02/16/2020: I'm surprised how thick the stalk of the Star Pupil and Five Star are getting and the "FS" is taking off!
- watered the "SP" and "FS" with ~1gal of filtered water each, PH 6.5
- adjusted the LST on both plants. Broke a branch on the Star Pupil, hopefully the fix will work.
02/17/2020: some of the leaves are clawing heavily, not sure what's causing it.
- Topped a 2nd time the Star Pupil and moved the light higher to make her stretch a bit.
02/18/2020: Finally got my new lights (2x ChilLED Logic puck V3 (Growmau5) running on a 320W Meanwell driver, buying the 3rd puck in a week)
- built and installed them new lights!
- moved the tent so I can open all 3 sides (will make working around the ScrOG a lot easier)
- LST'd the Star Pupil some more
- Topped the "LBF"
02/21/2020: the Star Pupil still doesn't look great and it doesn't look like she's growing much anymore.
- watered both "SP" and "FS" with tap water (trying to get some sort of calcium input), PH 6.6, 1gal each, Fox Farm Big Bloom 15mL/gal
02/22/2020: talked to someone else growing that strain (and other Mass Medical Strains) and she's having the same problem on one of the plants. The breeder says it's one of the weird mutation of the strain.
growing 5 star and it has turned purple with great bud formation in week 7 of flower - takes 8 weeks - also did star pupil but 5 star was the best all round and has that Pack-a-stand along with afghan and Thai _ going to get a very high yield for thisstrain
looks like "n" issues because of the leaves just flush and let plant get very dry before feeding - don't get me wrong great looking plants - these two strains can be difficult
@Azgrows,
have gotten good yields with a 30day veg not counting germination and seedling stages ( I start veg time when there are 3 "true" sets of leaves) I am on week 8 - at the end 60day flower - will be harvesting in 2 days There flowwer times are right on. Here are a few that I have: 5 Star - Star Pupil -Panama Goo -Fisheye OG -Acapulco Gold (a pure sativa heirloom/landrance) and GOJI Pupil
with a 30day flower = 3 foot plant = 1/2 / to 1 lb harvest
@airplane, for sure and thanks brotha!
They're in FF Happy Frog soil (with ~30% perlite), I only started feeding her some FF Big Bloom (barely any N) and some CalMag at 5 weeks. the recent clawing is due to feeding her some of FF's Grow Big once. As for watering I've been letting them getting very dry (3-5 days). I've been reading up Mass Medical Strains' tips and listening to his podcasts, very informative.
They're showing (I think) potassium deficiency but I'm not sure what to feed her without adding too much nitrogen (that's why I tried giving them some FF GrowBig)
Probably gonna veg them a full 8 weeks before flipping to flowering, it's gonna be hard to wait!
I noticed that you didn't get the purple pheno of the Star Pupil. How big were the buds? Large fat kolas or just clusters of bud at roughly a foot or less intervals?
If you can remember. I'm currently growing that strain right now and I've got two purple Phenos and two non purple phenos
watch the "N" with these plants - don't hardly give them much at all and also you can let them get very dry between feeding/watering - mean letting them go for 3-4 days no water
