Barney's Farm is a top breeder - and this strain is yet just another example. 100% successful seed germination. The plant grew really well once I established my nutrients mix and filled in its space very nicely. I absolutely loved its buds - in form, density, scent and colour! It was like a mango :) Can't wait to give it another go to get bigger buds as I think it could yield even more. Currently in jars curing, the smell is absolutely amazing, sweet, woody, and very tropical. From the recent samples, I've experienced a great sense of happiness and calm. I grew this strain specifically to make oil so cannot wait to start that process.

Nutrients
Great line for the vegetative phase. I personally struggled with it when the plants started to flower as I needed to reduce N and couldn't based on the line being an equal mix of A&B throughout a grow.
Used it all the way through the crop. It did great during the growth phase but very high in N so I will be looking for another product to replace this with as flowering big buds was inhibited.
Definitely helped the plants along in the early stages when nutrient uptake problems started to show.
GHE Flora series worked very well for me and was very easy to use with clear instructions and applications. Switched to this line half way through the flowering phase. Love the simplicity of the Flora range and ability to really fine tune what you are fertigating. Can't wait for the next crop to use this line all the way through.
Lights
Bright, bright - quality light. Perfect form for a 4'x2' grow space. Whilst my buds were all small during this crop, I believe the problem was due to my growing techniques and high N nutrient feed during bloom. This light has many wonderful harvests already documented and I can't wait for my next crop.

Harvested the plant in 2 stages over a week. It was lots of trimming work with incredible sweet scents throughout the area - beautiful buds to manicure. Lower buds got exposed to more light and hopefully ripened a little further over a week after the canopy was harvested. All remaining buds were harvested after the week, separated into A grade and B grade trim/larf buds. Staged harvesting made the whole experience so much better due to easier management of trimming, drying and curing in batches - with a little added quality ofcourse. Dry weight only includes grade A/B buds, and excludes larf. There were 2 plants grown in this crop under the one light which brings the gram/watt/plant above 1.0 for this crop. I found the right tools make a huge difference alongside harvesting in stages (e.g. tops first then 10 days later the lower layers). I suffered the same last year with the trimming but it's been a very different experience with this crop. I've linked the two tools I use. Also think the strain itself makes a difference based on its flower structures. I wet trim all the fan leaves immediately then after 1-2 days of starting the drying process (buds hung) I do the trimming and manicuring over 1-2 days. Music always helps :) https://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-HGPP400C-Precision-Curved-Pruner/dp/B005449D3W (just great for initial trim) https://www.amazon.com/Chikamasa-Stainless-Scissors-Fluorine-Resin-resistant/dp/B00JSYB9I6 (a must have for final manicure) This has been one of the more fun and exciting learning experiences in my life. Awesome people around with lots of great advice which help when you're struggling at a point. Thank you to all those who followed along, kept up the banter and shared their experiences. The best we can do is share our experiences ... what you do with it all depends on you.

Grow Questions

HazeyBobbystarted grow question 4 years ago
First time using Coco (Canna Prof), since seedlings the leaves are deformed and exhibit over-watering symptoms. In 3.5L pots with white healthy roots showing from below. Water (with nutrients) every 2-3 days. Could someone suggest where my problem focus should be?

hey there Hazey bobby, you're right about the symptoms but i can tell you already know it's not that simple... dont worry , very simple to fix. So in coco you need nutrients, micro nutrients, and because the medium is sterile, you need something to break down the nutrients and micro for the plant which normally in soil would be done by bacterial life. So you need what's called a chelation agent, for example : enzymes, humic acid, beneficial bacteria, or even diluted H202 0.3% max. add that to every watering and you'll see your plant perk up almost instantly. Hope this helps ! ๐Ÿš€

https://www.growweedeasy.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/cannabis-plant-problem-flowchart.jpg drooping leaves can have alot of causes. because you know your actions just floow the flowchart to get the answer. and btw... coco friendly nutrients contain enzymes to break down the nutrients for the plant dont worry On the same website is a very good tutorial for groiwng in coco coir... one think as first.. coc should never run dry...greetings and happy growing

HazeyBobby
@Mrs_Larimar, thanks heaps for the feedback. I did read Canna Coco Pro comes pre-buffered and the Canna Coco (A&B) nutrients should work well. And I did add enzymes in the last feed. I'm going through the flowchart - it's a great website for info.

