dmac80started grow question 1mo ago

The two in the 5 gallon pots look slightly lighter green than the one in the 2 litre can. One of the 5 gallons seedlings is a bit behind due to shell surgery. I’ve just given them first good feed and increased light intensity slightly. Do they look healthy at the moment?

Yes, they are looking good. Since you are growing in coco, always water until run off...........never water just next to the plant and never just use a spray bottle, both these methods are useless, you need run off to help keep the coco from building up in nutrient salts. You will also need to feed from virtually day one in coco, it has zero nutrients. Coco growing is basically hydro in a pot. (I am sure you know all this, I wrote all this for the beneft of those people who gave you "advice" but did not even bother to look at your diary!)

dmac80 Interestingly the largest plant is in the smallest pot (2 litre Igrowcan), the difference in set up between the fabrics was that I used coco perlite 70/30 mix but with added biochar and I also added 15 grams of Zamnesia monster bud slow release fert. I then fed her just oh water and cal/mag for the first 3 weeks and then the same as 5 gallon fabrics from week 4. Initially her run off was off the scale but she seemed to thrive none the less and took over the other 2, run off has now levelled out to match the fabrics. I’m having to feed her up to 3 times a day at the moment due to the size of the pot. Next grow I will definitely be using bio char and monster bud in the larger pots in combination with the Hesi nutes.

Largest plant has stretched to the point it is about 4-5 inches front the light, I can’t move the light any higher or stop the plant any lower. Bud looks like it’s growing healthy. Just concerned with a few weeks still to go it will damage the bud?

Hey there you will be completely fine to have that plant super close to that light that’s only like 100w or 150w light that’s barely any light to flower some weed plants. For example I use a 500w light in my 2x4 tent and when my plants are flowering I have the plants only 5 to 6 inch’s from the light As long as you keep the temps in the tent in check you won’t have a problem with the light being so close heat would be the only thing to worry about it being close the umol’s are under powered

dmac80 Getting very cramped, LST the top colas on two plants to reduce distance from light but still quite close. No signs of heat stress yet. Buds developing well, some big white pistils. Smell is getting strong and watering a pain, pulling these ladies in and out every time. 2 plants max next time in a tent this size.

Do these look ok, half way through week 7 with average 10 week grow time? Stacks of trichomes forming and smelling really good but they look quite skinny at the moment and worried they are fox tailing?

Not "fox tailing". You still have 4-5 weeks at least (or more) to go...............buds will be completely different to what you think is going on now and you will probably be wondering why you were ever worried!

Everything looks fine for week 7 – no real signs of foxtailing yet. Buds are just stacking and still have time to fatten up over the next 2–3 weeks. It’s pretty normal for autos (especially sativa-leaning types) to look a bit skinny at this point. Just stay steady and keep conditions stable. They should bulk up nicely!

That's some monumental stretch more than I'd expect from where you switched to 12/12. Because we go generally from 18 to 12, if you still want to keep the high DLI when you switch to 12 you need to up the ppfd quite significantly to make up for the loss of 6 hours. If you keep the plant/light at the same distance and same ppfd as she was at 18 when you flip to 12 she will stretch very hard to reach the higher levels of ppfd required for the shorter flower period of 12 hours. Can't tell from the photo tbh but you should look to top at least once or twice this will encourage lateral branching and plant will spread wider as opposed to taller. I'd be very proud of myself if it was my first grow, well done Mr dmac, looking forward to seeing how much you can pack on those leggy ladies. Best of luck bruh.
