Ran into a cal/mag def on 1/2 of scrog week 4 is week 2 too early to add tsp of cal/mag which would be better cal-mag 1-0-0 or cal-mag plus with iron 4-0-0 ?
image is week 5 post flush of prior grow prevent this on current grow week 2 starts in 2 days
It's not too early. Either cal/mag one will help solve your problem. Iron deficiency is typically seen as yellowing in leaves most notably in new shoots, so they probably don't need iron but it probably wouldn't hurt using the plus (which is 2-0-0 btw). It's a bit hard to understand your question but it sounds like you're mainly asking if week 2 is too early to supplement cal/mag.
If the plants look deficient, supplement. If you think the plants might be too young/small and can get burned, then I'd recommend just using half the amount and seeing how the plants respond. Usually though, in any case, if the plant looks visually deficient then you should supplement regardless of what week you're on (unless you're flushing the last few weeks or something)
Getting ready for 2nd feeding tomorrow next week starts cal/mag+
Imagine my surprise when I went to see what seeds I had and found out mI was missing 2 Godzilla cookies But somehow I gained 2 more Gelato. guess who is growing Godzilla cookies ?
start adding Cal/mag to the mix But I need to make sure they are thirsty might need a bit
Day 7 had planned on feeding todaY But if you look close you will notice my leaves look lighter or darker This is a sign of Overwatering as a seedling easy to fix just let it dry. there are different over-watering signs as the plant get older. over watering THE #$1 MISTAKE OF NEW GROWERS I can say this by experience. it is better to have your plant beg for water rather than Drowning it. I still have issues. when I started growing I would water every day I ran into issues of Nute lockout, starting to re-veg took me 120 days to grow autos that should have taken 7 weeks. Then *I started following a feeding and watering schedule water every other day feed on Thursdays and Sundays That gave me nute burn and cost a fortune in distilled water (I use tap water now with a PUR filter) the most valuable lesson I learned is "do not feed and water when you want to feed and water when your plant ask for it. when the top 2-3 inches are bone dry or yoiu notice them starting to wilt they are saying "Hey Dummy I'm hungry and thristy" Now I alternate feeding and water about every 3 to 4 days feed and water till you just start getting run off. then let dry out rinsae and repeat. today I did not feed them the top soil was to damp need another day or two.
day 10 They sure take off at this age , I make sure after I transdplan t after germination in to the final pot I name the girls the 2 for this Journasl are women of Rock Grace Slick and Courtney Love I am saving the names EVE and Danzek
DAY 11 man oh man they realy took off after the feeding you'll see in the picsl The girls were in a barren wasteland by the time I got to them tonight I had been watching waster since I over watered them last week . well I let the medium get too dry So I water them with a tsp of Molasses tonight about 2 liters/1/2 gal each until I got run off I should be able to wait 2 to 3 days between watering. it is somewhat tricky going from watering a solo cup for 2 weeks then going to a 5 gal pot. Remember I mentioned I am using Gro Pro Warriors from Hydro Pros .IO start with 12 oz mason jar and slowly add another 12 onces till Im up to 1/2 gal
Day 13 The girls are doing their job climbing for the top of the net the The 2 plants That are the main focus of this diaries are really the second half of a scrog grow I have a Herbies Gelato Auto and Herbies Gorilla Glue auto they are around day 60 I like this one pic and it kinda shows off my other plants
daY 14 STILL WAITING FOR THEM TO DRY I will go back to a 12 oz mason jar for watering when they are ready
Day 15 week 3 starts tomorrowI am starting the grow big tonight and work my way up to 2 tsp on week 4 so that is a werap on week 2
Is in ok to mix ff Big bloom the base nute of the FF trio and use it for 2 feedings. if I am mixing other nutes together I start fresh every time. The BB only sits around a week at most
Hey growmie
It depends on which nutes are in it.
When you used synthetic fertilizers then you can let it stay longer, 4-7 days.
When I use Organic fertilizer then just 1 day, if you let em stay longer you may got real problems.
Nice plant 😎👍
Good luck with your grow
Welcome to week 3
Day 16 after last night Im not going to post any pics tonight lets see what tomorrow looks like when they had a chance to suck up those nutes. One thing I did do is I added a cal/mag foliar spray I has a cal maG ISSUE on my older plants so I figured a little cal/mag on the leaves wont hurt anything (if you don't overdo it, as i LOOK BACK sry caps button locks, one thinbg that really plagues me is it seems during than of going into the stretch I seem to always have issue with a defienecy My week 7-plant from another current grow grow I waited to long to add cal/mag and lost a lot of leaves and it is hurting my buds But I have a Gorilla glue and a Gelato right next to each other the gorilla glue never had a issue while the gelato did strains do differ Like I learned last week gorilla glue has issues with phosphorus at the last half of flowering so I had to cut back on Bud enhancers and the black Lebanon I'm growing next is good in high temps and low humidity so remember so straiN IS THE SAME so research before you get seeds and grow what you are prepared for
I rambled enough tonight to make up for pics
Day 18 climbing for the net found out there are Name issues Gozilla cookies are supossed to be God Strain and Girl scout cookies But Herbie's strain is Gorilla glue#4 and Girl Scout cookie which by most other breeders is Gorilla Cookies. so the lesson here is always to check your Genetics. I am really concerned that many breeders and wanna-be breeders are going to do to Cannabis what dog Breeders did to pit bulls a lot of damage has been done to the pit bull breed due to overbreeding, inbreeding and cross-breeding Unless you spend a lot of money you dont know what you are getting I believe this will be the case with cannabis seeds
