This is my first grow, felt like now is the perfect time to start. 😅
Picture 1 - The plants will have a 24h schedule with both sun and LED light. The solution with the cloth in front of the window is only temporary, I need something thats easy to pull up as soon as the sun comes out.
My light is about 16in/37cm away from the plants, please let me know if its too close or too far away from the seedlings.
Up until this point I germinated both the seedlings using one of those 'Easy Start' Kits with Microorganisms, I then just transplanted both plants with the soil still attached to them in the final pots.
I am using Bio Bizz Light Mix for the soil. In about 1 week I will start adding the fertilizers, I will go with about half of what it says on the nutrient schedule because these are autoflowers.
Picture 2 - Day 1 - Seedling number 1 is looking healthy. (I think?)
As you can see I put a hygrometer next to it so I can monitor the Humidity and Temperature levels. I currently have a humidifier running next to the plants and humidity levels seem to be good so far. I read online between 65-80% are good at this stage.
Picture 3 - Day 1 - Seedling number 1 again. At this stage I only water around the plant and dont soak the whole pot, I read that soaking the whole pot while the plant is this tiny can overwhelme the plants. I also noticed that the leaves look kinda yellow-ish? Please let me know if thats normal.
Picture 4 - Day 1 - Seedling number 2.
I need help with this one I dont know why but he doesnt look good, from the beginning he was much slower than plant 1 and when he finally popped out he looked like he was dying, he is kind of gaining a little bit of color now again but I dont know if he will make it. If you know whats wrong with him please let me know. I hope he opens his two little leafs soon.
I still have a third seed laying around so please let me know if it'd be smarter to just abandone number 2 and germinate a new seed. Thanks for reading this far and I'll update as frequent as possible.
Day 1 Issues Update - After taking a look at seedling number 2 again and seeing that after all this time it still didnt show any progress, I noticed that one of the two first leaves is actually cut. I mustve damaged it while inspecting earlier because I, (stupid newbie move), touched it too much or whatever. Now germinating my last seed in hopes that all goes well.
Since I dont have anymore 'Easy Start' kits im going to try a different germination method, I will put the seed in a cup of water with a piece of cardboard on top of it overnight (12-15h) and then plant it into the moist soil afterwards. 😄
Picture 5 - Day 2 - Seedling 1 is still doing fine. In the morning the temperatures went up a lot (29 Celsius), due to the sun shining a lot through the window, and the seedling was showing slight signs of heat stress (Leafs going up and small yellow-is tint), I then opened the window and the Temperatures quickly dropped back to normal (20-23 Celsius). Moisture levels seem lower than yesterday and Im not sure why (probably because of the heat and opening the window?), still at a solid 62% tho so Im not too bothered.
Picture 6 - Day 2 - Since my last Seedling 2 died I germinated another one, I put it in a glass of water over night (~15h) and then planted it into the soil. Hopefully it'll pop out in the next few days... 💪
Picture 7 - Day 3 - Everything looking good with Seedling 1, I kinda felt like it was sort of streching too much instead of growing its leaves, so I put the light closer to it. I will water again tomorrow, the last time I watered was when I put it in the soil 3 Days ago.
Picture 8 - Day 3 - The new Seedling 2 is still germinating and will hopefully pop out of the soil in the next few days.
Picture 9 - Day 4 - Seedling 1 still going strong, leaves are praying but I read that that is a good sign. I watered both pots again today with just Ph-water, will add fertilizer in about 3 days for seedling 1.
Seedling 2 is still germinating, will post a new picture as soon as it pops out of the soil. 😉
Picture 10 - Day 5 - Seedling 1 looks healthy, but is going kinda slow. Turns out I had the light far too high... 😐 Pulled it as much down as I could now and its already growing better! Main indicator for not enough light was the stretching and the thin leaves. I will probably have to invest into a bigger setup as soon as flowering hits. ✊
Picture 11 - Day 6 - Seedling 1 leaves are getting bigger and the next set is already on the way.
