8 days ago I bought 10 clones and transplanted into 7-one gal containers, and 3 slightly larger pots. The soil was a mix of Coco, soil, perlite, with 2 tbps each of Dr. Earth (which is an organic dry nutrient). I have had 2 waterings since then with 6.5 pH water, ppm is 8 as it's rainwater with low ec. The transplant had them stay at the same size for a few days. the nutrients were alittle to high, had some slight twisting in afew plants and a few burned tips. They have grown an in or more since then and added another leaf set

This was a really good week. The aerated compost tea of week three had all the leaves deep green, all the leaves flat and soaking up the light. Transplanted the 7 in one gallon pots to 5 gallon buckets. After they all had some lst.

This week I transplanted the last 3 bubbleberry plants into 5 gallon buckets. All ten had some LST. They weren't happy after transplant but are looking healthy and happy as of today

Strenffgainsstarted grow question 5 years ago
Some of my leaves on a few plants have started to look like they are lacking something. normally my new growth comes in lighter green then darkens up. These leaves have stayed lighter and have the yellowish pattern developing. Am I in need of cal/mag?

based on recent behaviour... limited fertilizing -- need to feed. been feeding from start -- stop feeding now and let it 'reset' to alower concentration in substrate, then resume, but give a bit less -- either less frequently or slightly lower concentrations.. context disctates what is best. And no, that is neither a Ca or Mg related problem from what i can tell. those start with spots first then progress. starting from tips in, lower on plant -- mobile, likely nitrogen... assuing pH and not lockout from overfeeding other stuff.. e.g. if you dump a ton of cal-mag on a problem that has nothign to do with ca or mg, then you will cause K/Fe/Mg and Mn deficiencies eventually, because teh Ca ions clog sh%t up, chemicaly/biologically speaking.

Afew weeks ago I had a question up because my plants were yellowing. I'm used to using liquid amendments, using dry amendments now. Some awesome users had some comments that helped me on that. Week 7 I went to full 12/12 with the light losing time each day for a week up to that point. The girls are looking very good. The first few weeks they grew up more and started developing individual calyxes to swell and trichomes developing all over. I took clones 5 weeks ago that all look excellent, more clones taken Saturday. Also bought a spider farmer 1000 for veg area, have my official grow area framed with two rooms. This is my first grow in years, just getting started and loving every minute.

Start of week 5 of flower. Everything is going well. My pics are two smaller plants I took out under regular light. My humidity is very low in my tent, I pull air out with a blower through my light, put the glass with just a bit of air that can get past and the rest is pulled through a 6 inch run on the other side of my light.

Monday July 13th was the start of week 6 in flower. These pics are from Wednesday. Pulled back some of my top colas to give lower buds some light. The bud is roughly the thickness of my thumb in most places, certain tops being a decent bit thicker (a very scientific analysis I know). My humidity still seems low, that being my only complaint I will roll with it and enjoy watching these girls get thicker
