Going OK. Seeing slight yellowing in lowest leaves which is strange because it's in All-Mix. Starting to wonder if in fact it's light soil. Anyway just upped the grow feed. It's leaves have stayed very small so far.

Very slight sign of sharp leaves which I'm taking to be from the light rather than heat so I've moved the light slightly further away and will allow it to grow into it. Seems to have quite small leaves. I don't know if that's again due to the light or possibly a humidity issue. I have very little way of controlling humidity at the moment and as it gets colder out there's less moisture in the air. Plant looks fairly healthy though. Would like to see it branch out a bit more this coming week. Started a little bit of lst. Very slight purple on stems which is very early. I'm dubious of the soil I've got. Bought on eBay as weight instead of full bag but I'm not sure it's as hot as it's supposed to be.

Think I may have set this plant back a bit with over watering. Not sure. But it's stayed pretty short and a lot of its leaves are really small. It looks to have stopped stretching now too, or didn't stretch much in the first place. Humidity has been up and down. Winter air means sometimes it's dropped as low as 28% RH which most likely also hindered growth. I'm also seeing a lot of purpling on its stems which would indicate early deficiency but I'm not sure it's from lack of feed. Perhaps mag has been blocked out a bit by cold wet medium. I've decreased it's watering now so we'll see how it takes off in the next week.

Plant is doing alright. Doesn't seem to be showing any signs of over feeding despite taking full bloom nutes very early on. Will add some PK next water because i see a very slight bit of lighter green in the leaves. Started putting out a few trichs. Environment has been pretty spot on this week which is good. I don't have much humidity control but have managed to keep it up between 50-60%.

Had some strange markings on the leaves this week as seen in photos. Not 100% what they are. It's not nute burn because the majority of the leaves are fine, but a number of them have started showing this burn. Looks like a contact burn but nothing has been close to the light. The leaf is just sort of wilting at the tip and on a few leaves showing burn along the side. Thought it could be K def so gave a slight PK boost. Bud sites have started forming a little bit this week. Not sure they're going to be the biggest nugs but they look to be quite dense and frosty. Looking for quality this round.

Damn this plant man. Worth me doing a side by side with the Double Grape to show just how much can differ. I don't know what's with it but the buds on this one just never got big. I don't think it's because the strain is supposed to be a low yielder either. I reckon something off with its ph or something. It hasn't shown all that much deficiency but always stayed small. Buds small Leaves soft and thin Burn marks on a few leaves Healthy leaves dropping Still has some frost and smells nice. Just going to be a small smoke off this one but I might run it again next. Had some mostly healthy leaves just drop without much sign of anything wrong.

Big ph problems due to bad ph pen made sure sshe's stayed small. Just on plain water now. Buds never swelled much bigger. Lesson learnt: make sure your equipment works and if you see deficiencies double check ph first. Despite the buds being small they're quite compact and have some frost on so at least gives an opportunity to sample the strain.

Raggedy little plant. Probably not much worth the time but thought I'd let it go. Buds are tiny but it does stink and has a bit of frost. Just a victim of completely whack ph. Probably get about 14g off it if that.

Will run this strain again. This one was a disaster.

@ForestGreen,that's it man u know were I am if u need any help or anything just ask as u say onwards an upwards
ForestGreen
ForestGreencommented7 years ago
@biggreens420, Thanks man. Shame because it's my first run of Mephisto but I just fucked up badly with the PH being completely off and didn't realise until too late. Got three more ladies on the way so it's always onwards and upwards as we learn.

I am growing same strain Auto it’s 12” tale week 4 of veg PH makes a higher difference
ForestGreen
ForestGreencommented7 years ago
@KPW17, Yeah that's probably as tall as this one go . Staying short is fine but the buds just never really grew.

Following because imma start this one up soon for a side plant :) does it take well to being in a small pot?
ForestGreen
ForestGreencommented7 years ago
@Cannabisqueen, sounds good. Would have enjoyed letting it grow naturally but they always tend to chunk out anyway.
Cannabisqueen
Cannabisqueencommented7 years ago
@ForestGreen, I'll be training mine so I'll be in your lane of bushy hopefully lol
ForestGreen
ForestGreencommented7 years ago
@Cannabisqueen, Yeah seems fine to me. This one remained small. I guess if I hadn't trained it it would be a bit over a foot tall.

Probably it’s light bleaching, had the same problem, try to increase the distance lamp- plant (my 2 cents)

TheApprenticecommented7 years ago
@ForestGreen,Well, I hope you’ll solve this issue asap, curious to undestand the cause!
ForestGreen
ForestGreencommented7 years ago
@TheApprentice, Thanks for your input. I know it's not light bleaching because I've seen that a lot before too. I've got a low space. This is odd though and that was a good suggestio .
