Good day , hope everyone had a good week👊
Things are going pretty well this week, I think I have my watering issues figured
out. I'm thinking that I was underwatering and overfeeding a bit(learning all the time).
L.B.#3 drinks approx. 1-1.5L daily
L.B.#4 drinks approx. 2-3L daily
E.M.#2 drinks approx. 1L daily
C.C.#1 drinks approx. 1.5-2L daily
Plants seem to be Happy😃 just feeding them a little big bud(organic) and sensi cal mag and a little bit of molasses.Keeping it to a minimum.
Thanks again and Grow Big💪
Hey everybody, just wondering about the reasoning behind putting your plant into darkness
before the harvest? Does this do something to the trichomes or the THC or CBD levels?
Any advice would be helpfull.
Thanks Much👊
To me its a myth. The attempted effect should be abig resin production because the plant is trerrified. But i think it dont work at all its just a myth.
I done it.. putting aflushed plant into darkness, the only thing I got was mold...... so i dont theink its useable at all
Hi Mike, i dont think there is a sense in putting your girl into dark. To me its one of the " Weedmyths"... but nearly every week someone talks about it
@Mrs_Larimar,Hey, thanks for the reply
I didn't understand why? So I thought I would ask in case I'm missing something.
I don't need any mold,been lucky so far. I always keep some sort of air movement in the tent.
Thanks again and Grow Big!!
I wonder if seeds can have a virus . Sucks you lost two plants. The others are good I can't think what else would cause a plant to fail.
Finished crop looks to be very successful!
@TastyBudzz,could be a number of reasons😏
Hot spots in the soil,
Overwatering when the plant is very young,
Maybe having the light a little to close,
could have been some user error as well😵
I think you take a bit of a chance with multiple strains growing in the tent at the same
time because they don't always need the same amounts of food or water.
Later!!
@northernMike, did a bit of digging. My theory is that the seed embryo is infected. The way it happens is still being investigated. It's estimated that 20 percent of viruses can be transmit to the seed itself. The other theory is fungi attack the seed after sprouting. But that would not explain that random plants in your garden were effected.
@TastyBudzz,thanks👊
I've heard some people sterilize their seeds in an
aspirin solution, never tried it myself, might be something to check into😏.
Later!
@TastyBudzz,That was my first one, really enjoyed the smoke👌
I'm growing one right now that's 54'' tall and pushing 90 days old,
doesn't look like the first one at all😶
Grow Big!!
Sucks about the candy cane phenno. That's why it's best to grow a couple of plants. Colors look great. Will probably try this auto next. Flavour is supposed to be rich and very sweet.
@@JP148,Hey J.P
your not kidding those plants are monsters👍
So far I've topped every plant except one, tallest plant 17-18''.
I keep my lights as close as possible right from the start.
The Early Miss is on stilts to keep up with the other plants, it's only 12-13'' tall, funny I never topped this plant just bent it over
and pinned it to the soil. I harvested L.B#3 it's in the box drying, posted a few pics.
Have a great day!!
Later
@northernMike yeah, I eventually will but my next grow is all planned out. Got 3 very different strains going in after this present grow. All headbanger potent stains if I do my job🤞. Still have some auto G13 seeds. Checkout my post. They grew into 5ft x-mas trees in 3 gal. pots. Might try an outdoor auto G13 grow this summer..if I can keep It unnoticeable.🙈🤞.
Looking good man great work! I'm not quite sure what your watering schedule looks like, but 2 of my current girls really droop after being watered for quite some time and eventually begin to pray again.
@northernMike, If that was my problem. I would check for room temp fluctuations. Too hot late into lighting ? Water temp too different from grow substrate? You water them and they droop when dry they pray, kinda tells me somewhere in between might help.
@ButtersStotch,thanks alot 👊
I don't really feed on any schedule, but 3 out of 4 of my plants were drooping down every night 3 hours before the light went out.I was trying not to overwater.
In the morning they were praying again, but the soil was really dry,so I gave some more water, same thing would happen.
Talked to the fellow at the local greenhouse and he said it's pretty hard to overwater once they are in the flowering stage because their roots are well established already.
So I have been keeping the dirt a little bit more moist and feeding more water less often, my plants seem to be a little bit happier🙏
Anyways, it's all a learning process trying to figure out what the plants want.I picked up these little watering sticks, they are supposed to tell you
by changing colour when to water, we'll see😵 they were free
thanks again and Grow big!!
@Skatha,so far 90% seed germination from the crop king👍
after that, well, not sure what happened(user error)LOL😶
Anyways, pretty happy with the King.
Thanks and Grow Big!!
Wow amico hai appena avviato un ottimo compagno di crescita..🎖️🏆🏆🏅 Cercherò di seguire il tuo diario... Semmai dovessi mancare a qualche appuntamento settimanale fammi un trillo sulla mia pagina.. Un abbraccio.. E buona fortuna amico.... ❌❌❌ Scusa se nell'ultimo mese sono stato poco presente.. Ho avuto molto da fare. Cercherò di essere più attivo!!!! 🤗🤗🤗
@Compassionate_Gardener,Hey Thanks👊
Can't wait to get back in the tent to try and do it again.🙏
I have some Lambs Breath auto and White Widow auto and some White Cookies photoperiod, hopefully going in the tent
in the end of OCT. or so.
Hope all is well!
Grow Big!!
@Ign33l,Thanks👊
In my first grow I gave a light trim wet and trimmed the rest dry, made a bit of a mess, frost and leaf everywhere😲
In my second grow I gave a really good trim while the buds were still on the branches, no mess just sticky fingers😛
I like this method better and it dried in the box much faster, also found that it doesn't smell like the field as much👌
Hope this helps
Grow Big!!
@DeaneR,Hey thanks
So far my favorite, but I haven't tried the Early Miss yet exept the little I put in a paper bag(too early too tell)
Stay Healthy and Grow Big!!
Just a little advice for your early miss auto.
I just had to super crop mine because it outgrew my lights in an 80 inch tall tent. It got just over 5 feet tall after the stretch.
I'm not sure what kind of grow space you have, but if it's limited I would consider LST or topping to control that vertical growth.
@Skatha,Hey thanks for the info👊 I have a 4x4 tent and a 2x4 tent. I have three lights-CLW500 solar extreme, viparspectra V600, V450
So I can move things around if I have too.
I haven't topped it , I just bent it over almost to the dirt and pinned it and all the branches down.
I used # 12 wire, made a hook and pinned everything to the dirt and I removed some of the bigger fan leaves as they were blocking the light.
If it gets too big, I might transplant to bigger container so I can continue to train. This one is more or less an experiment, so far looks super healthy👌
Thanks again and Grow Big!!
