First grow so still ironing out a lot of issues with the setup. No pH or PPM meter and using coco so bad start. Also, tacking heat / cooling issue in the environment, too hot for an Indica. Major lack of logging data so something to get better at.

Slow growth over the last two weeks, possibly a major salt buildup in the coco as I didn't rinse before planting flushed anyway. Either that or it's still far to hot and dry causing excess nutrient uptake. Bought a cheap pH meter and was feeding badly pH balanced and high PPM feeds unknowingly. From day 29ish, new pH and TDS meter and heat has been tackled some. From here the plant bloomed back to life! Knowing it'll yield low, I decided to LST to get as many colas as possible.

Secondary branches growing well though lacking in height. Raised the light some to help promote upward growth. Noticed a little leaf burn after increasing to 600ppm so backed off the nutrients a little to 550.

First pistils came through this week! Switched the 'bloom' switch on the light to double LED count and add the red to the spectrum. Defoliated lower growth again on day 45 before noticing the pistil 48 hours later. Spotted a nutrient burn, and that I haven't been watering until enough runoff so possible nute/salt buildup? I also realised the plant was drooping before feeding so going to increase feed volume to keep the coco more moist. A nice amount of main colas considering her rough childhood. Fed no nutrients from day 47-49, just feeding 5.8pH water to reduce salt content. Water was 60PPM at 5.8pH and after 8L still got 500PPM runoff. Definitely need to change feeding method. Thanks for the tips to those who answered!

My Super OG Kush auto hasn't shown signs of flowering at 7 weeks even though the 'harvest time' stated 7-9 weeks. I know this figure should be taken with a pinch of salt but is this abnormal? Thanks!

Hey, According to the breeder pyramid seeds, these genetics will require 10-11 weeks to flower. Looking at your plant, it’s about 7 weeks in on the diary, but I’d say you probably have another 6 weeks of flower ahead of you. Keep in mind some breeders may state their genetics will be done flower a week or so earlier than they typically would, just to sort of help promote their product. Hope this helps, but not to worry. The plant looks healthy and you should see bud production in the coming weeks.

When's the best time to flip the 'bloom' switch on my LED with an auto? Should it be at the first sign of pistils or is there a better time to do so? I have already flipped the switch for this plant and kept photo-period the same, looking for info for next grow. Thanks!

What's the 'best' method for runoff? I've noticed my plant has a nutrient burn and realised I've not been watering until runoff enough which I think might have caused a build-up. Either that or the plant is perspiring more than necessary causing excess uptake. Thanks!

Heya lxnay, I see you are using coco so I would flush with a low ppm water w/calmag at correct pH. I would water twice the amount as usual then test the run off water and see if it is the same as what you are putting in. If it isn't, keep watering until it is and then continue watering as normal. I would also recommend some perlite next grow, it allows more more aeration and drainage. I find it really helps with root growth on the plants. Most people I know do a 60/40 mix of coco/perlite. I personally love the opposite with 60/40 perlite/coco. Good luck with the grow! Cheers,

Pistils showing up everywhere this week, few new smaller colas and some more upward growth! Definitely suffered a little time through flushing but starting to pick back up again. Temperatures hitting 31°c sometimes, actual average is closer to 28..

Drinking between 2 and 3 litres daily. Lots of upward growth, and new bud sites everywhere! Reaching temperatures of over 30°c some days but handling it well. Some 'nights' for the plants (which is actually daytime) sitting at 28°c as i can't do anything about getting the temperatures down enough. Defoliating to help humidity and to get light to growth under the canopy. Not cutting off lower growth to learn how well the light penetrates for future grows.

Started this week with a DIY trellis net that has really opened the canopy, now covering almost 80% of the tents foot print with colas! Some real nice smells while twisting and bending the branches to shape the net. In super soft water area (40ppm) so adding cal/mag to water to bring ppm up to 100ish.

Had one dry day this week as I (rightly or wrongly) reduced feed to battle some high humidity weve been having. Dont think my 22 year old dehum is quite up to the job.. Super citrusy smells coming through this week. Shes completely overtaken the tent and need to find a new home for my month old though I dont want to take away any light at this crucial stage so in a predicament with that.

