Week 7 : Six Shooter in Biotabs
This week was great to watch happen top of the week the secondary colas started really raising the canopy, most of them are growing nice and straight and the flowers are turning out finally. Meanwhile these are putting out a spicy smell , stem rub is sour lemons , leaves are doing well, just a bit of heat/light shock from growing a bit more than i anticipated when i left. Top of the week i was spraying with calmagsulfur and once with kelp aswell. Other than that watered 4 pints on thursday, and 3 pints with 1.5/2L dry humic acid, meant to go 1.5/GL which would have been twice as much at 3G/2L... recomended dose is 5G/2L ... so yeah, oh well, the humic acid make the water go pitch black , i like how it makes the soil react, probably should have used this additive earlier but only time will tell. Still pondering if I mix up a batch of biotabs PK for these gens just yet or not. Let's see ! start of the week it was a bit behind but it caught up by the end of the week, the soil was dry, but not that dry when i got back, will keep and eye on this one as it looks like this strain handled the LST best ๐
@simsalabim : see here there's a better pic where you can see some residue from doubling up on the micro ... lower plant, some of the lower branches have some stuck on, but they absorb it eventually after a few days
@CRiSPrGrow, checked the 'daybreak' image. I had similar white blotching on my Dutch Autos and Cheese / Atomical Haze clones when I messed the aloe gel solution on their leaves while giving them water - month or so ago, when we last talked about aloe gel mixtures ... however these white stains where there for a long time but think dissapeared by now.
@GrimbolTheDruid, yeah it's because as it's my first time i've kinda gone around and tagged you everywhere lol.... seems so easy once you do it right, LST. i think i got q bit lucky on when to start it, a few more days and the window would have passed lol. thanks for checking in my friend !
@GrimbolTheDruid, one of my six shooters got a leaf caught in some water (in the dark) and it's all wilty and shit looking looking lol, how do i catch it
@growdiaries : help ! i can't figure out how to edit my weeks to have for example multiple week two's so i can seperate the different plants within the same strain for a single strain diary of multiple plants that's better organised and easier to read. Did you remove that function ? would break my heart that's why ! ๐
@GrowDiaries, shame i finally "got it" literrally a week or two after the update... this is the way to really take growdiaries to the next level for the "experimental" crowd : following plants individually under the same "genetics banner" ... i'm not too disappointed, but i did end up losing quite a few week's worth of pictures and text, oh well ๐ great (all other) updates btw loving all the new users ! ๐
Love the detail in the diary but it seems the results from the nutrients show pretty sub par results yeild and quality wise. Comprehensive analysis but if I was using this diary as a decision maker on nutrients I think I'd give em all a miss๐ค๐ค
@ROM101, ha yes! you do you bro , second grow ever so I was feeling things out - decided you go with @biotabs_f69 for my third ever grow, check out the new/ongoing diaries ... You tell me !
Looking really nice now , I have found your diary's alittle hard too follow , crazy 16weeks of week 5 ? Is that too give out new notifications for people too read your diary ?
Last time I looked it was last week and in the pics only had 4 leaves lol
Looking nice!
I noticed you use your own calmag (I use some with zinc, boron and other stuff), and magnesium+sulphur (epsom salts?) too.
I've learned also that I should boost phosphor and carbon (something like ash/biochar since it has decent calcium and potassium too) around flowering time too (probably good as foliar spray just before and in early flowering, antifungal, etc).
Otherwise it's still effective as soil feed, though something like potassium (bi)carbonate, from ash/biochar or even pure form, though I'd prefer the cheaper ash/char mix because of some carbon and calcium, as a combined foliar feed/fungicide seems like a good idea even in later flowering, if you do happen to have fungus worries. You can just rinse/spray it off occasionally and it's less damaging than any of the alternatives I've seen.
@CRiSPrGrow,
I'm okay (not really), DMT, alcohol, weed, kratom, datura and potentiators. Every day (well, haven't smoked much datura recently, good reminder). Imo datura leaves and flowers with weed is really nice. Like it just makes me calm.
But yeah, DMT is really not my favourite.
@@Ssomeguy, damn bro, sorry to hear that. I remember thinking to myself "goddam it's gonna be challenging going to work and reading on this stuff"... so i can only imagine what a huge handicap it is for you bro...
@Lilsticky420, thanks lil sticky ! I'm a totally new grower just like you so if you need anything or have any questions don't be shy and don't be a stranger - we're all out here to learn and learn from each other and you're very welcome to learn alongside me growmie ๐๐ป๐
@Mrs_Larimar, hey thank you so much, as you know you are a teacher and mentor to me so i really appreciate the compliment. BTW i hope you're following my female seed diaries, after all you were the one to send me those seeds ๐
@JohnDee, the ground sensor is the white thing you see pop up every so often, the interface you're talking about i ripped from a popular android app. Not very effective ! ๐
Hey bulbi mate, Are you feeding Calmag with iron? Looks like the start of iron def (check what locks iron out if you are feeding iron) from my view of the picture of all the plants. The fan leaves are all dark but center leaves are light, I canโt tell if the big fan leaves are wet or shiny...
!! if theyโre shiny like plastics looking too much N going in!!
And here is some stuff about iron
โWhen you have a deficiency of iron other nutrients can stop the uptake of iron.
If in high amounts such as calcium, zinc, manganese, phosphorus, copper. According to Wikipedia.โ

Edit: if you are feeding Calmag then you could be locking out iron, Iโd be having a think about it TBH all I can see is there is staple amounts of N and theyโre looking overall healthy, you just donโt want any issues now before flower. Hit me up if you have any thoughts peace brotherโ๏ธ๐ป
@PharmaZ, yo interesting i'll have to check if I'm feeding iron actually. Not sure, but i do think so. I'm not feeding any nutes at all so far, stems green, lower leaves a bit darker than the top ones, i think the leaves "look shiny" because i f-ed up the foliar spray and there's white residue all over the place DOH ! ๐ will tag you when i get more pics in...
16 weeks? Wow time is running so fast... they looking amazing... i remember these girls was little baby memories lol... Keep up to good work Bulbi respect! โ๐ป
@CRiSPrGrow, Great Feedback as usual!! Thanks for doing such good work with our genetics (and for the community!), it's really appreciated!! I'm glad you're enjoying the SIx Shooter =)
@Fast_Buds, after 4 weeks , the cure really opened up one of the phenos : i'm tasting pine REALLY clearly now on one of them - amazing... will update this diary to reflect that, can i just say FBT1 is a fantastic smoke too... but about the Six Shooter : This one should be a flagship for you right? i hope this diary starts a trend ! ๐
