5/28 Hairs are appearing on Gaia but not on Circe or others. I had an issue with the ventilation shutting off during a thunderstorm and did not fix it until the next morning. the tent temperature was 78f with RH 100% yikes.
5/30 water and feeding. Gaia is showing yellow spots and some gnarling or curling on a few of the same leaves in the middle of the plant. I think it is cal-mag deficiency based on reading. Since the deficiency appears in the middle of the plant (4 nodes below the top growth) above this is not showing the same damage, it may have been corrected. If anyone reading this has comments regarding this deficiency, please share. See pictures. Due to the growth by Gaia and Circe, I took the crates out and put them on the floor of the tent. I left Cream Caramel & Gelato 41 on their crates because they are less than 8 inches tall.
6/1 still heavy, more leaf tucking on Gelato.
6/2 Today's schedule is busy, busy with water, feed, measure, and pictures. Added cal-mag to the TPS1 just to make sure the problem doesnt return.
During this week, Both CBG's had some stretch
Gaia
5/27 14.5.
5/31
21' 6/2 24"
Circe 5/27 11.5
5/31 18"
6/2 22"
Wow 😗both grew over 10 inches this week.
Comparison on the difference on fabric pots and air pots:
Using a soil probe. Gaia's soil was the driest in the air pot ( also the biggest so I would expect more consumption). Circe in fabric was drier than the other gals in the tent. They are much smaller plants so they drink less water than either CBG plants.
Gelato (Lst)was slightly moist. It could be tent placement and less water is evaporating from her. Her lst progress is photograghed in week 8 cannabis links.
I gave each plant 2 liter of water with food. Some water drained into the pot tray except for Circe, so I added some water in the bottom of her tray to allow for wicking.
Next week Gaia will be in flower and Circe will start pre flower. No signs of flower formation on the other two,
The yellowing, It's on the bottom growth first, which means it's taking stored nutrients from older leaves to make new ones, Nitrogen is a mobile nutrient and fits the bill. Was it always planted in the fabric pot? Or was it airpot like the other more vibrant plant?
CBG1 aka Gaia has lighter color leaves yellowish green at the top but the lower leaves are darker green. Using TPS1 at a reduced rate. She was first in bloom. Her node structure is shorter than CBG2.
Nowhere close to harvest. What is going on
CBG2 leaves curl and fold down WHY? . Potted in fabric bag, seated on 3 stones in drain bin. Receives same fertilizer TPS1 and water schedule as all in tent. Was last to pop soil. Almost 10 inches taller than Gaia CBG1. I thought she was dehydrated from the fans blowing.
Your overwatering (the sag) and to much nitrogen ( the clawing leaves) This has caused some lockout issues in your plant. Test your runoff water and get your ec and ph back to proper levels for the substrate your using.
7/27 Fert values ec 2.13, ppm 1490, ph 6.5 Runoff values following 3 weeks flushing. Cream caramel and Gaia low ec 1.0 or less, 814 or 700 ppm. Ph 6.7 and 6.47 uptaking nutrients-ok
>Circe ec 1.86, ppm 1090 ph 6.0. Still nutrient lockout? Is it soil ph? And how do I fix?
you were overfeeding the plant from week 6 on, it looks like based on the diary. That's the primary cause of the curling and damage.
1,3-1,5 ec is a much better range to be in. you can always test a particular plant's boundaries, but most like this. Relative to environemtn, when near what is needed to provide for max growth rate, it takes weeks if not a month or more before you see if it is something that is building up or becoming deficient in the leaves. Then, you have all the relativistic relationships among the various nutrients in fertilizers to contend with. It's fairly complicated.
