esko42started grow question 4y ago

Looking for some help here with the seedlings, they seem to look quite sad and drooping though Im not sure what is wrong, could this be caused by low temperatures? I dont believe it to be overwatering

Solved

Leaves. Curl down

Leaves. Twisted

I think you've overfed your ladies... that PPM is WAY out of range, even for the flowering stage... it needs to be down around 350 - 500! I would suggest you give them a bit of a flush - pour about 3/4 of a gallon of pH'd water through each of the pots and let them dry out. This will get rid of the excess nutes and should drop your PPM quite a bit but monitor what the PPM of the runoff is... I wouldn't feed them again for at least a week and then cut the nutes in half, see how they respond and go from there. The only other thing I will mention is that you don't say how close your lights are to them... but make sure they're about 18" above the plants... make the plant REACH for the light! Good luck!

esko42 Looking much better this week, this is about 10 days from the last check in where I was having issues. Found the culprit to be high ppm coco mix that I purchased pre buffered, tested the runoff to be around 600ppm when it should be the same or close to what I was putting in. When I transplant these ladies next I will rinse the coco first

esko42 Repotted this week into 5 gallon fabric pots and setup a tray to catch the runoff to make life a bit easier. Was a little worried of burning my girls and increased the nutrient strength slowly over the course of the week. Aiming to get to 900ppm by the end of this week. All have been topped and looking great though had some very mild cal-mag-fe deficiencies. Have added a cal mag supplement to the schedule and since then the girls have looked better. At this rate Im thinking the tent will fill out in 4-6 weeks, what do y'all think?!

esko42 Explosive growth this week! Have the environment set perfectly for the girls and they seem to be loving it. Topped the other plants this week and one plant for a second time since she has grown so much. Keeping with the LST on the two larger plants. Should have the tent nice and filled out within 3 weeks at this rate! Would love to time harvest at Christmas time

esko42 Week 5! Looking amazing this week, fixed a small calmag issue by increasing the dosage. Light defoliation earlier in the week but it seems the girls have filled back in already. Flip to flower this week!

esko42 Light defoliation before the flip to flower, should probably of defoliated more. Will be performing one final defoliation in 2 weeks to open up the canopy but want to avoid any stress to the plants for now and let them vibe. I am taking up to 5 leaves from each plant when I feed and they seem to be fine with this but will definitely need one heavy defoliation in week 3 of flower. Tent looks very full now, could this be a pound 3x3.. I hope

esko42 Week 2 of flower, looking very healthy and starting to drink a lot more now. Humidity is starting to become an issue often getting up to 80+ after watering and overnight. Going to think of some creative way to bring it down as I already have a dehumidifier running 24/7 + AC

esko42 flowers starting to come in now with a slight gassy smell. some trichomes starting to appear and overall looking super healthy. no sign of deficiencies! did a light defoliation earlier in the week and will take some larger ones over the next week then let it coast. I have seen mixed reports on the effectiveness of defoliation beyond helping with humidity and airflow. airflow is great in the tent so will continue with minimal defoliation

esko42 Had to hand the LED over the top bar's in the tent this week to get a bit of extra height. These girls stretched up so much!! Smell is out of this world! Looks like it will just be stacking flowers over the next few weeks until harvest. I have started with a PK boost using top booster from H&G. Though I am not sticking to the recommended amount, after doing some research I have decided to go with a lower dosage over a longer period. Will be stepping up the amount by 0.33ml/L each watering for 2 weeks then fading into flush. Lets see how this goes!!

Piernaslocasanswered grow question 4y ago

As your buddies have mentioned, it largely depends on the genetics and the environment, but there are tricks, buddy. For example, 24-48 hours of total darkness before the harvest, root washing with cold water can be beneficial stress techniques that might increase your trichomes. If you're still waiting for washing and harvesting, adding some molasses and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) could also boost your trichomes if you're not in the final phase yet. Good luck!

esko42 Each pheno is really starting to differentiate itself. Bud structure, smell and color is different in each plant! I can already tell which ones will be my favorite. One in the back smells so sweet!

esko42 Week 6 done!! on to week 7! these girls are coming along nicely, aroma from the tent is amazing and changes day by day. Some days I get hints of banana and cherry, other days it's very tropical and sweet. Only 2 weeks left on these! what a journey it has been, oh so rewarding too!!

esko42 Bit of a late upload, halfway through the 8th week now and almost onto the 9th week of slower from flip. The smell is extremely overpowering now, can definetly see where it gets the name cherry pie. Smells of sweet baked goods. Trichomes still have a bit of development left. on the 6th day of a flush without base nutrients. Only providing cal mag at this point. Planning to harvest in 6 days! What a journey it has been! From the way the buds look, Im very proud in how they turned out considering this is my first indoor grow/serious grow. Watch out Cookies there might be a new kid on the block 😉
