Sept. 28 day 59 and the girls received their last watering with Flawless Finish. Straight water only from here on in. Trichomes are half clear and half milky white and the buds are getting harder and heavier each day and now are leanIng big-time. Let’s hope these buds will hang in there for at least one more week.
Sept. 29 day 60 we got 10 mm of rain overnight. They weren’t calling for that much rain so I didn’t cover my plants however it did fill my rain barrels, that’s the good news. Bad news was when I got out there this morning, of course all the girls were super wet and sadly bowing to their leader.
Thought to myself “aaaahhhh!!! I’m not worthy” and then quickly began the not so fun task of shaking the water off each cola hoping the girls will dry out throughout the day. 🤞
Sept.30 day 61 flushed the outside girls with 25 gallons of R/O water at 6.7 pH.
Thunderstorms also came through in the afternoon dropping another 7 mm of rain
Oct.1 day 62 and more early evening rain and temps have dropped significantly. Not helping to combat the powdery mildew. The buds are also wet and very heavy but so far no bud rot🤞 On the bright side, there was a beautiful harvest moon overnight even though we are still a little ways away from harvest. The 4 pot girls have been moved into the garage during the evenings due to temperature and morning dew. The other three girls are going to have to brave it out and stay strong 💪🏼 🤞
Oct.2 day 63 morning temperature was 6°C or 43°F burrrrrrr. Tomorrow it’s supposed to get down to 3°C or 38°F Damn frigid.
To my surprise the trichomes on Godfather OG #1 have all turned milky white with the odd amber head here and there. That was a quick change over from half clear and milky only few days ago. Happy to announce that at 8 AM godfather OG was chopped. Yahoo!!! She gave me over 40 big fat Kolas of smokable flower and approx. 2 lbs of fresh frozen that will be processed into water hash and finally heat pressed to make live Rosin. The tastiest shit ever! BTW it’s been raining all fucking day.
Oct.3 day 64 watered all potted girls with 3 gallons of rainwater each at 6.5 pH. Started to rain again early evening so the girls were brought back into the garage.
Oct.4 day 65 more damn rain! All day in fact. Can’t seem to catch a break. I guess girls will have to remain in the garage until tomorrow.
Oh well...till next time
Thanks for stopping bye
See ya and stay safe
If it starts from the bottom up it’s a calcium deficiency, if it starts from the top she needs more water! ( from my experience of course) hope this helps friend & happy growing!✌️🏼🌱
Those are some nice trees! Are you using RO water? Just wondering if what you're experiencing may be due to toxicity rather than deficiency. Just a hunch, but if you don't have a lot of coco in your soil mix and not using RO water, it may be too much cal mag. Also, if there's an excess of potassium, this can cause cal/mag lockout. Not sure if any of these may be factors. Are you checking pH and EC/PPM? I'd use the power of deduction and try to rule out all possibilities before making any major adjustments. Good luck and happy growing!
@Peeman, Happy to help in any way I can. Not sure how much I helped in this case, but I find that sometimes I am more helpful asking questions that making suggestions. I am still learning and I will be watching to see what your findings are. Hoping to learn a thing or two for myself! Good luck and happy growin'!
@FoTwenny, hi there and thanks so much for your reply.
I am using R/O water and growing in Foxfarm ocean forest soil with a little extra perlite. PH is usually between 6.2 and 6.4 and I calibrate it twice a month. Last PPMs may have been a little high at 1350 but that number is still lower than the manufacturers feeding chart. I’m using future harvest full line at just under full strength. Thanks again for your knowledge. I’ll try my best to get her back on course. Cheers
Beautiful grow and your home looks beautiful as well I’m going to do The Godfather og next I’ll be following along to see how it goes I really like your growing stile you have some big plants I no Ontario has a short grow window really great grow buddy nice work
Happy growing and good luck with the rest of your grow
Thanks @simps, I just harvested some indoor Godfather OG a couple of weeks ago and it's FIRE. You're gonna love it
Good look with your grow and all the best👊
Thanks @ChitownCannaChica, You can always try to grow autos outdoors as they stay relatively small and you can bring them indoor at night. cheers and all the best
