Well, this week has been eventful. What started with a fly deciding to lay eggs in my buckets with larvae swimming around and chilling on my roots turned into a bit of a disaster. I used very weak H2O2 (diluted 3% solution). To try and clean infestation, the roots didn’t like it, even though the actual concentration of H2O2 was probs less than 0.25%. Lesson learned 🙃 It has given some of them a touch of root rot (this is an assumption because I can’t figure out what else it could have been). So growth has stunted a lot. Just before the bug problem, I increased EC to 1.1, this was probably another mistake, the smaller girls at the back with a smaller root mass got massive lock out, potassium, mag and calcium by the looks of it, coupled with a few not so well timed PH swings out of the 5.5-6.5 range gave me a lot to combat this week. But, life goes on, they’re still alive (just about)... As this is probably the hardest curve ball I’ve had thrown at me since I started growing canna, I have cut back the EC to 0.56 to allow them to heal. Probably wrongly decided to top them all as they were growing past 7th node, either it’s gonna pay off, or I’ll be posting harvest details of 0g by this time next week 👽 I am on a stay at home holiday from work for the next 3 weeks, so looks like my babies are staying in the ICU and I’ll do my best to bring them back to life 😊

To me the Flowering is the most " boring" Part of The grow ------- I love the start, gemination and seedling and training , getting them big...😂 But Flowering is the Meditative Part , too. Just sitting sin front, sniffing, picking away some leaves and just Looking😍

@Mrs_Larimar, agree completely! Maybe I will have to set up a perpetual grow to keep myself busy!

How...how do you get in? Hahaha😅. She's jam packed with goodness man. Some extremely promising buds👍. Btw, I took some advice from the convo you were having w/ Hazey, below. Strung up my Purple Star to space my mains and she is bulking up beautifully 👌. Never thought to use them for that, thanks! Happy grows this week🙂

@NuggetPawn, HAHAHA!😅😅 That's bloody hilarious. Glad you got out, lol! And ya man, definitely not harming and keeping them splaying for air and light. Fantastic 👍
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@JinksyGrows, haha I earlier on in the grow I locked myself in the room for 2 hours late at night because the handle fell off 🦍 thanks for the kind words and glad you’re strapping your girls up, it’s gotta do more good than harm for sure 💪

I am amazed at how the health of the plants seemed to greatly improve when they started to stretch out! As an outside grower I didn’t know that droopy looking veg. would be so productive in flower! Thanks for the lesson and I really appreciate your attention to details in the diary. Buds up bro !!

NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@PoppyJ, DWC is always a battle for me during veg but always shines once the flip button is pressed, thanks for your comments and good luck with your grows 😊

@NuggetPawn, pretty happy myself to actually try a micro-grow - just when I realised I love growing big plants. But like you say - I like to keep a happy life 😉
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, looks like a nice strain, looking forward to seeing what you can get out of her 😀 shame about the downsizing, but I guess happy wife happy life 😜

HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@NuggetPawn, looking forward to growing the Sweet Seed's Skittlez - but that will be a micro grow since I'm being demoted to a smaller footprint 😂 (my wife has done really well so far...). And I'll be bringing my Tropicana Banana from the outdoors inside to start flowering :) Good times ahead. Hope it's a better week for you mate!

Looks nice bud, what kind of hydroponic system is that? Looks pretty sweet.

@NuggetPawn, nice, look forward to seeing what your able to produce with it.
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@Ginger_gnome, planning took most of the time, putting it together and cuttings holes, maybe only a couple hours 😊

@NuggetPawn, NICE!!! I love DIY systems. I'm on the fence on if I want to build one myself or turn 1 of my aerogarden systems into a low Ryder grower. How long it take you to build?

@NuggetPawn, Me too! The Purps is looking good but the Skywalker has been challenging me the past week - some deficiency going on. Hopefully she’ll fight through it 🥊

@StunFlower, thanks stun, really looking forward to seeing what kinda buds you’re gonna pull soon!

One of my favourite grows 👍 looking super fine. When do you wire up the yoyos usually and is it just on the big colas? I'm thinking of using some to space out tops from each other ...
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, haha I like a fat trunk though! 😏
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@NuggetPawn, interesting approach! Going to have to try that next time 😉 .. in the meantime - I'll just ignore the massive trunks on my plant in my grow 🤣
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, thanks man, appreciate it 😎 about 2 weeks after flip I usually try to hook up every cola possible, just make sure you buy plantit! Yoyo’s as they’re super reliable. I don’t have enough of them and the yellow ones are poop, some own brand hydro store ones. It’s a good idea to use them to space the branches out, that’s what I tend to do too. I really think they help with yield too, as I never get any fat trunks as the plants are effectively weightless, so I figure the plant doesn’t use energy to strengthen trunks and uses it for flower production instead 😊
StunFlower
StunFlowercommentedweek 165 years ago
Congrats on the harvest. Looks like you managed to make the best of the situation. What's the story with the red-coloured buds? Mmmm. Hash. I'd like to try making some one day - another project for the list.
StunFlower
StunFlowercommented5 years ago
@NuggetPawn, Awesome! I look forward to the videos.
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@StunFlower, thank you 😊 I’m not sure tbh, I’ve seen another Royal Gorilla diary on here that got some pinky/purple buds so maybe it’s just a pheno thing. 2 out of 5 had some pinky/purple in them. Hash is definitely worth making for sure, I just put my trim with sugar into brown paper bags and stick in the freezer until I’m ready to process, I then use a 220 micron bubble bag, a 5 gallon bucket, flat surface and some dry ice, I’ll post some videos next week 😊

Just love watching that D1-77 time lapse... the flip then explosion. How do you maintain the plants in the back? a crawl through that floor would be a funny sight. Must be smelling wonderful in there now 👌
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@NuggetPawn, perfect to be forced not to touch some of the plants.. I sometimes can't help defoliate and trying very hard this grow not to touch it - just to experience the 'leave the leaves' approach :) Larf is excellent for concentrates 👌
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, seriously smell great, got some great smokey expectations now! Going to the back is impossible without breaking anything now so I haven’t ventured out there for a few weeks. I think I’m gonna get a lot of larf on the lower canopy but I’ll just use that for hash I think! 😊

hey man I'm deciding what beans to pop next. I have these seeds but never grew them. looking for a hard hitting auto with strong aroma. does this fit the bill? mad kief u got there mate. what size microns d are u dry sifting with Growmie? great job on the grow. shame about the bud rot. I wish I had money for one of these https://airsniper.ca/product/air-sniper-low-pro/ and forget about bud rot, powdery mildew and all that nasty crap. maybe one day. happy trails growmie
NuggetPawn
NuggetPawncommented4 years ago
@DaSofaSurfer, I don’t have much experience with autos, but if the auto version is close to the taste and high of this one, I definitely recommend. I use a 220 bag only, as some trichome heads are bigger than 160 sometimes. That looks like some serious kit, would be scared to know how much they cost lol Thanks for your message, hope this helps!
