Watered every other day with 100ml of ph'ed water.
Streched out a little bit, i was concerned she might crush herself so i lowered the leds.
20l airpots
Day 6
I watered with 250ml of ph water.
She liked that. I will propably keep adding 50-100 ml per watering until i do a full watering of the pot.
Hello growers.
The plant looks healthy and happy.
Day 9
I lowered the leds to 80cm from the plant
Day 10
Watered with 0,5l of ph'ed water. A bit much but no harm done, i will just let her dry before i water again.
See ya next week.
Hello to all growers.
Day 18
First watering untill runoff today.
Oh boy, these 20L pots are sure tricky to manage. It took 3L of of water to have a 10-20% Run off.
I just hope i did not suffocate her roots. We will see.
Day 20
It turns out i was right about watering till runoff. The growth rate exploded.
Still too short for low stress training . Maybe next week.
Other than that she absorbes the nutes nicely and keeps on growing.
Hello farmers.
This week we had our first preflowers.
I performed the first lst of the grow to the plant.
3L of water per watering with feeding in every watering.
It takes a while to dry up. That's what you get when you germinate in the final medium (20l airpots). But other than that things run smoothly.
Its a healthy and strong plant.
Next week i will try raising the npk nuts.
Thanks for visiting.
See ya next week.
Hello to everyone.
The plant keeps growing. The structure is bushy like with a lot thin stems but with an even canopy after the last lst.
3.5L of water with feeding in every watering. I aim to have a 10% runoff. (This 20L airpot takes a while before drying out). It takes 6-7 days between waterings. I know it is a lot of time but the plant does not seem to have any problems.
I raised 0.5ml of every nutrient i give (final feeding 1.5 biogrow, 1.5 bioheaven)
Preflowers are popping here and there, mostly on the apical stem.
The plan is to keep it in veg till week 8 and then jump right in flower mode.
So that all folks.
Thanks for visiting.
Happy growing.
Greetings to all growers
This week the plant was thirsty.
I watered twice with 4L of water.
Feeding with every watering. I raised the nutes to 2ml biogrow, 2ml bioheaven.
The doses will remain like this for a couple of weeks untill the end of veg mode.
This week i did not need to do any training as the plant's structure is really bushy. The canopy is pretty much rounded with shoots around the same height from the lst i did last week.
So, thanks for visiting boys and girls. See ya later.
Hello growers.
This week, as with every other plant in the tent, i think i've hit the sweet spot.
The growth has been explosive.
The plant drinks a lot of water and the nutrients seem to be in balance.
4l of water every 4 days with feeding in every watering.
No lst this week. The structure of the canopy is pretty even so i didn't want to bother for a couple of shoots that are just a few cm above the others.
But i did some minor defoliation. Nothing fancy, just 5 fan leaves in the bottom that were not getting any light.
The humidity has started to rise so i don't want to risk any mold.
That's all for this week.
Next week will be the last of vegetation.
Thanks for visiting.
Have a happy grow.
Hello growers.
This was the last week of vegetation.
As i right these lines the plant receives 12 hours of lignt daily.
So let's recap this week's highlights.
At the begining of the week i did some very lignt defoliation at the bottom of the structure.(6-8 fan leaves). I am starting to take mesures against the posisibility of mold.
The watering-feeding schedule was the same as earlier( 4L of water, 2ml biogrow, 2ml bioheaven every 4 days with feeding in every watering.
Did a little bit of lst to a couple of shoots.
The canopy is pretty even but some of the stems look a little bit thin. I hope this won't be an issue during buding.
So that's all folks.
See ya next week for the begining of the flower circle.
Happy grows.
Hello growers.
We had our first flowering week.
First of all the strech is quite something with this plant.
It was the shortest plant by far in the growroom, but now it has almost catched up with the others.
However the internodal distance of the stems is not long. That means that it is going to have buds from top to bottom.
I really like the appearance of this plant.
It is bushy with short pointy leaves and it seems to be very healthy.
I introduced small amount of bloom nutrients and it seems that it likes them a lot.
Since the flip, it is taking a bit longer between waterings (5days) but i think it is normal as tne growroom runs in lower temperatures. Usually as we progress in bloom cycle the plant will find its rythm and establish a much faster drinking rate.
