Catova On Thursday added three seeds to 3 shot glasses of water. 24 hours later, moved to wet paper towel. Germinated Saturday but left in for another day to allow tail to develop to 1/4 inch. Planted in fox farm ocean forest with 20% perlite and sprouted on Tuesday.
Mephisto chreme de la cheme is showing some deficiencies. Should I flush and apply some 1/3 nutes with cal mag? First photo was taken today and the other was taken 3 days ago.
Your ppm is over 1700. I would feed just water till the finish and let her fade away. You will have some nice smooth smoke.

Catova Both cdlc and s#1 showing serious deficiencies. Watered last time with cal mag due to ppms being high. Flushed s#1 with cal mag and water, which corrected ph and ppm(1200) but developed issues the next day.
Is trichome development individual to each plant or can you determine how long it takes for trichomes to mature from cloudy to amber? Iβm trying to get 20% amber but not sure how many weeks I have left. First plant is cheme de la cheme by mephisto and second is skunk #1 freebie.
They will turn amber eventually. One plant might take a little longer than other plants, since no plant is indentical. From what I can see the trichromes are turning cloudy, so just a little more patience.
Yeah itβs always a bit different from plant to plant.. some strains just donβt amber much.
But itβs somewhat predictable with some variation in there.. youβre looking pretty good and cloudy and you should begin to see some Ambers pop up more and more, Iβd say youβll be harvesting in 2 weeks give or take. Autos are weird tho and Iβm not good at guessing them maturing as much.. skunk looks about ready in your diary pics tho.

Catova Flushed cdlc and s#1 both with 6 gallons of phd to 6.2 tap water which reduced ppms down to 300. Flushed Gc with 3 gallons of tap water and fish shit which reduced ppms to 800. Reduced light intensity from 100% to 85% due to plants showing light stress.
Catova Grew well first 8 weeks, but started to get degrade. Could have been unstable grow environment. Also turned purple due to cold night time temperatures.
@Catova π yeh mate that is Mold eeewwww
to save those buds you will need to act fast
#remove any affected material
#transfer the unaffected bud to a cardboard box or even a paper bag/s
# put it somewhere dry and airy preferably out of the light
# let it dry properly
πDO NOT SMOKE MOLDY WEED π
Catova Watered cdlc with un phd tap water. Gc may have another two weeks, so watered with phd tap water and epsom salt. Cdlc trichs are taking its time to get 20% amber.
Catova Got really bushy and would have been a good candidate to top. It was hard to water due to it being bushy, maybe some light defoliation might have helped. It developed some deficiencies in early flower due lack of cal mag supplied to it. Will try this strain again but in 5 gallon pot.
Looking good man! I would suggest perhaps raising your lights on temps during this phase of the grow. I am sure they are growing healthy but your growth rate will be affected by lower temps like this at this phase of development. for 300W lights, I would like to myself see them a bit closer to those plant tops. I would suggest if you do not have it already, Grab a PAR meter & a thermal heat gun to read the tops of those ladies and help push your lights to the maximum of their potential. I recommend these to all growers, Early flower up to weeks 4 through 6 depending on strain we like to aim for low to mid 80's to help form up nice big bud sites. After that period it is best to drop to low 80s mid-70s to form those buds uptight and dense. It is important to make sure your temps do not change more than 9 degrees in veg & early flower then after the plants are done growing vertically in flower you can widen that gap up to help dense the buds up more and develop more resin.
I would say those signs on the leafs are PH-related. There are good charts on the internet if you do some searching that will show you how if you go out of the sweet spot with your PH either low or high how it will begin to affect your plant's intake. I hope these tips help you out keep up the good work! If you get the time please make sure you check out my diary & give my profile a follow take care man and happy growing.
@Catova, I would honestly not recommend anything cheaper, it's not something you want to be messing with without absolute accuracy. I use the Apogee for reading my PAR. Although I would try and get the model that has a corded sensor attached to it. I originally got this one that I linked to you. However, it was by mistake on the shipper's part since I ordered the corded version but they sent me the cordless. But out of my experience of using both, I really recommend the corded over the cordless.

Just have in mind, how fungus spreads, it's air !!! Change cloth when you will sort this girl and put her safe and dry away to finish, cardboard box not bad idea, it doesn't look like all is infected, but you never know ... Still make wire strings and hang in smaller branches.
Use magnifying glass when they will dry out . Mold could be mistaken with thrichs.
Don't infect other girls !