Picture 12 - Day 6 - After 4 days germination, seedling 2.1 finally popped out the soil! 👏
Picture 13 - Day 7 - Seedling 1 leaves seem a bit curled up, probably because of the hot sun this morning, Im not too worried tho. Will water with nutrients the first time tomorrow.
Picture 14 - Day 7 - Seedling 2.1 looking fine, soil was pretty dry so I watered it a bit with ph water.
Seedling number 2 had a hard time germinating with my Easy-Start kit. He took a long time to pop out of the soil and looks like he is in bad condition, I dont know what I did wrong. Please let me know what I can do and if you think he'll make it. Thx
Give it a day so it can open properly. Other than that there is nothing you can do and you certainly did nothing wrong. If by tomorrow it hasn't improved, then pop another seed
Picture 1 - Day 8 - Seedling 1 got its nutrients the first time today. 1ml/L Biobizz Grow about 700ml.
Picture 2 - Day 8 - Seedling 2.1 still stretching a bit too much, am waiting for the new light to arrive.
Picture 3 - Finally got the new setup, the grow tent isnt perfect yet but itll do for the next few weeks (its just an old temporary closet) it leaks a lot of light and moisture but since I only have these 2 mini plants rn I dont think its gonna be a huge problem until flowering.
Picture 4 - Day 9 - Seedling 1 looking good and Seedling 2.1 (3 Days old) will hopefully stop stretching now that I finally got the bigger light here. Watered 2.1 again today with just ph water.
Picture 5 - Day 10 - Nothing special happening, the plants are looking good!
Picture 6 - Day 11 - I now installed a fan in the grow area to better the ventilation. The fan is doing a great job at moving air around, but kinda messing up the moisture coming out of the humidifier... (With fan and humidifier on at same time = 40% with just humidifier running = 60-70%) Not sure how to fix that yet... Will water Seedling 1 again tomorrow.
Picture 7 - Day 12 - Seedling 1 growing good but its leaves are still looking really weird, I think theyre going up on the edges because I put them under slight wind stress, but that issue is fixed now. Some parts of some of the leaves still look really odd to me, like they got cut off or something? I dont know
Picture 8 - Day 12 - Seedling 2.1 is 6 days old now and growing good, theyre some tiny yellow dots on the leaves surface but its really slight so I dont know if its something bad. I watered both plants today, Seedling 1 with Bio Grow Nutrients and Seedling 2.1 with just Ph'd water.
Video - Day 13 - Both seedlings still growing, but looking kinda sus.
My seedlings, especially Seedling 1, look kinda weird to me. Seedling 1 appears to have some weird yellow spots here and there and the leaves look cut? They just look really weird and not like normal cannabis leaves, both seedlings have their leaves going up at the corners.
The edges of the leaves are curling up like if you had a low humidity range or high temps but yours is ok.
The weird colour on some leaves is a variegation mutation.
Some of the leaves are distorded , some have a puffy looks because the soil must be pre enriched and you are bringing more nutrients so the plant will handle that amount when she'll be older , you can cut the bio grow.
They are looking like if they have some leaves mutations
Picture 1 - Day 15 - Seedling 1 is 17cm now and I just started to do some LST.
Picture 2 - Day 15 - Seedling 2.1 is about 7 days now and still growing good.
Picture 3 & 4 - Day 16 - Seedling 1 LST
Picture 5 - Day 16 - Seedling 2.1 first dose of nutrients, 1ml/L
Picture 6 - Day 17 - Seedling 1 seems to have a calcium deficiency so Ill be purchasing some CalMag soon, I hope its not a rust fungi! 😅🙏
Picture 7 - Day 17 - Seedling 2.1 looking healthy and growing very fast.
Picture 8 - Day 18 - Seedling 1 reacting very well to the LST, the calcium/magnesium deficiency seems to have stopped spreading. Bottom leaves still look kinda f'd up but I think it will stay like that forever now, new leaves look perfect tho.
Picture 9 - Day 18 - Seedling 2.1 looking good.
Picture 10 - Day 20 - Seedling 1 getting really big suddenly, I think flowering is right around the corner, so I will put away the humidifier now (its getting kinda nasty anyway lol). LST going really well.
