Last week I made some progress with the mainline structure: I removed the 2nd node and topped the 4th one on both sides. Then I did some new LST, and this week I should top her for the last time. ScrOG is coming, baby!
Day 36: I transplanted the princess to her final 20L AirPot, then re-did all the LST and decreased lamp distance to 60cm. Then I fed her @ 0.5ml/L (1.5L of tap water) because new leaves were fading to yellow. But since I didn’t get any runoff, I planned to give more water before next week.
Day 40: Well, I think 0.5ml/L of Crescita (Vegetative) is a little too much for her. Some leaves are curling down again (the same happened two weeks ago), so today I partially flushed with 4.5L of tap water (PH 6.5), and finally got that runoff out. PPM runoff was near 2200, but I think I flushed some of the nutrients coming with new soil too. I don’t think it’s a very reliable result.
But I think I finally found the right dosage. Since she’s very sensible to nutrients, PPM has to stay very low. With BioMagno, for veg time, at least, I think you should alternate:
1. 0.25ml/L dosage of Crescita (Vegetative) and 0.5ml/L of Rizostimo and Activator
2. Just water
This amount should give the plant enough food and the right time to absorb it.
Today I also topped the 4th node of the 4 branches attached to the first node of the main structure 🧐 Ok, well, it’s a little messy to explain, but I’m talking about the four ones near the middle of the plant! I uploaded a photo that clearly shows where I topped 😉
Dude! Lookn great and gotta be coming to the end in short order. How many weeks u think u have left? Read the comment and have to say the following - #1. Think we’ve all seen nute def. and toxicity on GD/in our grows at some point and while there are signs on her you obviously caught it and rectified it early (in all instances). You’re wayyy too hard on yourself 😉. I sincerely doubt this plant has suffered too much as a result👍. Sign of a diligent grower homie😀. #2. I agree with your diagnosis - that spotting looks like cal. Def. to me too. Good news is u gotta be close to the finish now and I don’t think it will have any overt impact on harvest. In short - you rocked this scrog regardless and I’d love to see the follow up grow now that you have some experience with the strain. Been a great read bro, we are not worthy!!!! 👍👊😎.
@Silky_smooth, Hey there!!!! Don’t worry for the ones who died! I’m sure you’ll do better things next time, and I’ll be following again, and again, and again, until you’ll reach the harvest! Come one little Silky!!!! 😎💪
mate , you are amazing for your perseverance with this one. . you deserve a brilliant result and have worked to create one. Brilliant job and so rooting for you
@TOTEM, My pleasure mate. You have taken a hit for the team for sure and satisfied a lot of possible growers of grinspoon. Knowing its difficult reputation and lengthy flowering time has cost you immensely no doubt. Thanks for showing its potential and the sacrifice needed to grow this masterpiece. Barneys Seeds need to see this grow and use your agreed pics to show it off properly. When your sat back with a fridge full of chocolate ( hash brownie ones maybe?) and a bowl full of her fruit , you will be grinning from ear to ear , with slits for eyes and solving the worlds problems easily !!!. Top notch mate
@Tonino, Thank you brother, comments like this are always VERY motivating, and I never take them for granted! You know, I was thinking about how GD community stimulates growers to continuously improve over time, and it works very well! And what worked pretty well since the very start was pro growers like you motivating beginners growers like me to learn and explore new and fascinating ways to grow these plants. So thank you x2 👊
@Ga4rd2en0er, Haha! Yes I'm still doing some tests vaping at different temps, and trying to define the high in a proper way by comparing more trips and personal sensations! I think I'll take some more days, but not much more!! Fingers crossed! 😃
I applaude you for your patience. Its such a prehistoric looking version of cannabis and i am interested in hearing what you have to say about the smell, taste and, of course, the buzz!
cant believe shes down after all that bro thought she was gonna go on and on I would have not lasted as long as you have... at least other 12 wk strains will seem like a breeze to you now iv been checking magnetous diaries and noticed he not been about will he be updating some harvest pics of his ? looking forward to seeing some dry pics and a harvest report from you you killed it 👊👊👍
@biggreens420, Thank you very much bro!! Your support has been really precious like always!! I'd call it essential!!!! Like the first one you sent me when I joined GD! High five!!! 🙌👊
I admire your grow so much I'm practicing with some unknown seeds while waiting for my good stuff to come so I do it right. I appreciate the detail you took!
I'm not an expert, and many many people around know much more than me, even you @TOTEM. But i cant tell you my experience this summer. I had a awesome Lemon Zkittle, that begin to do the same as yours in the leafs, i asked to a friend and he tell me to irrigate adding "Growing Base nutrient", i can tell you that it didn't fixed it, but it helped much, as the growing base nutrient slow down the yellowing much. Enough to end the harvest.
Apart of this, i will tell you again Super awesome job in all ways!!! (Growing, Imaginering and post-processing).
Green regards!!!!
@Cogollo_eu, Thanks for sharing your experience bro. Natural senescence will turn leaves to yellow because plants will suck energies from them for the final phase of flowering. Sometimes that natural food is not enough, so you have to add a little more by your own, if you’re still not in the final flush phase. That’s what happened to me!
Thank you for the kind words bro!! So much appreciated. My old Silver Haze scrog helped me a lot with the imaginering process of this king of scrog. The fact that you’re growing a sativa that will stretch a lot when you flip her to 12/12, and how you get slowly used to their net/scrog filling rate. It’s all about trial and error.
Happy growing bro!!!!
Must be driving you crazy you do everything right and she punishes you for it😭 hang in there mate fingers crossed she starts putting in as much effort as you have🤞🤞🤞
