DAY 29: ANOTHER ROUND OF BOKASHI BLENDS * Topped with 2 TBS each of Homegrown Bokashi Foundation & Kelp Blend, Ocean & Oyster Blend and Castings Mix-Ins. Incorporated into the top inch or so of soil. * Watered with 750 ml of tap watered pH'd to ~6.3 after adding: - Mammoth P: 0.6 ml/gal - Pro-TeKt: 0.5 ml/gal - "Sprinkling" of Aloe Vera flakes * Because I forgot to add the Aloe Vera, I had to apply 250 ml more water. This was very hard on the plant. It went limp, leaves were draped over the side of the pot. If I didn't know better I would think I killed it. * This plant is like a canary in coal mine, it is an early warning system for the other plant in the room. * Must water this plant very carefully. D30: IT'S A MIRACLE! * No, not really. But, what a difference a day makes. The plant is looking much better. No more signs of overwatering. * Recovered well, but I need to avoid it again. DAY 31: JUST KEEP VEGGING * My intent the plant in veg for as long as possible, perhaps as long as another two weeks, through week 6. It is based on this advice, which can be found in a variety of other places as well: https://www.420magazine.com/community/threads/life-cycle-of-autoflowering-cannabis.243982/ * Given its earlier problems, the plant is still looking very good. * I know it's strange, but it does seem that the fan leaves are narrower than earlier. I don't know why maybe they just need to grow some more. DAY 32: PREPARING FOR BLOOMING * The plant looked drought-stressed, so I watered with 750 ml of tap water pH'd to ~6.3. Normal additives plus 1 tsp of Blackstrap Molasses. * Amazingly, the plant looked waterlogged about 90 minutes later. This is one sensitive plant! Or course it recovered without doing anything else. * I will move to flowering nutrients tomorrow. * Late in the day I removed all LST tie downs, just to get an idea of how the plant will develop. DAY 33: WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LET'R GROW? * Last night I removed all the LST ties. Here are some pictures about 12 hours later. * I expect that I will resume training in a few days. DAY 34: JUST PICTURES, NOTHING TO REPORT DAY 35: ANOTHER DAY OF PICTURES, BUT NO ACTION. ### NOTE TO SELF: FIRST TIME USE OF SUPER CROPPING I decided to try some limited super cropping. I just gently squeezed the stem and rotated. It works well with LST. If you bend a stem and super crop it, it tends to stay in place. I have a nice knuckle on one main stem. I will certainly use it again. ###

Grow Questions

BladeCutterstarted grow question 5 years ago
The leaves at the top of the plant seem to be curling up. My first guess is that there is too much light. I recently moved my light down to 12 inches above the canopy. The PPFD should still be under 1,000, but I don't know what else could be causing it. Please help. 🙏

it's mostly down to the temperature i suppose, actually the relationship between the temperature and the humidity regulates the stomatas on the leafs, if the VPD is not where it should be the stomatas can open or contract in a way that bends the whole leafs. Lots of new words, basically stomatas are the leaf pores, VPD is vapor pressure deficit. Hope this helps ! 🚀

I think it’s the watering part even tho your not overwatering you’re still watering it every day so that’s overwatering let it dry it needs an oxygen break before it gets watered again let it decide when it wants water not you ..

@240sxOG, I agree. I'd rather water every other day. This time I have a very light soil mix and will water in slightly greater amounts, but try to keep it to every other day.

Also adding coco to the soil is not a bad idea. It does improve drainage, coco doesn't hold onto water very long. 👍🌱Looking like lovely buds there. And your leaves are fine for this stage of growth, it is normal for them to do this when ripening

@Fruitgrower, thanks for the reply. I harvested both plants in the garden earlier this week. I'll have a full harvest report soon, but I'm hoping for about 25 g per plant dried. That would be about 14% more fruit from these plants than my previous organic garden. Always learning.

Nice buds on this girl as well!! Should be nice and sticky in the grinder:) 11 to 12 weeks is what I had with Mephisto Skywalker and my Sweet n Sour looks like she will be in the 11 week range as well. Enjoy the smoke Boss!!!!!

@PrairieFrostGrow, I harvested my last Double Grape about a week earlier and I think that was too early. This one I let it run until the plant was full of fall colors. It is drying right now, but should be able to measure dry weight tomorrow. I'm hoping for over 28 grams/plant. I may be a bit short of that.

@Mr_Weeds_Autos, thanks for the kind words. If you have comments or questions, feel free. I like to chat. After a long time as a small hydro/photo grower (strickly personal use and then sometimes short 😕) I've moved to organic and autos. What a change. I used to spend all my time trying to control the growth, height in particular. Now it's all about getting them as big as I can. Maybe I should really follow Mephisto's advice and basically grow them as SOG! (From their 2018 Strain Guide: Best Method for overall high yield - 9 per 1,2m x 1,2m sq in 15 Liter pots) I probably should crowd four into my 18"x18" (~0.4 m sq)!