Picture 11 - Day 20 - Started LST on Seedling 2.1 seems to work well.
Picture 12 - Day 21 - New Setup, 80x80x180cm. 100mm Carbon Filter.
Picture 13 - Day 21 - Seedling 1 still going strong, LST is getting kinda stressful since they grow so fast.
Picture 14 - Day 21 - Seedling 2.1, everything looking good! 😁
Picture 1 - Day 22 - Dwarf 1 everything good.
Picture 2 - Day 22 - Dwarf 2.1 also going strong. 💪
Picture 3 - Day 23 - Put a couple of Sensi Seeds Jamaican Pearls with the Royal Dwarf since I got the big tent now, by the time they get big the Royal Dwarfs should be ready for harvest, so Im not to worried about space problems. One already popped out and the other two I just put into the soil for germination.
Picture 4 - Day 26 - The tips and the middle of the upper leaves all look yellow, I suspect its light burn but its been going on for a while now. I already have the light like 15cm higher than what the manufacturer recommends, perhaps its nutrient burn? Other than that Im really happy with how well the LST worked out on Dwarf 1.
Picture 5 - Day 26 - Dwarf 1 is actually starting to flower (shooting pistils). Yay! Started to feed bloom today, forgot to ph the water. (I wish there was a facepalm emoji) 😅 Think itll be alright tho...
Picture 6 - Day 26 - Same problem with the light/nutrient burn, but Im sure Ill figure something out. I was kinda lazy with the LST on Dwarf 2.1 the last few days but Ill do it new again today.
Picture 7, 8 & 9 - Day 27 - Nothing special happening, plants seem to be happy.
Picture 10 - Day 28 - Dwarf 1 doing good, I noticed a Nitrogen deficiency tho (leaves get yellow from the top up). Decided to flush a bit with just ph water today and maybe use a bit less nutrients on the next feeding.
Picture 11 - Day 28 -Dwarf 2.1 got just ph water too today to prevent Nitrogen deficiency.
Picture 12 - Day 28 - Current setup. (All the jamaican pearls germinated, decided not to create an extra diary for them because itd just be too much to update constantly.)
Ive been having yellow tips on the tops of both my plants for some time now, I already raised the light up a bit higher than the maximum height the manufacturer recommends, but Im still having the yellow tops. Could this be nutrient instead of light burn?
Hey buddy this looks like a deficiency, if you haven't eaten much before it's a deficiency, if it was too much it's a lock :-)
If you overfeed, I would proceed as follows. Best if you have osmosis water and mix the stale water for 24 hours (after 24 hours the chlorine has evaporated somewhat) to an Ec value of 0.2. Then add Cal / Mag until the Ec is 0.4. This is your source of water, so you can flush. At the next pour, start with a quarter of the feed dose.
My older plants leaves are turning yellow from the bottom up. Its probably a nitrogen deficiency I think, I read that its common for plants in late flower but this one just shot its first pistils. What would be the smartest thing to do to combat this? Thx
Its only on 4 leaves rn
Hello.. Hope you are well.. Not to worry its just old leaves tgat have used up all their energy.. Just snip them of n all will b gud.. The look nice n healthy tbh.. Stay safe n gud luck.. 👍🍀
Picture 1 - Day 29 - Both dwarfs looking happy, still some nitrogen deficiency going on, but theyre growing fast.
Picture 2 - Day 29 - Dwarf 1 stretched at least 5cm over night which is pretty crazy to me, I thought I overwatered him quite a bit with my flush yesterday but he seems to be well. I stopped with LST on dwarf 1 simply because Im to lazy and I think its already done most of its work.
Picture 3 - Day 29 - Dwarf 2 looking real good, his fan leaves are huge! Dwarf 2 still getting some LST. (I put the 3 jamaican pearls on some books since I felt like they were stretching a bit too much.)
Picture 4 - Day 31 - I cut off the two really beat up all leaves, all other leaves look fine just some yellow tips here and there but nothing worrying. Its still growing like 5cm a day lol pretty big dwarf.
