Seeds were sown on 31/08, some pots are 20l and some are 30l. One of my gelatos failed to crop up after I planted it in the pot, luckily I have a few spares. I'm really looking forward to growing the green crack. It isn't super common here in the uk
The gelato I thought wouldn't sprout just came upnout if nowhere about 5 days after everything else, really caught me by surprise.that brings me to 6 plants now, 3 x gelato auto and 3 green crack auto. I'm pretty happy with how they are growing,one of the gelatos has a small bit of nuts burn,haven't flushes it yet as it is very slight, may need to soon though,I'm watching it very closely. Temps are very hot here in the UK atm
Just started doing some LST on the bigger plants,hope they respond well to it,plants look a little thirsty in photos ,was working away so was a day late with my feed
Hi I've notices my leaves turning yellow on some of my plants not sure why, growing in coco and the fabric pots feel a bit heavy ,really noticeable in the past week or two
Worst offenders are my green crack older plants
The pot should start feeling light at some point, which leads me to say your problem is overwatering. You have to let plant dry out or wait until the pot is light before you water to prevent this from happening again. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.
Hey there MossyMan, Looks like you have lockout or pH issue due to the Rhiz, it will raise your pH quite a bit and when that happens the plant suffer, in coco. you need to get pH down and slowly reduce the pH to 5.7 ... right now i guess it's 6.8 or 7... maybe even more, hope this helps ! 🚀
Had a really bad week just gone,all of.my plants are suffering, not sire where I went wrong to be honest but definitely looks like they were suffering from nutrient lockout so I've flushed all of the plants with phed water of 5.7, I sure do hope they make a recovery
Hi guys, I just flushed my 6 plants with plain phed water of 5.7 to try and combat what looks like nutrient lockout. Should I give half strength or full strength feed once the pots dry out a bit? I read somewhere that I should wait until the top inch is dry before watering them
I don’t think you have a nute burn I actually think you arent feeding enough from your diary.
See how the flush turns out, also your ph is too high for coco in veg, you wanna be somewhere around 5.8-5.9 ph, check your ph pen as well, make sure it’s calibrated
Wait a little before re water them to avoid overwatering ✌️🏽Then give them half strenght nuts, but if u have nutrient lockout due to overfert give less than 1/2 like 1/3 or 1/4 , the half of the real dose they need 😊💪🏼
Flushed all of my plants last week, seems like there has been a decent response, I can see pisrils nownon two of the largest green crack plants so I will be switching to flowering nutrients this week coming.
Really hoping my plants come good now
Plants are starting to make a comeback,switched all 6 plants to bloom nutrients,monitoring carefully for overwatering,not really enjoying these gelatos,massive size difference between than and the green crack,hope they all yield something half decent ,started using big bud coco as well,giving them 1.6ml per l, my ec of my nutrients is up near 4000 which is too strong I know but am following manufacturers guidelines so not sure whether to weaken the solution by adding more water or leaving it as is ensuring the plants are getting what they need,any advice would be appreciated from all you experts out there
Happy growing guys
Hi guys,
I currently have 6 AUTOFLOWER plants in a 4x4 tent with 600hps,I am thinking of putting two of the smaller plants into my 3x3 tent which has a 400w HP's bulb,plants have between 5 and 7 weeks to go,is it too late to do this?would they get stressed with different light?
The question u should be asking urself is, does the sun change its intensity throughout the day?
Yes it does.
So, unless ur switching from indoors to outdoors, or from led to hid, then its safe, the plant will just see it as a reduction in intensity so be sure to place them closer to the light in order to maintain the nearest possible value to the previous par levels.
Plants seem to be doing reasonably well,again the green crack is leading the charge with two of them well out in front of everything else,I don't really know how two of the gelatos will yield but will just have to wait and see,keeping my dehumidifier set at 50%,need to olunb a hose for it as its raining quite a bit here in the UK so I'm emptying it constantly.
Happy growing guys
One of my gelatos isn't doing well and I don't think it will yield much at all,hope in wrong.
The bushy gelato still hasn't popped up any pistils yet but looks like it will turn into a good plant.
One of the green cracks is absolutely flying it,could be a monster, I don't like to try and guess weights until closer to the chop date but could be a 8 ouncer.
Some pistils just starting to turn orange so will probably shift to big bud overdrive next week for 2-3 of my plants.
Happy growing lads!
Just introduced overdrive to 3 of my plants,2 of the green crack and 1 gelato look to have about 3 weeks left,pistils are started to turn orange,I'm hoping they start packing on the bud hard over the next couple of weeks
Hi folks,I had to decrease the overdrive from 1.6ml per l to 1.2ml per litre as one of my plants sugar leaves look like its suffering from nuts burn,I would have expected more of the pistils to be amber orange by now but looks like there is still a few weeks to go but its getting there
Plants are really getting there now and 4 of them have almost finished their 14 days of overdrive, just started the 2 slowest ones on overdrive, should be flushing 2 of the plants next week I reckon. 2 of my gelato autos don't look like they will give me much but 1 of them may be a good yielder ,will just have to wait and see,happy growing folks.
Hi folks ,I cut down 4 of my 6 plants,got 92g from one of my green cracks,I'm reasonably happy with that,one of my gelato s turned purple during flush, will be interesting to see what the buds look like after they cure.
Only 2 plants left in the grow tent and I think they will be my two biggest yielders.
