LST 3 of the four. The SOGK is still too small to really train but I've been moving the leaves around for more light penatration. The White Train is really taking off. And fairly easy to train. I just pinch and roll the stems to make them soft and it just starts to slowly sag. I use the green twist ties to lock them in place and within a few hours the colas (correct me if I'm wrong) perk back up to get the rays. OG Kush is lowriding hard right now but I was able to train the main stem to basically lay down so the under brush can get some light too. The 200w CFL I'm using is for flowering so I'm hoping the plants will like it more once that stage comes. I will try and get a veg spek next grow. For those who are keen eyed you may have noticed a few changed to the box. 😉 I installed a pc fan to pull air through the intake just like well a pc. I also raised the cabinet off the carpet to allow for thermal cooling. All sides of the box will now allow heat to transfer and escape. This has significantly cooled the box down. Last but not least I added a special touch to one of the empty net cups. Yup that's right... Cool probe in the building. I didn't want to cut a hole mid grow so I figured I'd drop it right into an empty net cup, and what do ya know... Rez Temps steady 64-70 depending on time of day. It did cause my Internal case Temps to rise but as long as my rez Temps are good, I'm good. Now that I have res Temps and heat damage and LST under control, I'm now focusing on PPM/pH. From what I understand, if my pH is in steady range and my ppm is dropping then my plants are happy and eating well. Is that about right? My ppm have been up and down. When I notice the water level has dropped and ppm is up I have been adding water. Which obviously makes the ppm lower by simple dilution. Hopefully I'll find that sweet spot soon where the plants love the juice I'm giving them.

Room is getting cramped. All the plants have bounced back from what I'm sure was root rot. I treated the root rot and trimmed the suffering damaged leaves. Threw in some LST and they all seem to be responding very well. I'll make another detailed post about the treatment process for those looking for some more Info on the "how to" do this.

@Darkmanx,root rot is usually caused by not enough oxygen to the roots .or the rock wool staying too damp

I'm not overly concerned with yield. Personal use only. Converting 75% of what I get to concentrate. Watching the video now. I like the grow boss vids. Thanks for the link

Some are cloudy. Pistils started to darken and curl up this morning. I'll get in there good with a mag tomorrow. Started flush today added some florakleen too. 75%of this grow is going to concentrate.

The White Train is out of control lmao. I swear it's growing by the hour. Compared to the others I would guess it's clearly a sativa. I'll have to look again at the spec sheet.

Are you going to transplant these ?

@Darkmanx, my auto kush would have been over 140 cm tall if i didn't bend the main cola. maybe more, right now she is psuhing 130, growing in 7 gallon pots in coco with root excelerator, but my kush got VERY BIG. I have 2 different auto kush strains going right now and they are both the tallest and strongest by far. I see why kush flooded the market years ago; it LOVES to grow, but she is HUNGRY

@BigDaddyK, I have been worried Bout tht. I am assuming since they are autos they won't get huge but my plan is to scrog the crap out of them and fill as much sqft as I can. First grow so its all experimental at this point.

@Darkmanx,just thought they might be a bit close together , when they become monsters 👍

Hey, I am trying to finish a 6 strain garden with a seedsman kush auto (started as an 8 strain), and I will tell you, the auto kush was my favorite. not for yield (the biggest by far, btw), but because whatever the auto kush suffered, the rest would suffer a couple days later (except the NLxBB). she is the canary in the coal mine of my crop. I am growing in coco under LEDs and she seems REALLY cal hungry, but my medium certainly factors into that and may not apply to you. It is also the highest yielder by far but its still going. Really good strain, following your grow. Good luck!

@mulch, growing outside of the box is not an option.

@Darkmanx, imho, you would grow way better and yield way more without the box. You look like you are keeping them happy, that is worth 10x what the box is worth. That Kush can be a monster. Just something to think about. Don't let the box limit you.

@mulch, good to see some success from this strainm I'm learning a vast amount from this grow. Starting to understand @BigDaddyK asking me about growing 5 in my little box. Room is getting cramped.

You should be able to flush for 2-3 days without hurting the other two. Just watch the leaves on the other two. Feed flush harvest feed flush harvest..... do it all you need. I have 47 branches to harvest so far I've harvested 1,6,3,6 at various times feeding in between (see my diary) and will still have at least 2 more harvests before my 3 plants are done. Some branches just mature faster. "Harvest no bud before it's time" Ed Rosenthal

@Tazard1, great advice. I will definitely try that out. Thanks!

Looking good! I just started my first grow and am seeing some similar issues with some necrosis on my leaves. trying to figure out if it is a cal or mag issue myself. Following and wishing you the best on this grow!

@Shydro, thanks for stopping by. I'm going to top flush today for a few hours and then change res with a few extra tsp of CalMag since I'm using RO. It's only the kush that has the spots. Temps get to mid 80's so could be a combo of both. Good luck.

2weeks is probably short but 3 might be long. Can you see the Trichs magnified? Do they have bulbous heads? They are probably still clear or maybe mostly clear? I’ll post a photo on my diary and tag you.

Man that box will not be able to handle the Diesel Auto size, take a look at my diesel auto in my diary, just to have an idea how big she will get. You will probably will need more watts in there, as rule of thumb if you veg a plant with X watts you will need 2X in flowering. Take in mind that the buds will loose about 75% of their weight after harvest. Take a look at this video www.youtube.com/watch this guy knows what is he talking about.

@BoneCrusher, thanks for the good vibes. If I could grow in a tent I would but at the moment it's not possible. Plus to be honest what I'm growing now will last me a year. I medicate as needed for pain. My bong ripping days are behind me but I do enjoy some edibles and tinctures

@Darkmanx, I mean dont get wrong man, micro grow is totally possible, but the Grow boss has its valid points and sadly he is right about the math,space and light, however at end everyone grows with its own method. I wish you the best of luck, but regarding the space you dont need a huge grow tent. I grow in 48”x24”x60” tent it cost like 70$ that perfectly fits in a closet.

@BoneCrusher,had to turn it off. Dudes condescending tone throghuout the video was getting to me. Maybe he had too many donuts the day he filmed and was Ona sugar high. Idk. Everyone doesn't have the luxery of a big 5x5 tent. Any amount I get will be more than I have now and that's my main concern. I've Learned a vast amount from this grow and next grow I will probably only do one but either way things are looking good and the grow boss needs to stfu cuz I think he worried about his business and not us. If he were then he would be helping those In need growing in small spaces instead of criticism and demonstrative bashing of a product he has ever tried. It's almoat like an industrial farmer belittling a backyard crop. You work with the space you have.