I am happy with the canopy. There are some small differences in stem heights, but nothing to extreme, so for now no action will be taken.
Thanks for visiting.
happy growing.
Greetings growers.
We are in full bloom mode with our plant.
The stems are filling fast with budding.
You could say that the strech is not really big, but the stems are filling with uniformity.
The only problem is that the other plant in the tent are taller so i have to find a way to raise tha pot so the plant receives the same light intensity with the others.
The plant gets 4L of water per 4-5 days with feeding in every watering.
I increase the biobloom per 0.5 in every watering.
I dont think the plant will need any more training at this point but you never know.
That's it for now.
Thanks for visiting.
Enjoy growing.
Hello growers
The flower strech is done in this plant.
Now it seems that it focuses on filling up the stems with budding.
I already like the smell.
It has a weird cherry like trace.
The canopy has lost the uniformity and now i have 3 stems at the same level and all the others are below.
I saw a couple of signs of nutrient burn so i changed the doses a bit.
That is all folks.
Happy growing
Hello growers.
I hope everyone is safe and well.
Our little plant keeps puting on some weight.
I had some minor nute burn so i had to cut down the biogrow.
I will have to find a way to support the stems as we progress because they already are tilting a lot from the weight.
The smell is getting stronger everyday.
As i mentioned last week it has some cherry and gum tree notes.
So that is all.
Thanks for visiting.
Take care of yourself.
Hellow growers.
The plant is doing good.
A lot of the pistils are turning orange and a can not see any new ones.
It is almost ready for flush.
Very nice aroma so far.
I am a little dissapointed from the bud structure. Only 3 big bud stems and many popcorn shoots.
But that is on me. I could have done a better training job.
Im planning to increase the nutes this week as it may be its last feedings.
Hello growers.
This plant had its last feeding this week.
So now i will flush for 7 days and then it is chop time.
I really like the smell with its fruity notes.
I am not sure about the yield because i already can see that i have a lot of popcorn.
So next week's report should come right before harvest.
Hello growers
This week i started flushing the plant.
I could have started earlier but i wanted as big of a yield as i t could give me.
7 days of plain ph water and then it is chop time.
So next week it will be the harvest entry.
See yanext weekand thanks for visiting.
First photoperiod grow.
Photo buds are more sticky and aromatic than in my auto grows.
The effect is also a bit stronger.
The traits of BCN Critical XXL are:
Aroma : Spicy, Red fruit, Lemongrass
Taste: Orange, Red fruit, Spice.
High: Grounded, Relaxed, Heavy.
Hello growers.
A little dissapointed from the yield. This is my worst harvest so far.
My lights proved a little to small for photoperiods.
They were great for autoflowers with a 20/4 light schedule but for photoperiods during bloom, 12 hours of light per day were not enough.
Also this was my first organic grow so i guess i lost some weight from that too.
Anyway, mistakes make us wiser.
Thanks for visiting.
Happy grows everyone.
As someone who is about to start their first grow using a PAR450, I was hoping I could bother you to elaborate on the light issues... sorry to be a pest, just looking to see what I'm getting myself into... Also, what size is your tent? 4x4x72?
@Smokin_Joe, hey friend.
So, about vipaspectra lights. I have been using them for over 2 years now. I was growing autoflowers and my yields were pretty good with an average of 150gr per plant. The light schedule i have been using is 20h of lignt and 4h of darkness.
This year i decided to go for photoperiods.
So the bacic science behind light and growing is this: Every plant needs a specific amount of photons (lets say light molecules) per day in order to grow and develop in its full capabilities. This is the result of light intensity and duration per day.
With a 20/4 schedule, viparspectra lights can meet the photon threshold because the plant is showered by light for 20 hours.
But when you grow photoperiod strains, in order to make the plants bloom you have to cut that down to 12 hours of light per day. As it turns out 12 hours of viparspectra light is not enough for a plant to maximize its yield capabilities.
So, to sum up, if you are going to grow autos, you are good. If you are going for photoperiods, try to keep only one plant per light.
Also my tent is 1.5m×1.5m×2.2m
I hope this is usefull.
Happy growing.
