8 hour soak, everybody sunk to the bottom. In a moist paper towel in a plastic bag for the next 24-48!
24 hour update - all seeds have germinated. Waiting for tap roots to get long enough.
36 hour update - all tap roots have emerged and are growing well. Will wait 12 more hours before transplanting to pre-watered/heated jiffy pellets.
48 hour update - holy crap, the change in 12 hours was amazing! Tap roots are huge, kinda cork-screwy on a few. Root hairs spotted on a number of them. A few have already cracked their shells. One lost her helmet in the process.
Hi all, first time grower. I've just put my seeds into jiffy pellets. How's everything looking?
I have some of my wife's plants in the tent as well right now. I'm thinking of going 60% at around 24 inches for the first few weeks with this mixed bag. Thoughts?
valuta che alle piante di cannabis piace la luce piu che ad altre piante
appena escono i cotiledoni devi dargli luce
se la luce non è abbastanza vicina lo stelo della pianta tendera' ad allungarsi per poi fermarsi quando trova la luce giusta
quindi se vedi che gli steli si allungano avvicinale alla luce mettendo qualche supporto per alzare le piante ed avvicinarle
I have seedlings in jiffy pellets and am concerned as the cotyledons are curling downwards. I suspect the pellets are too wet right now and am letting them dry out a bit before watering again. I am following AC Infinity's lighting schedule with 100% light 18/6 @ 36 inches.
Week 1 (Day 1) - Roots are showing through the bottom of the jiffy pellets. Transplant to coco seedling pots. 70/30 Canna Coco prebuffered/perlite. Pre-watered, no nutes. Add .25 tsp great white to hole for jiffy pellet. Watered 40 ml (ph 6.4, ec 245). Everyone looks happy, not too leggy afaik. Pots are noticeably wet 1/3 of the way down.
Week 1 (Day 1) - Pots dry all around. Coco doesn't look dry, but doesn't look like it's holding much. Evening feeding. Canna A/B 2.5 ml/gal. .5 tsp/gal Recharge. Watered 40 ml. Some run-off, not much. Everyone looks happy. First fan leaves are getting bigger.
Week 1 (Day 2) AM Feed - Pots dry, plants look good. Calmag Canna A/B 2.5 ml/gal. .5 tsp/gal Recharge. Watered 40 ml. Some run-off, not much. Everyone looks happy. First fan leaves are getting bigger. Final Feed stats - 6.25 pH, 556 EC.
Week 1 (Day 2) PM Feed - Pots significantly dry. Upped watering amount to 1 cup/pot. 20-30% run-off. Some settling of Coco. CaliMagic 1 ml/gal. Canna A/B 2.5ml/gal. Final Feed Stats - 6.33 pH, 595 EC
Week 1 (Day 3) PM Feed - Most pots significantly dry. 2x pot are very wet still. I'm thinking due to air flow or proximity to the output of the humidifier. Plants are looking happy. Upping nutes/C. Added extra coco post watering to deal with settling + deter gnats. Caligmaic 2ml/gal. Coco A/B 3 ml/gal. Final feed stats - 6.25 pH 675 EC
Week 1 (Day 4) PM Feed - Pots are moist, not wet. Backed off watering to 1/2 cup per plant. 10-15% runoff. The two wet pots are still the wettest. I don't know why. Everyone looking happy. One plant had a lean that I used some wire to correct. Gnats seem controlled. Started rhizotonic because I finally got it in. Calimagic 3 ml/gal. Coco A/B 3.5 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. Final feed stats - 6.27 pH 730 EC. Some plants have some of the inner sawtooths on the biggest leaves starting to curl up slightly. Monitoring.
Week 1 (Day 5) PM Feed - Pots most, not wet. 1/2 cup per plant. 10-15% runoff. Two wet pots are still wettest. Who knows. First root spotted out the bottom! Calimagic 4 ml/gal. Coco A/B 4.5 ml gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. Final feed stats - 6.1 pH 907 EC. Leaves look better now. Planning on upping nutrients more quickly now that I'm seeing strong growth from most plants.
Week 1 (Day 6) PM Feed. More of the same. Significant growth in the past 24 hours. 1/2 cup per plant. 10-15% rrunoff. Adding in Armor Si (thanks Bezos). Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calimagic 4 ml/gal, Coco A/B 6 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 15 ml/gal. Final Feed stats - 6.15 pH 1150 EC.
