I think I've been having Ph problems probably from my pen. Switched to AN Sensi fed once, will flush this week and see how it goes. Moving up the lights daily at this point, she's very fast.
Day 43:Removed huge fan leaves to give some of these lower buds more light, especially under my T5s
She's currently 2 feet tall. Looking good
Day 49: Getting frosty!
She's only had water (2gal every few days) since I noticed the nute burn, since then the nute burn is still on the move now hitting the sugar leaves. also most of fan leaves have rusty tips/edges with small yellow dots similar to week 4.
Other then that the buds are fattening and becoming frosty. She's smells great and the buds are really sticky
Think she'll finish by Day 75?
Day60: Still giving water, maybe will try to feed her next watering. The temps have been high this week which contributed to some of the nute burn. Still chuggin along though.
Day 64: Somehow didn't notice a 5 or 6 bright yellow leaves, hurried up and fed her. Also just noticing a few red hairs here and there. She smells very sweet like cotton candy.
Day 69: Strain odor pretty strong, more red hairs. Seem to be fattening up nicely,
Day 77: I'll probably let her ride for 7 more days so this will be the last week of the diary. So far the plant has performed extremely well and can't wait to chop her.
All around great plant. I started some LST but quickly took them off after watching the canopy forming very evenly, true to it's description it had at least 1 side branch that grew fat and even grew taller then the main cola. DBC F2 seem to be taller then the original, mine reaching 24in tall. Short and bushy. She purple'd up alot near the end, If your growing DBC F2 expect her to color up nicely, I wouldn't recommend letting her get this yellow however. She's smells very sweet and berry. She smelled great while growing, not to strong but noticeable. Very frosty leaves/stems that made incredible hash with great flavor. The stone is great for after a long day. Very "heavy eye lids" feeling and munchies with more. Mephisto sells great beans and their descriptions of their strains are spot on.
Looking absolutely beautiful. You'll give Tony The Tiger a run for his money with these Frosted Flakes. Great work buddy. Keep it up. I cannot wait to see the harvest!
At what ppm were you feeding? I've had a similar issue once , my first coco attempt, it turns out I just needed to get used to watering even though it seems wet.
I was waiting for the pots to get lighter but this causes PH swing inside coco .
As soon as I begun watering religiously once per day no matter how wet the medium seems, problems ceased
@kunkgrow, I think your spot on. It took me half this grow to stop treating it like soil before I figured that out.. you confirmed it 👍
How much water do you give them? More then a gallon?
You are doing great work with those T5's buddy. I'm always considering adding T5's to my LED's and now it's official. Next grow I will be doing it for sure. Great diary and even better work. Keep it up!
Cheers!
She still needs Nitrogen during the first 2-3 weeks of flowering cycle.
Don't decrease Nitrogen too early, otherwise she's gonna use the Nitrogen from the bottom leaves to save the tops, you still need to add some Nitrogen during the transition and the flowers opening phases this is where she stretch a lot, and she needs Nitrogen to support the stretch.
Or just tuck/trip/bend leaves blocking other flowers..
I tend to do to much, so I really try hard to do little to nothing
Last grow I defoliated at week 3 just to half kill my shit cuz now I had to much light, lost one plant and had to chop another early
@TwistedT, symptoms are mild so is difficult to have a 100% diagnose, keep a close eye to the following problems:
A-Leaf Septoria(Yellow Leaf Spot).
B-PH Fluctuations(as you suggest).
C- Calcium / manganese(not mag) deficiencies. A cal mag is easy to introduce and can help in coco anyway.
D-Check with a magnifying lens up and underneath the affected leaves for pests, to make sure.
As the AN has the PH perfect and the other line you calibrate manually, i suggest you stick to one of them only as the base.
@kunkgrow, I was unfortunately. She got 4ml/liter of Bloom 3 times in a row, waaay to much. Lessons learned. I'll only be feeding her once per week now.
I'm getting nutrient burn on some of my fan leaves too ,think it's cause I straight upped nutrients instead of slowly . Was debating trim or cut the few fan leaves that have , as I don't really like trimming much
Plants looking good too!
You're wasting nutrients bro, the yellowing is due to the end of her life cycle, the fade is starting slowly and gently now, adding more nootz is useless.
@TwistedT, if you tric's start to get cloudy, you'll probably need another week before they get milky and one more week to get some amber.
You can start to flush in a week or two, depending on how you like your weed.
@TwistedT,I didn't talk about flush bro, I said it was the beginning of the fade.
There should be plenty enough nootz in your soil to let her do her thing, just check the amount of ppm from the drain you'll know what to do. For me that Automatic is starting to fade due to life cycle but you still have 2 more weeks to go maybe 3.
When was your last feeding ?
