###Day 18 ### She grew so much when I was away! This is amazing, I'm very happy about how she is turning out. Watered her with 0.5l of water with nutes. Also installed the new MarsHydro II 400W, it was a little to big for my bucket setup, but I managed to put some adapter pieces on the bucket (see photos). I'm blasting her with all the light has to offer, so both the grow and bloom switch are on. Read somewhere that two separate switches are kind of a gimmick, certainly when she is already this developed. Now she gets 160W full on with a fuller spectrum of colors. Started with some light LST, I have the feeling that she bends because of the weight of the metal tie and not the tightness of it, but it's a begin ๐Ÿ˜Š Oh and she started to smell faintly, I love it! ### Day 19 ### Adjusted the LST wires, she is responding very well to the training. She even starts to smell more pungent when handeled today. In the picture it looks like she is droopy, thats because she was actually in her night cycle. ### Day 20 ### She is doing pretty good. Only thing I'm concerned of is that she is short and the nodes are dence. Placed the light a little higher in the hope that she will start to stretch more. I also noticed purple/red stems, but after some research I'm pretty confident that it is nothing to be concerned about. Gave her 0.2l of water today. Today I made two homemade carbon filters. Smell is a concern where my setup is located and since she is starting to smell faintly and starts flowering in a week or two, it was time to put these together. Just used carbon from the pet store, a pen holder and some zip ties. They turned out beter then expected, I should become a professional carbon filter maker ๐Ÿ˜›. ### Day 21 ### The last day of week 3,hurray! Let the last week of veging begin tomorrow. I'm excited to see her starting to flower! She is still quite small though and the nodes are densily packed. I hope that once she starts flowering, she will also stretch a decent amount. I didn't change the LST because she still looks to be growing in the right direction. The ground felt really dry when sticking my finger in it so I gave her 0.6l of water with nutrients today.

Trainrailsstarted grow question 6 years ago
In the middle of the picture from day 25 there is something weird going on with the new growth (next picture is more detailed). One side is growing really slow, the other looks like it never grew/was eten/something. It is kind of brown/red-ish. Is this a deficiency or windburn?

Looks like windburn, do you have a fan blowing on to it?

There's nothing I love more than logging on and seeing a new grow starting. I get so excited to see how everything is going to develop as the grow progresses. I wish you the best of luck in this grow my friend. Cheers

@SensiSmellYahLater, thanks! :D I'm also very excited for my first grow, it has been fun to see it grow from a little seed to a little plant. I will be away for a day or 4 tomorrow, so I hope I'm not going to worry all the time ๐Ÿ˜›

Must be hard to control the environment in a bucket hahah. Looks cool tho!! And the girl is lookibg great aswell. Did you make the space bucket yourself? Cheers!

@ArucambaAutoflowers297, the thing I hope the most is that she recovers of this before she is done stretching ๐Ÿ˜Š she could use some extra height ๐ŸŒฑ

@ArucambaAutoflowers297, oops, well first I did 2l to get the runoff result and after that 24l for a real flush. And now that I have my tent, I have made sure there is a lot of airflow drying the soil. I still see some signs of over watering, but hopefully those are gone tomorrow and then I'll let her dry fot a few days! I'll make sure to not overdue it on the nutes next feeding. And I thought that flushing was more of a last resort, good to know that it is such an important method to save plants ๐Ÿ˜Š so many possible deficiencies!

@Trainrails, do let the soil dry between flushes. Its easy to overwater when flushing. Dont over do the first feeding once your soil is dry. If you gave it 18 to 27 liters during flush it shall take a while before it dries. Ive been through this before. And messed up the grow because of not taking action on time. I am a firm believer of, if you have a deficiency flush instead of overfeeding. I currently suspect i have a iron deficiency on one of the ladies. Probably because of ph issues. But im not sure so ill be flushing this week to check my soil

Spacebuckets are cool, always liked the idea... ๐Ÿ˜Ž Can you explain how you build it? Growing the same strain (among others) in my grow box (former wardrobe๐Ÿ˜œ) Good luck with your grow!
StonedWolf

