Hello everyone, this is my 2nd attempt on growing tree. This time i've also choose RQS, last time i did was RQS - Lemon Shining Silver Haze the effect turn out super good but a little disapointed on the outside because the environment is not optimal since it's my first grow and it's hot and humid in summer where i live. This run i tried to get a better yield and of course nicer taste on buds. This is what i used and will used on this grow: Medium: 70% vermicompost 20% Coco coir 10% perlite Water: 6.2 PH water, water in the 100ml on the fifth day ( light misting on the medium everyday) Nutes: AN Grow Micro Bloom + Voodoo + B52 + Big Bud + Bud Candy + Mycorrhizae Pots: I'm currently running on the 1 Gallon pot and will transplant into a 7 Gallon pot later Light: 50W 6500K Led Bulb ( will increase the wattage or put the 600 wattage from another place to my grow) Technique: I think i will do topping and then LST like the last grow which i feel good about it The first week is kinda fine, i found the speed is the same as the first grow even though compare between indoor and outdoor, maybe because i use the small 50w 6500k led light for the seedling stage so it doesn't matter in change Since my veg room is a small closet i only have 1 fan inside and not any type of intake or outtake fane yet ( i might change to another room for better ventilation performance later ) Since i have my experience from my first grow i still need a lot of comment from the community because this help me alot in learning new stuff. Thank you all

If the plant doesn’t need it, adding a supplement can sometimes do nothing, or even worse it could hurt your plant. For example, if you add a PK booster when you’re already giving full strength base flowering nutrients, you could burn or even kill your plants! Pk Boosters and Shooting Powderd – With this type of supplement, the main ingredients are just Phosphorus and Potassium because they are important for flowering. These also sometimes contain some amount of sulfur. In general, use these sparingly as they’re usually very potent! And don’t forget that every quality base Bloom nutrient should already contain plenty of P and K. Giving relatively low levels of Nitrogen during the flowering stage helps buds fatten up.

Usually at 50d of bloom i will witness bud hardening but in my case it still not ripen and still have so many pistils on it. Might high humidity (65-70) the issue in this case. The fan leave are starting to yellow a little bit

The slow growth and ripening is defenitly because of the High Humidity and way too high day and night temperatures. In nature days are fresher towards the end of flowering and so should an indoor grow be too. U did defolation and that's a good thing because with this humidity bud rot is on the corner. Make the air flow very well and try to get it down to about 50% humidity. Let the girls dry out for a few days. The brown spots I cannot say what it is. Ph on point so the nutrients intake shouldn't be a problem. Dry them out and do a flush and try to correct the humidity and temperature. Plant still looks very good and maybe u should let her grow some longer to fully outgrow those nice buds. Still many white pistils so far from done in my opinion. Hope u get some answers from other growers too since I'm far from being an expert. Keep growing 😉

I always thought that critical was a short, compact and bushy plant 😁 Wrong guess haha. grew her once years ago and she was not too big but delivered nice thick buds. Looking forward how yours will be.

@Clutch, yeah i have a small dehumidifier but it's kinda decrease 5% of humidity i planning on purchase a bigger one. But i have bloom at 65-75 RH for 2 time and still have good quality 😁 thanks for the advice i will try to imptove.

@MisterSix, is there a way to get ur humidity down in the grow tent? 65% is too much by now. Should be around 50/55.
MisterSix
MisterSix
@Clutch, yeah actually she's around 1 meter but i let her grow to her full potential and this is my biggest plant by far. Hopefully i will get thick bud at this condition of 30 celcius and 65 RH. I'm curios on the total weight too 😁

Critical from RQS is a great Strain. easy to grow and a very good yielder.She may stop soon stretching and build nice Buds now is the right Time for some P+K boost
MisterSix
MisterSix
@Mrs_Larimar, yeah feed by the feeling work great too
Mrs_Larimar
Mrs_Larimar
@MisterSix,sounds great. To be honest i never measure the ppm......iam more that kinda " belly-Grower" i dont know if that word exists in english. Iam looking at the plant and at the feeding chart and decide what they get and how much .
MisterSix
MisterSix
@Mrs_Larimar, sure i've purchase the kool bloom from GH + with overdrive for the last couple week of bloom right now i'm feeding 1500 ppm AN line it is ok ?

you can always give your girl benefical stuff like silica and molasses. Silica and calcium help her to get a strong girl, shes already huge, and she will pack up more plantmaterial, silica strenghten her connective tissue
Mrs_Larimar
Mrs_Larimar
@MisterSix,thats great!!! silica is for all livig beeings, its for the connective tissue..

@Mrs_Larimar, hi what is the benefit of silica i have rhino skin from AN and have not use it yet it contain silica inside 👍👍👍
Mrs_Larimar
Mrs_Larimarweek 14
OMG... sheees big. looking great. And i agree Silica is good stuff for the cellular tissue of the PLant
MisterSix
MisterSix
@Mrs_Larimar, yeah it make the stem stronger, when she flipped in the 2nd week her branches is fall to one side because of the fast stretch. And rhino skin help it
Mrs_Larimar
Mrs_Larimarweek 10
She looks nice, dont miss it to give her in the trasition to flower and until the stretch takes grow nutrition, you can reduce it with the coming weeks and stop around week 3 or 4, or just follow the nutrition schedule. atm they got enough p and k

@Mrs_Larimar, yay it look pretty nice right now. I just want to put more PK in the mid to late stage of flowering. This is the only time i can get my tent to around 30 celcius i want to see the full potential product of this plant 😁👍

@DankGardener, thanks for the recommendation my plan is to use the booster from week 4 of flower add with reduced nutes to make sure it is not burn. If it ok or i give it the full strength and add pk booster. I will feel the plant and feed it by the feeling😁😁😁

Hey man best of luck with your 2nd grow. You picked a very “user friendly” strain to grow that should provide you with great results in your environment. I’m currently growing the same strain for the 1st time, and honestly it has been one of the easy strains that I have ever grown. The strain responds very well to topping, super-cropping, bending and flowers on the faster side. I grow via Recirculating Deep Water Culture hydroponics, and have some pretty good experience under my belt. Feel free to ask any questions that you might have. If you want to see what Critical looks like from seedling through the first 2 weeks of flower in my hydro setup I’ve included a link below: https://youtu.be/pXUPv8E3IZg Best of luck!!!
