Not getting off to the best start in terms of conditions. The heatwave is keeping temps far too high and the humidity too low, So how this grow goes we shall see.
I now have air-domes in the bottom of the pots to aid better oxygen to the roots. Plus I swapped out the 600w led for a 1200w led. Again just a cheap generic ‘eBay special’ till I throw some money at a decently setup.
Growing at a nice pace currently. Kept the fan on the plants constantly which has helped with cooling and strengthening. Temps should begin to drop now as the weather is changing and a good rain should see the humidity rise to a better level.
I’ve been a bit behind with the updates but I’m back on track now. It’s the end of week 3 today and the photos I’ve taken just now. This plant is growing a little slower than the others and the leaves have almost a two toned look about them. Not sure what’s attributing to this right now so if you think you know please comment. Other than that it’s doing alright
Seen some good growth in the last week. Temps have been a little high on the odd day but otherwise mostly where I’d like to see them.
Now going to start adding DutchPro Explode in a small quantity as the plants get ready to flower.
DutchPro Keep It Clean is working well in keeping the water tank clean and clear. Before I’d have to clean it out before refilling every time as the water would be cloudy and the neuts would leave a white residue all up the sides. There’s only a small amount of residue now but the water remains nice and clear.
Another good week of growth seen with the side branches growing up evenly around the main stem. Pre flowering is under way but I expect to see a big stretch in the next week or two before all the plants energy goes into calyx growth
Straight up growth again this week. Will start to trim around the bottom of the plant and get rid of anything that isn’t going to amount to much and only waste the plants energy. This will also promote good air flow.
Another week with a large amount of vertical growth. Some of the side branches are trying to rival the main stem lol bud sites are making themselves well known now so I’ve upped the amount of explode in the feed.
I gave the bottom of the plant a good clear out of all the small buds etc to allow all the energy to go into the top buds. Also backed off the Dutch pro explode a little as the tangerine dream and royal creamatic are showing too much neutrient burn.
Going well so far although I have noticed the bud size is falling behind a little compared to the other two strains. Could just be the strain or could see a bigger burst of growth coming.
Coming close to the end of this grow now and it’s been a breeze so far. Most of the trichomes are milky so just keeping an eye out for those ambers before I start thinking about flushing 👍🏻
Not seeing much new growth now and the trichomes are mostly milky so once I’m happy the ambers are coming I will start to flush. Buds feel dense and are nice and sticky at this point
@Black_Magic, it’s mostly coming from the led to be honest lol. I hold my led glasses over the camera lense to filter it out but these buds seem to catch the light too much. Must be the amount of trichomes on them
@ToadieK,
They are mottled yes and I’m not sure if it’s down to the temps and humidity being out recently or a neut issue. But it’s affecting grow I think as the other two are visibly bigger now
Hows her trichomes looking? Got anything to check them? I just use a jewelers loupe with led light on it to check my plants when they're that close to see what's going on, whether clear or cloudy or turning amber.
@AutoKing, Mostly cloudy with a few ambers. I use the same thing to check them. They’re all on straight ph’d water now so once I’m happy with the trichomes I’ll cut them down. Looking at a week tops now
