Another week another grow, trying to get a perpetual harvest going so this is basically same setup as my other grow.
Auto Sour Diesel from MSNL, quick to germinate in only 2 days, no transplanting was used was placed direct in 3gal fabric pot.
SunGro Sunshine mix was used as the medium, i mixed in extra perlite for more drainage then added to a little cal-mag powder and a couple grain blau korn an mixed it all up.
Germination was under Bloomspect 600W at 2ft for a week then straight to tent under the Viparspectra.
Let's see how this one goes, any tips and constructive criticism as usual are very appreciated an welcome!
So far so good, vigorous growth, only a very small dose of cal-mag and silica boost to strenghthen her.
When she dries out gonna follow up with small first dose FFBB and normal bloomcity stuff for the rest of the week.
Next week will get first and probably only dose of FFGB.
Little sour diesel coming up nice. Think i have to start feeding less water or maybe this pot is too small.
Seeing some small preflowers appearing so only short window for giving FFGB, probably only one more feeding of FFGB but don't want to cause nute burn.
Given suspected lack of nitrogen on last grow even with BC Cal-Mag being fed throughout i'm not sure how to proceed with this next plant as i don't want it suffer from premature yellowing as well.
What's the best way to use FF Trio with autoflowers?
I'm suffering either nute deficiences, burn or lockout based on what i do an just can't seem to get it right, lol.
Any suggestions on what works with you my grow mates?
Want to get it right with this plant or at least try to!
Take it extremely slowly with the FF trio. I had burning issues running it at 1/3 strength with photos.
Their recommendations for dosing are crazy. At this stage I’d go 2-3 ml gro, 3-4 ml TB, 5-10 ml BB (per gallon) see what that gives you for an EC. Also be aware that tiger bloom tanks your pH if you use more than 5mL in my experience
One more related noob question, given autos have such a shortlifetime i find the FFGB is only used twice before switch to FFTB as the flowers appear so quickly.
Is it that the two can be mixed in the first few weeks of flowering and what point should i cut off the FFGB?
Adjusted the lamp a bit and started feeding FFTB half half with FFGB. Everything seems to be going fine. Trying my best to get no nutrient burn this time around using FF and Bloom City.
Well this baby took main spot in the tent after the eviction of his grow mate. So far so good except what seems to be a deficiency or lock out issue, see pics.
Either way taking it easy for now as it just two giant fan leaves that have the issue for now.
Stay safe out there grow mates!
hey bros so i seem to be struggling with some form of deficiency or lock out, i'm gonna flush with very light feeding and hopefully start again.
apologies for the late update its been a helluva week an didn't have the time to nurture my babiess and they got even more sick looking 😩
Not such a good week for the ladies as you can see. Yellowing all over much as well confirmed, lots of leaves dropping.
Advice of the sages seem to point to PH issues with the medium. may be to late to save but will still try to get something from the plant.
Lessons learnt -> Don't even add Cal-Mag when you use to tap water in peat and to more closely monitor the PH of runoff to see potential problem regularly.
As with my other grow, i seemed to have nailed the problem one cent for all by fixing the medium, despite the look of the leaves not a single one again has dropped and all are healthily praying and things seems to have stabalized and things are getting quite frosty. I'm not sure if it will fatten up after the problems during flowering but it smelling great an a few trichs have started turning cloudy.
All the buds, albeit on the small size due to earlier probs, are really frosty and smells fruity which is weird as its sour diesel lol.
Under the scope a few of the trichs are amber, this will be last week i leave her, going for cut next Sunday and planting another seed today to replace it so stay tuned to this perpetual harvest.
Got some new soil and new techniques lets see if i can avoid the mistakes of this one.
Plant just about done, placed in dark two days ago, gonna chop today. They buds were quite resinuous and very chunky despite the issues.
Just a week or so dry, normally shorter, and i would have a next one under my belt!
Happy Growin all, learn from mistakes an may you have bountiful crops :D
