Plants started out early really good but havent grown much the last weeks. Probably due to overwatering as it is my first grow and I was kinda over-doing it. Lights are running on 75 percent of the maximum 800 µmol/s. I would be happy if you guys got any tipps for me ! I am thinking about going into 12/12 soon but my plan was to get the plants a bit bigger and then start switching the lights. Also I have started LST pretty late like week 6 or 7 but the stem was pretty flexible and nothing broke so I hope it was the right decision. Also maybe topping was too late? Also thought about scrogging but as my plants are pretty small I have not started yet. Leave a comment if you see need for improvement.
Plants doing better now. After I planted them in a 20 liter (5 gallon) pot. I definitely need them to get bigger so I will stay in veg for 1 to 2 weeks until I will start flower.
Plants looking good, forgot to update you guys but I am back🙏 I also defoliated the plants because they got way too bushy. Looking forward for any advice you guys have. I know the temperatures are a bit too high but unfortunately I can not lower it considering the heat the last days. For fertilizing I am using the starter pack from BioBizz. I am still slowly getting to the recommended amount of fertilizer as I do not want to stress the ladies unnecessary at this stage. Hope you guys enjoy the update👽
Week 3 of flowering was very good. Weather conditions were better and not so hot anymore🙏 I´m feeding them according to the schedule by BioBizz about every 3 days sometimes 2 days depending on the heat and if the soil is still wet. Any advices or mistakes you guys notice? Just write a comment or hit me up in the dms I´m happy to improve😊
Week 4 was great. Tried upping the water amount a bit and it worked well on 2 of the 3 plants so I´ll just stay at the same amount as before for the plant that didn´t like more water. Buds getting bigger. Also 2 of the 3 plants are gonna have a longer bloom and it shows now as you guys can see. I just hope now that they will stay healthy because I´m happy with the progress. Thanks alot again for you guys giving me tips and tricks to optimize the grow.
Week 5 was good as well. Now it´s getting colder and I can do a better job in regulating the temperature which is great. Buds are fattening and gettting real smelly👽. The plant with the closeup shot is starting to get amber trichomes which is why I´m thinking that she won´t have too long until she´s ready. Now only a few weeks left for all of the ladies and I hope I won´t get any mold as I can´t regulate the RH yet. Any tips or recommendations are welcome🙏
Sorry I forgot to finish this diary. The plants were great and the yield was good. Due to the regulation and bud rot (no dehumidifier) I had to throw away a big portion of the harvest. Still very tasty harvest and I´m happy with the quality I achieved in my first grow.
So I saw your question posted. I took a look at your diary. The biggest thing I can see is that your pots are just too small. Your plants aren’t getting bigger because there’s no room for roots to expand. More roots = more fruits. The pot you’re in now is definitely a good size for a seedling but not for a mature plant. Typically if I’m growing a photoperiod plant the smallest I want to go is a 5 gallon pot. For an auto flower I’m in a 3 gallon pot. The first thing I’d try to do is transplant into a bigger pot and keep vegging. I’m willing to bet you my next pay against your next pay that all three are root bound.
@jbtju, the longer you veg the more buds you’ll get but she will flower if you flip to 12/12. It’s really up to you and what you want to do with them. However you probably want to give it another two weeks after transplant to let them adjust to their new pot.
@Papa_T, thanks for the answer I appreciate your knowledge ! I‘ll definitely go ahead and go up to a 19 Liter pot. Would you try to wait for more growth or just go into flower ?
