Day 42 / Week 6 Flower begins today -
22/12/2021.
EC - EC has been a little high, rising to as high as 1.9 overnight after approx 16hrs since last feed. Inflow is 1.3 and will probably remain there or even be backed off slightly to 1.2 until the plants show they require more as if it keeps rising I will have to lower the EC slightly. I believe it is the Ultimate PK sending the EC higher as that is the only thing that has changed. Still giving less than half of what mills suggest and the girls don’t seem to mind, if anything they are getting slightly overfed as above suggests.
Multifeeding - I am currently feeding every 4 hours, 2 hours after lights on and 2 hours before lights off for a total for 3 x per day, 2l per plant per feed. Always with 20% or greater runoff.
Defoliation - I am still only removing about 7-10 leaves per plant every 4 or 5 days if they are beginning to cover or shade bud sites below. If they are not causing issues, I won’t remove them as I don’t want to cause any unnecessary stress at this stage.
“LST” - The string is still attached from the “LST”, it does not seem to be affecting the plant and is keeping centre of the plants exposed pretty well so I’m trying to just keep the string on. As the weeks go on, if the branches require support instead of tying down, I will tie them up the frame of the tent probably.
Both girls buds are beginning to fatten up, especially along the main branches are becoming more developed and more colours are coming on MOP 2 which is the more purple and prettier of the two phenos (for now). Even the lower stuff on both girls is a lot larger than the last time so I’m happy already as I’d imagine the tops will be even larger and there is still approx 3 weeks / 21 days remaining.
Can’t wait to see how much more these progress in the coming weeks.
🙏🏻🤙🏻💚
Looking amazing buds my friend ✌️ my next grows definitely going to be more uniformed bro they'll be given of a beautiful citrus smell 🍊👊 staying tuned bro take care m8👍✌️👍
We’ll bro your plants look way better than mine so I’ll admit that. Your setup looks a lot more preplanned than mine as well. I’m hoping next run looks like this but not gonna get discouraged if it doesn’t. Will be doing indoor and outdoor harvest all throughout next year. Haven’t been able to grow up until now and I’m 31. Keep doing what you’re doing though cause it looks like you got some fire here lol
@dober151, honestly mate I haven’t a clue. I’m not sure if my timer was playing up, too much stress, over feeding from day 1 etc. Barneys is pretty reputable I’d imagine so think I just pushed em too far really mate haha. Not something I’d say is easily done haha but hey long as ya learn from it! Yeah I’ve heard bagseeds are more prone too! Wishing you all the best bro 🙏🏻🤙🏻💚
@CocoTheClown,
What do you think caused them to hermie? Genetics? I had a bunch turn male and one hermie. It was bagseed so I figured that could happen but I know I stressed them out too which didn’t help in the least
@dober151, exactly mate, we’re all here learning anyway gotta learn as you go pal! My last run hermied hence these two in a pinch, but the next run should be 4-5 of these! As long as your enjoying the growing mate that’s the main thing! 😁 this is only my 1st ( technically 2nd ) grow and I’m not too far away from you in terms of age lol gotta start somewhere! Thanks man I appreciate it! 🙏🏻🤙🏻💚
Bro they're coming on lovely now m8, 👍 lovely purple hues coming on the girls, you're going to get some big yield in a couple more weeks there bro, you deserve it pal you've waited long enough. I would definitely give them 8-9 weeks about 75-80 days that's what I would have done bro but an emergency situation came up bro if you know what I mean 🚔 so had to chop the girls down at week 8 day 59 was gutted pal didn't even have time to flush them bro, so the buds taste harsh in a bong 🤫 not to bad in a j like. Wish you nothing but good luck bro, can't wait to see the end results bro, watching eagerly my friend all the best to you and yours pal 👌👍🙏🇬🇧.
@Collinsy74, here’s the link mate, their obvs using a drip system but I just did the same thing but hand watering! > https://www.icmag.com/forum/marijuana-growing/growing-in-coco-coir/240496-a-few-things-that-i-ve-learned-about-growing-in-coco-with-a-drip-systm-dtw
@Collinsy74, nah mate I’m doing hand watering, 3 x per day once into late flower and I’m loving the results treating the coco as close to hydro as I can. If you google “icmag multifeeding coco, a few things I’ve learned” there’s a big older article mate and this run seems to be following what theirs did so must be working! It’s a pain feeding 3 x per day I’m just hoping come harvest day it pays off! 🤙🏻💚
@CannbellFarms, honestly mate it’s my first grow, but the Gavita has done above and beyond from other grows I’ve seen. If you check out my previous diary, the veg growth is crazy under the Gavita, this run was vegged under a 300w so not as vigorous but still happy! Hoping the harvest is as amazing as the veg growth but I’ll keep ya posted! 😁 defo the best light I’ve seen ( as a novice) lol. 🙏🏻💚
@CocoTheClown,I bet man hahah, how are you liking the Gavita by the way? Looking at upgrading at some point to either Luxx or Lumatek, loving the drainage MacGyver also hahahah
Great training👍
Clean glow room👏
I think your grow lights will definitely make powerful and huge buds!
I use the same grow lights and was amazed at the tremendous yield!
@CocoTheClown,
Yes, I used Gavita1700e in my last run👍
I am very pleased with the yield, which exceeded my expectations😁
I hope your grow this time will be great!😎
How did you manage to get the stalks that large so quickly? I was doing photos, then autos for a while, and now moving back to photos so I can play with my clones. I am ready to grow a beast! Just popped 3 blueberry muffin x watermelon from Humbolt Seed Company non fem. Hopefully one will turn out a nice big female!
@VT__Homegrown_Fun, I’ll be honest with ya mate, I think it’s purely a mix of the light, genetics, medium and feed in using.
This is my first grow ( I have a diary before take a look at the stems on that too, that was my true first grow) and I have been feeding twice a day since like week 2 in veg in 70/30 coco perlite mix with the Mills Nutrient full range, I’m using half the base nutes mills tell me too, but never had an issue with deficiency or EC in this run. Both of the grows had huge storks like that, I dunno if it something I’m doing due to being a novice but if it is i ain’t aware of it 😂
All the best bro hoping for all females for you! That strain sounds dank! These were only vegged 5 weeks with a 300w on like 50% dimmed so yeah lol you’ll smash it bro 🤙🏻🙏🏻💚
@Ju_Bps, thanks mate!
Nope these two were vegged and with 4 others which were later killed, under a 300w at 60% so could have been better lol. Not too long mate really!
Thanks mate same to you! 🙏🏻🤙🏻💚
