Wasn’t planning on popping this seed but it feels wrong leaving an empty space in the tent so I thought why not, never done OG Kush before so I need to know if I’m missing out.
Strain: The OG#18 - Reserva Privada
Nutrients: Mills Nutrients
Medium: DNA x Mills Coco & Cork
22/02/19 - this bean germinated so fast it was unreal at least 1/2” tail within 24hrs of just being in the water & after 48hrs it was at an inch but twisted around itself but it did break through over night but again also has the wax holding the leaves together but over sprayed with ph’ed water.
27/02/19 - This one is great, I popped the seed 24hrs after the gelato and this one seems to be developing its leaves a lot faster than the rest, so far really happy with DNA and with mills nutrients, it’s a lot easier to mix and I no longer have to use ph down because once all mixed it’s at a 5.8/5.9. 👌🏻
02/03/19 - Just transplanted all into their final pot, just in time I think as it looked like the roots were starting to circle at the bottoms of the pot, sprinkled half a tea spoon of Mykos on each hole prior to the transplant & fed them 2.5 litres each. I was going to saturate the whole pot but I’ll do that next feeding.
Their appears to be little brow spots/specs scattered on the fan leaves, I feel like I’ve seen it before but completely forgot what it was so if anyone knows if it’s a deficiency of any kind it would be appreciated. I ruled out nute burn because only one out of four has it.
Hey there, so usually when i see these rust, brown colored splotches my first thoughts are phosphorus deficiency and calcium deficiency...the phosphorus will hit lower leaves and the calcium usually will hit newer leaves but it can also attack leaves that are "growing" so pretty much any vegetative early growing is fair game.
But you cant ignore the possibility of pests or root troubles like others mention. ✌️
06/03/19 - unfortunately this was my own fault for being gullible with a mix of just not thinking, but I got a cal deficiency on my OG which was fitting seeing as everything was going well, but I think I have resolved the problem as I’m not see the new growth being affected but I do think it has slowed down in growth abit but I’m guessing that’s understandable, I’m really happy I’ve turned to mills as I can tell a difference from my previous grows, this slight hiccup was my fault but they were that healthy I’m almost positive it’s gonna spring right back 🤞🏻
09/03/19 - definitely looks like it stopped growing for awhile as the gelatos are a hell of a lot bigger now compare to my OG but I think the problems been solved as their was only a little progression on some of the newer leaves but the newest set of leaves seem unharmed includeding the side branches.
12/03/19 - a lot smaller than the gelatos but never the less I’ve started the LST/leaf braiding with the OG aswell to make sure the side branches catch up as they were stunted from the cal mag def
All looking alright now just abit of stunted growth, looks like the Og is 3 days behind the gelato but I’m still going to be flipping the lights to 12/12 by the end of week 4
Well it seems that she’s came back from def but ever since then she has been a pain, can’t leaf braid or LST because the side branches have 0 flexibility so ima just have to leave it be until then, again some weird leaf marks I’ve never seen before but I don’t know what it is but I’m sure it’s nothing serious
Tbh it’s looking alright , definitely stunted in growth and couldn’t really leaf braid or LST so I’m just letting it grow how it wants, might put it on something to raise it up to keep an even canopy, but I’ll do that once I know it’s stopped stretching 👌🏻
First time feeding her some bloom nutes (C4), Mills nutes having been great so far so it will be good to see what their bloom nutes are capable of as I think mills is very underrated and I’m anticipating a great harvest. I have also put the OG onto a 20litre air pot to raise up and try and level the canopy and also defoliated the bottom 1/4 of the plant.
Long time since update but I’m unsure on what to do with the Og because of what happened during veg it’s definitely a week behind the gelato so it’s either risk overflowering the gelato or cut the Og 1 week too early, like to hear your opinions if possible as I’m thinking of prioritising the gelato.
Being honest, this had potential but I failed it, majority of the plant looks like popcorn buds except the main cola but it was a struggle to deal with since 14 days in and ever since then it continued to be a nuisance and I ended up giving up on it in the end.
Hey gibby I was just curious how you like to water? It seems like you have a pretty nice nutrient line up. Do you use like 1 gallon containers or a larger one or a blumat type setup? Last summer i kept having a struggle but with only 1 out of 3 plants and i kept trying to fix things and then realized I wasn't continually shaking(stirring) as i was watering so some plants probably got more nutrients than others. I've tried to be a little more precise nowadays
@Experimentgreen, the only thing I dident have in my line up until today was the cal mag, and seeing as it only affected the OG#18 it made me think it had to be the cal mag deficiency, and a reliable mate who’s helped me a lot also thought it was a cal mag def
@No_Clout, I didn't think that your nutrient lineup seemed excessive, but just solid. So that's why I was curious about the watering because it seems like you have everything in place. Nutrient wise, I wonder what and where it's lacking, if you're having a deficiency.
