Hey guys & gals
So I’ve scraped through to the end of week 7! 😉
I’ve really struggled with temps and humidity so I have a dehumidifier and heater coming tomorrow. Also ordered an oscillating monkey fan to help with air flow.
The Pineapple Express and Jack Diesel are doing really well and almost doubled in size in just a week! Have developed flowers everywhere and now in full flower. I think they may be a bit behind and may take a few more weeks but hey ho it’s my first grow.
The Jack Diesel that is a day behind hasn’t been doing so great 😔she has always been the smallest but went into flower a lot sooner than the other 2. On day 44 she was droopy and looking blue. I did some research and thought it may be a phosphorus deficiency. I mixed up some nutes and watered til I got run off, the water had an eggy smell so again researched and thought it may be root rot. I flushed this lil girl and then gave a small dose of ph’d water and nutes.
Left her to dry out for a few days and she perked right up. I had a lil dig about to see how the roots were and they’ve were all a milky white colour. Even the roots popping through the bag are white. Her leaves are praying up to the lights as we speak so I’m gunna let her do her thing til the end.
Have got some PK booster coming so will introduce to my girls soon.
Catch you all laters 👋🌱☝️
Looks like you are off to a great start to me. I overwatered my first few plants too. Catch it early on, like you did, and everything should be fine. I’m growing autos also and have been giving nutes at half strength once per week. Mid week waterings are water only. Good luck and have fun! 👍🌱
First grows are scary, but exciting! Luckily, you're doing VERY well! Very happy plants! Liked and followed!
Don't worry about their time estimate, it seems to be the absolute best estimate for the best, most powerful lights. I haven't had any brands of auto -- most of which claiming like 9 weeks or something, in less than 14-16.
I do train, but at the same time most auto diaries I see are longer as well. It fits with how photoperiod strains' flowering periods are advertised as super short as well.
If you have any questions, let us know =)
