Starting off nicely. Easing into the nutes slowly. First indoor auto grow. In 5×5 tent 1000w hps. Hoping Exhale Co2 bag will help growth rate. Will be experimenting with different nutrient ratios and LST techniques along the way.
They really taking off this week! Gave nutrients at full strength to all. My hps bulb seems to have been dimming over the last week or so. Replaced that with my MH bulb it seems much brighter. Hoping the next few weeks they will explode with new growth. Probly start some LST in the 4th week.
Amazing growth this week gaining nearly an inch a day. Humidity has been high I'm guessing exhale CO2 bag is adding alot. Wanted to see my soil drying out faster but they all look to be fine. Going to do some ph tests this week. Have a few leave tips curling down and yellowing. Hoping it's not burn. I use ph perfect advanced nutrients but havent had a meter til now.. soil ph is reading around 7 so I need to figured out if stuff is working properly. One plant was topped and 2 others have been starting LST bent with wire. Temps seem more consistent with the MH bulb for whatever reason... One has shown the first signs of pre flower. Hoping that killer stretch will continue for a couple weeks. One more veg feeding and I think we will start flower nutes. Overall very pleased so far! 👌
Sorry guys for the amateur pics. Will be more detailed as the buds come along. Also all my updates are added at the end of the week. They are doing well starting to see preflower signs on all except the one that was topped of course. That one is still on veg nutes. All the others are on bloom nutes. Short one is about 18inches tallest at 28 inches. Tall girl has had the least stress and training. Still working on ph issues. Don't know if i should trust my cheap ph pen or not.
All are looking very healthy. Even the one I topped has started flowering. Probly will finish a week or 2 behind. The monster is at about 34 inches. Smallest at about 24. Next feeding will start adding big bud into the regimen. Mixing 1.5 gallons of nutrient solution and dividing it between the 5. Not much else to say. Should really fatten up the next couple weeks. Stay tuned! ✌️
Showing their stuff. Getting warmer where I live might need to cool it off a bit. I think there could be a couple phenotypes here. Not gonna be as fast as I thought probly
They have all been developing nicely. Slower than anticipated. Probly needed more perlite mixed in the soil seems to hold the moisture too long. I'm guessing another 4 weeks to harvest or so
If you really are feeding 4.4 EC/ 2200 PPM, then yes you are over feeding by a lot. But that seems to be a mistake, since with that strength, it would be a miracle you have not burned it to a crisp.
Ive been overfeeding!! Been on water all week fearing lockout they havent done much last two weeks. Look more sativa dominant at this point. Gotta bulk up! Any feedback is appreciated!I also defoliated alot this week
I see a little yellow on the tips of the leaves, that's nothing to he qorried about. To me it looks like you have defoliated too much, but as far as nutrients go I think you're doing okay. How often do you feed? I usually feed everything 3rd or 4th day, watering every day in between
Hopefully getting back on track. Starting to smell sweeter. Still need to pack on some girth. Feeding less than half of what I was weeks 6 thru 9 or so. Hoping I flushed any buildup away last week.
Ready to give up on these. Pretty sure I've stunted them by overfeeding. Nutrient lockout I'm sure. Buds stopped bulking a couple weeks ago. Just watching trichome development now to see when to chop. No more nutes
So this was a huge fuck up starting with my mistakes... overfeeding... poor medium...ect after about 4 weeks into flower they had already stopped swelling. Let them go as long as I could... the roots were so small and underdeveloped.... will have to try again one day
@wandering_sage666 was feeding every other day I think that's part of the problem. My soil is too dense also I should've added way more perlite. Really havent done a ton of defoliation overall only a couple times with ugly leaves and lower crap they just seem lanky with no substance. Stretched to much. I just looked at your diary. Congrats man beautiful harvest!!!
@Dabwizard, Maybe its your light or light distance. I use LED so I have no experience to offer in the way of HID lights. Its looks like you've chopped all the foliage off, but if its just grown that way with light foliage then I would have to assume something is off. Your humidity is a little high but I can't see that causing your plant to suffer in that way. I think either your light isn't close enough or perhaps the feeding every other day has stunted it. I would back off and feed every 4th day. Watering everyday in between.

@@Athos, I only have a cheap TDS pen to monitor my nutrient mix. It doesn't tell me the e.c. so idk how to tell that 4.4. I guess you can tell the e.c. from the ppm number? I follow the A.N. feeding guide on the budlabs app. And I'm not even mixing at full strength. One thing that confuses me is if I have a 7 gallon pot I should be mixing nutes as I would with a 7 gal reservoir, right? Lol. I don't mix 7 gals of nutrient mix only 1 gallon at a time and split 5 ways on all the plants. Alternating Water every other feeding roughly every 2 days. Should I only be mixing according to the amount of water given?? Thanks for any input. Still learning here