@Experimentgreen,I can definitely rule out pests/root trouble as I’ve never had that problem before, I live in a flat so I rarely get bugs in my spare room and I always make sure when I water the temps are never too cold or too hot, I appreciate the help mate as it does mean a lot.✌️🏻
@No_Clout, Haha shh and I forgot these weren’t autos but hey it’s all good, same shit basically recovery will be longer lol
Yea get some myco in the holes👍🏼
Btw if ur using bennies make sure if your using any strains of trichoderma not to use in conjunction with Mykos or you’ll have a fungal war, you can look it up✌️🏻
@PharmaZ, thanks mate lmao, you taught me well 😂 I’m using start-R which is pretty much rhizo so I’ll spray with that, also should I sprinkle some mykos around the roots before I TP aswell?
@No_Clout, UK give you some feedback so far all the shit I seen you grow looks top shelf! I’d be happy to puff away :?)
On a side note, I’ve always found when you TP autos earlier is better. Between 10-14 days judging on size I would say your looking at transplant in 2-3 days max. Or she’s going to start wrapping her roots and dropping, you don’t want that trust me sets you back a week or 2 on harvest at this stage. Rather than watering before you TP get a sprayer/mister soon as you pull the plant out the pot give it a good mist. Using Rhizotonic or whatever your root booster/kelp product you’re using add that at half strength to the sprayer too, good luck👍🏼
As green was saying about the mixing of nutrients it’s also crucial to have it oxygenated. If it’s stagnent or the fresh water cannot reach the bottom of the coco in the pot it’s time to start getting run off.
The humidifier. It’s blowing straight over the plants is probably excessive, could be the plant taking water from that, just a thought...
@PharmaZ, I can’t really move the humidifier cause it’s a rather small tent but I have turned it down from when you mentioned it the other day so it’s not as bad & the the reason u saw the humid air a lot in the video was because on the angle I had my phone but I’ll update everything in the next hour or so to show u the update fella. 👌🏻
@No_Clout,
Here goes long one lol
In your video it looks like the plant is getting the most of the cloud. If the other plant you’re talking about with specks is in the flow as well I would think about moving the thing.
Reason for my thought is that when there is a high humidity, water + nutrients won’t be taken up by the roots. Calcium in particular moves into the plant without the need of photosynthesis, magnesium too. They are however imobile meaning once fixed it is unable to move from the cell walls...
if the humidity is too high the leaves won’t expel water. Cal is a typical deficiency when humidity too high.
You also transplanted them only a week ago if you didn’t soak all of the coco could be no cal available as the coco fibres are absorbing it...
Have a look what happens with calcium in coco, it binds to it, meaning you need to charge that shit up so it’s all filled with calcium molecules. Some reliable sources I know use 4ml/l Calmag first 2 weeks.
as you know I’ve not used coco for long myself but I’ve read a lot and can guarantee you won’t have any more problems if you keep using 0.5-1ml/l
I’d wait till the lights are out and spray some Calmag + that vitalise your on the leaves by the time they come back on again. The plants will have absorbed all the water and you won’t need to do that again for 2-3 days.
After the 2 applications just continue with feeding in water
The spots won’t go away eventually they will become brown and crisp. So just forget about the leaves that are effected mate concentrate closely on new leaves. ✌️🏻
@PharmaZ, it’s the furthest away from the humidifier and the two close’s are doing fine, and the past two feedings theirs been excessive run-off so I’ve left them to dry for 48hrs then gonna feed them again tomorrow evening about 3.5litres each,I’m not sure to what it is tho cause some the gelato had ting rusty specs but nothing anywhere near as bad. But I’m not sure if the problems fixed
@PharmaZ,I’d love to get another smaller set up but I think I make enough noise in the flat atm lmao but I am planning on cutting them all at same time, when do u think I should start flush?
Mate looking much better!
I guess the reason I have so much to say is because I have to rule everything out. Trying to help you by thinking of shit you may not have.. or trying to find out what you have already figured out if you get my drift ;)
When you water, do you water them all together in a tray or individually, and are they suspended out of the run off?
@PharmaZ,I totally understand that mate it’s why I reach out to you for help because it’s always better to get a second opinion, I do water them all together but I bring them into the bathtub to save having to
Keep emptying the tray each time, I have a long tray (1.75m) which I let them sit in after I watered them in the tub so it lets them drip any excess off before putting them back into the tent.
Yes looks like calcium def to me, what coco you using same or different?
Go ahead and get a good run off, drench the pot and add some cal mag.
(If you got ec meter check run off ec?)
Nutrient companies like canna etc say there is enough cal and mag to use with tap water soft as 0.2-0.4ec but this is just not true because the type of calcium in tap water is not usable by the roots asfik. In coco low ec tap water a healthy dose of calcium & magnesium oxide (canna Calmag)
@PharmaZ,I’m using mills x dna coco & cork, also mills a&b has an extra boost of cal mag supposedly so that’s why I’ve not been adding it into the mix but I’ll see how their like in the morning and hopefully it’s all good as I have them their regular strength nutes at around 3.2litre each to make sure their was run off
Sorry to hear that things on this grow didn't work out that well.
The cola bud looks pretty frosty.
I hope what you did get... blows your head off 😀🔫... in a nice way... of course.
😎✌️🏼