Week 1 (Day 7) PM Feed. Growing hard. Leaves are a little less green than I'd like. Upped water amount to 3/4 cup per plant. 10-15% runoff. Added in recharge for the week. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calimagic 5ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 15 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats - 6.29 pH 1466 EC. Transplanting tomorrow.
Hi All. New Grower here. Just checking in, how're we looking?
70/30 Coco/Perlite. 18/6 light @ 36 inches @ 100%. Canna nutes + Calimagic + Greatwhite.
I'm getting some settling of my coco, so I'm adding a bit on top every once in a while.
if you have gnats, consider different source for the substrate... if stored outside, you get gnats. buy a product with Bti in it, like mosquito bits for a top dress or mosquito dunks if you have a reservoir (not good for irrigation plumbing though). i only mention cuse i see the sticky traps.. can use bti pre-emptively and avoid 99.9% of it.. if i see zero gnats i'll stop using it at some point in the grow, but will use it to stat every time. it's cheap enough and worth it. you'll see 1 or 2 around if the larva is present in the substrate.. it's never 100% but it most definitely controls it - if used midstream it'll corral a problem within 2-3 weeks. sticky traps still good to put out... kill in 2 parts of life cycle that way.
no worries on adding more to the top.. you can easily bury with transplant, too. Roots will lose their function over time due to exposure to light. burying them will eventually cause them to re-differentiate yet again into roots... cause and effect. it's small potatoes either way as long as they are in an appropriately sized pot, which they are.
watering habits will help the most to avoid superficial roots. You are in coco/perlite, so it's easy as pie... find a well-balance nute mix and use a concentration somewhre around 1.3-1.5EC every irrigation with 10% runoff. the runoff ensures each time the concentration is where you want it.
you may need to tweak balance of the various nutrients invovled, but the concentration range will be damn close to what you want relative to your garden's variables. you can push higher and some plants may want a little less, but those contexts are extremely obvious and slow enough to react to with no harm.
change formula? give a little extra runoff and that new balance is in effect immediately... another benefit of soilless grows.
start tracking how much of each nute you feed... ppms, weighted average of label %'s.. whatver floats your boat. when you se tox symtpoms, make note of what levels you are seeing it... if you see a consistent result in this regard, you can easily avoid it in future. Even if i change products, i can devise a formula that comes out near what i used before and be confident it's going to work well, because reality is deterministic and works on cause and effect. makes you feel all warm inside... despite the fact it also means free will may be an illusion, but that's not a topic for discussion here...
:P
Hi! I am 2 weeks out from my seeds getting wet. Everything seems to be progressing OK. I'm thinking of transplanting the pots to their final homes tomorrow. Thoughts? Too soon?
I would say go for it. The root base is typically twice as big as foliage. So you are due very soon. Try not to distrub the roots too much to avoid shock.
Note: the plants in the smaller buckets are leaving this week.
Week 2 (Day 1) - Transplant day. Prepped 3.5 gal hempy pots in the morning. Each pot took 2 gallons of water before showing any signs of run-off. Let run-off to 20%. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats ph 6.15, EC 1500.
PM: Transplant, chose the 4 with best chances and moved them to their forever homes. I at first wanted to plant the entire coco pot but was worried it wouldn't break down so took all the coco pots off. TONS of roots. Watered each pot with 1/2 gallon 40/50% run-off. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 3 ml/gal, Coco A/B 6 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final Feed stats - pH 6., EC 1326
Week 2 (Day 2) - No apparent transplant shock. Everyone has grown significantly since last night. 1/2 gallon per pot, 20-30% runoff. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 3 ml/gal, Coco A/B 6 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal. Final feed stats - pH 6.0 EC 1252. Checked EC of outflow of pots, EC at ~1150, solid drop from the previous two feedings. Hungry babies.
Week 2 (Day 3) - Solid growth all around. 1/2 gallon per big pot, 2 cups per 1 gal pot. 20-30% run-off for coco plants. No nutes for the 3 potting soil plants. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, 5 ml/gal calmag, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal. Signs of nutrient deficiency on the smaller plants. They're getting donated, so I'll do my best, but am focusing on my coco plants. Final feed stats pH 6.05, EC 1330.
Week 2 (Day 6) - Significant growth. 1 gal per big pot. No water to soil pots. 20-30% runoff for hempy buckets. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats pH 6.05, EC 1450. Runoff EC in pots was ~1240. Good uptake numbers. Notes: topped the plants this morning. Topped @ 4th node, growth of 5th node. LFG.
