First time growers here. So still researching and learning all that I can. Pumped to see my first grow pan out. Looking forward to a lot of interaction with other growers on this platform. Please give all the advice you guys have ! These two blue dreams are looking healthy so far. Just ph balanced water right now for the first week. (6.1-6.2) Then I’ll be feeding cal mag and the general hydroponics trio. I’ll follow along a chart that’s similar to this.
Feed schedule
Mix order as follows: (room temp first) cal mag- micro-gro-bloom -ph water
**Proper PH- 5.5-6.3
Veg ph: 6.0-6.5
Flower ph: 5.5-6.1
**Per gallon on feeding
Seedling
Days 1-7 just Ph balanced water
7 days old start feeding
Day 8 (week 1)
cal mag- 2ml
Micro - 1ml
Gro - 1ml
Bloom - .5ml
Week 2-4
Cal mag 2ml
Micro 2.5ml
Gro 2.5
Bloom 1ml
Week 5-6 (early flowering) m
Cal mag 2ml

Week 9-10 (late flower stage)
Cal mag 0ml
Micro 2ml
Gro 0ml

Lemme know what you guys think!
First week of watering with nutes has gone well so far. But I did notice some very light discoloring on the base leaf of “Ricky”. Not sure if it’s anything to worry about or not. (Hard to see in the photo, it’s the blurry faint coloring on the bottom base of leaf)
Will continue to monitor it and see how it moves forward. I examined all leaves, above/underneath and found no insects etc. Also looking to spray with neem oil as a preventative soon! When and how should I do this? I have read online that spraying young plants can be risky. Is this true ?
Girls have really taken off this week with explosive growth. All of these photos and videos are on day 21 of the grow. Plan on doing some low stress training shortly.
Increased the nutrients by a bit this week! Lowered lights to 22ish inches.
Cal mag 2ml
Micro 2.5ml
Gro 2.5
Bloom 1ml
And slowly increasing the water amount each feed. They are reacting nicely to this approach so I will continue to do so.
Lot of growth this week. Performed LST on a few branches to expose more bud sites. Also defoliate a bit. Cut off 3 fan leaves from each plant. Up to 2 1/2 cups on feeding.
Most growth I think I’ve seen of any week ! Slightly starting to flower up ! Ph right around 5.9 and started the flowering stage of nutes. Still training some limbs around and tucking leaves to expose more bud sites. Hope this is going like it’s supposed to ! They look healthy to me 🤙🏼👍🏼
Continuing LST with selective defoliation. Things are going well so far... Possibly might have a bug problem. Keeping an eye on it as I’ve noticed some leaves looking to be munched on by some critter. Changing up the solution feed this week too! Excited to see the full transition.
Week went well and the buds are really starting to take shape. Leaves and buds really starting to frost up and look nice as well! Really hoping to keep this grow going well.. Fingers crossed !
Continuing selective defoliation and moderate movements on the LST.
Good week so far !! On to my last strength of nutrients !! Then the flush begins. Girls are starting to bulk up. Had to purchase a dehumidifier to keep the humidity down this week. Wish I knew exactly how long this strain went.. any idea ?
Day 67 Began flushing process on both plants.
Pictures are of day 70. Both are starting to fade out. Trichomes are looking nice. Hopefully I can determine when to chop these at the correct time. This is my first grow and I’m worried about the proper timing.. but regardless. Can’t wait to harvest.
Day 76. Day 9 of flush. The girl on the right is definitely more mature and fading out much sooner than the other (bigger plant). Both are really starting to fully express their colors and terps. Lots of berries and citrus terps coming in. And lots of deep purples and blues fading into the bud colors. Pretty flush in the fades.
Set up looks good dude! I’m not sure about the nutes you are using, but I figured I’d share some info that I came across. Autos (especially blue dream’matic) are suggested to get around 1/4 strength. Not sure if you knew, or read that, just wanted to spread some love. I’m excited to see how yours turn out almost as much as mine! I’ll deffo be following! 🤙🏼✌️🏼 Happy growing!
Hey man! Your Plants are looking nut! they are getting really dense looking nugs!! i am also on my first grow and i am also growing 420 blue dream'atic and i hope my buds develop as nicely as yours have!!
