Week one just finished. Mixed feelings and really struggling to know whether or not im doing something wrong, ive been feeding them nutes at full seedling strength and trying my best to keep the light at the right distance so they are happy, Started off in solo cups however i read that with autos its better to plant them in there final container so i transported them asap in order to stress them out earlier rather than when they are in flower.
Currently using 2x HLG 550 V2 R Spec lights in a 4x8 gorrilla grow tent. temp and humidity stay pretty contant but i get worried that im under feeding or burning them with my lights as there isnt much informati
on the HLG 550v2 lights. Any help would be appreciated im also using Cal mag by GH and also Algen extract by House and Garden.
Your guna have to raise the lights see if that helps try 90cm above the top of the seedlings if not you'll have to flush with some ro water and make sure there not overwatered also the pH of the water can be a problem
Coming to the end of week 2 (2 days left) For my first grow it feels like I've been hit with everything. I got 2 plants growing super fast and producing new leaves everyday, got another 2 plants growing half leaves and growing all weird and shit (Im unsure if this is because of something that ive done or because its genetic?) Then I got 2 little runts which idk wtf ive done wrong with them but they haven't grown much at all. Im not sure if ive overwatered them or if i damaged their roots when transplanting? All i know is that it isnt at the roots because i feed them and checked the run off water and it came out at a pH of 6.0.
Maybe its my my lights? But the other plants seem to love the light? Im currently running to HLG 550 V2 RSPECS in the room at minimum power which i think in total is 240w a piece so 480w and have them 90cm above the top of the seedlings.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
The photos are from the last day of week 3... Topped one of the healthy ones at the beginning of the week and she responded well, growth tips from the bottom all raised up, however one of the growth tips (I dnt have a photo of it) i decided to super crop it just to see what would happen as i still have more seeds of these we'll see how that goes.
I decided to pull the two that stopped growing on me and germinated 2 more LSD25 seeds and there in there as well.
The deformed ones are really intriguing... Some leaves come out looking normal, others come out as half leaves and just mangled.
Hopefully week 4 goes good for my babies and see what happens at the end of the week.
Pistils started showing however i dont think its in full flower just yet... This journal entry is the end of week 4.
Plants reacted super well with supercropping defoliation and lst. I made a few dumb mistakes and was rough with some all branches and actually broke one of the main colas that appeared after i topped which i was pretty upset about.
Been having a problem with humidity too, once my lights turn off the humidity rises so quick its crazy. Goes from 40% to 80-90%, going to keep my exhaust fan going 24/7 since it was hooked to the timer that my lights are on so hopefully that helps, ill find out tomorrow.
Are the light green colors on my plant mean somethings wrong? they grow super quick and seem very healthy but for some reason i cant get them to get any darker and have tried everything i can think of.
Suggestions?
Hey man, there's no need to worry, your plants are looking gorgeous. Some of the purple strains tend to grow more yellow leaves and yellow on much earlier in flower (this is normal). I don't think its a defiency issue or stress related. Happy growing 🌱👍
Check out my current FB black berry kush grow I have one plant the same thing. I've had this conversation with a few other growers concerning lime green plants. I've come to the conclusion it is just a different phenotype that is causing this non-issue. They seem to grow and bud exactly the same way as the rest. Now the other plant that you have with the deformed leaves once again check out my blackberry grow had the same but only worse issue. It is some kind of plant virus possible TMV (tobacco mosaic virus) which show up every now and then. You should be careful you can cross contaminate your tent,tools,pots and other plants with this virus. So use a 1 part bleach to 9 parts water solution to clean everything that has touched that plant. You can also put up a better photo and get some second opinions if you like. Good luck hope this helps.👍
It depends on a lot of factors. Some strains just grow lighter than others. The first thing to check whenever you are having what seems like a deficiency is to make sure you are phing your water properly and also check your runoff to make sure the ph in the soil is correct. If the runoff ph is wayyyy off(0.5 or more off) then you should flush with a bunch of properly phed water until the runoff ph is nearly back to normal. If PH is good and you are really worried about it feed a little more nitrogen and see what happens. If you start noticing the tips of the leaves burn a bit or the leaves start to claw then the plant doesn't like a lot of nitrogen and the lighter leaves are its normal color. If you are getting nice quick growth then it is likely not an issue. I've deff grown plants that have been super dark and not had any clawing and grew fine as well as some more pale plants that grew fine as well.
end of week 5. Buds started forming, plants grew like crazy. The also were a lot more sensitive to things like my lights as well as nutrients humidity was kinda low during the week so i suspect they drank more at the roots and thats why the nutrient burn happend. Next feeding will give plain pH'd water with some go roots and algen. other than that im excited to see whats going to happen over the coming weeks.
Any tips or pointers will be greatly appreciated!
So this week was wierd. 4 of my plants are in full flower, and I had started to babies 2 weeks ago which are showing pistils already which I'm confused about because all the others were much bigger and didnt start budding till the end of week 4 so I'm thinking maybe there was some sort of hormone or something that caused the 2 babies to flower early? Other than that toned it down on nutes as some were clawing and others had slightly burnt tips.
Week 7 Finished. Smell really starting to come through. One of these plants looks like its still a baby in terms of buds so i hoping she still has a while to go. Looks really amazing and smells amazing.
