First grow ever

—

On day ten I did my first feeding at half dosage and lowered the lights from 21inches to 18, ladies responded really well. Notice growth by the next morning. On day day twelve I did second feed which went well. Did my third feed on day thirteen, which did not go well, 5 hours after feeding I notice leafs were cured up, I brought the lights up to 21 inches and fixed the problem. Light burn. Day fifteen I tried LST which did not go well since this was my first time doing this. Day 16 ladies where back to normal so I did Fimming and see how that works out for me. Wish me luck.

Everything has been good this week. So as you can see I been using the GO go box included GH armor si. I dosed as if it was week 2. I slowly doubled BioThrive Grow and everything else as recommended. Had a slight smell so I connected the carbon filter. Wish me luck.

Everything looked good for week 4 until the last 3 days. I noticed a small nut burn so I brought my my base Thrive Grow to half what i was dosing which was still full strength or recommended. I did some more LST. I manged to brake a big branch because I left the tie on for too long which manage to cut into the branch. Rockie move. Hey its my first grow.

Flower week. Day 37 I did a flush with Fox Farms sledgehammer. Did a small amount of defoliation of the bottom fan leaves. Lights where left on for 24hrs and shut off. Before I shut them off I did a full feed with some open sesame. Lights where off for 48 hrs. Day 40 lights came back on found some stress on the leafs. Top leafs where yellow, shooting up and taco looking. By day 42 the yellow went away and everything. Looked good. Day 43 on one leaf I noticed it was glossy so I sprayed it down with Dr. Earths final stop. Will continue to spray just to be cautious before buds come out. So I’ve broken a few branches while doing some LST. Rookie move. But I’m learning. I just got to keep learning as I go. I was almost thinking of killing the grow but I shouldn’t be negative. It is my first time and I shouldn’t be too hard on myself.

Mid week of bloom I had a small but burn, nothing too bad. I’m thinking since I been adding small amounts of open sesame. So I would feed and the next day I would do open sesame with calmag. Seem to work out. Did a flush by the end of week two of bloom with sledgehammer. I also added a optic 1 XL mid week. This light is awesome. If grow goes good I will be purchasing another to finally add three. Hopefully I’m doing a good job. Already thinking how I’m going to make my next grow. Scrog with a new line of nuts. We will see how things go. Wish me luck

So week three of flower is looking good. Optic 1 XL is really helping the flower bloom. I started using beastie bloomz and I stared to see the blooms come out by mid week. What I thought was a nut burn was lack of calmag. I just started to double the dosage. One day the full line of the go box the next day I’ll do full dosage of base, calmag, and a full dosage of beastie bloomz. Seems to be working out fine. Smell is starting to kick in. I love the smell of it. I can only imagine how it’s going to smell when ready to smoke.

Week 4 of bloom as been crazy to see how all the frost gets all over the bud and the leaves. You can see how the buds grow so fast every day and it keeps snowing. Smell is getting stronger by the day. My exhaust is on full blast keeping my humidity levels really low down to 40 which is awesome. Did a flush this week and sprayed down the whole plant with water. I hope I didn't do any damage where I can get mold. Still have a few weeks to go.

End of week 5 bloom has been the same. One day full nuts from go box as recommendation, base nut doubled plus: GH silica, AN bud candy and FF Cha Ching at half dose. The Next day full base nut, full dose of Cha ching and beastie bloomz just below half dosage. Plants seem to love it. It does get warm when lights turn on so I have the door open while lights are on. Smell is lovely. Can still smell it even with the carbon filter at full speed. Its a mild smell. Getting very happy with the out come for being my first grow. Still too early for the final out come. Wish me luck.

Now that week six is over, smell is getting strong. Even though I have a carbon filter to smell is still pretty strong when I open the tent, you can still smile inside the house. It smiles like bubblicious which I love. Also with a hint of cotton candy. Trichomes are really showing and sugar leaves are getting packed. Im seeing a small amount of aber trichomes but my low buds still have white hairs. Not want to flush too soon.
