* Day 04: Added some Azomite to the soil. Hi guys, this is my third grow, but the first one with a top quality seed from a trusted seed bank. In the first try I've made a lot of errors and got little yield, and in the second run I got a little bit better with some lst and more light. This time I'll be growing in a small 2x2x5 tent with two fans for air circulation, an extractor and for the lights I got two 50w 3400K home made COB chips and a Wattshine P450 panel, the total real wattage is 168w. I'm thinking about adding two more of the COB chips, I will tell if I do so. So, this is my first top quality strain, I hope to have learned a little bit more so I can do better then the last and keep improving. I also have other plants in the house: tomatoes, coriander, rosemary, oreganus, aloe vera, thyme and a few others. As people might now, here in Brazil pot is still ilegal, growing also, so I do a stealth grow while hiding in plain site. My tent is in the kitchen of my apartment and is perfectly integrated to the ambient's layout. When people come I take the girl(s) out to the closet or bathroom and leave only the vegetables, so people is used to the tent, and as they have already looked some time before, they tend to forget about it, so in time I just leave the girl(s) there and they don't even care to ask about the tent anymore. I've been successful till now, but it takes some care. So... Northern Lights by Sensi Seeds, a dream coming in true. I can't wait for the girl to pop out, I soaked her for 8h overnight in plain water and planted directly in soil. The media is a mix of spagnhum peat and vermiculite. I did a bed with endomycorrhizae and covered it in moistered soil. I've add a thin plastic layer with some small holes on top of the pot as to keep humidity high, but I don't think I need it as I'm growing in the Amazon rain forest in Brazil, and the air humidity here right now is around 90% outside and 83% inside and not it's not a joke. =) So, keep following if you want to check it out and exchange some advices and errors, I will be glad to follow your diaries along too, just introduce yourself. Tchau, do Brasil =)

According to the Biobizz chart I should start at 15cm with 2 to 4 leaves. I have 10cm with two leaves. Should I start nutrients? From the chart.. 2ml/l BioHeaven... but if I would, how much would you advice? and when?

Hi, I read all the same stuff, you don't need to feed for a couple of weeks. They do sell sead starter nutrients and I think it is ok to add them. On the last few strains I started I fed a weak dose. I used basically 1/8 what you should normally feed. The dose is weak and gives them just a bit of food. I do a Feed, water the next two times then feed again. Gradually increasing the dose through vegetation. Be sure to ph your water. I did not think you have to and ran into issues. I have been told by others they never ph'd in the past and had bot ran into trouble. They have better luck than me. Best to be safe and do it. Constantly watch the plant for any signs like leaf tip burn. Plants look great. Happy growing!

My dear friend Grower ... you’re worried about your tric’s but you’re forgetting, like those others gentlemen’s in their advice, an important factor. That plant is green lush, full of N-P-K, and from my experience it will need 2 weeks to trigger the senescence and certainly another week or two to fade entirely to get a nice, clean and smooth smoke . Know you start to understand it’s more important to flush correctly your plant than having the perfect ratio of tric’s clear-cloudy-milky-amber-whatever... Plus the fact that you’re not use to the genetic will make a mastering of harvest window ( finishing the fade in the same time than your tric’s ) even more difficult . I seriously hope after all this you will understand it makes no sense to harvest the perfect tric’s ratio when you’re taking the risk to get a very harsh smoke ... or not ? 😊

Hey! I'm from amazon too! I'm struggling with my second grow. Last one was on coco coir and went totally fine. Sent you a message check your inbox. I'm truly needing some advices to improve my substrate (spaghnum+perlite). Struggling with top strain, like 1 month size of 1-2 weeks. Using biobizz too. I have 6 nice seeds to pop but I'm afraid as the first 6 arent going nice. I was checking your plant and WOW amazing! So maybe if I do exactly as youre doing I'll have sucess! Can you help your conterranian brother? haha thanks bro!! I have a super nice setup, hope you can help me see my erros and make it right for the next 6 seeds (lot of money wasted already cause our country makes everything harder... thanks much love for your plants!!

Starting off with a reputable seed bank is #1 and you will immediately notice the difference in the first 4 weeks, NL is a classic and has always been one of my favorite so you will not be disappointed but don't expect a Silver Have effect let's say. You are using the exact same medium as myself so if you have any questions I'd be glad to help you avoid the mistakes I made in my first grow. The high humidity is good for Veg but as you move into flowering, especially if you want buds full of trichomes you'll need to lower that to 40-50 max. NL is resistant to mold from my experience so that shouldn't become an issue assuming you have proper ventilation. Cheers and happy growing ;)

@GreenHouseLab, thanks for the tips, bro! welcome! i hope to see the difference in the next weeks, yes she is a classy lady, that's why I choose her and also for being mold resistant as Im in a super high humidity area, but I've got a super extraction and internal ventilation for a small tent like mine, so untill now i've managed to keep it clean.. thanks again for being available, bro. I will be following along your diaries too =)

