Week six is almost done!
Bluematic: I tried seeing if my bluematic was getting thirstier given its massive stretch and was wrong! She still prefers 1/2 gallon every 3 days, with nutrients added every other watering. The leaves are drooping and match symptoms of overwatering. I'll let her dry out for at least 3 days and see how she's doing then and adjust.
Humboldt Headband Auto: Did my final pruning earlier in the week and in total have removed a total of 45 leaves/bud sites since the start of the grow. This plant heavily leans indica but I'll wait to see if it stretches at all in the next week or two. I unintentionally delayed its flower by over-pruning too much at once. Otherwise the plant seems healthy.
Overall I'm very happy with my first grow so far. I've made some mistakes but those are just ways to improve my future grows so I'm feeling pretty positive about everything overall. I'm hoping to get some new smells going in my tent soon here, as the main reason I selected the Humboldt Headband auto from HSC is that I just love that whole family line's smell so much. Finally, I will be asking a question about the bluematic to make sure that what I think is over-watering on the bluematic is indeed overwatering.
Wanting to double check with bigger cultivation brains than mine - my bluematic leaves are drooping pretty quickly after a watering. Am I correct in thinking that this is symptomatic of over-watering?
Yes sir you can see how the leaftips are dropping. Your rootzone is stressed, give your plants more time between feedings. Especially when you overfeed them, they will drink slowly now and also have to take up more water, you should wait like 4-5days. Or you have the same situation again in 2-3days.
And when the top layer like 1cm is dry, water till runoff to ensure all your roots getting water. Simply higher the amount till the maximum your pot can take, but feed less often. Especially now where they have to deal with the overfeeding, which will take around 2days on top of your normal waterng shedule
@Leonardo_DaGrower, Absolutely! My favorite part is figuring out how to fix/prevent mistakes from one run to the next. My PPD Auto is almost done, very excited.
@RasendeRollo92, thank you! I'm gonna increase my watering schedule a bit because that plant droop looks like a thirst problem.
Thanks for stopping by.
