Lowered sf 1000D light on Day 18 until my new ac infinity evo6 bar light comes in three days. Straight Sohum soil with tap water ph’d down to 6.45. 10oz every three days now in a ring.
My first grow is almost at Day 30. Plant is roughly nine inches tall, i tried to LST but got scared and left it lol. going to order some LST clips and try that maybe. watering 12 oz every four days. seems to be drying up pretty quick and pot is light feeling again after a day or two. At week four since sprout and seeing about ten bud sites. Seems quick but maybe on track for that 8-10 seed to harvest schedule? Not sure. Compact plant doesnt seem to be very wode but maybe its genetics. Not wanting to introduce nutes because SoHum is supposed to last the entire life cycle with included nutes?
37.5 DLI, light is 18 inches from top of plant, will start to up my water schedule…
DLI of 44, bottom leaves showing deficencies so starting small dose of Tiger Bloom to see how it reacts. Christmas Tree shape but oh well, first grow. Smell is a bit stronger, buds forming. growing taller (10inches..) Half Way done!?
1/4 tbsp of Tigerbloom in gal of water. ph’d to 6.45 on day 38. fed 16 oz of it.
slurry tested soil due to yellow bottom leaf edges veins and tips. found it to be 6.8. Changing my water feedings feom 6.45 to 5.6 to counter it. doing this a few times before next tiger bloom. starting to see some trichs.
added 1teaspoon/gallon of calmag to hopefully help with yellowing
Day 50. Maybe a few weeks left? Nuggz getting bigger, seeing more defeciencies, yellowing bottom and now brownish spots. Trying calmag and lowering ph of tap water. Start watering slightly more… 20oz every two days?
Day 54! Trichs are clear mostly. Thinking I have 1-2 weeks left before chop? Seeing brown spots and yellowing leaves. run off around 6.3? watering at 6.0. VPD at 1.4-1.5 til the end. Need to execute this last part of the grow!! Pistils half white and half amber. Buds thickening which is cool, hopefully the have some good density.
Day 60! Trichs clear but starting to get cloudy i believe. Going 6.0-6.3 water rest of the way. hoping to harvest in 10 days or so? 1.4-1.5 VPD. squeezed main cola feels dense, smell is unreal fresh piney and earthy. hint of citrus. sticky as heck. Hopefully i can nail this dry and harvest and cure.
Pistils turned in, id say 75% amber. Trichs seems like they are getting more cloudy and milky. Seeing some clear and some cloudy. No amber trichs yet. Giving plant Water around 6.2 PH. Hoping to chop in 4 days? On Day 65 from sprout!
First grow, learned a ton along the way. 67 days from seed to harvest. Dried for
7 days, Curing so far at 4 weeks. Taste is harsh after a few weeks, will keep trying. Smell returned after a couple weeks of curing in Mason Jars. Boveda Pack mainting 61-62% humidity.
11/18/23: Hoping for 1-2 Ounces on first grow!
11/22: 4 days into dry, buds definetly shrunk and posted a picture to compare. starting to feel crunchy on outside. main cola is still soft and moist on the top part. hoping for only
4-6 more days then jar!!
11/26/23: Dried for almost 8 days. Trimmed and jarred! just under 3/4 of an ounce! Room for growth for sure! Look really frosty and cant wait to try it! Beginning to cure now!
@AznAutoMN, Thats the right way to the right things. And then learn what does not work for you or find things that work even better and boom: you are set 😊 happy growing!🌱🌞🍀
Hi MNGrower22! Nice to see someone from MN. Your grow looks great! We just started and are really enjoying it. Looking forward to seeing your harvest pics.
@AznAutoMN, I found what I needed on Reddit. Everything is running excellent! Perfect numbers. The key was setting the humidifier VPD. The girls are very happy this morning and we're seeing signs of them taking up nutes. Thank you so much for your support!
Happy Thanksgiving!
@KikiMinnekannabis,what is your temp at? i have my cloudforge port set to “VPD” with a trigger of whatever the chart tells me to be at (1.2,1.3,etc) let your soil dry and lift your bucket to tell when you need to water again. i was doing like 20oz every couple days
@Lemonhazelover,ive barely used tiger bloom just last week. otherwise just water from the start. i lowered my water ph to try and counter high run off ph, not sure what elese to do
@KingSalomonsWeed, I hope so man!! Trichs are crystal clear and I have a vacation to go on December 18th 😅Hope i can execute the harvest,dry,cure and burping before that day!!