One of my green cracks started to foxtail so I cut it down.
This is the second time ive done full 24 hrs of light with autoflowers and the same thing stated to happen towards the end of the plants life cycle the buds started to foxtail on the slowest finishing plants,I think I'll go back to 20-4 for next grow.
Still down to 2 plants in the tent ,I have one of my green crack plants hanging at the moment. I reckon another couple of days and it can go into the jars,I reckon there is between 4 and 4.5 ounces on it but will have to wait and see.
Hi folks,I got 126g off of my second green crack plant and 53g from one of my gelatos,
The gelato is top quality bud and there is a very strong high off of it.
I reckon the last of my green crack has 2 weeks to go,I will watch carefully to see idnthe buds start to foxtail.
Hi folks,I ran out of terpinator and it seems like my last two plants are finishing way quicker,I don't knownif it is coincidence or what the story is.
I chopped down the last remaining green crack,I reckon I've got somewhere between 8 and 9 ounces on it ,I'll have a final summary next week
My last gelato is looking really good,I hate yo speculate but I'm thinking she has about 6 ounces on it,ide say its got between 1.5 and 2 weeks left.
Happy growing guys.
Hi team,
I have a mate that grows photos in soil that says he can give me a clone or some cuttings anytime I want.
I grow autoflowers in coco.
My question is can I repot a cutting/clone in coco if it has already grown in soil?
Regards,
Mossyman88
The fact that the plant from where you are getting cuttings is growing in soil will have no effect if you want to grow the clones/cuttings in coco. For ease of cultivation, I would be getting rockwool cubes to plant the cuttings in to, however, if the clones are already growing in soil and you want to plant the cuttings with their soil into your coco system, there should be no problems what-so-ever. In fact, your coco would get a microbial boost from the soil. Any soil started cutting should not suffer from nutrient/water build up, as these will just be "sucked up" into the surrounding coco anyhow, coco being quite "sponge" like. Hope this helps,.... Organoman.
If he can give you a clone anytime then he must be cutting it fresh off the plant. In this case all he has to do is root the clone in a rock wool cube or something similar and your good to go. If he uses a cloning machine just put the roots in a cup of water to get them to you and transplant directly into your coco. There are a few different ways he can get you clones for coco. Lol not sure if you meant the clones are coming from a plant in soil, or if your getting clones in soil...lol but if you get them in say a small starter pot of soil just or something just wait until she is ready to be transplanted and transplant her soil and all into your coco, the roots will grow out and into the coco. Only thing is that the soil will retain your water and nutrients in it a lot more then the coco, so if there is lots of soil you are transplanting then maybe it’s better to do what the other grower said and leave it in soil till it can be cloned itself and make some new ones that way. Hope this helps, cheers 💨
Sure but keep in mind the soil has microbes and nutrients and fungi to help the plant get food and what not so i would leave the dirt around the root zone because of the micro rizho around the roots and put coco around it. Or take it leave it in dirt all the way and clone off of that into coco or root cube then coco
Only one gelato remaining people.
This one is really taking its time and the lack of orange pistils does have me really worried.
All bottom vegetation is turning yellow and dying out and buds look like they still have a bit to go.
I'm hoping its not a did.
Hi team,
One gelato left and the pistils aren't really turning orange,an odd one here and there.
Its at week 19 now and has me really worried.
Most of the vegetation is turning yellow and the bottom vegetation is turning yellow.
Not sure what to do with it.
Awe man i woke This morning saw ur question and want to help. I grew one auto by accident it was a bag seed auto from dispensary weed. U have to check the trichomes and see if there white or clear. If there white or whitish looking kinda milky then its done. I dont wait for amber as it takes the flavor of the weed down . also looks shes done or a week away cuz u want the plant to die or start to die. I cutmine looked just like urs it was fire i waited on the other and it was garbage. I would get real close and look at thise trichs on the bud tho
Startedgrow on 14/12,3 green crack and a gelato, all autoflowers, man they are really struggling,2 had a calcium deficiency and 2 of their leaves started to curl, flushed them 4-5 days ago and changed light setting from 24 to 20-4,gave them first feed last night,still poor, help!
This is my 4th grow and never had issues like this,I'm going to let them dry out for another 2-3 days and then hmfeed and hopefully I'll see them perk up a bit.
Soul destroying stuff really.
Hey buddy sorry that your having some trouble, no offense but you could be overwatering as well as, maybe try giving them another day or two from what you have been doing, that could help them perk up. Good luck man I hope you get it resolved
Need more perlite in grow mix. Too much water. Major issue is your soil ph. Your ph is out of range causing all your problems with nutrition. Always have at least 20 percent run off and test run off ph. Will tell you what soil ph is. Around a 6.0 to 6.5 should be ideal for you. Good luck and happy growing 🌲🌲🌲👊
Gents,
I have 5 plants in coco,all autos,they all went into pots on 14/12.issue is my input pH is 5.6-5.8 and my runoff pH is between 6.2 and 6.5.
Ppm today was 1400 going in and 1100 runoff, plants are very green and were all flushed 2-3 weeks ago.
Should I worry?
I would pour a larger volume through the pot to get it in the range you want it.
Regards the ppm again pour as much volume of feed through the pot until your run off matches the ppm of the feed going in.
Simple fix my friend and happy growing and lastly I would aim towards 5.8 in the earlier stages and more around 6 for later on in flowering👍
