Seeds where presoaked1* for a few hours till submergence occurred in shot glasses and put in a Bio tabs also presoaked2* plug and then placed in a 0.5 liters pot filled with Biobizz Light Mix @ 1.2EC and 6.2pH soil.
presoaked1*: Base water RODI 20 ml + Biobizz cal mag at 0.03 EC
presoaked2*: Base water RODI 0.5 liters + Biobizz Cal Mag @ 1ml/lt + 1 gram powder of Bio tabs Bactrex & Mycotrex + Biobizz Root Juice @ 1ml/lt +.
pH measured @ 6.5 and EC was about 0.350
Emergence, Happy birthday plants! 1st day of sprouting. transferred to the hut in their sprouting pots *(3rd pic) for their first week of vegetation. For the first days even the whole week i ll be using a generic led bar at 6500 k unless something happens. a single oscillating fan will provide constant air movement in the grow space and heat requirements will be provided by a bathroom heater @ 15 mins intervals. A second grow tent 80 watts heat tube is placed at 30 cm distance below the seedlings pot bottoms thus lightly warming the substrate.
* the plants will be transplanted in the 17 ltrs final pots at the end of week 2. EDIT CORRECTION: end of week 1 MARCH 10
For the OG Kush the final medium will be Bio bizz All Mix.
For the Amnesia Haze final medium will be Biobizz Light Mix with two Bio tabs inserted during week 2 of vegetation.
Into their final containers
0.2ltrs of RODI water for each plant
"Dusted" holes with Great white 3gr and Symbiotic Pro 3gr for each plant.
Dusted top soil with DE for pest prevention.
At the end of the week I'll massage the leaves with Neem oil spraying solution for pest prevention.
Plants are growing perfectly and no issues whatsoever till now. Nothing administered. No water, no nutrients apart from misting occasionally, plus Pyrethrin application over and under leaves. The medium for both plants is slowly and gradually drying according to plans. Some extreme fluctuations over general Rh were encountered and a humidifier inserted in the system. Also leaf temps are a little high but not to a worrying extend.
Their first Neem oil leaf drench massage. Their first fertigation or watering.
For the Og kush the third week Biobizz nutrient dose was followed. The only addition to the third week All Mix dosology was the inclusion of Alg a mic. At the above rate + Great white + bactrex. The above list of nutrients correspond to the OG KUSH Allmix schedule and doses.
Fot the amnesia haze the watering had only Bactrex, White sark and Pro symbiotic at the doses listed above. No pH was adjusted nor measured and no EC either.
*03/29 UPDATE*
Since no option given for "breaking down" each strain individually ragarding the Nutrients section I ll update the irrigation/fertigation/nutrient regimen for each week in this section. Each time something changes on the Nutrients section it ll always be the last used doses of nutrients only for the OG Kush strain. For the Amnesia only CalMag treated water will be given in alternate irrigations along with a twice a week bacteria introduction to the system. So, today
both plants got 1.8 lts of RODI CalMag treated water to .340EC with a controlled pH of 6.3. The Amnesia had a significantly higher runoff which I didn't anticipate nor understand but I'll find out why for sure.
Some light LST directional guiding was given to the plants for forming purposes and future canopy levelling.
In the Grow Hut since day one the plants are continuously enjoying the company of Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia s music. They love it!
*03/30 UPDATE*
The best possible outcome regarding live phytoprotection by beneficial insects for pest control.
As of yesterday I have two unidentified tiny sliders, possibly common garden ones and as of today a Coccinellidae sp. larvae running around the canopy (check the video) Hope for many more of them sweet protectors. Neem oil along with DE has successfully helped in deterring some Gnat "congregation".
*03/31 UPDATE*
Plants are growing strong and vigorous. Some LST done and their new canopy hairdo can be seen in the pics.
04/01
all going well. nothing but some canopy maintenance LST type and some bottom flower sites removal from the lowest/first branches age wise. We're in the first stages of flowering.
*UPDATE 04/03*
Watered them both.
*UPDATE 04/06*
irrigation for both 1.7ltrs each rodi cal mag treated water.
Goin ok. I'll update.,
*UPDATE 04/13*
Attis has the power (full throttle) @ 30 cm from the top, without any noticeable problems regarding light stress etc to raise DLI close to 47 but I don't have a Co2 gen so I ll stick to 40 ish or 42 max.
*UPDATE 04/14*
irrigation @ 2.5 lts rodi each, allowed 20% runoff
*04/16 UPDATE*
Grow conditions section hasn't been updated for the last four weeks (4,5,6,7). I ll update the values soon.
*04/18 UPDATE*
Fertigation for OG Kush only, again, nutrient section values refers only to OG Kush which refers is in All Mix soil with no amendments whatsoever.
1.7 Lt RODI Cal Mag treated water @4ml with an EC of 0.245, 1 gr of bennies, 10ml PK boost by Biotabs. Blend pH @5.7 and EC @ 2.45.
Adjusted with 20 drops of pH up to pH 6.5 and final EC @ 2.5ish.
Don't fret or comment about the high EC all is and will be fine.
Irrigation for Amnesia haze,
2.0ltrs of RODI base water Call Mag treated @0.24, 1 gram of bennies, the same bennies like OG and trace amounts of Bio PK boost 3ml/lt @ 0.45 EC. TOTAL EC @0.66 ish. pH adjusted to 6.5. Allowed for 10% runoff.
p.s.1 not that anyone cares but I sprained my ankle.... nasty...:)
p.s.2 due to LST and bending manipulation I cant measure the exact height due to twists and turns:))) I ll try to get a number with my measuring tape.
p.s.3 the height value in the growing conditions as always refers to the OG Kush in full bloom and for the apical stem
The measured height for the Amnesia apical stem is only 40 cm in full bloom.
p.s.4 just a find in my own practices, Biobizz pH down is helluva stong people, at least when used with just cal mag buffers at 0.25 EC water. Just the opposite for the pH up, way too weak in the above scenario.
*UPDATE 04/21*
Full Biobizz schedule 8th week fertigation for OG Kush
Lower leaves gradually come to a chlorotic state due to N movement to the top. An expected outcome due to no N administration since weeks.
*UPDATE 03/24*
Irrigations for Amnesia Haze
@1.8 lts of cal mag treated RODI water @0.3EC pH 6.5
*UPDATE 04/24*
Pics uploaded since a long time ago. The Amnesia is already at peak blooming, rather short and to the highest limit of nutrient uptake with significant clawing and dark foliage with nothing else going wrong whatsoever. Nutrient burn is virtually non existent but the plant is clearly in its limits and anything more than that should bring it to halt and burn. Orgatrex is the culprit here. It took some more than needed and it cope rather good:)
Testing for this strain has concluded, same goes for the OG Kush which bulks up rather slow.
Nutrient administration for both them plants is over from now on.
The young one is half a week old. And it ll take the place of one of them along with a BCN Critical from seed stockers.
