Trying out a second run of these Autos to hopefully understand and determine what went wrong with the first run. Hypothesis is that the additional Dolomite Lime created nutrient lockout by elevating the soil PH....so this time round I will be simplifying the medium to just Fox Farm Ocean Forest and Perlite to start. We will then see if the plants are (hopefully) not as stunted as the first run. Fingers crossed...

Put these youngsters in the tent with some more mature plants and burned them a bit so pulled them back out. They then proceeded to show little to no growth. Wasn't sure what to make of it...forced patience I suppose.

Day 34 was a sad day for PK3. Should have moved her to a bigger pot earlier. I will now suffer the consequences...

Fucking hell week 6 of veg. These are gd autos. Something set these girls back early on...maybe it was the light burn. I dunno man. I think PK3 was either getting too dry or losing nutrients in that small pot, or both. Those leaves are drooping and stiff...so I said fuck it and topped her. More to come next week...

Grow Questions

JimboNormanstarted grow question 2 years ago
Got some major clawing and brown edge action here. Anyone seen this before? I'm in FFOF with 20% EWC and 20% perlite...not really convinced this is nute burn, even though it looks like it...leaning more toward light/heat burn. Using the SF2000 and had it at 60% roughly 20in above

I agree with Roberts. Check the below website for leaves issue. https://www.growweedeasy.com/what-causes-cannabis-leaves-to-curl-up I did grow same genetic, nice colours and good smoke. growdiaries.com/diaries/91018-seedsman-purple-kush-cbd-auto-grow-journal-by-iloveweed-93 Below is just quick tips to check when growing. Get free APP to measure LED Lux ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doggoapps.luxlight&hl=en_GB&gl=US&pli=1 ) Light • Clone and seedling stage: 5,000–7,000 lux • Vegetative stage: 15,000–50,000 lux • Flowering stage: 45,000–65,000 lux Ph Soil pH range: 6.0–6.ph. 6.5ph is sweet spot Temp Temperatures of around 20-25ºC with a humidity level around 65-70% gives good results for cannabis seedlings. Humidity levels around 60-75% deliver solid veg growth. Perfect EC level for cannabis plants is around 0.5-0.8 until around 13/15 days after germinating. This should be progressively increased to 1.1 towards the end of the growth period. During the bloom stage you’ll need to increase this, as your plants will need more nutrients. You should keep the EC between 1.2 and 1.5, keeping it there until the fattening period, where you should increase it to 1.8/2.1 – this is the highest it should ever be. Remove

plants looking pretty fucked up due to water PH being too high. it's about 9 and I forgot to lower it so these plants let me know they were not happy. I added some Roots Organic Elemental for good measure after moderate flushing.

I guess we're finally in flower now. That took forever, jeez. Not confident in the final yield with the massive delay in veg. oh well. Adjusted the PH and plants responded well. Short week due to traveling for Thanksgiving. More to come...

Week 13. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

8/10

Nice mellow indica. Barely registering much THC this batch but I made a number of beginner errors that stunted early growth so it's likely due to my own mistakes. Super fruity flavor in the vape so it's nice to blend with other strains when you want a little cocktail flavor.

Had to let the grow finish a little longer than necessary due to a 10-day vacation but I don't think that had a negative impact, particularly since it's an indica varietal. Noticed a bit of WPM on one or two lower buds that likely didn't receive enough airflow so lost a bit of the harvest to tossing those out before drying and curing. Kept a close eye on the rest and no spreading occurred. All in all, I made a number of fuckups early on that stunted veg growth but these seeds were effectively freebees so they were perfect for new grower fuckups. 👍
