Big nutes issue.
Didn't give nutes all the cicle. Wanted to try for once only soil, have transplanted 1 week before.
I tought it still was enough, but nutes were needed...
So I've measured the ph and ec of soil : ph : 7.5
Ec: 0.4
So I started to use AN to try to recover them.
I started with half of the maximum dose recommended.
2ml/L for bases nutes and 1.5 ml/L for complements.
They are giving signs of life.
Plants are getting better and I can see new leaves with a better green then the old ones.
Ph is getting lower, I have done a flush with phed demineralised water.
I've used 2X the liters of soil as quantity.
I'm always keeping an eye on water.
I'm watering them only when they ask it.
I'm waiting for leaves to show me that they are thirsty.
They are getting stronger and stronger.
Feed: once a week, ec: 3.3
Watering : once every 3 days
1.5x stretch until now, we enter in the third week of bloom.
Keeping an eye always for upcoming need of PK.
If they will need more will add a pow(d)er complement nute.
Trying to regulate ph, even if I use AN, they don't like it out of range.
Feeding them once a week, ec of the solution is around 3.0, not a single sign of burn, so keep going.
Watering them with tap water, with a balanced ph of 6.3 around. Keeping the water at air for at least 24 h before.
Have stopped the foliar spray, flowers are coming...
Keep you updated!
Buds are coming from pretty much everywhere.
Hoping those babies will give nice and hard and big buds as it should.
Lot of stress, expecially for the lack of water.
Those babies reacted very well to that stress and defoliation was naturally done by them. Just yellowing and falling during 2 weeks. Now they have a little bit more light to develop nice futures buds.
Side branches growed a bit more since the stretch, so new buds will come.
Let's see 🤔
Pretty much in the 5th week of bloom.
Buds are getting bigger and harder.
Main colas (especially the one at the bottom/right) are getting fat and one big bud going from center of plant, to the top.
Cola is around 30 cm for now.
Can see orange hairs on the first GP, already 20% of total I guess.
I didn't check tricomes, still too early, even for a courius person like me.
I have to cut down the nitrogen, one of the babies have nitrogen toxicity, but I've noticed ib early stage I think.
I will continue with big bud, maybe I will cut a bit the b52, I will cut a bit also the 3 base nutes, instead of 3ml/L I will give 1.5/L.
Instead I will give a concentrate of PK (30/50) to boost bloom second phase.
I will give this kind of nute every 2 weeks, instead once in a week as usual, with other nutes I'm already using.
Keep you updated folks.
Stay wild
Everything is going ptetty much well, I've checked the runoff ec, we have 2.2 so I've cut down the grow/bloom/micro, giving just b52, rhyno and powder PK.
Nitrogen toxicity is going well, babies are consuming it, I can see it from leaves, bottom ones are turning slightly yellow, I will give some N in one week, because I guess I will need 3 more weeks to get the job done with those plants.
I'm feeding them once a week pretty much and in between I give ph(6.5) tap water left at open air for at least 24 h.
Keep you updated folks!
Last two weeks for those babies.
Last feed was pretty high ec (3.2) and some burns showed up. It's ok, watering them with regular phed water for 10 days and final flush.
I guess something between 10 days to max 2 weeks for all 4.
One is already ready, but I prefer when it punchs you in your head well, so I'm waiting for more brown tricome to show up.
Smell side : it's fine, not even the need of a filter. Smell strong but very sweet, like fine grass and flowers left at sun, after a rain, in a summer day, if you know what I mean.
Flowers: very rocky, big compact heads, with a lot of tricomes. Little leaves are full of them as well.
I'm watering every day pretty much now, they are very very thirsty now and this is good, because I can flush better the whole thing until the final flush, and last 3/4days I will keep them with no water, really short amount of light (3 hours) to increase thc production. (This will be a test)
Cheers
