They are finally flowering and in hopes of big buds!! Still not using traditional nutrients. Using Organic Stepwell Soil Bloom Top Dressing and EM1 (Essential Microbes) to help with bud production. Water is PH balance between 6 - 6.4%. Stronger smells from the tent ventilation on max, lots of negative pressure. Everything is green healthy smelling great.
One thing I have not mentioned is that when I water I do have small amounts of flow through. Too much flow through with Super Soil will only deplete your nutrient levels but you need to keep the bottom of the pot wet so a little flow through is good.
Some bottom leaves have turned yellow and I noticed yellow blotches in the overall plant. This signifies Nitrogen deficiency so I am giving it some Flora System with CaliMagic to rebuild the nutrient levels up and help with buds. Regular watering with nutrients now until harvest.
@growking123, You’ll have some good buds to smoke on for quite a bit until your GG and Bruce Banner are finished! I’ve heard Bruce Banner is a heavy yielding strain so I’m sure your next batch will be in the 3/4lb-1lb range! I’m hoping to get at least 3oz from my plants, we will see though!
Btw, I’d definitely enter this diary into Newbie of the month or Grower of the month. You’ve got a nice diary and you definitely have a chance of winning the contest! (Diamond cut co, is one of the sponsors!) I just bought and received their scissors in the mail and they are nice as hell!!
@FreshCoastOrganics, It was time, they were ready. 7.88 Ounces from 4 plants in 12 weeks. I'm very happy!! Smoke is great, smooth. Good luck with your yield and your right about the yield counts. Next grow which I'm starting this week will be bigger!! Using 2 Gorilla Glue Auto and 2 Bruce Banner Auto.
@growking123, Looks like you beat me to the chop!! My girls are still barely showing ambers but they’re fading like crazy so I’m keeping a close eye on them.
Also, the advertised weights are always a rough guestimate. Usually the lowest applies soil, mid range applies to soiless hydroponic mediums and the largest yield will typically come from DWC hydro! There are some people who have harvested 5oz from one plant of this strain in deep water culture. Unfortunately soil only gives so much room for roots to expand. One upside though is soil grown bud always tastes better than hydro, just keep that in mind!!
Hey there. Good looking grow! I am starting my first grow using White Widow Auto as well and just started my journal.
Feel free to comment and make suggestions ;-). I'll keep following, looks great!
