Heater stopped working; so need to replace. Explains the 65 degrees! No overwatering and no nute burn on new growth! The 0.33 gallons per 24 hour per plant is REALLY going to be 0.33 gallons twice a week; next is Wednesday or Thursday. Heater should be in by then, too. [Nope, damn Amazon is bringing it June 1st. Maybe I will buy one local as a back up.] Things are going very well right now.
Thinking about how to do a perpetual harvest, cloning, and mothers.
Each plant has 3 nodes currently. (Will top after 6th node visible to begin manifolding into 8 colas. At this growth rate that may be the end of the week if the heat doesn't affect it too much.) [as of 5/26 Tuesday, The plant has 5 nodes if you count the cotylhedons. ]
*Remember to shake all your bottles before mixing AND EVEN the ph down bottle!!!!*
[5/28, Holy shit the Big Bloom container's liquid went from clear to brown? Did I finally shake the bottle enough to loosen up aged sediment? WTF!] *Shake your bottles more than you think you need to!*
5/31 - Plant A and B showed slight leaf curling, dryness, and darker green coloring. Since there has been so much growth I expect that curling due to too much light. Went from 21" up to 27". Plant A 3.5" tall, B 5", C 6". Nodes: A and B have 5 visible while C has 6. Turned up the temperature one notch , but I should move it to a 18/6 on off. I expect by the end or middle of this week all will have at least 6 nodes and I will top above the third to begin manifolding a la Nebula. Week 3 of veg starts tomorrow. I need to increase humidity also thinking of the dry leaves. I will likely put a humidifier in this week on a low setting to see what it does.
@MarijuanaFarmer, My first full-grow and I wanted to manifold. Made some mistakes but one of these plants looks like an 8-pack of colas, lol. Thanks for the kind words, Spade.
Looking great! take it easy on the LST you dont wanna stress too much! Maybe try a few days of flush as you can clear the nutrient burn and restart slowly. PH is super important 6-6.5 that was my problem last year lol. Pretty excited to watch yours too as i have the exact same seeds just growing mine outdoors!
@thelastopera, Yeah flush is always in my arsenal, but only if I have consistent symptoms across a plant and across plants. I will likely flush just before 12-12 switch and definitely before harvest; potential to flush 1-2 times during flowering. Depends on how crazy I get! New pH meter coming tomorrow to narrow in on 6.2. I have done 5.8 with soil successfully but that was using GH's hydro nutes; while I am using soil nutes now.
I know the LST looks painful; super scared doing it but I eased off Doing it too harshly yesterday with Plant A: James Hetfield. I will check it out in a few hours and make some adjustments.
Looking good bud! I am doing the same WW fem seeds also from crop king but growing outdoor and in coco. excited to see how it goes will be following you along with way. Happy growing!
