Added a new 150watt mars hydro to the tent. Still getting used to how close an percentage the dimmer should be because they stretched more than I would have liked but they are still looking healthy. Been battling with my humidity as well its a bit low. If it was in flowering it would be good. Got a humidifier coming tomorrow so lets see If i can get it in the 60s or around it at least for now. I've been battling with my humidity mainly. When my intake fan is running it completely sucks all humidity out and takes it into the 40s which isn't good at this stage of the plants life. I do have a Elechomes 4.5l Humidifier that should be arriving tomorrow so hopefully that will solve my issues and help me get my humidity up in the 60s at least. I also upped my LED PAR to around 240-265 on each of the canopy's. I have my SF-1000 and Mars Hydra TS1000 daisy chained together. I did have to get a 2 outlet timer so that they both shut off at the same time but other than that they work quite nicely together with them having dimmer switches. They put off nice bit of light and got the girls growing quite nicely and praying now. I am new to this scene of indoor grows and doing my best to learn and asking a lot of questions but that's part of it. I'm quite concerned when I start giving them nutes though cause I don't want to over do it but I switched to the FLORA TRIO line and have a good chart for autos made by HOWWEGROW on youtube. Wish me luck on my 1st grow!
There getting there i've slowly been uppin my par to test how the plants react today on the 15th i've raised them up to nearly 500 par at 20-24 inches on each plant to see how they react. They perked up some at 450 par at 24 inches so hoping this helps and doesn't over due it. Still not feeding nutes do to the fact im using a 50/50 mix of FFOF and Happy frog.
From day 14-16 not much happened besides a uppin the light intensity some which they did like. I've not seen a whole lot of growth going on but i could just be expecting something that isn't going to happen. Its def there just not as much as i thought. Day 17 I began LST. Don't mind if it looks ugly take it mind this is my first ever grow indoors with LED lights or any type of lights at that. Grew a few outdoors but never really tried to do anything just was let them do whatever and gave them some bs from time to time lol. It seems that they could be semi stressed out which i expect because the first week I let my ADD keep fking with the light dimmer. Lesson Learned won't be doing that anymore. This week I also took the ethernet cable off between the two lights so i could use them separately with them being two different brand of lights I felt like i was better off doing that which I believe has made a difference in me using them. I also didn't realize that my PHOTONE app wasn't calibrated with android so i went ahead and got the 6 dollar version on IOS. If you don't own a PAR Meter I suggest getting PHOTONE you won't be disappointed. As for this week though Its been good I've learned a lot and still have a lot to learn but its all it a days work. All i can say is just have fun and keep going. Things will happen good and bad just work through them. Ohhhh did I mention that these two Ladies smell FANTASTIC already I'm shocked that that have such a dank smell coming from them already with only being little over a few weeks old. Still only getting a basic PH Water of about 6.3-6.5 and i've upped the watering to around 1.5L per to see how they like it or not.
It's a little early for LST. But it looks like you have the right idea.
After 3 weeks is when the fun begins and growth starts to explode so every 4 days I will go in and tie down . The aim is to spread the canopy and keep it as even as possible. That way you get more dense uniform buds.
Luckily for us plants give us time . So if you see a top growing above the canopy just tie it down as you go. Before you know it your tent will be full .good luck ✌️🌱
When you LST your plant make sure you aren't just tying it for the sake of it, make sure you're working towards a goal and a reason. I end up adjusting often (something like twice a week) but it all depends on how you're shaping your plant and how fast it's growing.
With regards to your current LST, I think it's good, very similar to my LSD-25 Grow where I started LST a bit late but the tied the main stem down and ended up with a fat main cola and decent fat side colas because they were around the same height
Good luck with your grow and enjoy it
Going into week 4 with decent under growth coming up since the LST. Take it mind this is my first grow and I didn't off set the seed when I planted it so its touching the pots sadly. Lesson learned for the next grow though. I do believe I see pistils only one of the plants the other not so sure yet. Maybe some 1 can look at the picture and help me confirm if i'm crazy or not lol. Still haven't fed them Nutes cause of the FFOF/HF mixture. PH of 6.3-6.5 round about. One of the pots is plastic and other is fabric. I've noticed the fabric pot dries out much faster than the plastic so its causing different watering times for the plants which I don't like. Do believe i'm going to stick to the fabric pots from now on because there much easier least in my preference anyway. There still not taking alot of water yet and i'm kind of afraid to really overwater them because of it. Gave the fabric guy with the bigger leafs 2L today which didn't give me any run off in the 5 Gal pot. The plastic is 4 gallon and stays more moist by about a day. We be keeping an eye on them and hopefully within next few weeks I can start adding a little bit of nutes to them. Day 21-22 first sign of pre flowers on my chunkiest plant. Should be some explosive growth starting. Hopefully the other one isn't far behind.
Having issues with one possibly stunted. With not much growth been super busy lately so they haven't got the love they should get. Also had a pH issue on one. The other plant is growing quite well still light feeds because the ocean forest soil I got was super hot. Which has made me not a fan of it at all and don't use on autos
This grow has went tits up on me. I've got behind on it from irl stuff going on. Had a pH issue on one plant run off was 5.4 trying to fix that currently. Darker plant I do believe is stunted but I'm learning need to also learn how to journal better. pH in the stunted plant run off was 6.1 which is a good sign but starting lst on it early wasn't good to do hopefully I can salvage this grow
@Green_Man_420, Thanks thats one thing i've been doing is opening at least one and I leave on on the top because I have my intake set up outside to pull the air out and pulls it in through the opening at the top. But my humidity stays around 50-55 in my place as is.
Nice bro👌
I do feel like she will go into flowering next week or following when mine grow new set of leaves look like your now, look long and little green-yellowish, and will see some hair at her node
@Pecca,yours look healthy bro!
I just start growing too (3rd times now) and i know how excited was 😆 but to be clear same strain not same activities. Once I grow bluedream 2seeds one go flower at week3 other one go at late week5
It up to seed and condition. Goodluck
@kardel,that's what I'm hoping for. I have a buddy that's growing the same strain as me and his started to flower around day 30. I'm just now at day 22.