Picture 5 - Day 31 - Dwarf 2.1 doing good aswell Dwarf 1 is so much bigger now though, hard to believe that theyre only 8 days a part. Dwarf 1 also had a way worse first week than this one did because I didnt have good light back then. I think I just did a better job on the LST with Dwarf 1 because I got too lazy lol. We will see if itll be as big as Dwarf 1 when its 5 weeks old. Dwarf 2.1 will also go into flower soon I think, its preflowering.
Picture 6 - Day 32 - Dwarf 1 doing very good still growing like crazy.
Picture 7 - Day 32 - Dwarf 2.1 growing a bit slower but still good.
Picture 8 - Day 34 - Put smaller plants on boxes so they get enough light, since I had to raise it because Dwarf 1 is getting big.
Picture 9 - Day 34 - 65cm now, wow.
Picture 10 - Day 34 - Dwarf 2.1 going good. To this day I havent been able to get rid of the yellow tips tho, theyre still growing good so I just dont care anymore. I think maybe did something wrong 1 time and the effects are just permanent, since the plants seem to be really happy.
Looking back at recent weeks I realized that I mustve had a weird filter put over my pictures because some spots of most of my pictures are really unnaturally green looking. It kinda angers me but I fixed it, quality of my pictures looks much better now.
Picture 1 - Day 36 - Beginning of Week 6
Video 2 - Day 36 - Just a quick vid of how things are looking in the tent rn. The jamaicans are growing good too.
Picture 3 - Day 36 - Dwarf 1 looking good, he has stopped stretching now at 70cm.
Picture 4 & 5 - Day 36 - Buds on Dwarf 1.
Picture 6 - Day 36 - Dwarf 2.1 has weird looking new growth and isnt growing as fast as Dwarf 1, I think he will probably stretch a lot soon since he is in flower now.
Picture 7 & 8 - Day 36 - Dwarf 2.1 shooting pistils.
Picture 9 - Day 37 - Dwarf 1 going ok.
Picture 10 - Day 37 - Trimmed of some of the dying lower leaves of dwarf 1, still contemplating a flush on both the dwarfs.
Picture 11 - Day 37 - Dwarf 2.1 also going good.
Picture 12 - Day 39 - Dwarf 1 going strong. Will flush at next watering.
Picture 13 - Day 39 - Dwarf 2.1 also going good.
Picture 14 - Day 40 - Just a quick vid of current setup, started lst on the jamaican pearl that I topped.
Picture 15 - Day 40 - Dwarf 1 is developing a lot of buds.
Picture 16 - Day 40 - Dwarf 1 buds.
Picture 17 - Day 40 - Dwarf 2.1 also developing buds.
I think I have overfed my 2 dwarfs. Theyre showing signs like very stringy skinny new growth and yellow leaf tips. Theyre still growing and I dont want to stunt their growth, so all I want to know is if it is necessary to flush. Please tell me how to flush if so, thank you.
If you overfeed, I would proceed as follows. Best if you have osmosis water and mix the stale water for 24 hours (after 24 hours the chlorine has evaporated somewhat) to an Ec value of 0.2. Then add Cal / Mag until the Ec is 0.4. This is your source of water, so you can flush. At the next pour, start with a quarter of the feed dose.
Ive been battling yellow tips and leaves dying from the bottom up for a few weeks now, I thought I gave them too much nutrients and started feeding less and flushed them a few days ago. I thought I had a nitrogen deficiency because of a nute lock, well turns out in reality I gave them too little nutrients and just made everything worse with feeding less and flushing, bruh. I have a Potassium (K) deficiency, I will from now on feed using the BioBizz feeding schedule and hope my Dwarfs will be good. I already simulated a little bit of morning rain using the BioBizz schedule, about 400ml, just so the upper root mesh can already pick up some Potassium (K).
The bud development is also going quicker now over the last days, I feel like my dwarfs are a bit behind on buds because of the deficiency and me not realizing which one it was.
Picture 1 - Day 43 - Topped the two smaller pearls. Dwarfs going ok.
