OK here we are again, going to run this grow like I did my last one with some tweaking.  My last grow I wanted it to be stupid simple add nutes into the soil and partway through its life around flowering. It worked out pretty well. This time I'm going to keep the same principle in that I am using Gaia Green Organic fertilizers added at the beginning of the grow with a top up at the start of flower + some added soil amendments in it water. These changes have been made 1)Bigger Pots - 1.7gal 'plastic' to 3gal 'fabric root pouch' 2)Less Plants - 4 plants down to 3 plants 3)additional supplements - CaMg, BSM, KM, 4)a bit more nutrients - extra starting and top up 5)different seeds - Dinafem Og Kush CBD Auto vs FastBuds BlackBerry Auto 6)more lights + extras 1.The pots are a fabric based pots that are wider compared to the plastic pots from the previous grow that were more vertical. The volume also changed can hold a hefty 3 gallons of medium vs the 1.7 gallons from the previous. Another advantage is the natural air pruning that happens with this sort of air pot. Will need to water a bit more because of evaporation but also might help keep the tents humidity up.  2..The number of plant selected was dictated because of the wider pots. If tent was bigger I'd still do 4 plants. 3...The extra supplements will be calcium and magnesium, kelp meal and black strap molasses. Make my own Ca supp using 10% acetic acid and calcium carbonate, then ill add epsom salts in water when needed with the powdered kelp meal. The black strap molasses will be to feed to microbiom of the soil and to provide some small micro nutrients like b vitamins. and yes it is unsulfured. 4....The extra nutrients are the same Gaia Green Organics, I'm using a bit more in the pots then previous grows. keeping the same amount of perlite, worm castings and bloom nutes when they are added. same medium of pro-mix organic veg. 5.....The plant selection was between more blackberry or some og kush cbd, my friends really liked the og last time I grew it and I have a bunch of blackberry buds right now so gong for a new strain. It would have been more conclusive if I grew more blackberry, this way I could tell if the additional extras I'm doing in this grow would've made a big difference. But with the pot sizes and type changing I figured I'd use up some older seeds I have on hand and bring back a classic. I grew the other OG Kush CBD plants in 3gal buckets outdoors and can ruffly remember the yields off of them, so I'm setting my goal to get about 1.5 - 2 times more then that. Being old seeds they took longer to pop but 100% germination rate. Had a full day and a half before they sank and another two days before any bit of the seed tail started to pop its shell. placed them in a dish with moist paper towel and a lid. let them grow a day on top of fridge then planted. 6)......The lights have been extended by two more strips. I now have an array with 7 X Sunblaster LED 18" 18w @6500k w/ 1950 lumen output. This will bring my wattage up from 90w to 126w. these extra strips will help me take care of the darker front and back that the last grow had. Also purchased a little Thermo-Hygrometer the Mondi Mini. no PH tester yet but not doing hydro so meh. maybe next grow maybe not. Plant #1 Is Back Left Plant #2 Is Back Right Plant#3 Is Front Centre

m0usestarted grow question 5 years ago
Is there a massive difference in colour temperature/kelvin of LED's if the lumens, PAR, watts, intensity and every other aspect you can think of is the same but its temp/kelvin is lower? I use a 6500k LEDs, may mix in or switch to 3000K for better flowers if its proven to work.

Hey @m0use! I recommend at least 3500K-4000K for flowering. You will notice a big big difference, you will start feeling the difference when they start stretching up. And finally, as they will be more warm, you will notice on the size on the buds on next weeks! You can still use your 6500K LEDS while combining with 3000K-2500K LEDs. You will improve your spectrum.

@Dinafem_Mark The seed tin I got these in says "OG Kush CBD" its the black version not the white ones, it does not mention 'auto' anywhere on it, yet the vendor I ordered it from said it was an auto, The plants I grew from it a few years back all seemed to be autos, I started them outdoors and they all popped up and flowered in a short period of time. They did not behave like Photos I grew in resent years. Is the white tin for autos a new thing? or maybe I was sent the correct seeds in a wrong tin from the dealer? Just trying to figure out if I am growing Auto or a Photo that I might have tricked into early flower by mistake the first time round. Was not directly ordered from Dinafem, lesson learned. 😅

Also, does anyone know if there is a FAQ section explaining what the icons mean at the top of the dairy next to my user name? or when the level up happens from newbie to apprentice to other levels? Could not find anything in the FAQ, Mainly don't know what the people icon right beside my user name is, it looks like the "growers" icon on the side of the webpage. but I thought the "eye" was the amount of people who have viewed this page. and the "leaf" for the amount of people who like this grow as well as the "chat bubble" for number of comments??

