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!
Day 8/3. (8 for Jack and 3 for Lemon)
- HELP! Jack started having problems. Someone tell me why this is happening? After the transplant, I poured 100 ml of water. 100 ppm, pH 5.6. Added Root stim, 1 drop per liter.
Tonight watered light solution (GHE): micro- 0.5 ml/l, gro- 0.5 ml/l, bloom- 0.5 ml/l, diamond nectar 0.5 ml/l. 380 ppm, pH 5.8. Volume- 200 ml. Watering divide twice. Morning and afternoon.
Added to coco perlite. Proportion 1/4.
- Lemon is fine. I didn't do anything with lemon
Day 9/4.
- Jack feels better. The problem has stopped and growth continues. I think this problem was due to overflow.
- For Lemon prepared his first solution (BioBizz): gro- 0.5 ml/l, bloom- 0.5 ml/l, diamond nectar(ghe)- 0.5 ml/l, microbiological fertilizer- 1 ml/l. 330 ppm, pH 5.8. Volume- 100 ml.
- Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz.
Day 10/5.
- Jack is fine. Did not do anything
- Lemon is fine. Did not do anything
- Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz.
Day 11/6.
- Jack Solution: micro- 0,8 ml/l, gro- 0.8 ml/l, bloom- 0.8 ml/l, diamond nectar- 0.8 ml/l. 550 ppm, pH 5.8. Vol- 200 ml. Watering divide twice. Morning and afternoon.
- Lemon solution: as in the last watering.
- Both plants are sprayed with a solution of BioBizz.
I start to remove cups from them so that they get used to low humidity.
Day 14/9. (14 for Jack and 9 for Lemon)
- Bagheera bit off a piece of leaf from a Lemon😞
- Jack is fine.
Day 15/10.
- Jack Solution: micro- 1.35 ml/l, gro- 1.2 ml/l, bloom- 1.6 ml/l, diamond nectar- 2 ml/l, root juice(biobizz)- 4 ml/l, alg a mic(biobizz)- 1 ml/l, mineral magic- 20 ml/l.

574 ppm, pH 5.9, Vol- 0.5 l.
Day 18/13.
- Jack is fine.
- Lemon develops slowly. I think this is because of the mutation of the second pair of leaves.
Day 19/14.
- Jack Solution: micro- 1.35 ml/l, gro- 1.2 ml/l, bloom- 1.6 ml/l, diamond nectar- 2 ml/l, root juice(biobizz)- 2 ml/l, alg a mic(biobizz)- 1 ml/l, mineral magic- 20 ml/l.
760 ppm, pH 5.8. Vol- 0.5 l.
- Lemon solution: gro- 0.7 ml/l, bloom- 0.5 ml/l, root juice- 3 ml/l, alg a mic- 1 ml/l diamond nectar(ghe)- 1 ml/l, microbiological fertilizer- 1 ml/l, mineral magic(ghe)- 20 ml/l..
470 ppm, pH 5.7, Vol- 0.3 l.
Day 21/16.
- Jack is fine.
- Transplanted Lemon in the main pot of 5.7 liters. To the coconut added 1.5 liters of perlite. Coconut brand Ugro.
Soaked in solution Biobizz: gro- 1 ml/l, bloom- 0,5 ml/l, root juice- 4 ml/l, alg a mic- 1 ml/l diamond nectar(ghe)- 2 ml/l, microbiological fertilizer- 1 ml/l, mineral magic(ghe)- 20 ml/l. pH 5.5, Vol- 1.5 l.
The day for transplantation chose the lunar calendar. And then all the significant actions will be carried out on the lunar calendar.
Day 23/18. (23 for Jack and 18 for Lemon).
- Jack Solution: micro- 1.75 ml/l, gro- 1.7 ml/l, bloom- 2 ml/l, diamond nectar- 2 ml/l, root juice(biobizz)- 4 ml/l, alg a mic(biobizz)- 1 ml/l, mineral magic- 20 ml/l. 1000 ppm, pH 5.8. Vol- 0.5 l.
-Lemon continues to mutate. The third pair also underwent a mutation. One leaf has not fully developed. Very slow growth.
Day 24/19
Added two more household LED lamps. 2x7W, 2700K, 580 lumens.
Day 25/20.
- Did Jack topping. Cut the fifth pair of leaves. I chose the day for cutting by the lunar calendar.
Made the defoliation of the lowest colas.
P.S.
12 hours after topping and defoliation. Jack feels great. As if he didn't notice anything.
- Lemon still slows down in development. But its root system is developing well. The pot has a clear bottom and I see how the roots develop. I think when he starts to grow normal leaves, he will grow very quickly ... I hope so.
Day 26/21.
-Today, Jack had his first training.
- I inspected the young leaves of Lemon and it seems that they grow healthy. I hope that now Lemon will start growing normally.
- Jack is growing well. I tear off large leaves that cover the light.
- Lemon has nutritional problems. I did not understand what it is. I think it is phosphorus or potassium. I add to the solution Micro and Bloom GHE.
Lemon began training.
- This week the plants showed good growth.
I continue to bend branches and tear off large leaves.
The vegetation stage took a lot of time. This is due to the fact that there were problems with plants because of my inexperience. And because of the lemon mutation at the very beginning too.
- From next week I transfer to 12/12 mode. These babies have time to bloom😥
- This week switched the lighting mode to 12/12.
- Changed the composition of the solution. Now I mix Biobiz with GHE.
micro (ghe)- 1.7 ml/l.
grow (biobizz)- 1.0 ml/l.
bloom (biobizz)- 1.0 ml/l.
root juice - 4 ml/l.
diamond nectar- 2 ml/l.
alg a mic- 1 ml/l.
mineral magic- 20 ml/l. (cook as written on the package) Аdd with every watering.
microbiological fertilizer- 1 ml/l.
- Every day I spray leaves with a light solution of biobizz. And once a week with a solution with fertilizers for foliar feeding NPK: 20/20/20.
- Plants feel good. I continue to bend branches and tear off large leaves. Preparing for pre-bloom.
@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!