Hell yes. Great pull and stellar buds man. Fantastic work๐Ÿ‘Œ. I'll be looking into those trimmers. I don't mind mine, but they get gummed up so easily and the spring keeps binding๐Ÿ˜•. Thanks for the links fella. Cheers. And again, congrats๐Ÿ˜‰

@HazeyBobby, Haha. Surplus is never a bad thing๐Ÿ˜‰. You do oil concentrates at all (solvent free)? I wasn't an oil guy and didn't think it would do good by me and/or be a waste of product...but Holy crap, I'm on board now. Harvested and milled enough for 1.25 liters ๐Ÿ˜…. Hahaha. Give her a shot for poops and giggles!? And I really feel I see your project in my head, but I'm definitely going to need you to show us, hahaha. It sounds very interesting. This will kinda look like tomatoes growing on a vertical trellis (net) w/ the light pointing from the side not from the top? Regardless! Sounds cool man. Best of luck soaking those new seeds!!!!๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜€ Edit: I'm dumb. I see you already said you have 2 ounce for concentrates! Nvm!!

@JinksyGrows, next is a creative grow... an experiment to LST a vertical ScrOG with my light placed on the side horizontally. Will most likely grow OG Kush ... I'm holding myself back from another Strawberry Lemonade as it's yielded so much and I'll have a problem with overstock... I'm already good for a couple of years with this crop's harvest :)

@JinksyGrows, yeah very cool to be harvesting at the same time! the Strawberry Lemonade plant (the other one in my tent) has now sprawled over and is looking like a monster ... pity harvesting is such a one-off event :) by the way just to share - I used these Japanese scissors for manicuring and they made a world of difference to the experience :) https://www.amazon.com/Chikamasa-Stainless-Scissors-Fluorine-Resin-resistant/dp/B00JSYB9I6

@MrRaid, thanks heaps! just chopped her canopy layer off and wow! the smell during trimming!!! whilst I was disappointed with the size of buds I really won't be complaining about the yield :) And to your point... it may be a little too big for that space and light. Next grow I'm going to try mainlining and do a full lollipop.

Are you using nutrients every time you water? It looks like you may be possibly underfeeding them. You should use Cannas feeding chart. While it's hard to over water using coco coir it does happen especially if they are started in too large of a pot. While the top of the pot seems dry the bottom of the pot stays too wet until you have enough roots to fill the pot. If you've been using "plain water" on them with no nutrients you may have disrupted the cal/mag balance of the coco coir and it's stealing cal/mag out of your nutrient feedings. You are dealing with large day night temperature swings this could cause some nutrient absorption issues. Maintaining higher humidity levels during the daytime in the 55% + range could help keep her stoma open to absorb more Co2 which is needed for photosythesis.
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobby
@Philindicus, OK - understood. I'm was adding half dosage of the BAC CalMag but will stop it from today and observe the plants for coming week. Great info - thank you! I have added more photos in latest week from yesterday after topping.
Philindicus
Philindicus
@HazeyBobby, It's hard to tell in your photos. If the lowest leaves that are turning yellow have reddish stems it's usually a sign of lack of nitrogen. Using too much Calcium and magnesium can cause issues locking out potassium absorption. Excesses of all three can actually all lockout each other. So too much calcium will lockout magnesium and potassium. Too much magnesium will lockout calcium and potassium. Too much potassium will lock out calcium and magnesium. Typically 4 parts potassium to 2 parts calcium to 1 part magnesium needs to be used to keep some type of balance between them. Canna Coco nutrients should already have extra calcium and magnesium in it. It's possible your other cal/mag product may be causing issues from what I can find on the internet bac cal/mag seems to have more magnesium than calcium. If that's the case you have excess magnesium locking out calcium and potassium. Some times it's not a good idea to mix different brands of nutrients. If you shoot canna a message they will probably repeat everything I've just mentioned.
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobby
@Philindicus, I use nutrients every time I water and have started daily fertigation. I have used the Canna coco feeding chart as a template with 'Light Feeding' option - found the EC levels high at 1.8-2 so I reduced my numbers. I will be increasing the strength this coming week as per my schedule. I'm also about to hopefully fix my temp & humidity issues. And yes, the pot was too big for the seedling - good lesson learnt. Thanks heaps for the feedback and advise, much appreciated.

@Philindicus, thanks for the info - always good! I'm going to harvest the tops first then allow the lower sites to ripen over another week as needed. Will start to read some info on CBD strains and harvesting - I don't have any experience. And hoping to make oil out of this harvest :)

Looks great bro
HazeyBobby

@MrRaid, thanks! I'm slightly disappointed with the bud size development and hopefully the change in nutrients line from Canna to GHE will address that in future grows. I think the plants got too much nitrogen whilst flowering as Canna uses the same mix (A&B) throughout a grow.

@CRiSPrGrow, thanks heaps for the note. I just posted a question on my Straw.Lem. plant which is in the same crop/grow space as I'm very worried about the bud development for this stage of flowering. Your feedback would be valuable and I will look to increase the cal/mag from the next feed. ๐Ÿ™
