I went away for the WE and when I came back the plants were 20 cm taller and in full stretch. Luckily the chicken wire had done no damages at all but we noticed some serious yellowing on the lower larger leaves. I decided to give them a potent nutrient mix thinking there was deficiencies but I realized the day after that it made it worse. I took me some reading to understand it is surely a ph lock and an accumulation of solid salts so I rinsed every plant with 4L of luck warm, ph adjusted plain water with a tad of enzymes. It worked really well and the stretch continues. Side note. At the end of week 5 the 2 sweet cheese are 25cm tall while the red poisons are soon to be 60cm. The breeder sell them as having similar end height though. Maybe the phenotype reacting differently to the slight defoliation on week 3 ?

I am almost finished my very first grow.. Red Poison also. It is a very hardy genetics because I made many mistakes and it survived. I have a grow diary if you want to check it out and I'll be following yours.

@Lamainverte, I'm thinking less than 14 more days. Doubt I'll get the red I wanted even if I tried to get cooler temps, but I think I'm going to try

@Hellhazard, I looked at your diary, they look fab despite the not so redish color ! I've read that a big temperature gap between day and night may help. Looking forward to see what yield you pulled and if the final color gets any different.

@Lamainverte, To be honest, my two plants are not nearly as Red looking as Sweet Seeds advertise. They are slightly purple but I do notice them getting somewhat darker with growing age... I don't think I'll end up with that colour when finished unfortunately.

Thanks for the update. Love your set up with the humidifier and scrog net in place. Continued best wishes on the grow.

phosphoric acid is supposedly a better PH Down and is found in most hydro grow stores. the rust spotting seems to be from PH fluctuations in medium with sweet seeds genetics, it happened to me with RedPoison and Black Cream but not Bloody Skunk although all are treated the same. The genetics are strong vs nutrient imbalances but not against PH fluctuations. I also found with my PH pen that the bottom of the rootzone will have a very low PH by the time budding starts. Im not sure if it is just the way the plants grow normally causing such low drops (5,1) or if its from using PH'd nutrients... I always pour mine mixed at 5.8, tested and true. Advanced Nutrients has a rootzone tribe of beneficial microbes/fungi/bacteria if you decide you need rootzone help ( voodoo juice, piranha, tarantula ) My black cream still hasnt changed colours yet.

@Lamainverte, I purchased a BlueLab soil PH pen. It measures liquids and soil PH.. Its a bit more expensive but does both. Also from what I have read, the plant itself will change the PH in the rootzone as it grows... More reading needed.

@Hellhazard,My local grow-shop sold me some Hy-pro pH down. I just double checked the content and it is actually made of nitric acid. It should have been alright but since the first ph lock during week 5, the soils pH has been up and down for no reasons. Not fully controlling my climate (a tad too cold) surely didn't help also. Thanks for the tips, next grow I'll buy a digital pH reader (much faster and easier to avoid pH fluctuations I suppose).

Looking great! might be good to add some silica for strengthening branches. Feed your Girls with Fiji bottled water on one feed - Has natural silica in it! One other tip: Had a friend who ran chicken wire SCROG and found the wire cut into branches. To remedy it, he picked up some of the spray can rubber stuff from home depot (like spray paint but it sprays rubber) and he coated both sides of chicken wire and never had problems again!!

Hello la main verte ! Good job so far ! I was curious about that red poison, I wanted do grow some so i'll folow you to know more about that strain. I'm curious about your nickname too , are you speaking french ?
Lamainverte
Lamainverte
@OutForRealbeanCarib972, Thanks dude. I am curious too, I want to see some red but I am not expecting too much. So far I'd say the strain do not need much nutes but is resilient despite my poor climate control. However that's only my second grow so I guess I lack comparisons. Yes I do, French grower here. Why ?

@Lamainverte, If the pots are sitting on a cold, warmth sapping surface like concrete it will cause what looks to be a Calcium issue. Put a styrofoam sheet under or in the bed of the tent bro... I had to do this for the same reason.
Lamainverte
Lamainverte
@Hellhazard,I realized that too after a couple weeks unfortunately. I've insulated the bed of the tent with cardboxes and styrofoam but I keep having troubles with cold/ph induced deficiencies. (Cal, Mag, P). So far I kept the damages to a minimum with a couple slight pots rinsing,amendements and less nutes. Pictures coming up.

How far away is your light to the top of the canopy? It looks like the leaves are curling away from the light?
Lamainverte

@gdogfunk, 40 to 45 cm depending.

Looking good, so far! Have you used chicken wire before for scrog? Everything I've ready says that's a big no no, since the sharp wire will cut into the plants as they grow into it. I'd spend some time and make a net with string, if you can. You'll also be thankful with the flexibility of the string since it's not fixed in one place.
Lamainverte

@gdogfunk, First time ever honestly. I am not too convinced either ahaha. No hardware store where I live so it is either with the chicken wire either all natural. I'll see as it grows and maybe I'll just sit on it :/

Looking great to start! Love that you're using BioBizz Nutrients!! I run with them on all my grows and my Girls absolutely love it! The only thing I add besides BioBizz's normal schedule of nutes is 2 tablespoons of Expert Gardener Time-Released 12-10-5 w/ Zinc fertilizer at Week 3 and then again in 1st Week of Flower. Great work getting these Ladies Going, and Happy Growing 👍

I personally wouldn't do HST with autoflower genes. When the time comes.. Try LST, way less damage and it works instantly. Within hours you'll see the leaves turning back toward the light.
Lamainverte
Lamainverte
@Hellhazard,I used LST on my previous grow. It works fantastic! I just wanted to give it a try with the plant natural shape. Only slight HST (pinching/bending) on the tallest stalks if the canopy gets uneven when the stretch hits. Thanks for the advice, I'll try to keep it to the minimum.

Your Garden is absolutely gorgeous! You're definitely prepping those Sweet Seeds Genetics well! Keep up the good work👊

SCROGIN with chicken wire. Nice - looking good! Continued best wishes on the grow!

My Red Poison curled leaves like that when it was overwatered. Are you only using a High Pressure Sodium lamp? It seems your plants are behind in growth at this age, but look healthy😊 anyhow!