@Trainrails, Thanks for the link bro, thats a very good instruction Something like that is similar to my first plans, but then I thought, lets make this small wardrobe into my growbox and that worked out well so far ๐Ÿ˜‹ And yes, building the box was a lot of fun for me too๐Ÿ˜ The blue Ladies seem to be very easy and forgiving. Just don't overwater and be sparce with the nutes. They like their soil a bit on the dry side, so far I only watered them once a week. And your affection I totally share. If I am home and get bored or stressed I open the box and look at them. It is immensly satisfying and relaxing to see them grow. And now that they started to smell... yummie

@Trainrails, the first 2 weeks she got only ph'ed water with BioBizz RootJuice and Mykorrhiza fungi to stimulate a healthy root grow, so no real nutrients. After that I gave her the other nutes, according to the BioBizz nutes schedule, but for the AllMix despite the fact that my soil is 50:50 All-/LightMix (so she gets the lesser amount) And I watered her so far once a week

@StonedWolf, can I ask when you started feeding her?

@Trainrails, We live and we learn. That's the beauty about beeing a human ;)
Trainrails
Trainrails
@GrowZex, yeah, I think the yield will be decent. The fact that she is still so small is my own fault over watering and not identifying the ph lock in time. But 10/10 would grow again :)

@CRiSPrGrow, awesome, thanks for the advise! ๐Ÿ˜

@Trainrails, best pH is the pH of rain water I guess 5.5 but it's a bit too low micro nutrients get absorbed best at around 5.9 ... This one I think will recover ... With a bit of consequences but it will recover and make nice flowers it's only veg not flower so I'm optimistic
Trainrails
Trainrails
@CRiSPrGrow, oh I always heard people say the best ph for soil was 6.5, I'll try to lower it some more! And the watering schedual is 0.6l every 3 days, I'll let it dry out some more before the next watering! Thanks for the very quick response ๐Ÿ˜ Do you think it will start to grow again or is this part a goner?

Looking excellent ! It's always a pleasure to watch a plant grow from seed , keep up the great work . Sending your ladies lots of positive vibes so they grow big and strong and make you lots lots of medicine! -Happy Growing!

@The_Projexx, thanks for all the advice! ๐Ÿ˜Š The nutes I use where advertised as being organic and I use the smallest amount I can, just a little bit to not burn them with too much food. I also water them about 0.6l of water per 3-4days so she has time to dry out before the next watering. Maybe I should try to lift the light a little more. I read somewhere that if the light is to close leaves also tend to curl up. Thanks for helping me out! ๐Ÿ˜„

@Trainrails, They are young brother some of the curling can be due to various things , my best advice when they are young like that is less is more , make sure not to over water them , make sure the growing medium doesnt stay drenched to long ( this will cause root rot and then sepsis on your plant ) and I'm not sure if the nutrients you are using are organic or not but if they arent I would advise to start at 1/4 strength and work your way up from there based on the plants response to the feedings you're giving . Also being that your medium is soil I would only feed with nutrients every 2nd or 3rd watering this way you can ensure you're plant uses almost all available nutrients in the soil before adding new ones . The reason I say this is cause soil tends to hold nutrients longer then say "soiless or hydroponics" . Over all you're doing well keep it up and you will see the results of you're labour . Thanks for taking the time to respond :) -Happy Growing!

Thanks @The_Projexx! Yeah I'm very excited! ๐Ÿ˜Š She has some light up curling on some leaves, but I hope that will sort itself out in the end, probably will with those good vibes! ๐Ÿ˜‰

@Green_Friends_Inc, yeah sounds pretty festive doesn't it ๐Ÿ˜‚ The main stem almost makes a full 360 now (its hard to see because of how dense this little one is), but I guess thats enough, else it is still going to cast shadows on underlying buds. And you and me both friend! ๐Ÿ˜ I'm sooo looking forward to next week! Nice to have you on board ๐Ÿ˜‰

I never knew about windburns, my bucket is up and ready and I'm gonna start my first grow in a week. What size are your fans? I have got 80mm as an intake.
Trainrails
Trainrails
@greenbuddy, mine are the same size. In my case the wind burn only affected the one spot on my plant, the rest was doing ok. After I defused the light it did a lot better and just started growing again. So I would not worry too much unless you see signs of it happening ;)
