I watered my 11 liters pots with 3.5 liters of pHed water with voodoo juice and put them under the lights for 24 hours. Then put my seeds directly to the final pots. Covered the pots with cling film and after 72 hours all of them popped out. At this point my light was running on 250W and 30 cm's above the seedlings.
I gave them their first drink after 10 days from seed and switched the light to 400 than 600 this week. I also added b52 to this watering. Everything is good except one of the plants leaves get crinkled. Maybe it was about the light distance. light was 40 cms above the plants and after that happened i lifted the light to 50 cms and its all good for now.
They are 14 days from seed and i'm thinking about giving them more nutes because some of the leaves turned yellow and they seem hungry to me. 3 of them was slow on growth so i raised them to the light. Also one of them is still on recovery because of low humidity i put a dome on it for now but i just got a humidifier and planning to remove it immediately. I will get rid of some of the plants to save space but for now i'm using them to test nutes. I'll feed them first and if it's all good i'll feed the others in the same way. Hope they double their sizes this week and get into pre-flowering asap.
30.04.17 2 of them showed pre flowers so i feed them with first week bloom nutes. 2 of my OG Kush has clawed leaves i flushed them on 29.04.17 and watered with veg nutes on 01.05.17. In a day or two all the others gonna show pre-flowers and i will feed them with the bloom nutes on next watering. Hope OG's get well soon. On 03.05 i watered 3 of my tall plants they dryout quicker and on 05.05 i watered all of them with the ph'ed water. Next watering gonna be next monday and with the new week i'll give them some more flowering nutes.
I am watering between 3 days and giving nutes on every watering cuz they show some deficiency's and i was keeping the nutes low so i hope its not gonna hurt them.
I was planing to switch between nute and plain water on waterings but they showed some deficiencies so i keep on giving them nutes every watering with a little increased dosage.
I increased the nutes and keeping giving them nute water twice a week. Buds getting denser and denser and im thinking about swaping Big Bud with Overdrive on next week.
I swap big bud with overdrive this week. Lowered the nutes a little and keep giving nutes on every watering for 10 days. I bought a microscope and noticed that one of my problem childs are ready for harvest. %25 of the pistils has darkened and trichs are all cloudy/milky. Thinking about flushing it then harvest on this week. Some of the others also has darkened pistils but at a little low ratio. I think they need a week or two to harvest.
I checked the trichs and most of them all milky/cloudy ain't gonna wait for them turn amber i'll start chopping them off on this week.
I'll save amnesia and haze's for at least a couple of weeks cuz they have 80-90 days lifecycle on breeders info and maybe some white widow too for making a sleep medicine.
I got them taco leaves cuz of the humidity imo but i tried everything rocksalt dehumidifying chemicals except buying a dehumidifier but i wont be doing this in my whole life and i already paid a shit load of money on equipment so it wont hurt that much ha? :)
I'll harvest one of dem sick og's first. She had all brown pistils and cloudy trichs. I think she is so ready. She was always wilting whatever i feed her and i am so amazed that she turned out that quickly.
I will harvest another two in the meantime but they are so bushy and still growing sugar leaves instead of getting denser its not a suitable strain for me. it was my first harvest experience and that was so much fun. I tryed drying with stems but its too humid in here so i seperate them. I bought a humidifier block but its not working that well. Slow dry aint gonna hurt imo. Hope my other harvests will be better. criticals on next :)
The nearby og kush got mold and infect 2 of their main colas so i have to harvest them a little early. Breeders info says 70 days and you should add 1 more week on that so i have them 10 days earlier. Anyway 130 grams good weed is better than tons of molded weed :)
Il add photos if i can find them building up a new pc and everyting is a mess. update the infomation in the mean time i have another one still growing in my tent so at least i can shot her and upload before harvest. I'll update the total yield. Two of them weighed 120 gr wet and after dried it went down to 40 gr. The last one is getting so much light i think with the big popcorns it will give at least 40 himself.
Going to feed them with half a dose of everything they are drinking so fast. Dont know if its about strain but all them others are feeling a little heavier on every watering. Hope they'll get denser
I had mold issues on my 2 og and 1 critical and cut down 6 of them that i flushed last week. when tight space and high humidity combines that shit happens. Anyway i have them other 9 in my tent and planning to keep them till they have %10-20 amber trichs. White widow and hazes getting denser and denser. I increased the ventialation and there is plenty of space hope the mold aint gonna show up again 😏 I inspected them closely today and it seems all good i am gonna water them tomorrow i'll check again when i was checking trichs with the microscope. Im thinking about flushing whitewidows and ogs to harvest at least next week but they seem like they have the potential to grow bigger i'll wait till all trichs went milky and they are down. Amnesia's has long way to go. i burned them haze with the light and they are growing a lot of fan leaves. I wanna see whats gonna happen so they are together till the end :)
They are still growing white pistils but plenty of them got browned ones still going to wait for them to curl in but i dont know humidity is still so high and there are plenty of fat colas i dont want them to got mold. Anyway i have a home type ventilator running wild 24/7 dont think its gonna happen again. I checked the trichs they are close to harvest so planing to flush them tomorrow. Maybe after flush i will feed them with plain water for a week more to see whats gonna happen.
I have 8 of them 3 WW, 2 Haze , 1 OG Kush and 2 Amnesia. I'll check with microscope and sort them for harvest. Prolly i'll harvest hazes and amnesias last and og and ww's first.
It's been a nice grow. I have 200+ Grams dry weight with half of them. And after harvesting these i will hit 500 grams imo. Thats very nice for a first time grower. Isn't it?
So my first journey is over. I had like 500 grams from 15 plants in 140x140 tent with 600w HPS. I tried 5 different strains 3 of each and it went quite well imo for a first time grower. I tried to experiment many thing with the first grow with a lot of plants and i will try getting the same result with 9 plants on my next grow. It''''s gonna be all sativas by the way and i will try to scrog them if i can. It''''s been said u can make 600 top with that light and thats my first grow so i can consider it as a success. It''''s been amazing watching them growing up and the harvest is so much fun. Its like collecting bonus items in a video game :)I harvested 7 of them first and 8 of them last also mixed strains i smoked some curing some maybe i''''ll update in the meantime. So i''''ll organise a better diary in the next time this one is such a mess. I saved this harvest for the whole result. enjoy.