wHAT A HORRID WEEK PC was down since wed just got back on. I did top each plant 3 times the next 2 days the STRETCH began still have issue with Grace on the left she was a smaller seed she hasn't caught up to Courtney, now she was a big plump seed. this was a teaching moment for me from now on nice big fat seeds only she is25% bigger . I didn't add pics But I also harvested my last 2 . I will never grow another plant with out a scrog net. 2 plants (autos) I got every bit of -6 to 8 OZs wet after it dries I will have huge buds ok had to show a teaser of what these girls will be producing in 6 weeks
Till tomorrow
Stay stoned Farmer
wed week5 day 1 that smaller seed will not catch up interested it differ the highest yield. GOING TO HAVE A PRODUCTIVE WEEK GOING TO SHOW THE PROPER WAY TO DO A PRE-EMP[TIVE FLUSH SORRY CAP CANBT KEEP MY EYE OPEM GOOD NIGHT MY FELLOW STONER GROW FRIENDS
I was hoping for a big stretch this is my first time growing Godzilla cookies and I am not sure about the strain when I saw the start of pistils I was disappointed they may still be in stretch a lot more . Myu next grow is going to Photos not only do I get to manage ny veg they Produce a lot more bud Im allowed 4 plants my next will be with SSSC Black Lebanon and HINDU KUSH both excellent taste, buzz, and AND ORIGINALLY grown for hash
with week six the plants now get the full regiment
Big blooms
Grow big
Tiger bloom
cal mag
Purpinator
all feedings and watering are done between 6.3 -6.5 PH is one of the biggest causes of Defencincies and other issues I will be glad to start my SSSD Photo contest to grow
and even more I look forward to using Geo Flora Nutrients. No more mad scientist mixtures Just a little purpinator when I water I have a video coming out about Fox farm flush SLEDGE HAMMER
week seven in full flower everything working good made the transition to flower from veg. NO DEFENCEIES I have been struggling with the heat I like to keep my tent at 75 but on hot days I get in the 80s I add a 4" inline fan to pump cooler air into the tent .; and I have e an extra freezer where I keep frozen gallon jugs of water Placing 2 frozen jugs in the tent will lower the temp 3-5 degrees So on the hot day I can still stay right around 80. I am at full feeding not I started to add the fox farm bud enhancers 3 weeks of open sesame followed By 2 weeks of beastly buds and then finish with cha ching to get nice tight hard buds at the flower cycle when the flower starts wee use up most Nitrogen and and the plants need less and less BUT now they need the P and K of the NPK Phosphorous and potassium The FRox farm solubles supply that. so does the Purpinator so I need to watch out for a lockout so I will back off the purpinatror. The next 3 weeks will show me what to expect for Buds
It seem like SAuper Satiuca club Photo contest is out of reach seems my seeds have gotten lost in transit So I am going to go with NUKEHEAD SEEDS LAB Nuclear scary Bubbles est 30%thc and Blackberry Moon rocks 33% THC these are high quality seeds you might pay a little more but we will see what we get almost halfway there 5 weeks Ill get out the microscope and start looking for white and Amber trichomes
Having heat issues Inside the tent I hit 85 *F and I want to stay around 75*f in the dark I get down to 65-70 F what I been doing is using frozen Gallon jugs of water and putting 1 or 2 in the tent to cool it down . I was wondering if I could hang some dry ice from the top?
Fighting the same problems in an attic. My grow had initially been planned to finish much sooner, but was delayed as I kept killing my seeds.
I did note that you are still on 18/6, I switched to 12/12, not preferred but the average temps did drop a bit. That maybe a consideration if you are growing autos. I also added a homemade Co2 generator so they can deal with the higher temps. Raising the lights and dimming may also help. I wish my highs were 85F......cooler weather begins tomorrow and into the next couple of weeks.
Hope that is helpful.
Best of luck and curious if there are other options for you!
Increase air exchange or run co2. 82 to 83 is my max temps. I am hitting warmer now due to 100 degree days. I just run a ac unit in room air is drawn from.
If you keep the right degree of humidity that temperature is good for your little girls. PROPAG: 75% VEGETATIVE: 65% FLOWERING: 55%, better to be slightly above than below these values
bad week just getting over covid had a defense on 1 plant I believe it was a genetic issue rather than stretching out it grew with in not allowing light and air so I did a 3x flush followed by 1 gal of PH 6.3 and 1 tsp of cal mag plus I believe I had a molybdenum or magnesium issue. here is a very helpful chart that will let you diagnose and treat any issues https://dutch-passion.com/en/blog/a-visual-guide-to-cannabis-deficiencies-n987 I do have covid and am on the road to recovery this has been a tough grow be sure to check out the video. I did manage to get my temps in line 69*f light out 80* f with light on after 16 hrs. I dont belivbe I will be doing my Super Sativa seed club photo contest I never received the seeds they did off to send them out But there is no way I can go from seed to harvest in 110 days. so I will be changing my grow to a Halloween themed Nuclear Scary Bubbles and Blackberry moonrocks straight from the high quality genetics of NUKEHEAD seeds "anyone who grows Knows Nuke head stayt tuned for more fun to come
really rough week got nice hard buds filling out my mini cola are abouut 6 to 8 in long and all sticky and stinky
WOW DID i MISS THIS ONE they are ready for harvest white and amber all pistil red Ill show more pics at harvest
even though Both seeds came from the same pack one plant grew long fat indica buds while the other plant had Rockhard crystal covered Large marble size sativa buds. amazing how with hybrids you never know what to expect I give this grow a thumbs up but I made some mistakes and learned more lessons thx everyone stay stoned unless your driving
about 21 weeks into burping jars are running from 67 RH to 63RH burping 1 or 2 times a day Chlorophyll still in the jar but slowly going away have a couple of oz from my prior harvest so no rush I would rather smoke fully cured weed so for once I have enough pot to wait
