24hrs in filtered water with Rhizotonic @ 4ml/L. Then placed in medium that was washed and nutrients added. Seed sprouted 2 days after germination. Will not water until medium is dry at the top to save from over watering. At this stage the sedling is under a cheap CFL with a water bottle over the top to keep humidity up.
There is three on the go now, two are 4 days behind the one pictured. Watering 3-4 times a day by syringe. Light is a sf2000 at 250umol.
It has started to form roots and put a little size one. I think these may explode in the future. Week three I will started adding Canazym to the mixture and put on the auto watering system
They have started to fill out this week. Watering is now auto 600ml 2 hours after lights on 400ml halfway through and 400 2 hours prior to lights off. Watering is slowly increasing everyday. Run off PH 6.2 and EC 1.3. light at the end of the week was set at 80% at 18in, PPFD is sitting around 450-500. Leaf temp still holding at 23-24°C and maintaining a VPD of 0.8-1. Adding CO2 bags at the end of this week to bump up the levels from 500 to 900-1200.
End of the week it's started to really thicken up and become short and bushy at 13cm (5 inches) at the end of this week. 13 inches from fan to fan tip. Gonna need some info of what to do real soon
I am in week two of veg and was wondering if the leaves are meant to be the colour they are or are they a little pale? They were transplanted into 5gal pots the begging of the week. I started Cannazym and upped the Rhyzo to 4ml/l
First time giving this a go, don't be too harsh
This a picture under a grow light? You will be surprised by how pale it makes a lush leaf look. If you can easily do so, look at that point with regular room lighting.. bet it's quite a bit darker than you think it is. It's good to learn how your light impacats what you see... it'll make certain symptoms more easily visible and earlier but more difficult to assess lushness/darkness of leaves.
Adding calmag to my nutrient solution before or after has made it cloudy and precipitate in 24 hours. I've tried mixing it well before nutes and we'll after no change. I know foliar spray when the plants need extra Cal or Mag, found it has been the easiest way the Canna Nutrients
Well it looks like I'm going to have a lot of little ones. . . I have upped the nutes to around 1.8 feeding twice a day about 3L ea fertigation. I am now able to see the difference between the three plants. Two are the same and the thing at the front is seems to be a completely different pheno.
I am still thinking that I was a little to ambitious with the size
I am now seeing how hard I can push these girls. My EC is just over 2 though to counter this every third fertigation is very light, around 0.6-0.7 to try and mitigate the nute burn. I did miss two water only or light feedings due to my hectic schedule. So I believe I'm in for some burn 🔥 I can see come of the leaves curling though I think it might be too late.
Due to the dense plants and the fact that I'm greedy I have now purchased another 400w detachable 6 bar led which will be set up on the four corners and probably throw the two spare underneith. . . . Why because I have them.
CO2 bags are in and I am recircing the air during the lights on period with the room. I do have fresh air coming in as well though.
The photos are the end of week 3
Well thanks to the guys on here for confirming my suspicions I have burnt the F#@k out of plant one, the other two it didn't seem to worry them too much.
They have been flushed although probably too late. Nutrients lowered and going to nurse them through. I may have wrecked this grow though it was always about learning through trial and error I guess.
New lights are in around the sides and I am starting to get growth horizontally towards them. As I suspected my little trial has freed up some space in between the mains. I have and am not lollipopping or any heavy trimming.
As this is my first im just eager to see what it does on its own before I start playing with it too much
I missed photos at the end of week 4 though these are 2 days into week 5. I'm
Well the burn is really starting to come out this week. Shows how long it takes to resolve of the leaves. The first real signs that you messed up are well and truly past when the damage is done.
✔️ another lesson learned, dont push them so hard.
As you may have seen I have switched to a 2 part bloom for less N and a touch more
Missed decent photos from this week though I've got a couple of close ups of the trics (the best i could), they are still mostly clear at this point with plants 2&3 lagging behind. They seem to have been a little stunted in growth from the nutrient burn. Fingers crossed, I can pull this off.
End of week 7 and I've been doing some reading. I'm thinking because I decided yo go big or go home I may need to do a progressive Harvarst. As you can see in the photos some of the bigger colas are starting to turn amber.
Does anyone have any information or tips and tricks. It would be much appreciated.
All in all I'm happy with the end result, would love to hear any feed back. Did I hurt the yeild at 432gm? Blue Dream awesome smoke couldn't move for hours 💙