You can see the research represented in various hydro nutes like southern ag's, jack's, masterblend etc.. they all have a base of 5-12-26 plus or minus a bit here or there, and paired with calcium nitrate. these ratios have been systematically resolved through cross referencing more data than any one of use can possibly accrue with a small garden, or even a big residential garden. it ends up being somethign like 1:1:2 (7-7-15 is a better resolution, if i recall). Do that at 1,3 to 1,5 EC and enough ca/mg/s relative to your tap water, and bam.. it's smooth sailing. minor adjustments that take weeks or longer to see the results after that.
My CBG plants 112 days from seed are forming new calyx hairs after nutrients lockout. Are they revived and ready to harvest or starting over from scratch delaying harvest? For CBG do you wait to harvest at 20% amber or 100% milky? When do you harvest CBG or CBD?
Hi buddy,
he formation of new calyx hairs after nutrient lockout might indicate recovery, but it's important to focus on trichome development for harvest readiness. Harvest CBG-dominant strains when trichomes are mostly milky, and for CBD strains, aim for a mix of milky and a few amber trichomes. Always observe and monitor the plants closely to make an informed decision based on your desired cannabinoid content and effects.
but in your case you could pass your harved window already, that's where the plant starts to produce the banana nugs again.
But check trichs if still worth it and chop it sooner than later if worth it for you buddy :)
if you got any more questions feel free to follow and send me a DM :)
All the best and good luck!!
@KnightRider, except as stated as my mom's paintings, all art work is by Alphonse Mucha, a Czech artist from early 1900s. See week 1 veg for description of him and his work.
@KnightRider, because my daughter had many allergies when young, i started making my own laundry soap, cleaning disinfectant for bathroom, kitchen etc. Eliminate the toxic load.
@KnightRider, check back as the grow progresses. As i told @Ju_Bps, this gem will go in all my edies, H&B and cleaning products. Probably will post these recipes in the Recipe diary
I've yet to name any plants. "Bitch, hardy bitch, moany bitch. Sexy bitch." They're my names Iol
Also, I've been seeing a lot of ppl who are mentioning playing music to their plants.
Wonder if I can to a test with clones. Will be a bit hard as sound travels. Wonder if I use my beat ear pieces & put them on the sides of 1 real low, so the other can't hear🤣🤣 Either that r sound proofing. Or different rooms but, that changes environment and so on though, so idk how you'd do a fair music test to compare. #look-at mythbusters
Looking really well. Lovely white roots in their droves sticking through. They'll quickly clean up any runoff.
@Natrona,I like to name my plants after the strain as well, or more accurately in the "spirit of the strain and how they are progressing when working with them. typically the names come to me after the first 3 weeks of growth. gripping diary so far, looking forward to more entries.😊.
@gottagrowsometime, yes 🎶 does influence plant growth and health. Classical is what they like best. No Heavy metal, they will die.
I play my folk, new age, and dance music when I'm in the grow room. 🎶
@gottagrowsometime, 👋 I try to name my plants based on the first letter of the strain name. Except for the Goddesses. They are named for goddesses from mythology.
Interesting grow 👍I'll be keeping my eyes on this one I'm interested in usage report (CBG) also for a family member of mine that can't tolerate THC anymore (anxiety attacks). I wish you all the best for you your grow and family ✌️
37k TDS, wouldn't like to drink that by mistake 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Has happened to myself a few times. Think hit 50k tds lol.
Toothpaste. I have to look at this at my favourite rec diary
@Natrona,I see i forgot to congratulate you with your harvest(duh)
Congratulations!!
Very nicely done! but i know why your buds are so awesome, u have Tiger 💚 and Rambo💚 working for you😎
I have to say that there is something very therapeutic with regards to growing cannabis. They need so much to reach their full potential. They also give so much in return. Hoping that your cancer journey is at a place that you are on the winning side at the moment. I may be inspired to tray a CBG plant myself next season!! 💪
@Puffy_Clouds, thank you for the well wishes and healing energy💚💫 I am 3 yrs no disease but chemo and multiple radiations left lots of damage. That is where I'm f ocused on healing, detox these out of me.
