Easy to grow, doesn't take much for nutrients during veg but during bloom I ran into pH issues and believe I was not providing enough cal mag most of grow and it caught up to me week 3-4 of flower. This was my 1st grow ever and I believe I will yeild 2oz per plant once dried and cured possibly more. Hard to tell yet. 1plant has been drying since Sun 5/14 other plant was chopped 5/18. Will provide final weight once buds have dried.
It Far exceeded my expectations of 230g after drying and trimming. I set a modest goal for myself of 2oz a plant for my 1st grow ever and am very pleased with the results.
I am indifferent on these nutrients as it's my first grow. Plants seem to like them more then I do. I had a lot of pH issues in my soil. I like all of the additives other then the base A&B had salt buildup in bottle and can hear rattle when shook. The signal smells awesome kind of like homemade iced tea.
I really like this light. The hanging system provided is absolutely trash and difficult to install get rid of it and spen some money on adjustable rope hangars.
I have dried, and trimmed most of the buds. I only had 2 jars at the moment. I ended up with 230g of bud, way exceeding my expectations! Overall it looks decent, it's insanely sticky. I think this will not be the most flavorful plant but some of the most resinous. There are several buds covered in guttation and it tastes just like honey. Some of the buds are a little airy for my liking. Never turned light past 60% so 230g from 460w which is .5g/watt of light but could have easily added 2 more plants to the 4x4 to achieve 1g/watt or possibly higher.
What can I do to get these plants to stretch? They are going into Week 4 and only 5" tall. They have a diameter of appx 10" I feel these should be much taller at this point.
Its the genetics. Indica generally have fat leaves and stay short and squat. Sativa have thin leaves and stretch taller with more branching. Yours is an Indica leaning hybrid anyway, but it's possible it leans even more heavily that way than another seed grown alongside it - hybrids are often unpredictable.
There's nothing wrong with the plant, don't worry. Lots of nodes tight together makes for large, dense buds. Plus it will stretch at 50-100% when it starts to flower. Just keep doing what you're doing! 😀
I would check your ph first. It looks like you are not giving enough potassium for flowering. Which if this is low your substrate ph will climb out of range causing lock out. The spots are calcium, and possible potassium deficiency spots mixed in.
Hey,
Thanks a bunch for growing our genetics, and sharing this diary with us :)
We hope that it was a nice experience, and that you enjoy the harvest!
Have a good one
