10/15/2019: Planted seeds straight into FFOF soil on 10/12/2019. No germination techniques. Just soil, water, and light. Have not seen any seedlings sprout yet.
Hoping in the next day or two they will break ground.
10/16/19: This morning i awoke to 4 out of 5 of my seeds have broke ground. Watered them with 12 ml of water around each sprout then i
misted the top of the soil with a $1 spray bottle with pure spring water approx. 6.8 ph
10/17/19: This morning 4 of my plants have started seedling growth. They all have there cotyledon leaves and their first set of serrated leaves
as well. Unfortunately one has yet to break ground.. I am going to give it a few more days and then i'm gonna dig it up and try to germinate it
another way. Giving the seedlings approximately a shot glass of pure spring water at 6.8. Then i mist the top of the soil with my spray bottle. I am not sure when to start using my nutrients but i've heard that my soil has enough food for the 1st month of growth.
My soil is Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil. I also have the Fox Farm Nutrients:Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, And Grow Big. I have heard that this soil has enough food for 30 days of growth. My question is when and how much nutrients should i use considering i'm growing an Auto flower plant.
Hi mate please ignore the person that said to feed with pk13/14 at 1/8 and to feed, water, water then feed i remember listening to this advice over 10years ago when i started grower its literally spread from grower to grower just think of you as living organism just like a plant would you like to eat then fast then eat and fast plants dont either they always want food the problem is over feeding. For your first grow your doing great add pk at half strength if you like but cut back on tiger bloom when adding thats all keep an eye on your leafs if getting dark green feed little lighter as to not burn plants.
You should be proud really healthy plants keep up the good work 👍
10/24/19 : Its the first day of week 2. Still Watering Straight Spring water. Phenos #1 and 2 are looking good and I had some trouble Getting Pheno # 5 to germinate so i had to dig it up and i replanted it in a solo cup for now. Unfortunately i am having some problems with #3 and #4 especially #4 it is growing in a really weird way including growing on big serrated leaf for the 2nd set instead of an even pair with one on each side. If anyone looks at the pictures please let me know what could be causing this deformation.
10/26/19 : Its the 3rd day of week 2 now and Phenos #1 and #2 are looking good and #5 is starting its seedling stage Finally! But Im still worried about #3 and #4. They are still growing erratically.. Again please if anyone can please tell me what is going on with them i would appreciate it greatly!😀
10/27/19 : Day 4 I started running my lights on both veg and bloom switches turned on, I figured it couldnt hurt them and its giving them a more full spectrum. If i'm wrong please let me know.
10/28/19: Day 5 Today i gave my plants there first feeding. I used 1 tsp Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1/4 tsp Fox Farm Grow Big per gallon of water. I will slowly increase these to about 2 tsp and 1 1/2 tsp respectivley.
10/31/19 : Day #1 of Week #3. Today i fed my plants for the 2nd time, A mixture of Fox Farm Grow Big and Big Bloom @ 1 tsp and 1/4 tsp per gallon respectively. Please look at my plants #3 and #4 they are growing really crazy and i cant find anything telling me whats going on.
11/3/19 : Day #4 of Week #3. Phenos #1 and #2 Are really starting to take off. They Have lots of growth in each Inter node. I am going to
start LST soon probably at the end of week #4 at some point. Pheno #3 is still growing fairly well it just has some form of genetic defect. I have had people tell me it could be Tobacco Mosaic Virus but im not so sure since i have seen plants crossed together and they ended up with the same type of genetic defects.I am probably gonna get rid of #4 because its not really even growing anymore.
11/5/19: Day #6 of Week #3. I started LST on #3 i bent her down towards the side with the bad growth and over night she moved all her growth back over and up towards the light. I started LST on #3 first because i wanted to try it out before starting on my 2 big Phenos. Also i fed them again yesterday and i upped the dosage from 1/6 and 1/8 up to 1/3 and 1/4.
11/6/19 : Day #7 of Week #3. Last night i started LST on Phenos #1 and #2. This morning they had completely Swung around and now there is 3-4 top colas on each. I am curious how long i should wait or how to know when to start the next round of LST.
Week #4 Day #4 : I know i haven't posted an update in a while. Pheno's #1 and #2 are looking good since i Started LST on Them. I need to trim some fan leaves on #2 soon to let some light to the other colas. #3 is actually starting to look a little better it has 3 tops now instead of 1.
Week #4 Day #6 : My plants are showing sex now and they are starting Pre-Flower Stretch i think. They have been growing almost 2 inches a day.
I started feeding them a different mix of the Fox Farms Trio 1 tsp of Big Bloom and 1/2 tsp of Tiger Bloom per gallon. I am probably gonna transplant
#5 today.
PM Update : I Gave Phenos #1, #2 and #3 A second round of LST This afternoon. I also Transplanted #5 into her final home.
Week #5 Day #1 : Everything is going good right now. I am not sure if i should keep LST'ing the plants now that they are showing alot of pistils and starting to go into flowering. If anybody has any info for me i welcome it. I took shots of my plants from the side also to make it easier to see my LST so far.
Week #5 Day #6 : My Plants are starting to get big! They are Starting to get covered in bud spots and they are starting to grow suger leaves with some crystals on them.
Week #6 Day #3 : Everything is going great right now! Pheno #2 is starting to smell like roasted almonds or something. Starting to keep my RH a little bit lower for flowering closer to 45-55. Also They have been thirsty ladies lately and now i'm feeding them a little closer together now instead of having 2 or 3 waterings in between feeding. I am still keeping my feedings at 1/4 of the Fox Farm feeding schedules recommended dosing.
Week #6 Day #7 : All plants except #5 have stopped vertical growth and begun focusing all energy towards bud development!😀
Week #7 Day #5 : My plants are doing good! I started giving them an extra .5 tsp of Tiger bloom for extra PK and they seem to like it.They have been showing some nute burn on the very tips of some leaves for a while now but it hasn't gotten any worse so i figure i'm giving them the absolute max nutrients they want.
Week #8 Day #2 : My plants are really starting to frost up now! I started giving them 1.5 tsp of tiger bloom and stopped the big bloom to give them more PK and less Nitrogen. Also i ordered a digital trichome microscope so i'm going to try to start posting pictures of the trichomes to better monitor were my buds are at in maturity.
Week #8 Day #4 I posted a whole bunch of pictures of thrichomes from phenos #1 and #2. If anyone could tell me how many more weeks it will be before they are ready to harvest?
i will continue to post trichome pictures every week or couple of days.
Week #9 Day #5 : Sorry its been a week since i updated but i've been really busy.. I have been flushing 1-3 for a week i am gonna harvest them this weekend. I have been keeping an eye on the trichomes and they are starting to have a few amber ones and they should be ready in a week.
