This is my very first time growing! I want to learn a lot of you.
During the germination i had a couple of problems. From a total of 4 seeds, just 1 survive. I use the OVNI method, but i think that i forgot to mantein the humidity level high. I planted it in a pot, inside the kitchen where the sun barely hit it, this is why the stem lengthened so much. Outside it was cold and i still did not have the indoor. It will have been about 10 days like that.
Then i realized that the light was too far and I tied the plant so it does not break. Yes, I know it is very sad, but just wait.😻
I transplated it in a bigger pot in the last day of the week.
Since i reduced the distance between my plant and the lights, it was much better.
These fertilizers are not known but they were the ones that had. I live in a country that is hard to get good stuff.
I used them one o twice per week.
This beautiful plant keep growing very well and it started to produce a small amount of smell.
This week i done the first topping on the main stem (as you can see in the video). I put a little bit of melted candle on the cut, that is why you can see some white things. I have done this to dont let in any bacterias or fungus.
I transplanted it in the biggest pot that i had (16l)😍
I finally found a fan! (a little bit bigger than i expected, but it works really well).
Everything was going good, so i started to think how to get the best profit from the grow, and i decided to do the Scrog technique.👽
I installed the mesh to do Scrog with normal thread and i have done some topping in secundary stems.
Everything was fine, but the smell was getting much stronger, so i started to think to install an extractor with a smell filter.
This week i decided to let the plant grow as much as possible, until it occupies most of the horizontal surface of the interior.
The smell became stronger and stronger, so I did not even want to imagine when it goes to flowering. (Smell is a problem because i have my bed next to the indoor💩💤)
"Plantita" (this is how i call her) was growing well so far. There were no problems to report.
The only thing was the strong smell, it was getting me a little bit nervous. This, added to the noise produced by the light during 18 hours, is hard.😵
But i can not complain, this seems going really well and it makes me happy.
Finally! Plantita goes to bloom. It is a pleasure for me, first because i can sleep better than before with the vegetative photoperiod and second because we are closer to get our beautiful flowers 😍.
I stopped to fertilize with those ones to start the next week with a new one made specially for this stage.
I bought the extractor! My life really change. I used a zeolite filter and it worked really well.
I found some old leafs getting dry from the main stem. I dont know why happened that, but i think that is a normal thing. I dont find any microbe or something strange on both sides.
I was really worry about my flowers! i didnt see any. But then they started to appear, the top of some stems changed their colour to a more brighter green.
I increased the concentration of the fertilizer to 4 ml/l.✊
Plantita keep growing very good. Now the flowers are evident. Some leafs from the botton started to fall. Nothing weird to report. I have to move my clones to a vegetative photoperiod.
Im super excited with the results so far 😍😍😍
I realized that most of the leafs and stems that dont have any flower near are drying. Is this normal?
I keep watering once every two days.
I think that buds are not growing too much. Maybe it is because an overfeeding problem, or maybe it is a pH or EC problem. I will let her grow until i see mature trichomes.
Hi there!
In the next grow ill use the lollipop technique for sure because there is a lot of mini buds at the botton on the plant that arent getting enough light to get fat.
There is some serius signals of overfeeding, but ill try to adjust it in this week.👻
Happy growing! Btw remove ur plant from there and plant it deeper it will make roots out of stem and it is going to solve the early atretch problem a bit.
If u up to w8 for a few hours more and u are confident in your genetics throw the seeds right into soil. Water it once to be moist, but not to be mud. The pot should be small to prevent root problems as you have better control over watering and if the excess water will be there for a long time your roots will die of rot and lack of oxygen. The only thing about lack of light during germination is to prevent light conract with roots and mb dry layer of soil. Your next move might be buying silica, for example, rhino skin from an to make them more tolerable to stress and make the stem fat. If the temperatures are too low it will slow down photosynthesis.
I really appreciate your contribution. I found this https://www.rollitup.org/t/joeys-scrog-lollipopping-technique.924758/ and I think that is perfect to improve the grow, I'll use it in my next grow! This could be the reason why I'll have a poor profit.
@Turbuhaler, for better results with scrog try to research lollipop. Scrog allows you even canopy for even light penetration. You will not get anywhere with leaves that are below certain level, because those nodes just don't get enough light for anything, however, the plant still wastes its energy on them.
About defoliation, I am not certain, because I am trying scrog for the first time during next grow myself. After a certain period of time, u can also defoliate some fan leaves in flowering (aprx after 3 weeks), if ur plant is bushy. Sugar leaves- the ones on buds and close to them are much much more effective in photosynthesis, so its worth to leave them and expose them directly to the light because ur buds benefit from them much more and in flowering, we are growing buds, not branches.
@@dudsti,
thank you dudsti! it is nice to know that if it happens again. I still have to upload the full following, because i am 6th week of bloom! So, stay there to see how it grows!.
Looks good! Nice buds forming out there! However, even the sugar leaves are showing first signs of overfeeding. You have a nice growing area its worth getting ph and tds meter. With tds you can always find the sweet spot for your plants with any nutrients. When there are signs of overfeeding you should keep an eye on buds to start flush in time otherwise they will taste bad and you have a nice grow.
first at all, thanks for use your time to give me those advises. Yes, it is true, i notice some spots of overfeeding. The next watering I'll use just filtered water. The true story is that I'm running out of money, so I can't afford the pH or EC. Maybe I'll have it to the next grow.
