First fertilizer on day 12. Dissolved 2 tums tablets (calcium carbonate) , 1/4 teaspoon potassium chloride (no salt), and 1/4 teaspoon epsom salt in 1 litre of yogurt whey. Made a final solution by adding 1/2 litre of this to 7.5 litres of water. Gave 2 litres to each pot. Followed by 2 more litres of plain water in each pot. Soil was quite dry before this.
The pyramid seedling is a little narrower leafed and just a bit slower growing than the Canuck. I feel both are doing quite well. I also have 2 Sweet Honey Peach autos I am covering in another diary that are faster growing than the amnesias.
As pictured about three leaves on my Pyramid are showing a reddish spotting pattern between the leaf veins. I’m thinking calcium, possible low ph. Do any of you awesome folks have a different idea that I am missing?
Is it possibly that you misted something on the leaves there? If so then it may have burned the leaves. But unfortunately I think these spots are from insects taking bites out of the lower sides of the leaves. I would get a maginifying glass and inspect the bottom of the leaves for bugs. Hope this leads you in the right direction.
@Mrs_Larimar, thank you for the tip and your encouragement. Took my other plants down yesterday (except for the Ace) but I will keep in mind for the future.
Iam guessing for a heavy feeding with p+k or a wrong ph.. you also got insect bits. Neemoilsolution helps you nicely against them as long as there is no flower ( 1 l water, 1 tsp neemoil, some drops dishwashingsoap) if girls in vegetation you can spray it, if they are in flower you may have to use a sponge to put it on the leaves
Thanks all for answering question. My first thought yesterday when I spotted it was insects . I removed the plants from the area and did some weed control right away. I like a few camouflaging weeds around but they were getting out of control and attracting some caterpillars and maybe gnats with last weeks dampness. After reading the posts this morning I sprayed with an insecticidal soap and removed affected leaves. There is a web in the video but it’s from a friendly who I removed before spraying for the bad guys.
I’m pretty organic so never really bother with ph. It tends to trend down for me during wet weather and upwards in dry. If the rains return I’ll give s little calcium carbonate solution to raise it a bit.
Again I love this site and the awesome folks who help others! Thank you all and happy growing!
Hope that answers your question. Feel free to ask if you need anything else. If you find bugs then some diatomaceous earth or neem oil will wipe them out pretty quick. Good luck
@ODNTrick, glad to help. We all have times when we need a fresh set of eyes on our crops. Looks like you are already on your way to recovering them with the soap. I always sprinkle some diatomaceous earth around my outside plants as a preventative measure. It works great on the tiny bugs.
@GreenCanuck, thank you. I’m looking forward to the harvest... just waiting for some weather... should be a front thru tomorrow to bring some good drying weather. I’ll be drying outdoors under shade with big paper bags to regulate drying speed. Just need a good forecast.
Well glad your getting the little leaf issue taken care of man hate seeing a good girl getting hit at all cheers ...this site is awesome lots of people to help out ..
Just doing some recounting on my days :week 7 photos should be tagged day 42. Week 8 photos should be tagged day 49 as my week 1 was posted on planting day not 7 days into the grow.
