Let's start my first diary here! I want to track all the details because I think It will be very helpful. In the past, I've committed some failures due to not keeping track of the feeds and so many times improvising them. I think this is my 6th indoor growth and I hope this time goes well and for sure I'll continue learning!
On the first days, the plants were placed near a window, because the ones in the tent have not finished yet. But due to bad weather these past days, I had to find out a place inside the tent. Then I placed the little plants at the floor level in the tent, but again the light was not enough. So I came up with an idea to lift them up and now it's ok!
Because of this weird beginning, the plants have stretched more than usual and have delayed growth a bit. Hope this not became a problem when transplanting them! 🤞

· Seeds germinated very fast, in a day they were all out but #5, which took half a day more.

💧150 ml per plant
🍼 PH 6 - EC 0.05
· The small plastic pots (0.7 l) were filled with BioBizz Light-Mix and some Micorhizal spores and Rhizobacterias (Cellmax Product X)
- - - - - - DAY 4 - - - - - -
· Because of sharing the space with almost finished plants, the air humidity is lower than recommended 😞
· I've put some wet expanded clay in the bottom of the tray to keep the moisture in this zone.
I'm worried about some brown spots and dying tips. It seems that the soil is a little overfertilized but not sure if this is the only issue or maybe the plants are getting stressed again because of too much light. Just in case, I decreased the light hours by 2. What do you think?
Bio-Bizz strikes again
Your light is fine, no signs of bleaching or burning.
The spots are calcium from either a lockout OR PH issues.
The faded leaves at the bottom of the plant appear to be nitrogen def that may or may not still be present.
I ran Bio-Bizz as 5ml/gal grow and 10-15ml/gal bloom with occasional adds for deficiencies, yeah bio-bizz its a trip
I know a couple of weeks ago you had a bit of deficiency going on.
Now it kind of looks like you have that under control but is that a heat issue I see now?
New lights? Heat test?
Tested runoff PH?
Flush?
A curious world wants to know 😉
@@vapedboy,
Seems to me they mature fast during flush.
Just dont cut any corners and you will love it. Coco is all about prep work.
Youtube is your friend 😉
Good luck
@rhodes68,
I was thinking about trying coco so your words just convinced me about give it a try in the near future. For the next crop, I already have BioBizz All-Mix soil, but for sure I'll go with it later. I think I'll take a look at that book before I start growing with coco!
About the current plants I have, it's so curious that this strain, according to its description, may be ready for harvest 7½ weeks from germination... mines are now in the 10th week and I think it will take 2 more weeks to think about harvesting. So because of that, I'm thinking of feeding them only with water in the next weeks.
Thank you again for your comments, really appreciate your help!
@@@vapedboy,
The pat reply would be to do a PHed flush of the plant next watering followed by a feeding the next time.
Since you are in week ten that should not really affect the plant too much long as the pot is light to begin.
Organics do not usually require a flush but when you do you want at least 20% runoff.
Next feed just watch the dosing and that is the usual process.
I swear if it not heat its nuet burn on those leaves. You have to watch Cal-Mag, it can burn your leaves which is why I have learned to use low doses and foliar feeds to keep that a non-issue. I see no cal or mag deficiency at present so might even want to put it away for a while, your call.
What to do next time is a bit more of an issue depending on you. I had a lot of issues with organic soil indoors much as you have so I fixed it.
I went to coco and Drain to Waste. Simplicity in growing
Yeah I have to tend them every morning, but only once a day, and the yields have been remarkably improved.
Dr. MJ Coco has a book on Amazon or the same info on his web site for free, it is what I grow by with only minor changes to adapt it to our situation.
If you stay in soil its a LOT more complicated. Life is complicated enough as it is.... 😳
Follow directions to a tee ( and I mean to the point) and coco will make you look like a genius.
Hi buddy!
Regarding the problem of the leaves, I personally believe that it can be due to a high temperature (very close light) and/or an excess of watering.
I think @rhodes68 is helping you and giving good advice. 😉
Don't worry about failures, the important thing is to find them and learn from them.
Sweet smokes,

@BlogMArley, gracias por tu comentario! Creo que el problema ha sido el exceso de riego que ha provocado que las raices no puedan coger los nutrientes, pero tampoco estoy muy seguro. Para el proximo cultivo tambien intentaré ir poco a poco con los fertilizantes para evitar excesos, a ver si la proxima es la buena 🤞
Congratulations on the new baby. She looks good at first. Choose a good variety. For a treat. Keep doing what you are doing and ask the growing ganja gods to protect your women until the growth is over.
