First indoor

VacaVerde She’s a sour diesel seed found in a sour diesel bud. Seed was about 2/3 the size of the average seed. Was a surprise to me that the thing managed to sprout.

VacaVerde Started with rapidstart and biobizz. As a first timer I had a hard time figuring out how much nutes I should feed. Since I don’t have any nutrition on my substrate (50% pear moss 50% perlite) I believe I could have used more nutrition.

VacaVerde Leafs turning light green. Feeded with some extra magnesium.

VacaVerde Plant seeing weak. Gave some more magnesium and doubled the amount of nutes.

VacaVerde Weather is starting to get hot and humidity is dropping. Did not know how bad it could be at the time.

VacaVerde Some leafs still getting yellow. Some leafs started so swirl. Latter I learned that it was due to wind burn because of the fan that I placed close to the tent intake in order to try to control the heat. Did a topping prune.

VacaVerde Still having trouble with leafs swirling and yellowing. Plant still seems weak so I went tot he grow shop and purchased alg a mic and calimagic. Didn’t know the main problem was heat and starvation. Also got a tds pen to control better.

VacaVerde Plant still looked hungry. Did some strong feeding during the week. Also, transplanted to a bigger 7 liters airpot. Changed some things around my tend adding a exhaust and a small fan inside. Added an humidifier. Topping went well. Some leafs started to show signs of heat (is there a thing such as overlight?) Temperature started do low a bit.

VacaVerde She is starting to recovery. This first grow is coming with a lot of learning. I lost a lot of time but gained a lot of experience. Felt like the plants were starving with biobizz. I’m sure is a nice line of nutrients but maybe is a little more trick for a first timer. I think that since it’s organic it takes a little bit more time to the nutrients to be available to the roots. I was having a hard time keeping my ph balanced also. So I was trying to figure out what was my problem. Heat? Nutrients? Ph? The heat was much more manageable after I added an strong exhaust causing negative pressure. I decided to change to advanced nutrients to have a fast action nutrient while fixing my soil ph with their ph perfect tech. After the first feeding the new leafs are back to full health. I’ll definetly try some biobizz once I get better on growing to see how it compares. Also, I ordered an optic 2 light rig that I hope will be here in time for flowering. Even though this Chinese unbranded cob led light is doing ok growing I feel like I could use more power. My next grow will be auto and I heard you cannot lose your hand with it.

VacaVerde This week this plant really got back to life. She is growing fast and strong. After topping and some LST it is showing 4 colas and a lot of ramifications. I really hope it’s a she.

VacaVerde Dealing with the hot weather. The grow temp got as high as 33c. She’s still growing strong.

VacaVerde Lot of things happening this week. New light rig arrived. Planning on debuting it soon (optic 2 form optic grow lights) First, im almost sure it’s a female! This is my best looking plant so far so it’s big news for me. One other thing is, I was summing all my ferts and ppms for the weak but thinking about it I believe the best way to use it is registering how much per feeding right? Can someone let me know what’s the best way to log it in here? Last but not least I got my first bugs. By the look of it I guess it’s spider mites. What I did so far is spray top and bottom leafs with a neen oil solution after lights out and since I saw it on only 2 of the bottom leafs I when ahead and removed it. Keeping an eye on this one.
