Hi, this is my second crop, the first one with auto.
Germination started on Sunday 21 August. I planted they today.
Santa Plantas's Indoor Mix substratum, mixed with 10% homemade compost of yerba mate, onions, carrots, etc.
The distance between the LED and the plants is 53 cm. Is it ok for the first week? I've read that a short distance in this stage is good to produce a not so tall plant.
It can be anywhere from 50 to 75 cm. It all depends on the light.Some led's are stronger then others.
Just watch the plants and if the stem gets long and they start stretching to much then its to high, If the leaves start pointing up and shape a V then it is to close.
Hola! Seguimos creciendo.
Ha comenzado la segunda semana de vegetación. Las plantas han crecido 2 cm, por ende la distancia al foco LED se ha acortado a 51 cm.
Esta semana aplicaremos por primera vez Deeper Underground de Top Crop.
Nos mantenemos en contacto!
Hola, aquí estamos en la tercera semana.
Vamos a regar con Deeper Underground. Evidentemente ha dado buenos resultados.
Es sorprendente lo que han crecido en una semana.
Espero sus comentarios!
1) you can start LSTing a plant as soon as it pops out of the soil.
2) you can add mycorrhizae that way, you can dust them on the outside of root balls, or add them into your medium when you mix it up. I don't think it really matters, to be honest.
3) do some research on what trichoderma eat before you add them. They are mycoparasitic, which means they are, well, parasitic to other fungi. They could become parasitic to the micorrhyzae.
I hope this helps.
Hello! I did an LST on the two tallest floors, leaving the smallest one as it was.
Week by week growth is impressive!
I added trichodermas in the irrigation, I am going to wait about 21 days until its new application.
I think it's time to start with Top Veg or similar. What do they say? Cheers!
Hi! This is the 5th vegetation week.
It's amaizing how the plants've growed.
I started adding Top Veg and mycorrhizae.
But i have noticed of some insects. They are like a big fly, with a long tail, all them black. What could it be?
See you!
Hi there
By the sounds of it just sounds like a random fly has managed to get in,
Get some of them sticky fly traps and hand them up around your area 👍
Best of luck 🌱
Hi! Brooklyn began to bloom, and Bananas keeps vegetating.
This are so strong that the LST yielded!
There is some pictures of the flies i found. They are really rare. I hop you can help me to understand what they are.
See you!
Your guess is as good as mine... question is, are you seeing any damage being done to the leaves of any of your plants? I would rather doubt it myself but still, I'd probably hand some sticky tape and try to get those two out of my grow..
Good luck..
Hi. I try to do an LST on the three plants, but the stem of one of them broke slightly, so I had to fix it with a tape. I hope he survives!
The Brooklyn is blooming, but the another two no.
See you!
Hello! The two species of Banana began to flower with greater intensity. I think I've gone past vegetation, but what's done is done.
I've defoliated a bit, and added a net to contain the growth.
These days I will upload the photos of the ninth week.
Cheers!
You are still 3 weeks or so away from harvest maturity.
Wait until there are 96-99% brown pistils before you harvest.
Unfortunately, your heavy defoliation may slow this even further...4-5 weeks maybe.
Less leave = less energy being made = less growth/maturation.
Hello! We have cut some buds from Brooklyn Sunrise, we left the rest because they are not there yet.
Huge buds are forming!
I think that in two weeks all the harvest will be ready!
