Howdy hoe and welcome to Week 3, Veg w/ Dutch Dragon, or 'Dutchy', as I've come to know her. The Deets: The Good: -All seems to be going pretty well. There are very slight issues, but they're all aesthetic and I'm working on that. -She is the hammiest out of all 4 girls. The growth rate in height, width, fans and inter-node growth is head and shoulders ahead of her counterparts. -Taking her initial feeds very well without any nutrient burn or symptoms of over-watering's (anymore...). Her prelimary training is also going very well and she hasn't shown any stress with the initial bends๐Ÿ‘ The Bad: -No Bad. Working on things but it's all good for now. The 'Meh': -Over-watered again, but that was early week and I learned my lesson...I hope. Back to the spray bottle for a bit and will be going to full feeds with run-off within a week here. -DD has the strong habit of dipping out, like clockwork, every night at 6 pm (the 14th hour on the 18 hour cycle). I've adjusted all my parameters, one at a time, to see if this would stop, but to no avail. She seems to be genetically pre-disposed to this and I'm going to have to accept that. Nothing's actually wrong with her...she just looks sickly at the end of the day, everyday. Next day she's back to praying like nothing happened. I feel she's just very sensitive to my heat and humidity, but the other girls are loving it. Going to tailor the environment to the other three now, and DD can acclimate or continue on the way she is. I can't cater directly to her while neglecting the needs of the majority. Notes of the Week: -Just watching them grow, really. Still not much to do other then that. Training has been started on 3 of the girls to expose lower nodes to light and air. DD is especially taking well to this and her growth rate/inter-nodal growth is faaaaar faster then the other's, currently. -On Saturday, May 2nd, two of the girls will receive their first feeding with run-off. I feel they have a defined root system to take it and I'm going to test this on 2 of the girls before applying to all of them. Already going against the schedule and tailoring my own feeds to specific needs. -I want the run-offs now, too see what's going on in the soil and if there's anything amiss that I need to rectify before top-side symptoms start to occur. I feel everything is just dandy, but I like numbers and this will validate my thinking. And, if it's effed up I can fix it! -YAH, so I did make the decision to give away the remainder of my GHE micro-gro-bloom nutes, but holding on to Diamond nectar and Floralicious Plus (Lot's left, very expensive, going to use it). Green Planet will be run on all four girls for the entirety of the grow. I have enough of each to carry them through the grow (my estimate...might need more Bloom, according to the doses). Plus, this will make things a lot easier for me. **Community Question:** Dutch Dragon is a weird one. The long and short of it, though, is I noticed she 'dips out' (sags) on hour 14, everyday, on an 18/ cycle. It's like clockwork and I have the photos and time stamps to prove it๐Ÿ˜…. I fought with humidity, heat, the light and the parameters to make her happy, but as the days go on and nothing works, I'm starting to accept that this may just BE her and her genetic make up will continue on like this. I have literally tried it all, but no changes to the environment or feeding times/amounts has given positive results.... Just her? If you have experience with a plant that refuses to acclimate, no matter your parameters, what did you do, or did you just let her do her thing and accept her genetic makeup? Am I missing something with her, too? A supplement or additive to help her along, maybe? I don't know! If you have anything to advice me on, please do! Thanks all for dropping by and seeing DD in her hammy glory and recovery. I wish you all the best this week. Keep healthy and safe! Cheers and much love my friends๐Ÿ˜ŠโœŠ

JinksyGrowsstarted grow question 4 years ago
Starting to select next grow genetics. I know half of what I want but have a short list of the others. Main one I'm looking at is an OG gelato. Have you grown it? What's it like and what bank would you suggest. International is fine with me. Thanks in advance.

I did grow gelat. Og. From seedsman and it was an easy, fun plant to grow. Lovely unique and unusual kushy flavour but not the strongest weed at all. Bubba kush is one I've heard nice things about too. The runtz from zamnesia is getting me excited, going to flip to flower soon! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ‘

I wonder what dominant you will receive. Mines super fox taily and sativa speaking everywhere. Seen a lot of dragons with more indica traits than sativa traits. Looking forward to see what yours does ๐Ÿ˜Š

@JinksyGrows, wait until flower. In really excited to see how yours buds out. Many other dutch dragons I've seen dont have crazy sugar leaves compacted all over the buds. It's going to be a trimmers nightmare hahaha.

Guess that she doesnโ€™t store enough water in her leaves and stem. You can either the environment or train her to adapt. For young seedlings, I use small battery operated water pump with timer. On the other hand, what doesnโ€™t kill her will make her stronger ????

@Med_in_Tropic, You're correct, me thinks. I just gave a good feed and upped my P w/ an adequate amount of Cal/Mag. I feel the root system isn't defined enough to support the top side growth... So your idea is the way to go. Slowing down the heavy N/K and going back to work on the roots for a bit. Thanks so much man. I thought about what to do, a lot. But this seems like the right path to take. Cheers for the guidance๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrows
@Med_in_Tropic, I totally I agree. I think her root system is still beyind/damaged. I threw in bone meal and have been dosing some Cal/mag. I'm hoping it just catches up so it can properly support the top side growth. Requires more patience. Not my best suit, hahaha.

Surprised about the change in nutes line already ... and Future Harvests is Dutch?? have you used them before?

@HazeyBobby, I thought the same thing at first when I saw the Holland part! I have years and years to go too brother. Life long learning curve. I'm positive I'll find a nutrient line I like only for a new line to come out that I want to try๐Ÿ˜…. I hope there's no pressure ๐Ÿ˜€, haha. It'll be awhile
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobby
@JinksyGrows, cool - good to know. I just saw the formula called Holland ... and thought hmmm... when one day you settle on a line - I'll make the switch once I run out of my GHE ๐Ÿ‘ no pressure... I got years of growing at my pace to go :)

@HazeyBobby, Yah, me too. I'm still trying to find a good fit and just want to try a couple more lines to see difference, it any. Oh! And Dutch treat is a potting soil. Future Harvest is out of Kelowna British Columbia ๐Ÿ‘.

What is the purpose of your Bamboo sticks? Is that just for branch support during the late stages?
DeepRootGrows
DeepRootGrows
@JinksyGrows, thatโ€™s a great idea. That is one thing I hate about skrog is itโ€™s impossible to move the plant for sometime.
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrows
@DeepRootGrows, For mobility I use bamboo sticks instead of a scrogg. It's more work, but I'm able to move them around as I please๐Ÿ‘. I insert the bamboo when I do final pot up, into the new soil where there is no root system yet. I use it at first to train the plants outwards and inner laterals into open positions. When I flip, I remove most the training wires and then use the bamboo to brace them inwards over time. As the stretch continues, I can see what and where I need to make adjustments. During flower, none of the new wires are pulling, just bracing the laterals in place. Holds the flower weight very well and I can use them to create an even canopy and adjust as needed๐Ÿ‘. This is all to avoid scrogging, for mobility. Can be a pain in the ass too, though. Haha!๐Ÿ˜…