Good luck on the grow, I feel your pain when growing somewhere that is illegal, I use a spare room in the house and luckily I don't have people coming round all the time but when I do they usually stay downstairs so it's all good haha When I was first having a go at growing, back before actually taking it seriously I started out with Hindu Kush from sensi seeds under a 20w led light that was terrible 😂 for some reason I thought it would be enough hahaha obviously I was a true beginner back them but after a experience and trial and error I now know what works and what doesn't 🤣 Sadly I couldn't get to harvest day with Hindu Kush for personal reasons but the overall quality of the genetics even under a terrible light was really good, there seeds are good quality but are definitely a little bit more on the expensive side! I havent shopped with them for a while but I may need to take another look at them 😎 Anyways good luck on the grow, have fun and keep it low key! Look forward to the updates. Also I've heard that NL can produce some incredible yields, exciting times ahead for you! 😊

@G4NJAG4NG, thanks for the kind words and advices, bro. and i think you should get yourself some hindu kush and give it a real try this time! I myself had this '20w' kind of grow too, I had two plants that turned out male after a long and never ending veg time! LOL looking forward to those incredible yields! I will check on your grows later on! =)

@amazongrow, isso, inicio da semana 3 ela praticamente para de crescer e começa a florar mesmo. Nesse momento é legal vc fazer uma poda de limpeza, tirando as folhas mais baixas q nao recebem luz e os ramos q nao chegaram no topo (se tiver). Vou te mandar um video de um segmento que o cara faz uma poda dessa pra vc ter noção, vale muito a pena, senao vc vai ter uma infinidade de pipocas e top buds magros. www.youtube.com/watch Ele corta no inicio da flora, eu gosto de cortar na pre flora, pq da pra saber quais ramos vao receber luz no final do estiramento.

@amazongrow, Growing indoors when you have the Amazon basin and equatorial sun?! Que dó. What a pity. I guess because of the legal risk. Native sativas grown there must yield many pounds per plant! Your little plant is thriving, and that’s because it loves Brasilian air even when grown inside. Boa sorte - good luck

Nossa, ela esta muito linda, pelo visto vai resinar muito ate o final. A unica coisa q eu vi e q eu faria (nao sei se vc ja fez, pois essa observação se aplica mais na terceira semana de flora, lá vc postou foto dela de perfil) é uma poda lollipop, pros buds concentrarem o esforço no topo, eu ja perdi muita produção com as pipocas q rolam la embaixo.

hi my friend ! everything goes well it seems.... i saw all you diary and try to check all ur paramaters...and i realize your humidity 😳😨 OMG !! 😜 !! is it possible to find tricoderma easily on brasil ? i roughly recommend you to see if you can find it ? it is one of the best shield that you can find against pathogens agent who like humidity 👍👊…. by chance (you are a Lucky guy ^^) i'am going to update my diary for the second wich for a large part will be dedicated to fungies and bacteria's secrets agents 😜 with a lot of tips i think 💪 namasté 🙏
Budofpray
Budofpray
@amazongrow, yo buddy ! yeah in a sense it s true ! if u add trichoderma récent study tends to demonstrate he can compete with myco a bit, that's one of the Reason that It is clearly advisable to well prepared the soil by a correct mix (good dispersion in soil) and add char (for carbon). but the same studies are done on controled conditions and are done in order to optimize certains cultur according to certain plants/parameters. in the natural biotope, all this kinds of fungies naturally exist and compete until they are fixed... until they find a good place to work... and if we want to simplify the main abilitie of this 2 fungies family : myco are good to feed the plant (for P.K, and lot of micro nutrient) and its role of Defense is only to compete by the place against pathogens… the main action of trichoderma is to protect against other fungies and pest...it s like a fighting shield. he had the ability to kill other pathogen fungies and even nématodes by breaking membran or chitin...he also produces molécules that goes on the branchs and leaves wich protect against bad fungies infections by the air….his second role is to feed the plan by N in exchange of carbon. if i had the money and good equipment, It would have been fun to do a complete study dedicated to weed around this fungies 👍 and yeah i'am agree 😋 have a good strain changes life 👊 🙏
amazongrow
amazongrow
@Budofpray, I've added some endo mycorrhizae, it seems to make a difference. I know about tricoderma but I dont think I got since Im using sterilized soil, but I heard it can be quite problematic sometimes, as it tends to overpower all other bacteria and fungi, is that true? Yeah, its 21:24 and humidity is about 90% in the grow right now, lots of ventilation required. Never saw mold in there though, but I clean monthly with lots of alcohol and essential oils. Im already lucky by having the pleasure of growing and top quality strain like this NL from Sensi seeds, totally different from all the others I've seen and tried. I will be checking your updates! Tchau, do Brazil =)