@DinafemSeeds, The first time I grew them it was my first ever grow, didn't know of this webpage and never logged much details. The place I purchased them from said they where auto, it was online from niagara seed bank, granted they sell both versions of OG Kush CBD - auto and photo, so I feel it might have been a mix up. I did not get the feeling anything fishy was happening, If I remember correctly I had the lights on the same schedule as my other seeds "peppers and tomatoes" for only 8-10 hrs a day. I can see how I would then think it was an auto like I ordered as its flowering started early plus I didn't know much of photo strains at that point. I'm going to change the diaries seeds to reflect this is no longer an auto strain. Will need to up the feeding schedule a bit and determine a time to switch the lights to trigger a flowering period for them. Thanks again for the input!

@m0use, Typically our "Autos" do come in a white tin whereas our "Photoperiod" strains are in our traditional black tins 👍 Regardless the tin should have "Auto" to identify the strain 🙏 Sounds like it's photoperiod mate 🤔 Are they acting like an "Auto"?(e.g. are the flowe ring under 18/6) All the best ✌️ Mark..

https://leafist.com/news/growing/the-light-spectrum-matters-when-growing-cannabis found this that is a nice little read. goes a bit into the science of it. but overall simple and palatable.

There is only one caution I would issue mate 👍 Defoliation work is fantastic but be cautious this far into bloom as it could cause issues with possible "hermaphrodites" 👍 Things do look great with no issue's I can see 👌 Keep the diary update coming 🙏 All the best ✌️ Mark..

@DinafemSeeds, Thanks Mark for the tips! I read that nanners could happen :( The other stuff I was reading said the last week you'd want to defoliate in is its 5th week of flower. As a high risk option for "potentially" increasing bud production. I'm in need of some serious tools before I'll get growing proper. I feel I've botch this one as I'm lacking PH testing in water/soil. the original idea of defoliation for this grow was sure why not, as long as it does not die. Next indoor grow will be next level if I get my supplies in hand/shit together. Still got some outdoor grows to practice with. Cheers

What up bro. Nice and solid grow. I need to know. . . U used 7x 18w cool white led tubes ( roughly 130w -6500k ) Throught the entire grow? Veg cycle and flower cycle? What sort of distance did u keep the light at? Do u maybe a some pics of the setup? I have a 150w cool white led at the moment and was thinking of using it aswell for flowering as i dont have a warm white light currently. I know its not the right thing to use for flowering. Just tryna make do with what i have currently. But if u pulled this kind of harvest from running the cool white throughout the grow. I would be really happy. Also do they get any direct suntime? Or do they just stay in the grow box?

Hey, @AfternoonBlazer, If you look into the other weeks on this grow or my other grows you can find most of what you are looking for. but for easy reference see the answers below. yes I used 7 X 18w 6500K Sunblaster LED's at 1950 lumen's daisy chained together on a side-by-side array. look at grow question in this dairy to see its spectrum. yes from seed to harvest throughout its entire life cycle, only these light. entire grow, veg + flower. I Kept the light around 9-12 inches from the plant. sometimes the top tips got closer but not by a lot. No pics of previous setup, it was a Styrofoam slabs glued and painted into a box. flip though some of my other dairies before this one to see other photos of it to get an idea of its shape. it was approx 1.5' x 1' x 5' - L x W x H it totalled 5m squared ish. not big at all. best for autos or one photoperiod plant. you should be fine with white LED's for your first few grows, its what i did as well. If your just starting out upgrade parts slowly and see what works for you, My lights output have a good spectrum and lumen rating for generalized growing. You should check if yours are in the same ball park. The LED light I used are designed for growing plants vs LED's designed for ambient lighting in a room. I kept the lights around 9 inches from the plant, they don't burn at that height. can go as low as 4-6" but not recommended. No outside sunlight for any period of time. just in the grow box from seed to harvest. Best of luck on your grow. Lots of things can happen, use your grow questions and research your ideas, read through the peoples opinions who disagree and agree to get a full viewpoint of the situation as its easy to become clouded or bias of your own ideas. This helps you determine why this may or may not work for yourself. failures are a stepping stone when learned from, don't fear/focus on them :)