Week 2 (Day 7) - Finally got the nuts up to top, defoliate, and LST. Topped on day 6. Just finished trimming + LST. No feed.
Moving to watering every 3-4 days. Hempy buckets are dialed in from a water amount perspective.
Week 3, Day 3 - Did some pruning and some lst. Probably a bit too much pruning and lst. Broke a branch on one plant. Woops. Watered 1 gal per plants. ~30% runoff. Armor Si 2ml/gal, Calmag 5ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal. Final feed stats - pH 6.15 EC 1484. Runoff EC ~ 900-1100.
Week 3, Day 7 - Slight LST, nothing else. Watered 1 gal per plants. ~30% runoff. Armor Si 2ml/gal, Calmag 5ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal. Final feed stats - pH 6.2 EC 1482. Runoff EC ~ 1050.
Week 4, Day 3 - Everyone looking very happy. I definitely fimmed one of the plants instead of topping. lol. I'm pretty happy with the horizontal spread of my branches, looking for side branches to start to go a bit more vertical. Waiting for tops to develop a bit more before topping again. Lots of growth sites everywhere. Started 2x Barney's Bubba Kush in solo cups for giggles. 1 gal per plant, ~30% runoff. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A,B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal , Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats pH 6.21 EC 1650.

Check-in- How are we looking? Week 4, Day 2
Question: Are my plants wide enough to now start allowing more vertical growth?
I have discovered I love LST! I'm very happy with most of my horizontal growth and am now thinking I should allow more vertical growth. Thoughts?
Hello
If you plan to SCROG then continue horizontal growth, but tent will be soon full when you flip to flowering. Be aware to not left of space late in flowering, plants can be stretchy
Great cultivar from ETHOS!
Week 5, Day 2 - Final veg week before flipping to flower. Plants are filling out nicely. Low and squat, plenty of room for the stretch. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A,B 10 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal , Cannaboost 4 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats pH 6.05 EC 1509.
Week 5, Day 5 - Everyone is looking good. Slight yellowing on one leaf of the runt. . Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A,B 10 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal , Cannaboost 4 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. Final feed stats pH 6.17 EC 1513.
First time grower - How are we looking? This picture is right after feed. Previous Feed was Armor Si 2ml/gal, Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. That was 2 days ago. Slight yellowing of the leaves? Nitrogen deficiency? OK? Need Calmag?
They look good 👍. First grow, nice little setup. Done some training it looks like also just from the picture. Yellowing of the leaves I can't see on the pic, give them all some calmag to be safe.
Week 6, Day 1 - Decided to go one more week in veg to try to get the plants a bit darker green. Upped Calmag and upped nutes. Also PHed water lower. Armor Si 2ml/gal, Calmag 10 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. Final feed stats PH 5.8, EC 1676.
Week 6, Day 2 - Watered only with calmag. PhEd down to 5.5, trying to get the coco PH down a bit further. Runoff PH @ 6.4. I'll take it.
Week 6, Day 4 - PH correction seems to be working well. New growth is a darker green. Plants are looking solid. Armor Si 2ml/gal, Calmag 8 ml/gal, Coco A/B 10 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final Feed stats PH 5.5, EC 1676.
Week 6, Day 5 - Scrogged.
Beautiful SCROG! 😋 Most important thing with a SCROG is airflow between the leaves and buds. Make a beautiful screen of green and get rid of everything under the screen that does not get direct light from the lamp to support the upper growth.
Flipped plants to 12/12 yesterday night. Will run from 7pm to 7am, dark during the day for heat control.
Week 1 Flower, Day 1 - Some pistils to be seen. Continuing to scrog. Definitely looks like I've turned around the deficiencies from the previous weeks.

Week 1 Flower, Day 2 - Added in a square light and moved the ionboard over. Much better light coverage into the corners. It'll be interesting to see what the difference is on each side.
Week 1 Flower, Day 4 -Continuing flower 12/12 schedule. Continuing to scrog. Definitely looks like I've turned around the deficiencies from the previous weeks. Some older growth looks janky, but new growth is looking good. Armor Si 2ml/gl, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannaboost 10 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal.

