Finally got her going! Had some issues with germination, this is my 3rd attempt.. not sure what was going on but issues are all sorted now!
I'm using 2xQB96(v2)@150w/ea in a(n almost) 2x3x5 grow tent. While a seedling this girl will be tucked into the corner. Flowering zone is in the middle of the tent as that's where the light intensity is highest, on the opposite side to the seedling zone is where I veg due to it being the medium amount of light intensity.
I plant directly into the medium and since it was so dry (damn snow) I used a humidity dome.
My medium is Coco coir with no more than 15% pearlite. I use Gaia Green organic slow release amendments, this is mixed into the medium prior to planting. This ratio is 4TBSP per 1 gallon of medium (20TBSP for 5 gal). I use 75% 4-4-4 and 25% 2-8-4 at this time. I also added 1 tbsp of Mineralised Phosphate (Bat Guano) for root development.
I'm excited about this grow as I am much more experienced at controlling the environment.
In the 4th picture of week 4 I have pictured some leaf damage occuring on relatively new growth. From what I can google this appears to be a potassium deficiency, any opinions?
Hey there , that's a magnesium related symptom probably due to a heavy light schedule, the light being too close or perhaps a lock out but that s doubtful you know it's magnesium when the leafs burn on the serraded edges with yellowing between the veins often starting with the oldest leafs first. You can probably pick up on the mag but if you want to fix the root cause decrease your light schedule (you don't want to hear that I kmow) . Hope this helps ! 🚀
Hey there sorry to say I disagree with the advice you've been getting, I hope I answered your question though anything else you need just let me know 👊🏻
@CRiSPrGrow, MY MAN! that so it! I saw the potassium symptoms and just thought that was it! I had no idea there was a correlation between magnesium and light schedule. I'll drop it down to 18-6, cheers mate!!
Here's some pictures for everyone's reference. The magnesium deficiency that it most likely is https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/img/cms/Leave-graphic-magnesium-BIG.jpg
And this is the potassium deficiency I thought it was https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/img/cms/Potassium-Graphic.jpg
Thanks to RQS for the pictures but please ship to Canada soon! ;)
@Gabarram, hello! My feeding isn't done with watering, I use dry organic amendments so fertigation is never done in that sense. I water every 2-3 days allowing the medium to dry between waterings. Everything was too dry in my grow space, my VPDs were almost double what they should be and that's literally the problem with my grow
@MaxwellSH, they are fantastic boards! I'm looking forward to seeing the future of agriculture and horticulture, I'm sure it's going to be powered by Samsung LEDs 😛
They are so intense! I'm glad I'm running them at 150w because the heat from them keeps it high enough that nothing gets bleached. Although I'm pretty sure it's JUST far enough away, the very tip of my Cheese Auto top looks a little lighter than it should be 😝
Thanks for checking out this grow, hope to see you around in future updates! 🤙🤙
