Week five was a little nerve-racking for a few reasons.
- as an experiment I wanted to fim one of these three to see if an auto could handle it. I did it to Spongebob. Great success, and four new tops have shown themselves
- I noticed some leaves on the bottom of the three plants were showing some sort of deficiency and seemed to be stunted in their growth. After much research online I realized it was a calcium and magnesium deficiency. I thought it was weird as I've been using cal mag BUT I realized I was ph'ing my water too low so the plants couldn't intake the nutrients properly. This has since been flushed and fixed and the plants have recovered well.
Technically as I write this it's the beginning of week six and I have now seen pre-flowers. I'm very excited. Also I realized that I started this diary too early by about a week. I was counting the first week from germination and seedling stage. It seems not many people here do it like that.
@Puffer_Bill, yeah I can tell. This place is a great resource. Reading all the comments I can tell how helpful people are, especially you 👍😎! This is my first ever grow obviously.
@Puffer_Bill,
No I havnt but that's bloody Brilliant. I've got the perfect nug in mind. I don't have a PC but I'm sure I can find something to speed it along.
@GreenBaron,
Have you fast dried some and tested. Apparently if you put a bit in front of a PC fan it will be okay. I'm talking just about a growers sample taster bud, not the whole lot.
How are you drying and curing?
@Puffer_Bill,
All their names are from that kids show sponge Bob Square pants. I was stoned and remember that Spongebob lives in a pineapple under the Sea. As it's pineapple express I thought my name's were brilliant... At the time lol.
