Coco coir soil from Top Crop is declared being very low in salts, but TDS meter had shown more than 2000 ppm in a run off water. So I had to rinse the soil to be clean and then held it in the Top Crop Coco A+B solution to buffer it.
The plant #2 (Sweet Seeds 🍓🍌) has a really bad looking crumpled and chewed leaves. I was hoping it would get better but it hasn't come true.
Another sad thing happened, my dog showed some interest in cannabis and twice partially plucked the leaves of both of them ( Let's see how it goes.
UPD: finnaly I had to remove Sweet Seeds Red strawberry banana because it was affected by the virus, also a contact person from Sweet Seeds gave me advice to remove the sick plant from the box, so I did finally and also I'm removing it from the rest of the grow diary.
There was another dog attack, so I need to take measures to prevent it. Critical Kush keeps growing and looks okay taking in account the series of dog attacks. At the end of 3rd week I started LST training for it.
#1 Critical Kush looks very nice, I keep LST on it, and to distribute everything evenly.
I used Amanitha as fungicide to prevent possible problems. Day temperatures are still kinda high - up to 26-27 degrees, but night temperatures are 14-16, and also humidity at night is low.
I use recommended doses of nutrients, but the TDS meter shows about 400. Which seems to low for me, but all the leaves are looking good and healthy.
At the and of the week all lST supporting thenfs were removed: canopy is formed and all the stems are hardened.
The progress is very slow, but I like how the plant looks, it seems to be healthy and has more flowering points than I've seen on any autos I grew before.
I also adjusted the fertilizers ratios to get more optimal for flowering stage and added pH-down to improve the solution assimilation.
The canopy was to dense so I was thinking about some defoliation, but decided not to do it to prevent extra stress.
What I did, I removed weak leaves (not much though) and folded some leaves fixing with a wire to improve light penetration and air flow.
During last week temperatures got lower and himidity increased, I had to cut off two colas with boteytis starting to develop. So on day 88 I decided to finish the growing.
