Weeks start on Saturdays, so today is the start of week 5 since 12/12. My maintenance plan is as follows…..
Daily: fill reservoirs with 1250 ppm nutrients / 6.3 ph
Weekly: check reservoir ph and ppm levels
Every other week: empty and clean reservoirs
Sunday: observing some deficiency on the lower leaves, guessing potassium deficiency based on grow weed easy resource. Adding 5ml/g of liquid koolbloom to feed.
Wednesday. Adjusted reservoir ppm. Was at 1610ppm when I checked it and 6.7 ppm.
Added lower ppm mixture and RO water to lower reservoir ppm to 1250. Topped off reservoir.
Seeing a potential potassium deficiency on this plant too, so adding back liquid Koolbloom at 4ml/ g. (0-10-10)
@@T_Dub, Nice.
Yeah, I got a buddy who refuses to flush, the only crops he has had fail was when he did. He ended up getting bud rot on the flushed crop. Has not flushed since, he never had another problem with bud rot, and the difference in quality was not a lot after curing.
@gREEn7o0, thanks! I don’t flush…..I’m one of those people who don’t think there’s any benefit to flushing. I do give them a good long dry and cure though.
@@@T_Dub, I use dry nutrients so I wouldn't go with smaller pots but with liquid nutrients you can get away with the smaller ones you just have to water more often.
As for scrog I've never done it because of my back problems it's to hard for me to get under the net. I do most of my autos the same, I top above the 5th node (set of branches) and push n pull the remaining branches to keep them from under the ones above them. If that makes sense.
I think you can do 2 or 3 in there because in my experience smaller pots make smaller plants, but they could get big without notice 😆
@Cyrusdavirus, thank you.
She’s coming along beautifully.
May I pick your brain Cyrus?? What do you think of growing two autos in a 2x2x4 tent in 2 gallon pots.
Is that a reasonable expectation, or do I need larger pots and fewer plants?
I’m looking at the Gorilla Cookies auto that you recently grew. I could scrog them if that’s an acceptable training technique with autos. (I’m still researching autos, but SCROG seems OK.) Thanks in advance for your help.
@Cyrusdavirus, she’s taken on the shape of an attractive shrubbery. 😝. But she is a beautiful strain….I enjoyed growing her. Looking forward to smoking her next to the Godfather OG and Purple Ghost Candy to see which ones I like best. Hope you are doing well Cyrus.
@Seedsman,
Thank you. Your LA Peyote Kush and Purple Ghost Candy are both a pleasure to grow. They really accepted the quadline training and LST quite well. 🙏