Maintaining feed stats and amounts, everything is looking good. Now for the stretch! Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats pH 5.76, EC 1414
Week 2 Flower, Day 4 - Did a big defoliation to begin setting up final scrog
Week 2 Flower, Day 7 - Scrog is filling out. I've pretty much stopped weaving the one in the back right of the tent. The runt up front is just kinda existing, doesn't seem to be growing much. Not sure what's going on there. Upped the nutes a bit this go around. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 12 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final feed stats pH 5.77, EC 1640

Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 14 ml/gal, Cannazym 12 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal.
Week 3 Flower, Day 5 - Scrog pretty much complete. I did an update on the scrog the other night and broke 2 branches. My b. Everyone looking happy. Signs of flower on the runt finally, hopefully she catches up to the rest in the stretch. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 14 ml/gal, Cannazym 12 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal.
Flower Week 3, Day 2 - Everybody is looking strong. Looking hungry as well. Decided to bump EC higher. Will start PK next feed. Not much scrogging to do, had to LST one branch in the back.

Week 5 Flower - Day 1 - First trichomes are starting to appear! Had to water my solo cup plants so did some defol to open up some light penetration. Even seeing signs of flower on the runt.
Week 5 Flower - Day 2 - Everything looking good. Did a feed for all the plants + some heavy defol to ensure buds are getting light. Got kinda frustrated with the runt and heavily defoled, hoping to spur some quicker growth of buds. Armor Si 2 ml/gal, Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 14 ml/gal, Cannazym 12 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. Final Feed stats - pH 5.75, EC 1774
Week 5 Flower - Day 5 - Frost all around. Buds are looking great on all the plants. Will be switching out Cannaboost for Bud Candy on the next feed as Cannaboost is too fucking expensive. Stopped silica as the stretch is definitely over. My biggest plant took almost 2 gallons of water. Will do some defol tomorrow. Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 14 ml/gal, Cannazym 12 ml/gal, Canna PK 5 ml/gal, Cannaboost 8 ml/gal, Rhizotonic 8 ml/gal. Final Feed stats - pH 5.7, EC 1769
Week 7 Flower, Day 1 - On set it and forget it mode now. Some slight defol, but other than that just feeding. Will be lowering the Coco A/B over the next few feedings. I've decided to just keep the PK booster rolling for the majority of flower. Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 14 ml/gal. AN Bud Candy 4 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Canna PK 5 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal.

Week 8 Flower, Day 3 - Continuing to see buds fatten and get bigger. Seeing tops of colas coming together. No foxtailing afaik. Starting to see some of the pistils changing color. No major changes in fertigation. Continuing pk. Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, AN Bud Candy 5 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, pk 5 ml/gallon, recharge .5 tsp/gal.
Week 8 Flower, Day 6 - Buds are getting bigger. I think the solo cups are about done. Will be getting a scope to start checking. Continuing pk. Canna Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, AN Bud Candy 5 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, pk 5 ml/gallon
I want to say I agree with Mining_Green
get a jewelers loop or you can buy 100x microscope on amazon
If 80% of your trichomes cloudy they're definitely ready to chop, if you're looking to a deeper inset couch lock high the more the amber they are the deep the couch lock.
Went on a trip, caught COVID, have been dealing with that. watered 3 days ago, but didn't have the energy to write it down.
Week 10 Flower, Day I dunno - normal watering regime as previous weeks. Buds continue to grow. COVID sucks.
Week 10 Flower - Day 7 Final feed stats: Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, AN Bud Candy 5 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, Canna Pk 5 ml/gal, Recharge .5 tsp/gal. pH 5.56 EC 1294
Week 11 Day 4 - Still on target from the looks of things. White pistils are starting to fade, buds are looking fatter. One cola is showing possible issues. Expecting chop in 1-2 weeks. Calmag 5 ml/gal, Coco A/B 8 ml/gal, AN bud candy 5 ml/gal, Cannazym 10 ml/gal, pk 5 ml/gal. Final feed stats: pH 5.5, EC 1241
I am in late flower and am seeing some discoloration on leaves of 2 colas of only one plant. Start of fade? Issue? At this point should I just let it ride?
Picture of issue and rest of canopy. TIA!
No not fade.
Yes likely an issue of some sort.
I’d try and let it ride for the most part.
Personally if I was in your shoes, seeing as it’s coco - I’d do a flush of sorts, run water thru medium. Assuming you have a high EC runoff. It’s quick and easy and of no real consequence in coco to flush water thru to straighten out any salt build up. Then do a mild feed afterward to replenish. Your plants look like they still have some bulking to go..
