Doing only water . is Germany company called "Sonnenerde Bio Kräutererde" English is Sun "Earth Organic herb soil".. Growing it in my Autopot system. Haven't turn it on it . will wait until the leafs reach the edges of the fabric pot.
She is, im guessing 18 days.Loving this soil . she is growing fast this time. She is two days early for my update . just water only . my tap PH Is coming out 7.2 and ppm is coming out 324 sometimes 200 and something (mostly calcium). Broke my pH pen yesterday. So I did Lil drop of pH down to my water but I'm sure is around 6.2-6.7.. Gonna TOP it in few days and LST next week and I also changed my ventilator and carbon filter to larger one from PrimaKlima. And I have added CO2 bag inside (testing it )
I think I had PH issue . but she looks like she is doing fine. I topped her 3 days ago and also removed the big fan leaves at the top to get more light to the lower branch and the way I wanna train it to. I prefer this method. But she is 25 days . still just plan water and I spray it with mono silici acid . Gonna keep on applying to it . until favor. will be turning on the autopot system soon. I still feel like the roots are not ready yet .
Did some LST . I opened the middle part to the light. Took some fans leafs off. She is doing well with this soil. The PH from the soil company is 6-7.5 . my water doing in the soil is reading 7.2. I mean the plants are doing fine. Not gonna pH down . just gonna let this tank run out and in the full flower stage . will drop my pH water to 6.5 and hope I can stay in that range to the end of flower .
She is doing well with the soil and the autopot. No issue or what so ever .I think I might get a big plant . She is the one in the back there. 42 today's . u can see the size . probably gonna be 12 weeks (seed to Harvest with trichomes at my spot. I'm also just guessing .)
She is Guava Auto fastbud. 50 days sincere from sprout and having all kinda issue. Is living soil organic .doesn't need fertilizer. The pH they recommended is 6-7.5. I'm using autopot system and my pH is reading 7-7.3. I mostly use pH down but after few days goes backup to 7ish .
Hello mate, so do you prepared the soil in first week of veg a then nothing more? maybe this could couse some problems with the macro nutrient at the end of flowering because you don't know how's going on inside your living soil. Anyway you issue seams the beginning of Ca defiency, check the Ca level in your water then valuate to add Ca/Mg product. I would add both to mantain the equilibrium considering you are using a living soil.
Good luck and happy harvest!!
Calcium issues (deficiency) as well as a lack of P and K.
All soil needs fertilizing eventually, especially by flowering time.
Don't worry about the pH, up to 7.4 is acceptable, maybe not perfect, but ok.
pH in soil can not be "fixed" by watering with pHed water/ferts..........you need to top dress with sulfur to reduce pH in soil permanently.
Have you been top watering every once in awhile?
My Auto Tent #1 Diary is 3 Fast Buds Blackberry Auto that I was using a SIP system. SIP is bottom watering, kind of like Auto Pots.
When I got to flower, my leaves started looking like yours.
I was not supplementing with top watering enough and my roots didn't fill out the top of the pot because bottom watering systems only wet the bottom 1/3 of the pot. The roots searched out the water from below and because I wasn't top watering enough, they actually grew down into the bases.
I removed the roots, stopped using the bases and started top watering.
Issue went away but if I let the pot dry out even a little to much, the issue starts to show again.
It was pretty much root bound systems, your roots may not be growing out the bottom but if you haven't been top watering enough in addition to the bottom watering then your roots may not have filled out the top as they should of.
I think my pH was high so I have been running into couple of issues here and there. I gave it some top max and bio heaven and PH down (all biobizz product ). Gonna give it few days to see if the issues would stop. My pH in my Acuva is at 6.8. My water Tank is 6.0.
Update . I added picture . so my PH(I think) is been off. Is my first time using this Autopot systems. Didn't know my a lot if stuff . my PH is been off and cause of been panic I did some dumb shit . drop my pH and brought it up again. But now I corrected it . took the whole water out and the tray to and I reset it up with new fresh correct PH. Been keeping eyes on it for the past 24hrs .hope it fix this issues. My water tank is at PH of 6.2 and tray is 6.5
Had pH issues but I fixed it ( you can see it on the leafs but the soil is really good. I would recommend it) and gave it some top max and agave syrups.
UPDATE: I'm gonna update the diary in 2/weeks Cause I skipped couple of days .but will keep updating the last week(10 week) with more pictures . but she is in 9 weeks 64 days sincere she sprouted and does by checking my grow calendar so you can do the math .I Believe anyone can grow this plant.
We had some issues in flowering but she has this citrus (lemon) smell coming out from stem rubbing. I might at this point she might need two more weeks to be done .
Update: I had another pheno but with lemon citrus smell. Heavy brown pistils.
She was done. Wanted more ambers like 20-30% but cause the leafs were all done . had 2-10% ambers and had to bring her down. She smell like lemon. Strong. I harvested her today Saturday.30 mins after the light went out. Will give update of the weight and the effect. You can join my discord at
