Placed seeds in Mother Earth coco coir popped out of soil with 4 days
Weeks 1-3 of seedling stage put in final pot at last week before veg.
They both had a rough start between over watering and too much nutes to lighting issues but finally set to to begin a health veg hopefully
Off to a great start of veg. Airflow, temp, rh, light intensity all good. Need to check ph of soil before next feeding. Added Alexa to the room for some tunes and didn’t want to leave them. Topped ice cool at 1st node, bubba showing since of over water with curled leaves also much less growth than ice cool cbd.
What is the ideal temp and rh for week 1 veg? Specifically bubba kush and ice cool cbd. Also how to maintain that environment, I don’t leave my filter/ fan on because I don’t want the rh to get to low. I have a heater that shut off at a certain temp. What’s causing leaves to curl
Hey there Herban , so what's making the leafs curl is issues in the root zone, probably a bit of moisture stuck around that plant for a bit too long, that can happen sometimes with corner plants . if you follow a stricter wet/dry cycle by for example not watering quite so much or as frequently then you should be fine. If the problem persists you want to fix the problem roots with something like an additive for example humic acid. For the ideal temperature that depends on the humidity for the ideal humidity that depends on the temperature. this is regulated by VPD, you want something like optimal VPD which is 1.1 . Hope this helps ! 🚀
What are other nutrients for better overall plant nutrients during week 3 of veg using happy frog soil and fox far grow big and big bloom and botanic care cal mag.
I mean the FF trio will work just fine.. you have to 1/4 or 1/3 dose it even with photoperiods. The doses are extremely high on the bottle and schedule provided. You’ve got cal mag also which I would have recommended if you weren’t using it.
Plants look healthy and good size for week 3..
Highly recommend using a EC meter and pH meter to monitor feedings.
Be careful when you start using tiger bloom it’s quite acidic and can easily push your pH below 6 once mixed up, another reason to monitor and adjust pH each feeding.
This is week five of veg and according to the fox farm feeding it says to use sledge hammer flush. Is it needed to use or can I start adding my tiger bloom for flower?
The flush is to remove excess salts from the soil. Giving the bloom nutes a fresh start... It is really up to you, If you have been using the nutes at recommended dose then I would say use it. If you have been reducing the amount, say half recommended dose I may not use it as wouldn't think enough salts have built up to make a difference. Although over the time span of a grow maybe... Your plant, your choice. Its all a learning curve...Good luck
It looks like it started flowering already I haven’t changed the light cycle from 18-6 yet but I did have a day where my power went out earlier for about an hr. Seeds came from a hermed plant also and are only 4 weeks old one of the plants def has flower signs.
Never grow seeds from hermie plants, they have screwy genetics.
One hour of darkness will not induce flowering.
You can't get autos from photoperiod plants.
Last week of veg flipped to flower mid week plants starting to stretch
Dec. 30th first day of 12/12 light cycle.
Took a total of 9weeks and two days from seed to first day of bloom.
Would it be beneficial to transplant from solo cup to 3gallon if it already started to flower? They were seeds from a herm and turned out auto flower. They are 5 weeks old and have buds already but I didn’t get a chance to put in final pot before it started to flower automaticall
If it get stressed/shocked by the transplant it also may Hermi on you, this is on top of being from a Hermi plant originally. You really should not be growing out those seeds. It's bad genetics. The likelihood of the seeds of a Hermi plant "your old plant" going Hermi again next generation "current plant" is high. and it only continues and get reinforced the more you grow it out and its exposure to stresses.
Two options:
1) leave it, toss any seeds you get from it should it make any.
OR
2) do a transplant, take the risk and see what happens. Don't expect it to get as big as the others and be prepared for problems, at worst failure. Use every tool at your disposal to prevent extra stress. inoculations of fungi or bacteria can help a lot.
Best of luck
Cbd plant has a nice scent to it as it’s buds are starting to get bigger and more trichromes plants need feeding more often at least once every other day still feeding with half the recommend amount.
It’s the start of week 4 of flower, plants are on autopilot just watering and feeding every other day maintaining clean and ideal growing conditions in the tent. To keep humidity down I have to leave the tent open a little bit trying my best not to let any light leak in during dark time.
Welcome to week 5 of flower. Bubba is about 32in tall and ice cool about 20 in. Looks good and healthy more than half way finished now.
After feeding plants showing minor nutrient burn at tips. Gonna water with ph water only for rest of week.
What’s happening with the tips of the leaves? This was a day after feeding big bloom and tiger bloom along with cal mag at the recommend amount on bottles.
Yeah your nutes were way too strong.. just use plain water that you have PHed and just use that for the next week. Or flush the soil but thats messy...She may look a bit stressed for a few days but plain old water for a week to even two weeks wont hurt her at all and will allow her to use up all up...Actually PPM that high Make it two weeks with plain water then run 1/2 strength nutes after that. 1200 PPM Max ok. I rarely use more than 1000PPM unless im treating a deficiency and never have issues.
I took theses clones and planted one seedling green crack. After 4 weeks of growing it’s been really slow growth and all the clones started flowering. Just today I realized it was on 12 and 12 I just changed to 18 and six will my clones start to veg again?
They are going to go though a transition and will go back into veg assuming they are photoperiods.
They will start growing out of the buds and looking a bit weird but they should come back.
The seedling will also be fine, the plant will not be mature enough to even make flower till aorund week 5 of 12/12 from seed.
Give them some feed like a grow and micro if you have them later on.
Best of Luck!
I’ve been working to keep the ladies in the best growing conditions. The temperature and humidity stays at an optimum range. With the last feeding I added to much causing the tips of the leaves to change. So I’ve been watering only, no nutrients. Ill be feeding for one more week than flush.
Also added a trellis net just in case the what time grow even bigger. So far very happy with the genetics I’m growing and everything I’m learning about it!
Week 6 day 3- feed plants with 1100 ppm grow big tiger bloom cal mag and big bloom ph 6.2 also added dehumidifier and wiped down tent. One more feeding when the soil dries up then flush for harvest!
This is week 7 plants are looking and smells amazing. Did minor defoliation along with flush with 1 gallon each. Now two weeks max until harvest . Trichromes are already looking cloudy with some amber so may be able to chop ealier!
Day 55 of flower still flushing with water only trichomes look mostly cloudy with some amber on sugar leaves. Trying to maintain 75 f 50-55 rh and lowered light intensity.
Week 8 of flower and ladies are really becoming more dense and frosting all little more. Thanks to the growmies and the experienced gardeners here I’ve decided to patiently wait to harvest until at least 65 days of flower to get the maximum potential from theses two strains. Much love and appreciation to this helpful growing community and look forward finishing up this run
Day 57- final week until harvest letting pots dry out and waiting for those beautiful fall color.
Day 60- pots drying quick, max of 5 days left until harvest trichomes increasing as the day go on
So far this run has been pretty easy I can say I’ve learned so much and gained a lot of experience. My biggest take away would be examine and care for plant each and every day if possible things can change daily and to insure health you have to give them all the attention they need.
Went 60 days into flower could have possibly went longer but I felt like it’s where I wanted it to be also just couldn’t wait any longer. Overall great grow a lot of challenges but with the help of this site and my own research I’m happy with the results. I will weigh after drying and trimming
