The Highest Level Update
Eva Seeds high Level 16th Feb 2020
Apart from the odd burnt leaf Both Plants seem to be making a recovery and are developing strong healthy new growth.
Having not grown this variety before I am not sure as to whether the buds are growing slowly because of the stress I
put them thru or if its just the way this particular strain grows during flowering. Plant number is extremely branchy
in its growth structure and has to be kept tied down so that the buds wont rub on the greenhouse roof which could cause mold or other issues. Plant number two lost 80% of it's branches and leaves and is basically just a main cola on a long stem lol. The only reason It's still growing is because I pollinated it with a reversed sex Peyote Wifi clone from another Diary of Mine see https://growdiaries.com/diaries/49263-pineapple-chunk-peyote-wifi-grow-journal-by-grey-wolf
I will let it grow out naturally and hopefully I will get some seeds from a very interesting genotype cross.
Feeds this week were very standard with plain water 3 times overall then some Seaweed solution and Mycorrhizal innoculant 2 times and 2 days not consectutive of No feeds or water at all so that the soil could dry and allow oxygen
to the roots. Thankyou for Reading my Diary update for
my High Level Organic soil grow . Grey_Wolf 2/16/20
On Friday I sprayed my girls with potassium bicarbonate as an early flowering mold preventative as you can see in above pics it burnt them badly
My question is should I remove any or all of the damaged leaves etc? and yeh any advice on how to get them back on track would be great
I remember that one of the 1st advices that someone gave to me about growing was : don't remove a leaf if it's not damaged more than 70% because the plant will suck the energy out of it until if fold.
Of course that advise is counter balanced by the fact that you can defoliate every leaves that are blocking budsites.
I feel she'll bounce back during the stretch , you have one more week and new leaves should appear.
About the mold , if it's caused by a fungus then you can spray with a milk/water spray ( 9 part water 1 part milk to start and you can go 1/3 milk 2/3 water )
"If your plants are healthy, don't f#$k with them" haha. Wise words my friend. Words I need to abide by more often. Whenever I assert my control over them, they fight back. It's hard not to poke around and try new things but sometimes....it doesn't go my way.
Lesson learned though 👍. No worries👊☺️
@JinksyGrows, thanks mate and yep it is hard sometimes when I'm tempted to do this or that because it might make it better , sometimes less is more if you
know what I mean mate 👍
Distilled water with piranah and tarantula mixed in at the foliage spray rate, mixed using distilled water like suggested.. the leaf has a different pH and microbiome thats different than soil, by the sounds, you seriously alkalinized the leaf surface and perhaps the soil as well.. check the pH. Using beneficials, especially fungal beneficials can help make it difficult for moulds to set in, I wouldn't recommend it after flowers set.. hard to get rid of the residew. Also adding silica can strengthen cell walls and make it more difficult for the mycelium of the moulds to penetrate the leaf, bugs as well..
@DWCHC, cheers for the info I do like the advanced nutes stuff in hydro grows I am doing 100% organic with my soil grows Ive been using
Great white plus Azospirillum for the soil plus lots of compost teas mollasses wormcastings etc etc everything was going great until I did that stupid thing
@Grey_Wolf, it's pricey, but.. the best part about microbiologicals is that you can cultivate them as well.. so with a little bit of research on how to sustain their lives, one inoculation is enough.. unless you're using mineral salts in your fertilizer, then a follow up reduced application can replace the populations the salts killed.. living soil that's "Teaming With Microbes" is far superior than anything else in terms of quality of medicine..
PS the quotations are a book I'd buy.. it's one of my fundamentals when teaching...
Cheers
@DWCHC, thanks mate thats great advice I will check the soils ph tomorrow and boost the mycorrhizae again and I'll spray the leaves with distilled water
I dont have the advanced nutes root stuff
Ouch man! Sorry to see that. I would remove all the bad burned leaves. Anything more than 50% fried and give them a good misting of distilled water to wash them off in the evening.
@Grey_Wolf, yeah I have pulled several smooth moves and killed more than my share of nice plants. I think yours will make it though. Sometimes stress like that makes them try harder to bud so who knows....could be a blessing.
