Unfortunately this first experience went wrong, I had problems with air recycling.
Now I have solved everything and my new cultivation is growing well :)
Hi
Sorry for my English.
My plants grow very slowly and I can't understand why. Total spectrum LED light use, maybe this is an error? Should I turn on only growing cold light?
Use of Bio Organic Cellmax soil and Bio Organic Cellmax fertilizers.
Hello to you😉
Can you tell me your watering frequency? Are the photos of your plants taken just after their wake up phase?
I think you watered your plants too much your leaves are falling and if it's not when they wake up it's not normal
Water less and water than when your pot is light
May the force be with you 💪Good luck for your grow 🌱
@GanjaSmoker88, from what I observed on this stage you can turn on both modes: bloom and veg. BUT what is the distance between plants and light? The lamp you have is pretty good by the way.
Great grow bro light may have effected your plant alot of companies suggest there lights are doing more than they actually are this is mainly Chinese businesses if your doing a single auto plant in a small area maybe 1ftx2.5ft then a decent led light the 300w marshydro or the sf 1000 if you go for a 2 pound grow use a 5x5 tent and put the sf 4000with 10x 10l pots gonna get 3oz a plant
@MrRaid, my grow box is 1 meter x 1 meter x height 180 cm.
I don't think the problem with this cultivation was the LED, I had problems with the recycling of air. If you see my other 2 journals the situation has improved a lot.
I don't think my LED is bad or at least I hope (paid over € 600 ...).
@GanjaSmoker88,
My soil mix
3 part worm casting (25% organic 1-0.6-0.5 NPK)
1 part cal mag iron sand
3 part coconut husk
2 part peat moss
3 part old expired soil
Total 12 parts
Please notice my NPK come from worm casting and this last my photo for almost two months. Good result for auto too.
I have used manure, bat guano. I burned too many plants, stunted them, and killed them.
Auto is great. But less is more - said Phil.
@GanjaSmoker88, my language is Thai. Please pardon my English. I try to share my idea.
I look up Bio Max. Fantastic soil. But I think it is too strong already.
I think you can dilute it. 1 part biomax. 3 part inert soil. Add a little phosphorus (1/4 normal strength).
Inert soil is pearlite/coco coir/expire dirt. Ganja likes easily drained soil.
I fertilize too much all the time.
My favorite grower is @Philindicus he very meticulous. I make problems and try to fix it. He does it correct from the start until curing.
@Med_in_Tropic, Hello
My first language is Italian. For the soil I used Cellmax BIO Soil Mix:
Organic Matter: + 86%
Electrical conductivity (EC): 1.1 ms / cm
PH value: 5.5 / 6.4
Fulvic Acids 80%, Humic Acids 20%
Humified Grape Must: NPK 2-0-2 (Nutrition for Soil Trace Elements)
Soft Natural Phosphorus: Natural Source of Phosphorus
Rock Powder: Source of Mineral and Natural and Trace Elements
Mara algae for stabilization pH: 45% (CaO)
@GanjaSmoker88, non lo conosco, dalle recensioni sembra ottimo e molto fertilizzato. occhio a non aggiungere troppi nutrienti ,continua a usarne pochi.
Si le ho viste ,sembrano in forma 👌
@@Dana83,
Per queste Royal ho usato il terreno cellmax organic ma non mi è piaciuto e per il nuovo raccolto ho preso il terreno Universal Cellmax.
Queste piante le ho quasi abbandonate perchè avevo problemi con il ricambio d'aria ora l'ho risolto e sono partito con altre 5 piante (vedi diari), queste nuove sebrerebbe che stiano andando belle spedite e forti :)
Are you measuring EC in water coming out from under the pot?
EC may be too heavy, and the plant cannot absorb its food
In any case, there is no control over an auto plant so it can also be genetics, automatic plants usually small ones from ordinary plants.
@criticalkushweed,
Ciao
non sto misurando l'ec perchè gli sto dfando poca acqua e sottoil vaso non ne rimane mai.
Credo che le prime 2 settimane ho dato troppa acqua. Avevo anche un problema con il riciclo dell'aria, l'estrattore non rusciva ad espellere bene l'aria, adesso l'ho corretto e quando accendo gli estrattori la tela del box si risucchia perfettamente.
Adesso ho messo una nuova pianta che ha 4 giorni e stanno germogliando altre 4 sweet auto chees xxl, speriamo bene!! :)

Hello
no, I am not measuring the ec because I am giving it little water and under the pot it never remains.
I think the first 2 weeks I gave too much water. I also had a problem with the recycling of air, the extractor was unable to expel the air well, now I corrected it and when I turn on the extractors the box canvas is sucked perfectly.
Now I put a new plant that has 4 days and are sprouting other 4 sweet auto chees xxl, hopefully good !! :)
Hard to tell what the problem is but I think the previous comments about overwatering are right
They will likely need a bloom feed now too also, the buds will require phosphorus and potassium for development
Try letting your soil go a few days between watering or however long it takes to feel light in weight, it will force the plant to expand roots to search for water, which helps with nutrient ipdate/ability to absorb water quickly and efficiently
@GanjaSmoker88, awesome, hopefully you get some good stretch in flower for some more tops, in my grow my smallest plant spread itself pretty wide and solid, and is a big yielder in the end after staying less than half the height of others, your strain may be mostly indica too perhaps, which stays short by nature
@I_and_I,Hi, thanks for the comment.
I've been trying with less water for 8 days, I'm loading new photos tonight.
Yesterday I added fertilizer for flowering (week 5 started).
For your next grow, pick a photoperiod strain. I see a lot of first time growers picking auto strains, which are not forgiving -- they start flowering whether YOU are ready or not ;) Photoperiod strain you can keep in veg for as long as you want, and if you mess something up or have a deficiency etc, you can relax and take your time with it instead of feeling the pressure to fix it fast before your plants start flowering!
@GanjaSmoker88, make sure to research the strain you're growing! Find a photoperiod strain that's reported as easy to grow with high resistance to mold/mildew/etc. I started with 8 Ball Kush, it's super easy to grow, very forgiving, recovers quickly from mistakes, etc.
@Jwjoh, Thanks for the advice.
I am thinking of removing 3 plants because they are not developed at all and I don't want to waste any more time.
I try to put 3 other semi cars (because they are already available) and for the next harvest I use normal seeds. I hope to do better :)
To add to the issue you have faced. I can tell you that your roots have or are rotting. I can tell from the bleaching of the leaves the patchy looking white spots and over all health of the plant.
I would say that you watered to much did not let soil dry out all the way. The 1 inch knuckle test is wrong. In soil you must only water a little at a time. Not huge amounts so the whole pot is soaked. This is the wrong way In my opinion. Good luck👍🏼
