KritischeMasse The worst germination rate I've ever experienced... after 10 days only one seed germinated. This is the first and last time I grow seeds from Ethos Genetics.

KritischeMasse Veg day 7. Not much happens. I planted it in a 2l pot. BioBizz Light Mix. My lamp is Spiderfarmer G3000, 60w and 30cm distance. I'm currently not convinced by the genetics. I'm thinking about stopping this grow. I'll wait another week to make my decision.

KritischeMasse Veg day 14. My lady starts growing good. I don't know yet how exactly I should train her. Maybe I'll let my lady grow normally. I haven't had to water them yet, the soil is still wet, maybe in a few days. I guess my lady stays in 2l pot for another week and then it goes into 11l pot.

KritischeMasse I have a little problem, I probably mixed too much fertilizer into the soil. The leaves are typically indica, large and wide. Unfortunately due to chicken manure it is very dark green and the new leaves have eagle claws to the light. I will transplant it into a larger pot in a few days and use less fertilizer there. If anyone has tips... they would help me. I think since the plant looks very stressed I won't train her.

KritischeMasse I topped my plant, changed grow tent/light. I repotted the plant and she grew 10cm. I let it grow for another week and then switching to flowering. I'm still struggling with a few problems, is it too much or too little fertilizer? The leaves looking bad.. but she is growing and the roots looked very good. 11l Biobizz Lightmix, 120g chicken shit

I would defoliate the plant and trim the lower half of that plant. It looks to be in a small container. You may want use a larger container next time if you don't want to water so frequently.

Good luck with your ladies 😤🌱 It's frustrating with the poor germination rate. I'd really be interested to know if you were able to get a replacement.

@RasendeRollo92, Ehtos shows no leniency and refers to their "germination guide." The seed shop where I bought the seeds for €70 was more accommodating and gave me a 3-pack of Blueberry Cupcake from Humboldt Seeds Company. All 3 of them germinated. I will keep the two strongest plants and dispose of the other to stay "legal" with 3 plants. I will start a grow report here soon for that.

Hey, looks good, I almost chose the Mandarin Zkittlez too, but I'm going with a Mandarin Cookies now. I would say you can transplant now if you haven't already. I would wait until Veg week 3 or 4 for training. These kinds of strains respond well to topping if you have enough time; otherwise, I would say go for LST. Give her a chance, I'm totally amazed at how strong the stem of my Mandarin Cookies smells already in veg, I've never experienced anything like it. And she looks very promising overall. Best of luck!

I'm sorry you didn't have a good experience with Ethos MZ. I grew all 10 seeds out and I'm currently on my 2nd run of it. If you like the taste of the actual Skittles candy you'd love this strain. I would give them another shot. I know it's easier said than done but I've been growing for years and so far the 2 strains of ethos I've grown have been wonderful. Blueberry Muffin is also a good choice as a friend of mine just harvested some and gave me a bag of it. Good luck with your new hobby. Don't give up.

Hello Growmie. I saw that you used Biocanna. What’s your verdict compared to the mineral Canna Terra line? I’ve always given Canna Terra every second watering. Do you do the same and how often do you give Biocanna? With Advanced Nutrients Organic, fertilizing every third time was completely enough.

KritischeMasse commented1y ago

@Stony_German hey, I only started fertilizing after switching to 12/12 since I repotted once and the soil was pre-fertilized for 6 weeks. I used Canna with every watering until the end of BW7 and have only given water since then. There was minimal over-fertilization at the leaf tips, but overall I'm satisfied, although I prefer Bio Flores; the plants absorbed it better even though I fertilized more than indicated in the Chema.

I unfortunately experienced similar bad experience with Ethos genetics. Out of eight seeds four popped, one was a dwarf. Also, the free seeds never came.