Couldn't help but take lots of photos this week.. Nuggets are really starting to fill out and the white hairs are beginning to brown. Lots of new trichomes without heads and a few have turned milky. Thought this would be done by now and I really need the space for my other girl thats currently stretching due to lack of light. Considering that and also not wanting to harvest prematurely, I'm trying to decide when to start the 7-14 day flushing period, any advice would be HUGELY appreciated. Thanks for stopping by 😎

Halfed the nutrients this week as shes eating less (know this by the nutrient burn) hopefully telling me she in a last stage of flowering. Most of the pistil hairs have gone orange and died back into the nuggets. Looking super OG at the minute. 😁 Not alot of photos this week because, in honesty, its been annoying me how long shes taken so i've not spent alot of time with her..

Started to flush on day 96. Still lots of clear trichomes but I have little choice.. Coco is high in EC right now so it's probably going to take more than a week to flush anyway. Probably about 0.75:1 clear to milky so hopefully should be at the early end of the harvest window when the day of massacre comes. Will get some microscope shots for this week later on! Flushing with Boost & Cannazym in pH'd water for the first few days then finish with straight water.

100 day anniversary this week 😬 All flushing this week, stopped using Canna BOOST and Cannazym on day 101.. PPM started high and came down slowly so took more than a week to flush, lucky as there are still a solid percentage of clear trichs. Showing signs of mad deficiencies so its almost time. Looking super frosty, the pictures dont do any justice. More than impressed with my first grow in a proper setup!

Big patch of mould on one of the monster colas 😬 No water and no light for the last few days though im thinking of chopping it down tonight. Concerned about the mould spreading and destroying months work.. On a plus note, its thicc af and starting to get sone darker hues to it possibly from all the final stress.

Found mould today after 24hr darkness, ive chopped the affected part but worried about it. How will be the best way to cut and dry this lowering my risks of more mould? Whats up with the white hollow stem? How much around the area should I bin? I dont want to waste Thanks!

Hey! You need to do a full inspection. Anything that was close to that mold needs to be binned. Better safe than sorry. Than stuff can be really toxic. When drying you need fresh air flow, 21C and 50% RH to prevent mold. Add a dehumidifier in the room if you need to and fans facing the walls so if there isn’t any airflow. Not directly facing the buds. Hope this helped. Good luck and happy harvest.

Cut down on day 110, after 30 hours of darkness.. Added ice blocks to the substrate over the last couple days and got some lovely red and purple notes from it... Found one more spot of mould in a main cola, total loss of 40 grams of wet flower. Not a huge problem seeing as I still have colas the size of my forearm. Half wet trimmed on the large colas to reduce risk of mould, left less dense and smaller nugs with most leaves on to aid a slow dry. Hung in as little light possible in ~19°c at ~55%RH with filtered air from outside and extract system, dehumidifier circulating air in the room. Air refresh rate is ~90 seconds.

Day 5 of dry and nugs are starting to crunch though stems dont crack yet. I've lost the dank, unless touched, and it smells of what i'm guessing is clorophyll How long does this last for or have I done something wrong? Temp 19°c on average +-2°c and RH is 55% +-1%. Thanks😎

it goes away... as long as it doesn't dry in 72 hours or less, the hay or green taste should go away. Each seed can be a bit different. 14-21 days of curing after it is done drying? maybe 28 + drying time? Humidity is great for avoiding microbes, and temp isn't too high. You are fine.

Extremely surprised, yet delighted, by the yield. 😎 Really happy with my first grow. Shame about the mould, it would have been great to set the bar for my first grow and get 1g/Watt but I'm definitely not complaining at the outcome! Some really nice purple notes from the last couple days of life. Dried after 7 days hanging in 19°c (+-2°c) at 55%RH (+-1%). Could have done a better job with the trimming, really could do with a sharper pair of scissors.. Thanks for stopping in and checking out my diary.. 👌🏿
