This week is off to a slow start but I am hopeful with the color of the strongest lady in the room. We still have one more seed to sprout above the soil. I do not have high hopes for this lady for she never really developed a good sized taproot in the wet paper towel.
It's the end of veg week 1! They are looking pretty great. I was worried about the biggest gal at first because she is showing a little green tips, which usually points to a deficiency but she was planted in high quality soil and it's only been a week. Nevertheless it was time for their first feeding anyways so they got a dose of Fox Farms Big Bloom and Grow Big today in their watering. Hoping with all the new nutrients we should see some explosive growth this week!
Side note: After looking up the green tips, apparently, skunk #1 strains and strains crossed with it have this in their genes. AAAAAANd this Pineapple Express is crossed with Skunk #1 and Pineapple Chunk. Let's hope that's all.
Week two of veg has officially ended! Lady #1 is looking great and is working on pushing the 3rd set of leaves out. A little worried about Lady #2, seeing those yellow spots worries me but I cannot figure out whats causing it. pH of the run off is 6.48, she how gotten a feeding twice a week for the past week and a half, and the light is higher from her than the other lady. Anyone got any ideas? All help is appreciated with this being my first real grow! Thanks for your support!
Well folks, it's the end of week 3 of the vegetative cycle. At this point I have battle nutrient burn, learned what severe cal-mag deficiency looks like and how to treat it, and started Low Stress Training one of my two girls. All in all been a very exciting couple of days here in the tent but we are learning with every step forward and backwards! First grows are so much fun 😅😂
They are on the older leaves and they keep getting that faded yellowing starting from the tips. The pH of the run off is 6.43 and they havent been fed a round of nutrients in a week! I thought it was a cal/mag def but they haven't bounced back after a dose. Help please!
you got it right, i mean your PH is good, and it looks like a Magnesium Deficiency,
Please note: Once a magneisum deficiency is cleared up, the problem (yellowing lower leaves) will stop spreading , usually within a few days. Please note that leaves which have been damaged by a magnesium deficiency will probably not recover or turn green, so you want to pay attention to other growth for signs of recovery.
i say since you done everthing right , just Wait and see how it will get in couple of days,the New growth should look normal :D
i hope this helps you bro
So today marks the end of week 4 of the veg cycle. Both ladies have bounced back from their deficiencies but after talking to my local gardening shop they moved me over to the Oregon's Only brand of nutrients. So I am going to run a herculean harvest flush today to get rid of the old fox farms nutes and move onto the Oregon's Only Line. Can't wait to see what effect these organic nutes have!!!
We will be in week 2 of flower tomorrow! So stoked on how these ladies are doing. Lowered the lights a little and am now just waiting and watering at this point. If all goes to plan we should have some smokable bud for 4/20
Changed my setup this week with the addition of two NEW gorilla lite line tents. Besides the new changes to the environment, no new changes in the plants, just rolling through flower right now. Looking back on it I probably called flower a little early, but hey, it's my first grow.
Overall a great plant to grow. Some hardships through the beginning with the not so great nutes. Definitely worth a grow. The only thing is the length that this plant took was just absolutely crazy! For an autoflower I was expecting harvest 2-3 weeks ago. From seed to harvest it took 110 days.
