2 Girls 1 Cup week 10?? Looks like WG still has a few weeks left on her. GC on the other hand... is technically already dead to me, I've properly mourned her loss. Just need to keep her out of the way (and alive).
Day 63- my TDS meter was accurate the whole time.. had to dial it back up.. I'm an idiot.. but these girls have been rocking out at over a thousand for weeks now and not really showing signs of burn. Few tips here and there. Crank the P/K up in this week's feed. RES change tonight. Modified GHE late bloom aggressive feed. TAP water so there's no added N from the calmag needed with RO. Breakdown as follows:
5gal TAP water - 137ppm
Micro- 33mL
Grow- 35.5mL
Bloom- 50mL
RES totals after ph corrections [email protected].
=============================================================================================
Day 64- GC seems to have blown up since yesterdays stabbing.. i took a vid, which ended up being a little too long. didnt want to wait for it to upload so i canceled. may clip the part where i went psycho on GC main and upload later. she may get stabbed a few more times before this is all over. thinking about drilling a hole or two in WG within the last few days, and the 48hr dark before chop chop. (when the time comes of course)
=============================================================================================
Day 65- I don't think I ever disclosed my tent is in a closet... vid tonight shows it. Also shows how much head space I have above it for a TALLER tent.. a 4x4x80 would fit this current space REAL nice.. could make em taller as well. One thing I need to think over before the next run. I did cut GC back some tonight. Was creating a shadow on WG, and I didn't want it smacking in the fan again. That got annoying quick the other night while trying to sleep. WG still fattening up. Top offs have been with bubbled/aged TAP. Tonight I gave em a G/B 5/10mL shot since numbers are dropping from top offs and consumption.
=============================================================================================
Day 66- i know i didnt add a comment for the day... but i DID upload pics. must have not saved. noticed when updating timelapse with the days footage, my diary is missing pics from 66. damnit! maybe i should quit uploading so many damn videos.
=============================================================================================
Day 69- WG starting to show signs of its end. Brown spots on a few random leaves here and there. Checked tricomes tonight and were like 90% cloudy 10% clear. Hope they start to amber up within the next week. Haven't hit the A/C yet, and Temps are reaching 86! I can say that I have noticed less of an odor when opening the tent. So I think I'm nuking them terps.

As always, thanks for stopping by and checking out my current grow experiment.

Anyone use a reptile ceramic heat emitter to heat their smaller tent? Grabbing an elitech temp/humidity controller and a reptile fogger since the unit I'm running will prob never have wifi app support again. Could plug the heat emitter on the "heat" side and keep it high up??
@DeepWaterGrower, the shock seemed to get things moving in the right direction. plant appeared confused as to what it wanted to do up until then. i dont think i would recommend it on a crop you care about. was done as an experiment to see how it reacted. will need to recreate on another crop to see if it has the same effect or not.
@DeepWaterGrower, I've stabbed GC a few times with tweezers and seemed to have kicked it into high gear (finally). Read up on stem splitting and came up with this. Not enough room to get in there without splitting myself open 🤣. May bring home the drill and a #7 bit for round two today.
Looking stellar.. nice work. This is the issue I had with autos in hydro (if you can call it that) is the growth is so fast and dense you feel you have to defoliate so often.
It’s tough cuz at some point that will slow down significantly, and you want to make sure you have plenty of foliage for the bulking stage. What has happened to me in the past was I went to far at that critical point, and ended up with less than optimal canopy for bulking.. if that makes sense. Excited to see how she turns out
@Ezzjaybruh, you aren't kidding about the push. I can see running an auto from time to time on the side. Especially if you have multiple tents. You can really learn from photos
@SmokieMcPot, yea man.. I’ll do an abusive auto run occasionally to test some shit out but photos are so much easier frankly. That’s what annoys me with all the marketing towards beginners starting with autos.. it should be the opposite. You fuck up a bit with an auto everything can go outta whack and you’re on a rigid timeline - not long after that shit usually hits fan
@Ezzjaybruh, thank you. I know exactly what you're saying about almost daily plucks. I've gone too far too late before as well and ended up murdering the plant and starting over. Trying not to do that again. WG leaves changing shape letting me know to slow down on her. GC i think I have another week maybe. Second time with autos, and after this one were going back to photos for sure. MUCH more forgiving
Sweet man I saw your question and now I’m following it.. if you got cooling of the res than I’d say go for the heating element.. tho you could probably get a little heater fan.. more expensive tho. I use a small space heater in my 8x4 and 8x10 at times
PS - water farms are badass. I had the water farm kits on a few 5 gallons way back in the day
@Ezzjaybruh, appreciate the response on the ?. i thought about a space heater too. this seems like the best option for how tight this space will get with photos later on. def agree about the water farms. my buddy saved this one for me for over 20yrs. upgraded it a bit before its second run. hoping to re-create the first grow in this one, just with two fems this time instead of some dudes from bag seed.
@Mining_green, thanks homie. I have my fingers and toes crossed. I'm starting out with known genetics instead of bag seeds this time round with the farm. Water temps will be in check this time too.
Looking lovely, I am a big fan of companion planting so it's nice to see someone else planting two in the same pot. Your training is pretty much exactly what I have in mind for mine so I shall follow along with this one and see how you get on! :)
@SmokieMcPot, if you want some inspiration from a beginner, take a look at "Karen" in my current grow series. Look at the first three weeks... and then see what happens. These plants are pretty resiliant.
@SmokieMcPot, Zero chance of disappointment (unless you just stop updating I guess), but no matter what happens with the grow, if you record and post it it will help someone somewhere someday.
Bellísimo, una pregunta bro te haz hecho tú mismo tu sistema hidropónico ? por que no he visto esa máquina en ningún grow, están buenas las plantas, y otra pregunta si las germinó en lana de roca no pasa nada si luego le hecho la arcilla así como haz hecho tú con la turba sería de gran ayuda un saludo
@Pherguay, thanks homie. I made a larger version of the waterfarm. It's waiting for its turn in the tent. I uploaded a vid of it during week 6 I think. I've never used Rockwool, but I don't see that being a problem.
@Herbies_Seeds, herbies official? Awh shoot.. thanks Herbies 😊. I'm going to try and get GC to finish. If not, I'll run it again for ya and make ya proud. *late edit* RIP Gozdilla Cookies
Hey growmie - really nice diary
Thanks so much for sharing your grow experience, we hope you liked our genetics
Have a great weekend :) enjoy the harvest!
@Fast_Buds, FastBuds official? Awh shoot, thanks for stopping by. Decisions made stunted her from her full potential.. but she still turned out great giving her circumstances. Enjoying the "samples" I've taken, so I can only imagine how she'll taste after curing.