Picture 2 - Day 43 - Dwarf 1 is 90cm now, I dont know why since the advertised height is 60cm, Im not mad tho hopefully it just means more buds. 😁
Picture 3 - Day 43 - Dwarf 2.1 is 68cm now, he got a huge boost since he went into flower and I started feeding more, his buds are also getting thicker now.
Picture 4 - Day 44 - Dwarf 1s buds are slowly but surely getting frosty. Theyre also getting pretty huge now, yay!
Picture 5 - Day 47 - Potassium deficiency keeps getting worse on both plants. I fed them a lot of nutrients again todays I hope itll help.
Picture 5 - Day 47 - Buds looking ok, kind of tiny still for 7 weeks.
Picture 6 - Day 47 - Dwarf 2.1 seems to be hit harder by the deficiency.
Havent been updating as often sorry for that, I just didnt feel like it I guess because It hasnt been going too good with the dwarfs, these deficiencys really dont have any chill lmao getting really tired of this.
Picture 1 - Day 51 - Pearls getting really bushy, dwarfs somewhat recovering from their deficiency.
Picture 2 - Day 51 - Dwarf 1 potassium deficiency seems to have slowed down but now there are a lot of brown spots developing on the upper leaves, I suspect I didnt give enough Cal Mag. Fucking hell I hate these deficiencies...
Picture 3 - Day 51 - Dwarf 1 buds are getting fat at least.
Picture 4 - Day 51 - Dwarf 2.1 seems to be fine now tho, at least the yellowing has stopped developing and no brown spots.
Picture 5 - Day 57 - Dwarf 1 buds are getting bigger and bigger and also frostier, dwarf 1s upper leaves look really f'd up now tho lol the K deficiency didnt go easy on him. I just hope he'll be fine and that I can still harvest in the next 2 or so weeks. Until then I probably wont update as often since theres just not much to see right now.
Picture 6 - Day 57 - Dwarf 2.1 had a major bounce back and the deficiencys seemingly stopped attacking him, unlike his older brother. Hes looking good and the buds are getting big and frosty.
Picture 7 - Day 57 - Dwarf 2.1 buds
Beginning of Week 9. I got some Greenbuzz Liquids More PK now to finally help with my K issues.
Picture 1 - Day 60 - Beginning of Week 9
Picture 2 - Day 60 - Picture of my plants in the bath tub lol
Picture 3 - Day 60 - Dwarf 1 buds getting so big, should be ready for harvest soon!
Picture 4 - Day 60 - Dwarf 2.1 also making big progress with its buds.
Hey, my Royal Dwarf Autos are already 5 weeks over the normal finish time and there is no sign that it'll end soon. The buds still have a lot of white pistils and I cant spot any brown trichomes yet, I think theyre all cloudy tho. What could be the reason it is taking so long?
Привет, брат! 👋
Производитель твоих семян заявляет о 9 недельном цветении растения, для того чтоб называть его спелым! 👆
Я посмотрел твой дневник и ты верно ведешь отсчёт недель цветения! Цветение у тебя началось на 4 неделе роста! У тебя сейчас уже идёт 11 неделя цветения! Это значит что 15 неделя роста у тебя неделя Flush! Ты промывай её всю 15 неделю и в конце снимешь урожай! Она уже спелая девочка! Она уже бриллиантовая! 👌
Удачи, друг! ✊😇
Give it a day so it can open properly. Other than that there is nothing you can do and you certainly did nothing wrong. If by tomorrow it hasn't improved, then pop another seed
@@Athos, After taking a look at it again and seeing that after all this time it still didnt show any progress, I noticed that one of the two first leaves is actually cut. I mustve damaged it while inspecting earlier because I, (stupid newbie move), touched it too much or whatever. Now germinating my last seed in hopes that all goes well.
@Bud_Spencer, hi thx for the reply, I know the yellow tips are a sign of too much light, but I already tried dimming the light and putting it up a lot. I am quite convinced that the problem is a nute burn and not light stress. Nitrogen toxicity probably
@5leaves, thank you! Im kind of sad because of the deficiencies and how f'd up the upper leaves on the older one look, but I guess its fine as long as they have huge buds lol. Just want my plants to look good lowkey 😅 Lets see how much Ill be able to yield
