Just sugar water today as we're seen some nute burn. Lots more buds coming in. Plant overall seems super happy and is loving the swamp cooler that was added midweek. Sprayed with neem oil & dr Bronners soap 3 days apart to control pest issue. Any strands in photos are cat fur. While cats don't go in the grow room I have one whose fur is like ANgora rabbit fur and gets everwhere. Personal use, not a clean room! midweek update: Plants needing more frequent waterings. Watered with 2 tsp/gal Botanicare Bloom plus 10 ml/gal Advanced Nutrients PhUP. Ph read below 5 on meter, confirmed with AN Ph kit. Brought it up to 6. Not music smell on this or Lemon OG. This plant is gorgeous looking despite not being terribly impressive before flipping to 12/12. Minimal nute burn on leaf tips, no real pest nibbling, purple stems abated. Lots of buds still coming in along the open center branches.

Lil tip : usually they're ready when they stop drinking πŸ˜‰

@WhiteWidow, I'm not looking at the quantity of water my plant takes in but whether the plant responds to watering. I.e., if the leaves look a little droopy and the top inch or so of soil is dry to the touch, if I water, does she perk up? I believe that's @JUNGLE_B4RNS was getting at.

@JUNGLE_B4RNS, i noticed that with my Bubba Kush, suddenly he is drinking ultra low quantities of water, like 3 liters in 4 days, in a 5L pot size. Is that a sign that my bubba is done? Shame since i thought.those buds could become more dense but they are standing in the same.place, and not much crystals to it.. :(

@WhiteWidow,only when you're flushing it, at the end of flushing when your plant stops drinking this is where you can chop it.

Looks very dark, and potent , should be a lovely smoke if you can flush it out . πŸ‘

@BigDaddyK,A friend tried to convince me to use a sodium light instead but I didn't want the electric bill and my ventilation has been the low tech method of opening the curtain. I could lower my lights if you believe they're not getting enough. This is my first experience growing anything indoors as well as growing weed. Things are looking really gluey in there todayπŸ’ƒπŸ½πŸ’ƒπŸ½πŸ’ƒπŸ½.

Very cool dude. Interested to see how this turns out. Good luck. Also what is your take on those air pots?
TheFairyBudMother
TheFairyBudMother
@Grimbol, The air pots are awesome! I kept the Lemon OG in a regular plastic pot as my third air pot hadn't arrived when I planted and it's not doing as well though there may be other reasons. I was worried water would squirt out the sides, but it doesn't. The soil has stayed nice and loose. They keep the plant raised too so it never sits in water and they unpeel from around the plants so removal should be easy. $20/pot though!

Damn the ones on amazon were more than $30 so I bought some fabric pots. I 'm going to try coco next round I believe.

@TheFBM, Thanks dude! Much appreciated! I do want to run the experiment with clones though at some point soon.

@Grimbol, I've been following your Fox Farms vs Advanced Nutrients experiment on GDP. I think it's important that we do lots emperical studies for science!

@TheFBM, For my next grow I think I will try one air pot and one canvas pot and see what I notice.

You could probably benefit with a bigger led

@Mr_Di,MEIZHI are the brand you want 1200 watt $300 LeD - people are telling me good things about it πŸ‘

@TheFairyBudMother, absolutly πŸ’ͺ, if you can bro, i suggest you same thing....use hps for bloom phase if you want maximize potential harvest of your strain. At the beginning i insisted, i have come to do 3 continuous cycles with my 280w led (420€.............) ..... but the result compared with an hobby friend who only uses hps ..... i have to admit that there is no comparison .... Ah.....! sorry guys for my english....πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…
Mr_Di
Mr_Di
@BigDaddyK, yeeeeeesssssss big daddy, I agree, in my opinion the LEDs still have too little penetration. After 1 years of continuos cicle, i've same convintion. Led, is good for all veg period, make short internods and a great foliar production, the best think in veg time. In bloom phase, penetration of hps.....is not yet equiparable to led. Now, are there in commerce new led COB that increase penetration, but its spectrum is only white.....aaaaaaand.......alway only good for veg opinion......my set up now is, 280w led for first 3-4 week, after, hps 400w or 600....its depend by season.πŸ˜‹

wow....very interesting bro!!! anyway, caution my friend!!! often, market indicate watts compared to the hps ... my 280w led sold by comparing it to a 600w hps .... quite unreal. (Tested) ads: 580w led 5 bands full spectrum ... .the true? 280w ...... for my opinion .... Comparable max to a 400w ... Even on amazon, find ads like 1000w led ..... then reading well, find that they consume 400w and are compared to 1000w hps ....... no worse thing to spend cash to have a What and then find another ..... under your expectations ... I speak for doh experience !! : D But if you had a real 1000w led (power absorption) it would be a good buy for future :) I hope my English is compliant

@TheFairyBudMother, nice! Yeah i agree. the light penetration argument with LEDs is moot with white LEDs so I believe the only thing holding LEDs back is the price it's hard to beat a thousand Watts for 300 bucks.
TheFairyBudMother
TheFairyBudMother
@Bigpun,Yeah your grow is pretty impressive! I would look into COB lights. When I read that places like this https://www.heliospectra.com/blog/grove-nevada-experiences-unprecedented-positive-results-their-grow-using-heliospectras-led-grow use LED (albiet insanely customizable light systems), I believe that much of the problem with perception of LED is that people don't have enough experience with them and they have improved vastly for the cost in only the past 2-3 years, which isn't long ago if you recently did your own experiments to learn the best method for you. I cannot in good conscience or economy justify the energy costs for light and cooling if I can figure out how avoid them.

@TheFairyBudMother, my viparspectra 450 "200w" draw has grown my cheese auto pretty good. Although in my 4x4 space 2 would be more effective.

The bud looks amazing , the only shame there isn't more of it πŸ‘
BigDaddyK

@TheFairyBudMother,it's all a learning curve , best to underwater than over , early doors they get watered every three days , only in full flower do the get more often from me in soil but a bigger led will give more yield πŸ‘

@BigDaddyK, I bet you were disappointed! 10 g is a lot for me. It would likely last me 1-2 months. This was a house clone from Buds & Roses LA which won a Cannabis Cup award for this cut. It's not a high yielding strain, and they did not recommend it as a first time grow. I wanted 3 different plants and since I have to drive an hour each way to buy pot or clones because of stupid zoning laws, I took 3 plants I thought might grow cannabis that would most likely work well on my pain. I figured worst case, I would learn a little bit about growing pot and in the best case, I would have lots to share with friends. Mostly I should have vegged the plant much longer for a higher yeild but who knows if it would have survived a longer grow given that I wasn't using a ppm meter and got spider mites partway through my grow. On this next grow, I did put some bagseed in there, as well as using seeds from Bomb seeds. I currently have 6 seedlings, but I expect to have to cull a few of them because the bag seeds are regular, and some might be males or bisex.

@TheFairyBudMother,if I showed you the first plants I ever grew , they were bag seed and I got 10 g a plant 🌱

Man tap water is 700 ppm ? What's in it ?
TheFairyBudMother
TheFairyBudMother
@BigDaddyK, I need to calibrate the TDS to be sure, and if it remains that high, it's going to a lab.
