Friends, welcome to my report! I am from Russia and immediately want to apologize for bad english. The Google Translate will assist in communication.
This is not my first growing experience, but I will be happy for your help and advice. I really want to learn from your growing experience. Your cultivation is better developed than ours, so do not scold me much!
I'll tell you a little about the conditions grown.
I will grow two strain. 1) Jack Herer 2) Super Lemon Haze by Green House Seeds. I will feed Jack with mineral fertilizers + stimulants, and Lemon with organic + stimulants.
Growbox:
The growbox was assembled by itself from wooden slats.
- Height: 750mm.
- Width: 480mm.
- Depth: 450mm.
The walls are covered with a film Mylar.
Lighting:
- At the time of the vegetative stage - HID 150W, I will add 50W LED to the flowering. Installed cooltube, cooled by a computer cooler 80х80mm.
Ventilation:
- Air outflow - computer cooler 120x120mm.
- Air flow is passive (hole 210x140mm).
- The plant blows a computer cooler 120x120mm.
Substrate:
- Coco Canna.
Fertilizers:
- Jack Herer- GHE Flora Series (micro/ gro/ blom).
- Super Lemon Haze- BioBizz (bio- grow/ bio- bloom).
Stimulants:
- Root Stimulator, B. A. C.
- Diamond Nectar, GHE.
- TopMax, bloom stimulator BioBizz.
- Alg- A- Mic, BioBizz.
- Mineral Magic, GHE.
pH UP/ pH DOWN by GHE.
Devices:
- pH meter, TDS meter, thermohygrometer.
Water:
- Water from the water supply. 60- 100 ppm. pH 7.0
I plant seeds in coconut tablets UGro Plug. Very comfortable. Seeds sprout two days after planting.
Both seeds have already germinated. Jack is six days old. Lemon planted later, sprouted today.
Thank you for your attention! See you next week. Peace for everyone!
@OutForRealbeanCarib, it's not like nutritional deficiencies :(
But I will give today the first portion of fertilizer. Let's see what will happen.
And I do not have Сal- mag. I will do without him
Thanks for the reply, bro!
Privet. Looks like u are serving to Much nutrients. U might want to look up the Lucas formula. I went half strenght the first 6-7 weeks. Almost did not add any Flora Gro (N). I would flush with 4 liter of water. Ph to 6.5 to Maybe correct low ph value in medium. Wait 5 days and give half strenght nutrients. It might work
@AlexHeadHunter, Cool. For now i only use canna and a little advanced nutrients that i have left. Did a really good job last harvest. Now that i switched to HPS from weak LED, i see bigger results so i guess ill use canna for now.
@PureMedicin, If you want to improve the taste then use organic fertilizers. With organic and coconut you get a good harvest. Both big and tasty ;)
Yes, of course, drainage holes are required.
@AlexHeadHunter, This is great info thank u. I now used GHE 2-3 grows cant seem to make it work the way i truely want it. So i make the switch to soil. Also i experience a bit more taste in soil. Coco makes up for some explosive growth tho. Do u have holes to drain water from ur containers/pot ? :)
@AlexHeadHunter, sorry bud lol , I'm an animal lover, I rescue cats , yr cat looks so cute bless but cats are well known plant killers lolol , happy growing bud
@MissFlowerPower420420420,Thank you) True, I didn’t understand what you wrote 😂. But think something good 😉. I'm Russian and I do not understand your slang)
Dude I love your cat and the grow box you built, it looks amazing. Canna is a really good brand and makes good coco. If you haven’t soaked with 1/4-1/5 amount of nutes with coco, I’d start that as fresh coco needs nutrients in order for your plant to feed. In soil, it’s a different story. Also, I’d recommend adding some perlite if you can. Your roots will appreciate along with you when you water your babies. Good luck!!
@MaryJaneUSA, Bro, thanks for the kind words! Bagheera and I are very pleased. Yes, you are right, perlite is necessary. And it's time to fertilize too. So I did it all. Thanks for the advice!
