For reference I’ve messed up the time line if anyone is checking out the picture in reference to their grow. And for future me looking back ( hello 👍🏻 ) when I use this to grow the remaining three Royal Dwarf seeds. The two seeds in this diary were moved to soil on the 2nd July after a three day germination period. Today - Saturday July 18th is their 2nd week in soil - grow tent. This diary entry it will be week 3 but it’s actually only the end of week 2.......... day 17 in soil clear Good 😂 A mixed week this week. As this is my fist grow I’m learning loads and still reviewing lots of data, YouTube videos etc to understand the art. I have two plants. Plant 1 is really beefing up and plant 2 is a much smaller and having some issues. I don’t know which one is normal ? Is 1 super big and 2 normal or is 1 normal and 2 small? Plant 2 started the week with slight discoloured tips to two leaves. This progressed to slight yellowing so I assumed the light was too low and raised it by 10cm. After two days the yellowing continued so I thought it might be a nitrogen deficiency and added some coffee grinds to the first couple of inches of soil. Only time will tell if this works, but the tent smells nice 👍🏻 Temp and humidity My tent was hovering around 30c so I have opened it up to reduce this to 27c. Humidity is a concern as I live in a humid place by the sea so RH is usually around 80. I’ve ordered a small dehumidifier which I’ll hang in the tent during the grow and drying period. I think this is the right move given what I’ve revised over the past week. I did think about ditching plant 2 and starting again but I’ve decided to continue and see what happens. After all, this is a learning period and it can’t be perfect all the time. It could even be the seed given they are two seeds grown in the same conditions etc. That’s it. Day 17 👍🏻

Привет, бро! 👋😇 Ты уже можешь начинать её тренировать, друг! Гни главный ствол в сторону края горшка, направляй верхушку в горизонтальную плоскость! Когда будут отрастать её ветки, растягивай их в противоположные стороны краёв горшка и фиксируй их на краю горшка! вот ссылка на мой дневник: growdiaries.com/diaries/60402-delicious-seeds-delicious-candy-grow-journal-by-bloombuster/week/310123 зайди в 5 неделю и посмотри 3 фото, это пример того, как тебе необходимо растягивать её ветки! Но в этом дневнике для основного ствола я применял технику HST supercrop! Обрати внимание только на ветки, куда я их направляю и как они зафиксированы! Ты можешь просмотреть мой прогресс далее в неделях и убедиться в эффективности моего решения! 😇👌 Удачи, брат! ✊😇

Day 24 and yellow / brown leaf tips. I wrote a full overview in my diary entry this week. Plant had yellow lower leaf tips from week 2. Added coffee for nitrogen. Tent temp hit 33c due to fan issue and plant had yellow-brown but other plant is fine. What’s up with it ?

Hey bro. I imagine you were watering with a little bit of a high ph at first? Reason for the yellowing leafs. If it were me, I would be watering to runoff now every time you water. Check your first bit of water to see were your ph is at., also check your ec see where thats at. I always keep an eye on runoff ph and ec to make sure that its in check. Makes a smoothe grow. Make sure to let the top dry down and inch between waterings now as well. Cheers friend

Hi all. I’m confused. My soil is 6.5 and my water is 6.5 but the run off is in the 4s. The plants aren’t liking this so what’s going on? My feed is easy boost by RWS, you mix with the soil and it feeds for the duration. Any ideas where this could be going wrong? Thanks

Hello friend Some ingredients will raise your soil ph like dolomite lime, some will lower your soil ph like sulfur products so if that top dressing nutrients has any of those ph lowering elements you may want to counteract them with a dolomite lime to raise the ph slightly.

Can, should I defoliate the plant to allow light to the lower buds. It’s day 52 so not sure if this will hinder bud development. I’ve already LSTed the branches out as much as I can and tucked as many leaves as possible. Thanks 😊

Hi all. In the last 48 hours there has been a few lower leaves which have lightened in colour to a yellow. The whole leaf has changed at the same time so I’m not sure if this is an indication of an issue or if the leaves are being drained before the final ripening. Thanks 😊

After a certain point into flower.. It's like she won't put energy into leaves.. She is trying to put mass on.. Using some of available nitrogen in the foliage.. She looks balanced and healthy.. Add more bloom nutes won't change the colour of the foliage..

I have read that some growers give their plants 24-48 darkness before harvest. Is this BS or good practice ?

On last crop I’ve took a sample before 48h darkness and to be honest I could see a difference. If you are not rushing it’s a good thing to try. As well those two days in total dark will force your plant to still use some reserves of “food” from leafs and that will slightly help with drying later on giving you nice smooth smoke

Looking for a good budget light for a 4x4 grow. The Voost VST240 looks like a fantastic spec but no real information out there that I can find. Any users? Also considering a Migrow Array when the bigger version hits the market.

I can vouch for the Mars Hydro quantum boards the TS-3000 or whatever 3000 they have now will do the job Or go multiples with two 2000s for more flexibility in particular in veg But they are Chinese but then what aint?

Nice yield mate! I am a week off of harvesting my dwarf and my target is to get 15g. First time grow so just learning like you!

I took a peak to your previous weeks, it seems you have been regularly over watering (even now), which has kept the plant from taking off. It has signs of over feeding too. Stop feeding that plant and let the pot dry up before watering again,
Onandon
Onandon
@@Athos,sorry, one last thing. Were you looking at plant 1 or plant 2 Plant 1 is the bigger and plant 2 the stumpy guy? Plant 2 gets only around 500ml of water every 2 to 3 days or whenever it’s dry. Thanks
Onandon
Onandon
@@Athos, noted. I’ll reduce that volume and see what if anything changes. It’s my 1st grow so I appreciate the input from someone with experience

@Onandon, 1 liter every 24 hours is a lot of water for a plant that size

Duuuuuuuudeeee. This diary has me rolling. From your first entry of "leave well enough alone" to the lego people inserted in the pics you had me hooked. So happy to see another first time grower and I'm glad you're learning so much! My first grow is also Royal Dwarf and I've learned so much from your entries. Thanks for that! Hopefully you've saved me some mistakes. Looking forward to seeing your harvest and happy growing mate.

@ADHD2THC, hey man, I’m glad it’s helpful and entertaining. I wanted to write it in a way that it recorded everything and I can go back when I grow my remaining Dwarf seeds. I harvested the bigger guy this week so this diary is nearly complete. I’m blown away by how much the plant produced given it was only 35 cm high. I think mistakes are important if you really want to learn how to do something - unless its making a nuclear warhead 😂 Enjoy the journey and reach out if I can help in anyway

@ADHD2THC, cheers man 👍🏻 I wrote it so I can hopefully help people but also so I can look back and see what I did and didn’t do. I harvested the bigger plant this week and for a 35cm tall plant I’m surprised at the mount it produced. Spoiler - over 300grams wet.
