BLUE GELATO 41 (First time Barneys Farm)

AnKeGrow Germination week, Coco substrate 50%, blonde peat 15%, humus 15%, perlite-pumice 20%, a bit of mycorrhizae; First watering without nutrients, second with Mammoth Microbes and Adamas Agate for rooting pH 5.7

AnKeGrow Focusing on rooting and strengthening growth, I add a base growth product (Adamas Jadeite Grow) and Silicon (Top Barrier) to the mix, raising the pH to 5.9.

AnKeGrow We started the third week since I uncovered the seeds, I'm still using the same nutrients but I'm increasing the doses a bit on some products. At the end of the week, I will start using Green Explosion from Top Crop via foliar to increase plant mass and revitalize the plant (let's hope it works really well). As a new development, my portable pH meter has broken, so while I wait for a new one to arrive this week, I will be calculating a bit with what I already have measured in doses. Buddha and Ganesh have also been moved to provide more energy and harmony to the plants. At the end of the third week, I will be switching to a 7-liter pot, using 4 with substrate and leaving space to fill. For the substrate, I stopped using peat as it was retaining too much moisture, and some plants have suffered from it and are already in recovery treatment. So it’s now 80% coco, 15% perlite-pumice, and the remaining 5% vermiculite and mycorrhizae. At the end of the week, I'm having problems with nutrient absorption, apparently, the pH Down I'm using is too strong (acidic). I'm going into a recovery week, and I will keep updating on how everything goes.

AnKeGrow Finishing the third week, all my plants got sick and were almost on the brink of death; pH problems caused quite a bit of damage. For 10 days, I only fed them water to clean up excesses or deficiencies, and at the end of the week, I will start using BioGrow Organic for growth.

AnKeGrow We started this week with the BG41 recovered almost to 100%, my pH meter finally arrived and a new light, the old and damaged one was reading 1.7 on the pH, so my plants were getting nutrients around 3.8 to 4, they weren't receiving nutrients. I watered all the plants today with just water, the last treatment of only water, and next I'll start with nutrients.

AnKeGrow BG41 fully recovered, starting to generate new branches and doing very well with the roots. I will do the first watering of the week with the growth base, and for the second watering, I will start using silicon (barrier) to improve nutrient absorption and strengthen the plant. I will also do a foliar spray with Green Explosion to increase vegetative mass, and then another foliar spray with Neem Oil as a preventive measure in case of any pests or infestations. I'm increasing the LED light power by 25 to 30%.

AnKeGrow Extreme growth week, both the BG 41 and the SensiSkunk have grown quite a bit more than the others. I raised one light so it's not too close. Overall, they seem to be doing very well; I only found a bit of magnesium deficiency in some leaves. Other than that, everything is going wonderfully. The pots are at half capacity, and this week I will take some cuttings and fill the bags a bit more with Coco, Humus, and Perlite. Before that, I will do a flush with water to level out the magnesium a bit since I can't get CalMag at the moment.
