looking much greener than last week. defoliated them yesterday.and switched to aptus nutrients. looking good so far.
they seem to like the new nutrients and my ph issues are gone.
i thing they stopped stretching fase now, so i started the bloom nutrients.
i started testing far red spectrum. i will update about it if i see some changes .
and add more pics by the end of the week.
cheers!!!👌
i started flushing because she is gonna be ready a week early.
by adding and fine tuning far red light spectrum they get more night time,
so they are ready about a week earlier. this will be my second harvest confirming
for me that the emmerson effect works. next one will be with 1hour more light. 👌
oh boy, i hope i was in time. i wanted to flush it a week longer and let the 30% of trichomes turn amber.
but like you see on the photo's she turned in to a weird hermaphrodite.
i found only 3 male buds.but i could not take the risk that she or he mess up the rest.
i know what went wrong and has to do with the far red lights. well, not every experiment can go wright i guess.
i am happy with the harvest doh.i think it's gonna be more than 1g/watt. and the buds are really really heavy and dens. so i am happy.and i will update the harvest page when they are dry. 😃
cheers!
Bamm!! i did it👊! i did not expected to hit my 1:1 target so fast and so hard and in SIX weeks only!!
it feels like i am dreaming.at first i thought my scale was broken, so i even tried an other one. and i still cant belief this.
what an underdog, i got these seed for free with my order.😳
nice little heavy dense buds, and they smell so sweet.
I know what i am ordering the next time!
thank you all very much for following along 😎.
good luck and big yields for everyone!0
@zack1
Looks gorgeous man!
I follow along,i am very excited. And your girls look very nice and healty.
What are the dimension of your tent and what lights you use bro...?
@green_leaf,oh thanks man, for the cooling tip💪 and for you wanna to keep me updated.
about the mold, to be honest i never had any mold issues. and my humidity gets sometimes
up to 62% and the are really packed in there. but i do have to much airflow.
a basic 30cm venilator for the floor and a big one with 5 blades for above the canopy.
strains genetics and the health of the plant are also very important.
but for using 2700k, i really don't know. i understand your logic behind it,
but if you have mold issues you should look for what is causing this.
if you really want do ad them for support you can still go for it, all of this is still new.
who knows what effect it will give. and not all strains react the same way on light.
ohboy still so much to try, i am now focusing to find a strain from which i will keep a motherplant so i can keep on doing the same plants over and over again.
and every time i can change things on some of them and experiment on them until i got her at max yield. probably its gonna be the bubble gum. i have not decided yet.
i like you to bro, and i will be following you.
if i can help or you have some tips just let me know.
until then and good luck!
@zack1,
For the topic of the "fluffy" buds just now i was thinking is it possible to reduce bud-mold with those 2700k (in support-mode)...? What do you think...?
@zack1,
Thx for the tip with the 2700k! After your tip i decide to grow this flowering with my 3500k's right now and tale little money back for 2 x 3500k for the next grow..
...please dont understand me wrong...i dont wanna talk about better and worse...i thought about ac cobs for directly 220v the last days to support my 3500k but i think thats burning money...i'm on the same level with the money and buying the cxb was very hard for me...the only thing i would explain you in the last post was the topic with the temperatur and cooling for cobs...nearly it doesnt matter what cobs are you using e.g. osram citizen or cree...the hotter the cob than lower the output...i'm electotechnican and have spend "little" time with the topic of cobs... The only thing i would lovely :D tell you is: cool them down ;)
On the other way...the far-red topic is absolutly new to me. I have read something about it but i dont have researched any impacts for that cause its my second grow and the first inddor🙈
I will follow you along bro, cause i think your hearts on the right place and i think we are all winners cause we are searching for informations and understand what our girls want.
E.g... I have read about a new cob the last month from luminus...cxm-32...
It pulls 5000lm out more than a cxb🙈 to a little cheaper price...i will research for and when interested i will tell you...
Very best wishes to you!
@Silverback_Guerilla,lol. i am glad that i have learned to solder and how led's works.
i did it all by my self and i am proud of it. but i understand you.
so,here ya go, this one's only has far red on them.
https://www.rapidled.com/far-red-initiator-puck/
it uses about 580mah so 1 off these is good enough for up to 3.5 x 3.5.
pm when you got them, i tell you how long this should run.
cheers!!!
