Smart pot i will use 19 liters
Coco 70% Perlite 30% as soil.
Growtent 80x80x180 .
vegetation light's 1 x Quantum boards 135 W
Flowering light's 2 x Quantum boards 135 W
not much to say.
3 are going good and one is staying behind with the grow he had very small leaves so he can't take up much light.
i'm vegging under a QB 135 W and when my auto ultimate is finished they can move to the tent.
3 are going good! 1 is very slow and not growing so i put a blueberry next to her and i think i will take her away.
so there will be 3 cinderella jack's but i will wait for a while to see if she will catch up
well since my Auto ultimate is finally finished after 21 weeks the other plant could move to the tent to grow further under my new Led Light 2 x Quantum Boards 135W
2 plants are doing well 1 is a little less and the one little plant is like a midget. you can see 2 plant in this container because it was so small i just put in a Auto BlueBerry seed next to him because they are done quicker. and i'm waiting to see which one i will keep growing or if they stay so small maybe i will let them both grow.
not much more to say for the moment. i'm thinking of going for a grow without training . the only thing i will do is 3 weeks into bloom i will do bud swelling technique on every bud because i saw on the last grow it made a difference and gave bigger buds.
hey all,
the grow is going good 3 are growing heads up and one has stayed behind from the beginning of the grow.
that's why after 9 days i put an auto blueberry next to her to have a backup !
now there the same size and i'm thinking of cutting the little cinderella and let the Blueberry grow on.
hey all,
everything is going well the cinderella jack are starting to show signs of bloom. so i am going to change the feeding schedule to blooming fase but just have some feeding issue before . i bought a new kind of Coco and i did not feed the plant much but the new Leaves had a little tip burn.but as you can see plant 3 does not have the tip burns. that was the pot with leftover of other brand of coco . so i gave them plain water from time to time . but now i know what the problem is the new coco brand is with feeding inside for 6 to 8 weeks . so i have to keep that in mind for the feeding schedule and did not see it before. so today i'm going to give her plain water and look at the plant if they get better the new feeding schedule as above will begin.
the plant are a little bit of trouble! the watering is hard to control the leaves start to hang down and the end of the day but they are not dry.
did not water them and go to work and when i checked them 8 hours after they where looking good. but it's a new kind of coco and i'm having trouble with it.
was coco with feeding inside for 7 / 8 weeks so i go very easy on the feeding and gave them plane water from time to time.
the lights are so bright that i thought they where very pale leaves like a big deficiency but when i cut the lights and make a photo with camera with flash they look more healthy.
but there is a beginning of white coloring inside the leaves so i gave them more Call mag because it looks like they need more magnesium.
or am i wrong?
hey all,
it's seems like i suffer a little deficiency.
i'm guessing Cal mag but maybe it could be nitrogen also so i put more pH Perfect Sensi Coco Bloom A into the feeding.
to rase the level of it and see if it gets better. the leaves are looking a little pale i also raised the light it could be that it's to close.
i'm not used to this light but from 45 cm the Par reading should be around a 1000 so maybe it's also making the leaves a little pale.
we will see what happens. the are growing good and developing multiple buds.
ok take a look at the plants! number one has curled up leaves and the leaves look smaller then the other plants.
and the nerves are a little pale color on all the plants. any advice?
is it Cal mag ? Nitrogen? heat stress , water stress ,wind stress
Hi friend! Curling up can happen due to heat stress, high humidity levels or root problems, like over watering them. Nitrogen deficiency makes the plant look pale, lime green. Try to find some lower leaves that look too yellow and try to pull them off, if it's hard to pull off, no nitrogen deficiency, because leaves use to fall for their own when it happens. They should not look pale or lime green, when it happens plants use to have some problem and they grow slow. Like you have said, numer 1 is growing slow than others, so yes, maybe you got some nitrogen deficiency bro. It maybe could be some iron problems, but I dont think so.. but check for yellow new leaves too. Iron just affect the new growth. Like you said you have raised the light, try to raise the nutrients too, maybe they just have used up all the soil nutrition and need some more now. Happy grow!
yesterday did some defoliation !
damn this cinderella jack is some bushy plan! so many leaves and i maybe cut of like 200 leaves from the 4 plant and they still it's looks so bushy.
also pinched the tops of all my buds for the Budswelling but i forgot to make a video of it.
but i will post the video from my last diary again just to show you what i did with the bud's for this budswelling if you look close to the pictures and zoom in you can see that all my buds have a little brown spot in the middle. that's where i pinched the buds yesterday and is the wound of doing this.
