Week 3 has been fairly good. It started off with my trusty humidifier biting the dust and finding my humidity down to around 35% 😩 So I quickly purchased a replacement, which increased my temperature to 79 degrees but also brought the humidity back up to 73-75%. The first day of higher temperature had a leaf or two get some slight wilting, but the following day they went back to normal and the explosion (explosive sound) started!
I also upped the nutes on Monday, bringing my PPM up to just under 600. Gotta say it’s been pretty smooth since then as the girl has reacted positively.
I literally topped this morning, although yesterday I wasn’t sure if that 5th node would come out before I posted. Overnight it granted my wish of being big enough to snip!
Again, this is my first experience, so although my feelings may be good so far.. I’d love to hear back from you guys about what you see and if I need to change anything or implement any cool stuff.
Speaking of cool stuff, I’ll be putting together my top hanging 2 net Scrog this weekend. So wish me BIG luck on getting it right!
PS. I forgot to get pics of the roots, but they are long as crap and all white (h2o2 once a week). I’ll include them next week.
Anybody know why I’m seeing brown spots and burnt tips? I think it might just be time for a res change. Haven’t done it since I flipped and she’s been drinking about 1.5 gallons a day for the last 2 weeks.
@DudeGrowsWeed, I’ve changed the water 3 times total. I think you’re heading in the right direction.. it probably does need to be changed since I haven’t changed since the flip (5weeks ago). Looks like I’ll be making a h2o run in the morning! Today... well you know what today is 💨 Also, great name man.. the dude abides.
@biggreens420, thanks. I picked up the materials for a Scrog net today. So sometime this week I’ll put it together. I’m waiting on the 5th node to top, which should be in the next day or two.
@Flavoursuk, thanks! Sorry for the delayed reply, haven’t had the opportunity to get on here much. I’m hoping she stays healthy and brings in some good yields.
It's up to you like you say i would give her a week if your still not satisfied with the net give her longer so it's full to your liking if u strip the lower stuff it will make the tops stretch also i would recommend this as the bottom branches will be struggling all the time sapping energy from the rest of her
@biggreens420, thanks for the tips. I’ll defoliate today and see how she does this week. I feel like the growth at this point is coming on much quicker than previous weeks, so the net may fill up by next weekend.. hopefully I’ll have some big greens! Haha, dad humor.. I’m sorry.
Sounds like you’ve had a hell of a week, glad to hear she has recovered man, good effort pulling her back. I will be ever more mindful when adding my nutrients ;)
Hopefully everything goes smooth for the rest of your grow
@KushyLou, thanks man! Yea the nute mix up had me really worried. I’m also growing a Kush that literally ate it and kept going with barely any signs of stress. I still ended up with a little nute burn on Liberty but she’s picked up and started to really blow up. I’m not sure if I’ll flip in 1 more week or 2. She’s like right at the Scrog net now and that’s after some good LSTing. It’s pretty much an entirely new experiment for me so I’m trying all the tricks I can think of 😂
Anyways, thanks for checking me out and giving me some words of encouragement! May your grows be bountiful my friend!
You seem to be good to go! I'm not as experienced with hydro, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask! If I can't answer it, maybe someone else can!
First grows are scary and exciting at the same time! Liked and followed!
@PoppaMac, yes finding the "list of all tutorials" page and the "list of all growing topics" page expanded my resources on GWE greatly
http://www.growweedeasy.com/link-guide-growing-cannabis
if you go to the "Tutorials" or "growing topics" header at the top of each page they are the last item on the drop-down menu, for future reference
@Jaindoh, yessir! That’s what I was thinking the ratio would be but hadn’t found a breakdown. Excellent source you dropped me! I’ve skimmed that site like 50 times and hadn’t run across that info before. Lol. So thank you for the quick reply with the essential answers!
@bobo420, thanks for the input! That’s what I was kind of feeling with the nutes.. she was looking good without the scheduled max, but I thought it might boost her, nope I was wrong.
I guess I’ll see how big she gets this week and maybe it’ll be time for flip next weekend!!! It’s crazy how fast the time has passed.
@PoppaMac, yeah, AN have pretty much all nutrients on 2ml/l, haven't used those in particular so can't tell you what would be best, some plants like more or less of nutes, she looks healthy so I wouldn't go overboard. As for SCROG, I'd wait until she fills that square a bit more, 2 weeks might be too much, because she's going to stretch in first few weeks of flower too
@bobo420, thank you!! The nutes had me worried since they “should” be much higher according to the schedules I’ve seen online. I just don’t think I can bring them up above 600 ppm without burning her. C’est la vie. Any advice on the Scrog? Should I wait another 1 or 2 weeks?
Hazes take way too long for me, your anticipation must be killing you!
By the looks of the pictures though, I think you will find the wait well worth it =)
@Jaindoh, I truly didn’t know how long the haze’s growth would take! I popped the seed and THEN looked her up... when I saw some people at 20+ weeks I knew I was in for it. The haze family is one of my favorites to smoke/edibilize so I wanted to go with one before my favorite, super lemon haze grow. Didn’t know much about Liberty prior, it was just a free seed 😂
a great strain to smoke! looking very nice! only problem for me was don't smoke it before you go to sleep! it's a real sativa and your brain will be very active . great social smoke. good luck
@Bluesbreeder, that’s exactly the type of strain I want! This is gonna be my daytime smoke. I definitely won’t use this at night unless it’s the weekend.
It's going great here 👍 I'm now in week 7 of flowering stage of the same strain. Gonna give them 2 more weeks with nutrients and then start flushing for 2 weeks. Good luck but I think this will go fine 😉
@@JackSpliff, hey man, sorry for the delay. Heck yea your girls are looking sexy! I didn’t know that Lady Liberty would take so dang long! I feel like she won’t be ready until Juneish.
@biggreens420, lol @ gonna! I’ve been trying to lock her down to her side of the Scrog but she keeps trying to take over. I’m gonna need a bigger boat... err.. tent.
@Jaindoh, yea man, I can’t imagine going another week in veg like I previously thought. Going to drain the res and fill it up with some flower nutes tomorrow and start the 12/12.
