that. It has a decent amount of trichs I'll have a go at pressing this and see if I can get any fresh flower rosin, then throw the chips in my bag of trimmings I'm collecting this run to try my hand at bubble hash.
Under the mic, the bud trichomes are looking near 100% milky and really abundant. With just few amber stating to creep in.
I'm gonna flush this plant (I used 2L tap water this time) for a week or two then chop her. Once the amber's come in a bit more.
She still smells really fruity but initially a little musky/sour form the neglect and dead leaves , but that cleared up after this little trim job.
This plant grew strong from day 1, even weathered the neglect from me being on holiday pretty well.
grew well and weathered neglect well too, smelled amazing as soon as the trichs started to appear.
Looked great at the end. Just a tip to strengthen those stems...I keep a fan, close and low, blowing on my ladies enough to move them around but not give them whiplash. The constant movement caused by the airflow of the fans help to strengthen the stems. Great diary. Again, nice finish.