but don't be afraid she will recover soon and produce some big fat compact buds with lot's of trichomes !
it worked on my last grow the auto ultimate to get some fat buds so i will be doing this all the time.
everything is going well.
but it's a really bushy plant i don't know how many leaves i cut of but damn it's to much leaves for me.
hope the trouble will be worth it and she delivers some great weed.
stopped with big bud coco today and started to give her overdrive to begin swelling those buds.
looks like they are going to deliver good . we will see how they are going to react on the overdrive to begin swelling :-)
Cheers
the buds are getting bigger and bigger .
looks like it's going to be a decent yield.
i'm going to be harvesting end of the 12th so i will leave her for another 10 days to ripen and then she will be cut down and trimmed.
the next post will be when i harvest because i'm out of town next week but my wife will take care of them when i'm gone.
ok this is the last update.
4 days ago started flawless finish to clean everything and get rid off all the nutrients .
i have been away for 8 days so my wife took care of the plants and they fattened up very good.
think one of the days i will cut it and trim but just waiting on the right time still not all the trichomes are milkey lot's of them are still transparant so need to have some more day's.
looks like a promising harvest.
still not white enough to much clear trichomes so i'm letting her ripen a little more.
should be a matter of days before i cut her. the leaves are turning yellow with no nutes anymore and just suck out all the energy from the leaves .
the next update will be the harvest. Cheers
well i have to tell you this will be my best yield ever!
the buds are rock hard and i was shocked to get so much wet weight from 4 plant under 270W light in a grow room 80x80x180 !!
the total wet weight from 4 plants is 2265 gr of wet buds.
i'm really amazed by the result and what is the reason for this? maybe the new Quantum Board lights? maybe the Advance nutrient? is it the Bud swelling Technique? or good genetics?
well i'm guessing all combined made this to be my best harvest yet!
i'm really seeing an big influence in buds getting bigger and rock hard since i started with the bud swelling.
when i look at my previous diary of Glueberry and Girl sCout Cookies i did not use bud swelling and started with the technique when i grew the auto Ultimate i can see a difference in gaining weight and also the buds getting bigger and harder. so i will be using this technique the rest of my growing days :-)
well i will give you an update of the Dry weight when it is dry enough to put it in de jar to cure!
i'm guessing around 400/500 Gr dry weight . my best harvest ever and using smaller space now :-)
i'm really happy and did not expected such a big harvest as you can see i had to improvise to get it all dry since i had to find space outside my drying rack because it's full.
update in about a week till 10 days when it's dry!
Cheers
UPDATE!!!
Well after 8 days of drying i put the weed into jars for curing!!
the total weight of dry weed from 4 plants is 433 gr i'm very pleased with the result.
this is my best harvest since i started growing : 1:
so according to my calculations if you devide 433 gr by Watts used to my 270W light i should have done 1,6 Gram/Watt 😁
extremely happy and the buds looks very shiny from frost and are very dense 0
@emerald,hey No they don't turn milkey after flushing! they turn milkey because they are ready and there time has come to harvest.
you just need to check your plant and then gamble a little when you are going to flush it.
and when you think it's nearly ready just give plain water for 1 week or more and then harvest.
@Bluesbreeder, I follow this grow :) but ı wanna say,
your medium is soilness (light mix or e.tc) but your main fertilizers are coco series. it isnt matter ?
@emerald,it's liters ! i don't know what went wrong! i corrected it in diary.
don't know when the harvest is depends on the trichomes. normally in 4 weeks!
@BigDaddyK, i'm guessing they are both very good ! i did some research on internet and for the space i have the QB's was personally better for me. but i was going to buy Cob's but then i ran into Quantum boards . You can use cobs with lenses and they have excellent results but i'm in a small room and the distance from cob to plant would have become an issue ! the QB's can get closer to the plants before burning them.
that was my conclusion from the research that's why i went for QB's and was fortunate that they where in stock at that point.
@ExtaciPT,thanks was my best grow in weight. i run the QB's for 20/4 it hink this is the best . the plants get 4 hours of darkness and the lights can rest for a while also.
@soxfan890,well when i started out i bought the drying racks it just looked more easy to me at the time.
and personally i think it works better for me to dry it this way.
i also cut the big buds into smaller pieces just to reduce the risk of mold when drying so when you hang them you can't do that.
just my thoughts about it 👍
Hi , I would let both blueberry and cindy in the same pot, just to see how it's gonna turn. But it should low you yield on that pot . Nice grow till now !
