Plants are still clones upstairs (about 3 weeks old took about a week to root...in solo cups roots coming out of the bottom of cup)
Getting ready to move in main tent
Feeding schedule listed above was started on Mar 21
Will be using 8 auto pots with 2 50l reservoirs
Clay pebbles on the bottom 2 inch and coco/perlite
4 of the 8 autopots have air domes
March 25th:
Everything the same as week 1
75 drops of rapid start
Only 6 autopots in picture due to fact I ran out of coco.
Will be getting more coco shortly.
Have not turned on air domes yet
Moved 6 clones from solo cups to auto pots
March 26:
Coco has been prepared (made from brick of coco and buffered in cal mag solution for 16 hours)
Mixed coco with perlite and clay pebbles
Transplanted last two clones from solo cup to auto pot
Next steps in grow are to get 8 plants rooted in autopots (drinking from reservoir)...top and or FIM...then set to bud.
Excited for this grow due to the fact I have expanded amount of auto pots (now at full capacity in tent) and growing a new strain that I have high hopes for (Wonder Woman). The 4 autopots from my last grow (not documented on this site) produced AMAZING results and I’m excited to see what 8 auto pots will deliver!!! Used Botanicare nutes last grow this time switching it up to GH.
Mar 30th
Transitioned to week 3 nutes
Arranged autopots in tent (4 of 8 setup with aqua valves)...this will be setup for remainder grow
Setup two 50 litre reservoirs
Plan to turn on autopot system on Thursday or Friday of this week
Moved distance of lights from 30” to 25”
March 31st
Turned on reservoir for 4 auto pots hopefully received their last top watering this evening (all four drinking from bottom)
Setup aqua valves on other 4 auto pots, will turn on reservoir on Thursday or Friday (not all 4 drinking from bottom yet)
Stopped using rapid start with this watering
Put two seeds to crack.....Alaskan Purple (1 seed) Phantom OG (1 seed). Plan to use both as mother plants for next grow.
April 3rd
Captains log...tired of Covid 19! :)
Watered plants from top for last time on phlizon side...turned on second reservoir. If all goes according to plan will be last time I water from top and plants will drink from reservoir for rest of grow. Will top plants next week once they drI nk about half of reservoir.
Seeds have tails and been moved to soil and will be mothers for next grow
April 6
Topped and defoliated 1 of 8 pants tonight, going to do another plant or two tomorrow. Plan is to have all plants topped and defoliated this week!
April 7
Topped and defoliated 3 more plants today...total of 4/8 complete. Will top remaining 4 plants on Thursday or friday!
April 8th
All plants now topped and defoliated! Will wait another 7 days and switch to 12/12. Each reservoir only has 30% or so of water gone...still haven’t had to refill yet.
April 15th
Switched to 12/12 lighting and started transition nutes in one reservoir will mix in other tmr
Plants have responded well to topping and defoliation last week
Will remove plants from tent to take more pics later in the week....excited to start seeing some buds!
April 16th
Filled second res.
April 22nd:
Refilled 1st reservoir (first time in 7 days).
Plants are 7 days into switch. Haven’t seen any pistols yet....running same nutes as last week. Will fill second reservoir tomorrow
April 24th:
Filled second reservoir mixed nutes as 12 gallon ppm was 650 vs mixing as 13 gallon reservoir 800 ppm
Defoliated two plants (second time)
May 13
Switched to late bloom nutes
Cut clones tonight, for next grow...will be growing 4 Alaskan purple and 4 phantom OG. Figure there is about 4 weeks or less until harvest on this grow.
Happy with results from this grow thus far and looking forward to posting final result pics.
Can’t take plants out of tent easily anymore therefore will only be taking pics with grow lights on until harvest
