Jmaninthemidde420 3 out of 3 sprouted so I’m def happy with the genetics of sweet seeds so I’m excited to see how they grow. I consider my self an above average grower. I went to my local community college for agriculture. I know about ph and basic botany. I can say I have grown some successful plants in the past with small problems in between and of course some unsuccessful grows mostly outdoor due to my climate. For those of you familiar with the term I am using potted hugel mounds(spelling may be wrong) it’s where you throw compost and worm castings at the bottom of the bucket so the roots stretch to the bottom. It really helps with root development.

Jmaninthemidde420 5 days since the the first seed sprouted out of the soil. Gave it a top feeding of oyster shells for calcium and nothing else this week.

Jmaninthemidde420 You may of noticed one of them is a little droopy and slightly yellow. I’m not too worried bc it’s not that bad but I don’t want it getting any worse. I believe it’s a PH problem bc I eye out how much apple cider vinegar to use as PH down. I used to own a commercial ph devise but only borrowed it. I roughly know how much to use but bc I have well water which is about 7.0. I did give it some oyster shells as nutrients but to all of them and only one looks weird. Hopefully is a mild PH problem or maybe over watered but plz lmk any educated guess with a reason y helps.
Jmaninthemidde420 Growing very rapidly will switch to flower at no later than the 5 week mark Added a fan so I give the other fan a break for a few min a day as well as other equipment(dehumidifier, light, ac unit, exhaust fan) I believe this maintains the life of the equipment. Just keep an eye on the environment while you give certain equipment breaks. Set a timer for no more than 5 min or you will regret forgetting you turned off any equipment.
Does anyone else use apple cider vinegar to PH the water? Someone said not to use any vinegar bc it evaporates faster than water and gets back to neutral. I read online the opposite and it makes great ph Down. I also find my plants both in my tent and my windowautoflowerishealthy
Hey Growmie,
Apple Cider Vinegar is an organic acid that can be used to lower the PH of the water. It is important to note that your PH will be unstable in soil particularly, as the water evaporates it’ll make the water more alkaline again which could cause problems for nutrient absorption in your plant. Only use vinegar in an emergency situation or you’ll cause damage to your plants.
Does anyone else think that yeast sugar and water makes a good co2 system. I put 2 in my 5x5 tent with 3 plants. Used a 5 gallon bucket with 1.5 gallons of water, 6 cups sugar, 2 packets instant yeast(should last 2 weeks b4 replacing ingredients)
I don't personally do this - or anything else to produce co2, honestly - but I've seen comments from a lot of folks who do and they say it works pretty well... I think m0use has practical experience here... I'll make sure to ask her to look at this question and give you her thoughts....
Good luck!
Jmaninthemidde420 Getting to the end mark here. Going to give it un sulfured molasses in 4 days and that’s it as far as any nutrients go. Will than give it 2 to maybe 3 weeks till harvest. Starting to have a good smell to it but it’s not intense yet. One more week should stink it up in the tent a bit. Not strong enough to describe the smell
Yet other than kush smell.

Jmaninthemidde420 Giving it plain ph water from here on out plants are getting a nice purple tint to it thanks to the colder temps I give it at night. Nugs are dense and frosty. Still not the strongest smelling plants but let’s it’s still got about 2 1/2 weeks to get bigger smellier and better overall

Jmaninthemidde420 Final 6 days. I’m giving a watering tomorrow and 2 days later than I will dry the plants out for 3 days with a 24-36 hour lights off cycle
Good pheno variation in these genetics as they are all the same strain. Definitely my best grow.
Ps. If y’all are interested in growing weed In the window than check out my “strawberry pie window grow”

Jmaninthemidde420 Final watering is today and I will dry it out 4 days with a 36 hour lights off cycle before drying
Almost forgot to say had started my light on 25% until every seed popped out of the soil than bumped it to 50%. Now they’re over one week old since sprouted out of the soil and it’s at 75% plus the corn light at the bottom. Idk the wattage of it but there is no way it’s over 150. I thought it was only 50 but I think it’s more. They market it as 300 watts but I’m that’s bs 😒 the viperspectra light is true 500 watts(not 450 couldn’t find the 500 one as a choice) anyway hope you all find them interesting. Also you should all check out my window auto grow with lights fans even a dehumidifier. Some of my highest quality plants have been window plants(with additional light and fans) I only recently started to ph the water and found it makes a huge diff. But I don’t have a ph meter anymore I just borrowed one and I just eye out how much apple cider vinegar to use and go by taste. If it’s slightly acidic it’s just about perfect. I have well water so the ph is about 7.0. A few “DROPS” of apple cider vinegar per cup is perfect but careful too much will burn the plant. Baking soda is a great ph up
Loving how you use nutrients on this grow. I never go into a grow without the owl Epsom salt + cal powder am going to start trying the organic route for cal..dolomite lime. You meant to mix it in with the soil and leave for a least a week or so before applying plants and then you can top dress as she grows up. It's the purest way to add cal releasing it slowly into your grow by way of this powder.
But, after to start giving all that fish shit and stuff that comes from the sea. Or even a molllases. So if you any home remedies shoot em over to me in a DM when you get a chance..
Good luck.
