2 weeks leaving one be and topped/fimed the other,
Using lights from Walmart
Of fox farm
Plant one in 5.5 g pot
Plant two in 4 g pot
Using regular tap
Going to transfer to the woods at some point... do to the virus and school being closed
Week 3
Wishing I was able to manage the plant easily but since living with my parents for now the woods will have to do.
Light change from indoor to outdoor went well, leaflets were stunted at 3 but new growth is at 5 already. Some trees in the way(since it’s in a ditch) but hopefully as the days grow longer the sun can hit the plants better.
Just added 5-1-1 fish fertilizer, one table spoon ish in a 17 ounce bottle? 10 fl ounces in 5.5 gallon pot and 7 in the other one. Does that seem alright ?
It seems like a pretty heavy dose for the plants being in pots, but organic fertilizers like the fish are usually a lot more forgiving than chemical fertilizers. Just keep an eye on the color of your leaves. If they get really dark green and the tips start to brown then you will need to back off the nitrogen. Good luck with your grow!
Is this leaf septoria? The bottom leaves are mostly infected. It has been raining heavily and some fan leaves were touching the bark on the pot. Thanks for any help!
This is definitely not leaf septoria. Some kind of bugs are munching on your leaves. I would sprinkle some diatomaceous earth around the plant and that will stop most insects. You can also spray some permethrin around the plants also but I wouldn't spray it directly on the plants. Good luck getting rid of the bugs!
Week 4
Hmm not really sure what else besides try to keep fertilizing (and lst)even though i usually use palm plant food instead of fish fertilizer. The 5-1-1 is doing good. Weather has been cold and rainy but today is nice, April 2nd.
I think the suns reaching the plant enough but still I question if I should try to do something for them that wouldn’t attract attention.
Week 5 watered with a gallon and about a tablespoon of 5-1-1 and put some in both pots.
Pistils coming out, still lst and bending branches but the smaller pot seems to be going a little faster in terms of pistil growth
Hey just seeing if anyone can tell what this is, or what type of tiny bug this is, it’s very small and black but there are spiders and a bunch of other insects always around and on the plants, preciate it!!
Hi @Dico29 they seem to me to be spider mite patches, you should spray the plant with neem oil or cinnamon extract as soon as possible. planting outdoors requires some prevention, you have several products on the insect prevention market to apply to the plant and avoid pests. good luck mate 👍
week 6, i removed all the Internodes on the 5.5(I will mark the photos which is which) and lst on the 3 gallon pot(now four main colas).
Temperature is the current temp outside, I do it by day just cause.
There was a big storm and my plants loved it surprisingly, so tomorrow I’m going to drench the 3 gallon,which is dry again, in water to see if any more surge in growth happens.
3 gallon shows heavy prefñower I guess with pistils and the 5 gallon is alright
It’s now showing pistils pretty well, and I got some critical peyote from Barney farms In a napkin right now
There is a little burnt tip on fan leaves I think too much nitrogen since it’s in the big pot and the leaves are dark green. But looks good happy I picked the internodes during preflower too
Ok I am trying to use what I have readily available and was wondering if anyone has fermented banana and orange peels for this stage in flower and applied it in a foliar spray? Thanks
Hi @Dico29 I did it once. A good way to prepare this potassium-rich fertilizer tea is to boil 3 banana peels in 1 liter of water, adding a little sugar. Once the mixture is cold, we remove the banana peels and use the resulting liquid to water our marijuana. This tea is applied during the last six weeks of flowering. With this you will get up to 20% more fattening in your buds. You can also do it using honey, or sugar cane molasses. Good luck mate 👍
They are starting to shoot some pistils. I added some random store fertilizer that is 1-4-7 and put it in the 3 gallon. I poured it in a water bottle and just eye balled it pretty slow and not for long. It seems to help
Hey one of the colas was broken this morning off the 5.5 gallon, I cut part of the cell wall off the bottom and slapped root hormone on it and this is it now... any ideas on if this will work or is it done. Wasn’t broken for too long I imagine still was healthy when I found it
As long as the plant is healthy you have a decent chance of that branch rooting. if you plan to veg that branch out more and make a new plant out of it I would cut off the bud sites and set it under 18/6 lighting so that it can root and reveg. if you just plan on flowering it as it is, then once it roots it should continue to flower shortly after. it might take longer for it to continue flowering due to the stress of rebooting.
now because the plant was flowering when this happened it does lower the viability of it rooting a little but not enough to really worry about. I would remove a few of the bigger fan leaves to make sure it doesn't focus too much energy on growing while it is trying to root. it should root in 7-14 days but may take longer as well. as long as the cutting looks healthy keep at it and it should root eventually. if it starts looking really sad then it may be done for. make sure to mist the leaves daily and if you can keep it under some sort of humidity dome that will help tremendously.
5.5- one of the colas broke off in the night so I am currently trying to put it in a humidity dome. Seems to be less wilted then before. Added molasses this week also.
3 gallon- seems to be doing good, nervous to keep increasing and adding nutrients
Seems to be going good, idk if I should ad more bloom booster or just use molasses. Also the broken cola I replanted, seems to still be alive but don’t really know what else to do. Just hope I can get these out of some random guys back yard soon.
5th week of flower, the plant has stopped growing and focused on the buds.
Both plants look nice, I’m hoping the 3 gallon plant gets fatter before the end though.
Just wondering, I had been using neem oil, and it looks like it’s going to rain for the next ten days almost... does neem oil last long in wet conditions if applied while my plants dry? Should I worry about botrytis/fungi during this time?
That constant rain should definitely wash the neem away, reapply neem every 7-10 days until they start glowerimg then i would stop the neem (the buds will start soaking up the neem and burn your hairs, might get bud rot if the flower doesnt dry out fast enough). Also apply neem in late afternoon or evening so the sun doesnt cook the oil into your leaves and damage/burn them. As for that 10 day straight rain, try and get them out of the direct rain like under a big tree or against a house or shed so that the roots aren't getting soaked to death. You should be okay during the veg stage with the rain but once they start getting big flowers, rain is your enemy so try and keep them dry at that stage.
So it is still raining and the fan leaves look like the cell wall is breaking down, as if my finger is slightly able to be seen through the leaf.
It’s also ripped tears in my fan leaves, would a tarp(transparent)work to help?
Is humidity more of the problem?
Thanks
Starting to show mostly orange pistols, there haven’t been many at all to begin with but also trichomes look clear/ milky.
Probably 2 more watering a with molasses and then wait till ready
There is still pistil growth, I think I am going to keep waiting to harvest.
Some lower buds had mold so I took them off, I think the tops will be ok.
No more nutrients also
I think I jinxed myself worrying about all the rain, I cut off some of the white stuff and edges, not too sure what all to do else? Anyone experienced this?
If its bud rot you need to remove all infected areas. If its bud rot the bud will tear apart easily. You also need to remove anything that was close to infected buds , discard actual buds with rot. Sorry, sucks...
