I’m not sure if I’m watering enough. I always check if the soil is dry about 30mm under surface but I still water the soil gently with a sprayer only. Is it beneficial to spray onto the leaves? I’m using donut humidifier and achieving RH levels between 30 and 80%
Hi, Its the better way not to overdo the watering.Girls come along nicely with less water. But 400 ml sounds pretty good for me .And its absolutely ok th spray them too. But best is to do it when the lights are off to avoid burning through the lights. Next money you got buy an humidifier, girls tend to grow better in the Right Rh. Its absolutely worth the money in the comments more to read
My math seems to be working good. 0.8l every evening and the leaves are up, praying to light:)
I shaped the main stem with LST into spiral and the result is only 23cm plant with about 10 branches shooting up. I hope the aggressive LST will not promote the growth of these branches too much as I don’t have too much vertical space left
Does any of you guys know whether or not a shortening of the lights on period in veg could affect the size of the plant? And if the answer is yes, would that in the same time delay the harvest? Or the time is ticking the same for auto whatever you do?
of course shortening the light schedule will affect the growth, it will grow slower for sure you're at 19hrs right if you go less than 10 hours maybe like 8 or 6 or 4 hours you'll see a pretty huge difference. if you're at 18 and go down to 16 you wont notice much. the only thing about light is that it litterally burns off the THC and the terpenes produced by the plant, both of these are highly sensitive to light. What i'm going to do is reduce the light schedule around harvest time so the plant can really fill out with taste and potency. So in other words yes, light is a big deal and will affect growth - hope this helps ! 🚀
Day 39
Up to week 5 the leaves were deep green. Now they started to change colour to pale green and a tip burn started around day 39. Most of petioles turned purple but they are not woody, So it might be normal for this strain.
Day 42
Tip burn is spreading to other leaves, more and more of them becoming pale green. Started watering with pure water with cal mag added. Also started spraying cal mag on leaves. I’m not convinced that it is calcium and magnesium deficiency because the veins are pale green as well.
Day 46
Fifth day of just water with Calmag with nitrogen and iron. The tip burn is still getting worse. Leaves seems to be even more pale, although the buds are growing.
Start of week 8, now not only tips are rusty but also edges of the leaves. Part of the problem was wrong 90 deg lense on my main light: Optic 1. Now changed it to 120 deg which gives more scattered, less intense light. On my next grow I will probably use a bit bigger pot. Resumed normal feeding of 1ml/l of grow and doubled the bloom to 4ml/l as per biobizz schedule plus 1ml calmag and topmax. Also switched to “till run off” method of watering which means 2.5l every 2 days as now I think underfeeding and slight underwatering was my main problem. I think now, so close to the harvest (1-3 weeks) I can’t really harm the plant much although I have noticed the browning of not only the tips and edges but also nearly the whole surface of some leaves, but that started during “water & calmag only” days and can be natural at this stage
I’m flushing it with just water now. This weeks photos are after pre-harvesting of around 50g of wet bud:) I’m planning to harvest more next week and let the rest to flower for another week
Yes you can do it , by this way the plant will focus on the buds and the buds only. It's like when you top your lady , she's redirecting her energy to different spots. A good idea
Harvested half of the buds already. Planning to let the lower buds develop a bit for the next week or two and resumed nutrition for a week now because I definitely started flushing it with water way too early.
