Plant went right through 400ppm of nutrients in 2 days. This caused the pH to drop, which is why the plant looks droopy in the first photos this week. Going to give it a bit more tomorrow. Roots look great! Pistils clearly visible. Healthy plant! SMELLS SOUR! π
@@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, I love it here too. I wish my friends were growers, I'm dying to meet someone to talk ph levels and nutrients, and soil vs soilless. Unfortunately I don't have a irl friend to chat with about it, but this is the next best thing!
@BeefWellingtons, hahaha! Build-A-Bush π€£π³ Thatβs what I love about this community...everyone learns and helps each other. When I tell my friends to hit me up on social media, I mean GrowDiaries. π¨βπ¬π»
@MaryJaneUSA, thanks so much, brother! This is my 3rd full grow, I think. It might be my fourth, who can remember after you smoke all your crop? π Hydro is pretty simple...I follow recommended nutrient proportions and just watch the reservoir temperature, PPM, and pH. Does the rest itself! We could use a few more DWC growers on this site!! π
Another successful harvest on the grow diary platform π
She looked fantastic pre harvest. Some huge flowers, great structure and a fantastic root zone.
I always say healthy roots = Healthy and productive plant's π
Let her dry slow and give her a nice cure then you will have some pure π₯ to smoke π₯
All the best and thank you for a great Dinafem diary on this great platform βοΈ
Mark..
I'm loving it! Short plant, with very close bud sites! I'm thinking I'll have to do a bit more defoliation soon to give more air and space.
Really diggin' this strain! Smells great! Growing well and handling any minor issues thrown at it!
Thanks for following, Mark!
I'll be doing some more Dinafem next round!

@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, You did a great job which helped open the plant canopy up allowing for much deeper light penetration to those valuable budsites π
Nice work my friend π
All the best βοΈ

@DinafemSeeds, Hi Mark! I did some major defoliation on day 62 - let me know what you think. It was a pretty drastic difference, though that didnβt translate as well in the pictures. I did very minor HST to bend the stems outward and open them up for air. Iβm using a PerfectSun LED Mini, so I think I have good light penetration. Let me know if you think it needs even more defoliation. I appreciate your input!
@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, Its my pleasure to follow along and great to hear that you'll be doing more Dinafem strains next time π
Can you do anymore LST and defoliation? I think this will help dramatically π
Looking good buddy π
All the best βοΈ
Mark..
Another AutoDinafem adventure up and running on the grow diary platform π
Good luck with our sour diesel auto my friend, we will be watching with interest βοΈ
All the best
Mark..
@@Chi_Town_White_Boy, Auto sour diesel will be perfect topped and trained. This will get the most potential out of the plant mate π
Some nice growth over the last week and if I was you I would start the LST π get as many budsites exposed as possible π
Now this is getting interesting,
Thanks for the diary update mate I'll drop back in on the next π
All the best
Mark..
Hi Mark! (@DinafemSeeds)
I'm stoked about this grow and am hoping to channel all of my experience into making this an awesome grow. By time this plant gets to week 4 or so, it will likely have the tent all to itself. Any recommendations on topping/training? I like to top, even if it means a week or two delay... Would love your input!
@CommanderCannabis, it can be a little tricky guessing! There are so many leaves on this, but it's all looking pretty healthy. I should also add that of all my plants, this is the only one using a Perfect SUN LED (http://perfectsunled.com). I'm running some testing on different lights -- I have to say, the Perfect SUN has performed really well. I also bought a cheap app to compare spectrums. While it is in NO WAY scientific or super accurate, it does provide a baseline for the lights. The Perfect SUN KILLS the other LEDs I'm using right now. We'll see what kind of results I get! Thanks for checking my grow, comrade! π
@Kingseeds, Thank you thank you! I'm really interested in how low this plant sits -- it's so short! I love it though, great and even distribution of buds. Hoping to get a nice yield of this strain! Should be a staple of everyone's diet! πͺ
@MrPlow, thanks brother! You have quite the setup coming online! Looks like youβre gonna have your hands full! Will definitely follow your grow. Youβre right - not many DWC ambassadors here! Good luck with your current ladies!! π±π
hey man if you dont mind me asking what type of aerator do you use i have i have the spider tech aerator which i love but the pic of your buckets the aeration is insane what type air pump?
@Chaos85, I use a Vivosun industrial pump. I think Iβm using the 1110gph pump, with 8 outlets. Each bucket has four 4β air stones. Itβs a bit much when the plants are young but when the roots start massing up its great!
@CommanderCannabis, thanks so much Commander! Someone of your high ranking doesnβt usually compliment my work! π³π itβs all trial-by-error to me!!