@zack1,
I've never soldered anything before, and was hoping to avoid learning another skill....😁
I've actually considered a DIY using solderless Cree XP-E far red LED's (https://www.rapidled.com/solderless-cree-xp-e-far-red-led/) as shown in the video tutorial at the bottom of the same page...seems simple enough, but I know me...it would be a horrific spaghetti-mess if I tried it...even the finished product in the video looks pretty sloppy and that guy knew what he was doing...
@zack1
WTF bro!😍
Pic#2 i dont found words for...!
And thats a critical...?😰
Nice job bro...NIIIICE JOB!!!
Dont be amgry about this 3 male-flowers....
We are learning by doing bro...!
And thats the reason why we are here...
Have had big problems too in the past because of experimenting...thats no problem cause we now just know what to do better next time 😉
@zack1,
maybe i will run next time with coco but don't know now cause i am satisfied with my soil. I am using the saturated (for about 8 weeks) CompoSana. For my Girls this standard-saturation is enough for about 4 weeks :D
My schedule is Water-Feed-Water.....
Yes bro...sometimes we must risk or experiment with something just about to know if it works or not...
High_Five!
@green_leaf,😂 lol it really sucks that it turned out to be a male.
but i am glad you had your bigass male. otherwise you may not be here!
soil is a safer bet! but... i like to be in full control. and that i can not be with soil.
with coco i flush every watering so in the pot is only what i put in. and what the plant dont
"eat" gets flushed out the next watering.
and because of this i can give them much more than recommended (what they need)
this one i was giving it 1100ppm the whole flowering period with calmag daily
instead of weekly.and i dared to do that because of the flushing.i am just saying.
i have risked it and i dont regret it. just like the led, i am convinced.👌
@zack1,
Hey zack....i am not sure with lowering down the lx in compromise to PAR...my plan is to increase the light-level slowly more in the first weeks of 12/12...
My critical now goes crazy🙈...
Have the feeling that you could sit and looking at her growing between hours🙈...
But bot only the critical...the church and ppp too...i am now on 19000lx in middle of canopy...will take pics tomorrow morning...
For topic with calmag...i dont have any experience with...i know what it is and have read about it vut i have dont think about it anytime...what i have read about was epsom-salt and molasses the last days...i think epsom-salt is nearly like calmag but dont know if i am right with it...
Why i am use soil...hm...i think because i know to grow this ladys with it due to my last outdoor grow 2018....
Unfortunately she was a male...but a very big male...1,8m x 1,8m🙈
I am starting this (my 2nd grow ever) with a hybrid of soil and hydro...then i am getting big problems with airpump and potsize so i have decided to safe all plants and grow with soil...in topic of nutrients-ppm...i think you would see it on your girl when its too much...in my case the church have very little burned tip-leaves...on the outer cas the cbd-plus i think can get (want)much more...my schedule is about 800 at this time with #biobizz line...
Cheers bro! I am excited of your dry wight! 🍻
@Reaper, oh nice,6weeks is really short. but i still have to decide if i am gonna do it again. it all depends on the yield, taste and buzz. we will see.
@zack1
Very great Critical bro!
Can you find leafs with more than 7 fingers on her?
Critical is the one and only where i can't find more than 7 fingers per leaf. All my other girls have 9 - the Church even 11 fingers on leafs...
very nice, would this work with ro water and only cocos A and B (with 200ppm calmag before adding nutes) or is there already calmag in the A and B nutes ? nice yield. i got 17grams dry but only vegged 3 weeks, now im vegging again im at week 5 now got 2 of them to fill 1 square meter, is 5 weeks enough ?
hey, did you chek the trichomes before harvest ? im on week 7 today but the trichomes are still cloudy/clear.. the plant looks ready dark brown pistils and leaves falling of
hi mate, i checked and there is no more than 7 finger leaves. critical is an indica ,so its normal they dont have more fingers. your other girls are probably sativa or have sativa in them.
good luck with your grow.
