These are growing well just starting to introduce root juice as this soil allmix.
Just topped two let it grow 6 nodes and topped to the fourth. Will top the same with other four (slower growth).
Didn’t realise using airpots the water goes everywhere so put compost pop up bins to stop this. Just an idea not sure it will work.
Using airpots.. water goes everywhere bit of a nightmare as I am used to fabric but thought a better idea and easier to reuse.
I’m not convinced yet! I used pop up garden bins as an idea to pop up when watering so tent doesn’t get soaked! But too much mess and hassle I’ve ordered a large tray 10cm deep hoping this will work better and be cleaner and easier to manage.
Was away on hols so need to try and train a bit behind.
First time having a fungus gnat issue!
First I put out sticky pads (it has reduced them down can’t see many now)
Second I used diatomaceous earth powder for to treat any eggs in top layer of soil.
Thirdly I have bought pure neem oil with horticulture soap (used to emulsify) it says to apply without the light on. So will use tonight around the air pots.
I think the airpots are an issue as the gnats have been hiding in the holes making it harder. Fingers crossed the plants and roots are not affected too much!
Finally got rid of the fungus gnats fingers crossed!
I will never use air pots again I had to transplant (late stage in veg which I’d never normally do) and went back to fabric pots! Best decision! The air pots were drying too quick aswell.
The three blue kings are the two taller plants.
The 3 black dogs are smaller and bushier.
Also switched to flower increased the LED quantum lighting from half power to full now 550watt. Next time I will do gradually.
I think Bio grow can easily cause nutrient burn so I’ve adjusted down to 0.7 per ml.
I thought I got rid of fungus gnats just seen a few again. I will spray neem oil tonight when lights go off. I have put more sticky traps out.
Wondering is it the soil cre all mix. Only purchased as they had no all mix biobizz. First time using different soil my previous plants were all done with biobizz light mix.
The branch split on one of the plants right down the middle but using black tape and seems fine I will take this off next week (and the plant usually fixes itself). Again that’s down to training late on.
Defoiled a good bit and got rid of the spindly parts that won’t make the top canopy.
Wondering can anyone help I have previously had nute burn on leaf tips but the colour would be brown I now have a whitish colour?
It’s not too noticeable but it is there does anyone know what this is? I will post two pics up to try and show cheers!
at this point is nothing to do much to do maybe add a little hydrogen peroxide to your water
it will kill most of the gnats but for you next crop
i would recommend brewing some organic tea to produce
mycorrhizae i use seaweed extract +piranha /tarantula /voodoo juice + aerated water a little nitrogen (my own recipe)lol and for the burn tips it is mot defiantly Zinc
but the (whitish color) is lack of nitrogen which organic tea would fix but not on the last 2 week but for the next crop 👌
Yass Queen ! Those burnt tips are still nutrient burn, probably just a touch less severe than last time or it could be a genetic/phenotype variation so it looks slightly different but it's the same thing. Pretty sure it's not Mg deficiency as this affects older leafs first and the yellowing starts between the veins of the leafs, and it doesnt look like a Zinc deficiency (which is exceedingly rare) . Just dial back the nutrients a touch and the problem will stop spreading after a few days to a week (reaction times for plants take a while - that's why) . Hope this helps ! 🚀
Had to flush through with plain ph’d water to help use up any excess nutes. Leaf tips showing signs of nutrient burn. Also running some calmag through.
Should I be giving nutes every watering? I think that’s where I go wrong and always nute burn early on.
Still have the problem with the gnats I have tried to got rid but they are def coming from the soil. I’ve put damateous earth powder on top layer of soil and been spraying neem oil at night but when you think you have them all the next few days they are back again. Does anyone know will they affect the buds when in full bloom?
Some of the pistols are turning brown and curling in this early anyone know why? It’s been super hot here but temps in tent no more than 29 degrees and then 23/24 at night. I uploaded 4 photos.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Still having issues with fungus gnats! I thought I had got them all!
So today I put perlite on top of the soil to protect the soil more and it has made it easier to see and get them.
Today I also flushed again with plain phd water. I heard keep PH within a range so I always done one water 6.5 and one 6.3 and alternate. But I brought right down to 5.8.
One plant on the last pic three blue kings seems to be growing slower and a lighter green colour that’s why I adjusted the ph down to see if this helps and will feed next time. I was giving feed too often and only realising this grow.
Also the black dog several pistols are browning? I have read this could be normal under LEDs?
I also put the wooden poles up this enables me to tie up when they become heavier.
Again any help or advice would be great!
Decided to cover the soil with gardening fabric. Treated the soil again with neem oil. Never using this type of soil again!
I think without the fungus gnats the grow would be going better.
3 x black dog starting 2 week flush this week.
2 x three blue kings not to be flushed until next week. But they are not looking too good especially the smaller one. Again maybe root damage from gnats these two seem to be more affected. Great seeds though and the buds smell really fruity. I have just tied up with plant yo-yos.
Can’t wait until this grow is over fungus gnats are confined to the soil just cannot get rid of them. Going back to biobizz light soil and next time wanting to try and grow in coco.
Starting to flush. Black dog looking good three blue kings smell is something else.
Can anyone advise if this plant has hermied in the video? There is like banana looking leaves sprouting out?
Had a bit of trouble this grow last two days they shot out bananas and I got them just in time any later there would have been more seeds. And doing two types is not good when starting out. Happy with the smoke more happy with three blue kings would do again on their own.
