Just started the germination. This time I wanna grow this baby experimenting the main-lining technique. I also bought the tri pack of Advanced Nutrients and cannot wait to see this baby grow!!
The plant is growing really well and quite fast. So far no problem have arisen. Now it is developing the firth internode, once the sixth will be there I will start with the main-lining technique. Roots are already visible form the bottom of the pot so I guess I will trasplant the plant to the final pot in a week or so.
I performed the first top to the plant. I will do a main lining a bit modified by keeping 2 sets instead of just 1. The plant after half a day from being topped started growing as hell!! I will probably transplant it in a few days.
And that's what I did by the end of the week. The pot had too big holse compered to the perlite I bought so I had to smallet 'em down with some tape.
I also topped the plant again. Wird three-end set came out of the topping but eveything staying on the plant is quite normal
The plant is still growing with no problems. This is my first time doing main-lining and - since i decided to keep 2 sets - I know see a big difference in growth of the tops. If a fan-leaf cover another fun leaf (which now happen to half oh the leaves) you really notice a difference in the growth of the tops. I now make sure to alternate the leafs so that each top grow heavenly.
Forst thing I removed the metal thingy so that the plant is free to stretch. Turned it into flowering at beginning of week 6 - day 36 from sprout.
I also changed the two bulbs from 6400k led to two cfl 2700k. Each produce 2255 lumen and the main grow light is a 150w of 6650 lumen, total 11160 lumen juat cfl.
Day 5 of flowering I decided to create my own tomatoe ring to allow the plant to spread better. Of the 8 tops I placed 4 in and 4 out of it, so far seem real good!
Day by day the pistils are coming more visible and the buds start to developing. I see the plant that still stretch and I wonder how much it will still stretch considering is my first main lined!
This week just started and the plant seems to slowing the stratching and starting to get fatty. I see that trichomes are becoming every day more visible!
This week I decided to purchase a led grow light! Bought a 300W meizhi and as soon as it arrived I made the swith with the cfls. Now the plant will have about a month till harvest, hope the led will help it grow fat fat fat!!
The plant is getting used to the new led. Some leaves are making wired turn but the pistils are lokimg great and I don't think the plant is suffering from change of light, but much rather love it!!
The plant is growing bigger and I really see the added value of changing the CFL with a led! The only thing i might be facing some problems with the nutrients but i'm not sure if it's nitrogen toxicity or something else. I reported the question to some masters (so thankful of this community
The question is which of my nutrients have caused the problem and what should I now do to solve it. I'am planning to keep it the full 10 weeks into flowering so it should still have 3 weeks and a half to harvest.
Hey there, i was looking iver the last weeks and i noticed some tips starting to change between wk 10-11 and then progress. I know some people will do a small flush when they transition from having grow nutes to mainly flowering ones, so if i was going to guess I'd say it was related to having the grow + bloom together so far into flowering. But i had another thought, sometimes when we switch to led from a lower powered light the plants have to adjust to the led, perhaps that could have given the plants a small surprise also a burnt a few tips? Just a few thoughts... happy flowering. ✌️
give her only water for about one week,with 20% runoff so you can clean all the salt deposits on the bottom which definelty acumulated over time with all the extra feeding ,then start pumping nutes again when you see signs of your girl praying to the sun ,it's easy simple and efficient :D good luck!
Overfeeding , it happens when nutrients aren’t used totally by the plant , those nutrients start built up in the media and after a while they turn into NaCl (salt) , turning the media into an hypertonic condition the plants reverse the flow of her fluids (water) to balance the salinity of the media to turn it back into an isotonic condition, this is why your tips are burned, they are dehydrated to be exact. It usually start to happen past 1200ppm’s .... For those 3 last weeks you can cut all your nootz and use plain water only
Figure out that besides the nitrogen toxicity I've got some nutrients burn.. Cannot place the light any further so I'll go till harvest like this and next grow more LST!!
The plant has quite some leaves to calyxes but I'm hoping this laat week will help fatting up. I am now giving her just some ph down water, and I'll probably cut her in a week!
