Done a lot of defoliating to open up budsites to more light and in hindsight i might been to trigger happy as i defoliated then 2-3 times in the same week.
Planted 7 fertilizing spikes in each pot. theyre spupposed to last 6 weeks.
Theyve recovered from the heavy defoliation last week. Think ill avoid further defoliation as ive only found mixed opinions of it.
Day 31: trained them some more arnthey were sticking out the pot on one side. Tucked away some leaves as well.
Day 34: added some coffeground to the soil and tucked away some more leaves. Tied down some more brancjes as well that were sticking way outside the pot. Im afraid the smaller one is stunted as it hasnt grown in weeks. It did sprout 2 days after the other one as i had buried the seed too deep.
Dont assume it's a deficiency until you have checked your runoff ph and ec levels to see what's going on. Way high ec, lockout. Ph out of whack then elements arent available. Low ec and ph ok, then its a defficiency. Cheers friend
havent had time to update the diary with specifics lately. I decided on monday 07.09 to take out the fertilizer sticks because i belive it to be the cause of the deficiency/lockout issues. Ended up damaging the top roots in the process though. Defoliated the dead and some of the damaged leves as well. Gave them 4-5 rounds of flush to properly empty the soil of the neutrients from the sticks.
Anyways, learned my lesson and ordered a ph meter and biobizz nutes. still looking for an affordable ec penn.
Fixed the airflow last week after noticing my exhaust fan (200mm pc fan) was mounted wro g so it was pulling air in instead. Im sure that was the reasen for the leaves curling. Theyre beginning to show trichs and the smell is Lovely - sweet and fruity.
11.09 gave them some 500ml banana peel tea mixed with 500ml water each.
Pots were still heavy when i checked them on wednesday 16.09. Last watering was on friday 11.09 so i unhooked the wires and took out the plants from the pots. The soil was proper moist from bottom and up to 5 cm from the top. When checking for moisture with my fingers prior i noticed the soil was slimy. The soil had the same slimyness out of the pot as well.the roots on the bottom looked fine though. I also noticed small White worms creeping around. I decided to flush the plants again in horror. Ill add more lecaballs to the soil next time as people have told me it could be becaue of bad drenation. Also removed dead leaves for better light penetration.
