Only second grow, and today 08 Sept 2018, I have popped two Peach Puree CBD seeds into two Jiffy seed pods to start them off. They are on a heated seed tray in the window sill. Once they sprout they will be transferred to pots in my grow tent
Day 8 and the plants are a bit leggy. Moved them into the grow tent, and put them straight into their final pots, and given them some support. Think next time I will start them directly in the tent rather than on the windowsill.
Day 15 (first day of week three) the plants have fully recovered and have had their first feed. A solution of Canna A+B, Rhizotonic and Cannzym. Ph'd to 5.9.
At day 21 now and the difference a week and the first feed has made is significant.😀
Still going strong. Things have cooled down a lot round here lately so had to up the temperature in the tent a little - was running just the Veg lights, but added the bloom lights to bring the temperature up again. Seems to be working nicely for now.
Both plants were topped on day 34. At day 36 and plant 1 is looking healthier than plant 2. Clearly much bushier and the roots have gone all the way through the pot and down the capilliary matting and are now clearly spreading into the water reservoir below. Plant 2's roots have yet to emerge from the bottom of the pot.
Though I am not worried as both plants look healthy and very much alive, it's just one is clearly much more advanced than the other.😎
As week six comes to an end, plant one is looking really good, very bushy and lots of nodes growing. Where it was topped a week ago there is very healthy growth on the two new shoots and the stem is looking nice and fat, so have decided to start week seven with this plant in LST.
As for plant two, that is starting to look much better. The roots have come out of the bottom of the pot and are crawling down the capilliary matting. They should reach the solution any day now. So for for now this plant is being fed on its own schedule. At least a couple of weeks away from LST though.
Day 58 and plants were LST'd and topped in order to even them up a bit more. Full water change and feed given.
Day 59 and plants are looking good. All LST'd nodes are turned back to the light and looking healthy.
Will give them another four or five days to recover from topping and if all is well will flip them to flowering on Saturday,
Final day of week 9 and the plants are looking great. The plan now is to flip them to flowering tomorrow by putting them on a 12-12 achedule
On Saturday 10 Nov (day 64), switched to 12-12 light schedule to go into flowering. Plants currently 29.5cm tall.
Nov 11 - Plants are 32cm tall
Nov 12 - Plants are 35cm tall
Nov 13 - Plants are 36.5cm tall
Nov 14 - Plants are 40cm tall
Nov 15 - Plants are 43cm tall
Nov 16 - Plants are 45cm tall
Day 71 and an intial defoliation given to open up the plants a bit and let more air and light through,
Full change of water and all new nutrients applied.
Plant height = 47cm.
Day 72 = 51cm.
Day 73 = 55cm.
Day 74 = 56.5cm.
Day 75 = 58cm.
Day 76 = 60cm.
Day 77 = 62cm.
Day 78 = 64cm.
Day 79 - Full range of nuitrients given. Stretch is going really well and flowers are starting to appear. Plant height = 67cm.
Day 80 = 70cm
Day 81 = 73cm
Day 82 = 77cm
Day 83 = 79cm
Day 84 = 81cm
Stretch seems to have stopped completely now. Growth (height wise) is very slow but flowers are developing nicely now. Been a funny old week, got a nasty little kidney stone which kept me out of action for four days, Finally passed it last night, The little shit is only 3mm in size but it tore me to shreds 😖
Sorry if it's not the right thing to do on here, but the last photo is the stone, kept it as a souvenir - weed did help with the pain though😎
Flowering seems to be going well, noticed a lot of the 'hair' strands are turning ginger/brown, so looks like we are moving in to the final stages. Keeping a close eye on the Tricomes now for that milky look. So far only a very few have it. Probably start flushing around Christmas.
@Cannabrown, For the general pics I have a Canon 24-105 Zoom lens. For the close up shots I have been practicing with a set of extension tubes which seem to be working out OK.
