Seeds germinated in 6ph water for 24 h then , they go into their respective 10l-15 fabric pots .
The coco coir is from Top crop and is mixed and supercharged by myself with high quality organic solid slow release fertilizers also Mircro Vita, Pots have a fine clay ball base to improve drainage also the coco is mixed with perlite at aprox 20 - 25 % .
I would recommend using The BioBizz pre mix only for outdoor grows , the smell was so fishy and bad i the room and half of the house kept the smell for 1-2 weeks :) thanks god im single.
Spraying with balanced ph water also the leaves in order to give them a little foliar feed , that seems to help a lot watching other pro growers from this comm.
I will be watering with 5.5 and 6 ph during most of the veg phase in order to balance and correct again de medium ph because i belive due that all the elements i add to the coco coir the ph could be quite altered.
1 - The plant in the middle is a bonsai experiment with a skittlez from a previous run that i all removed due to a few mistakes in a row i decided to start again , you guys can see some pots have 2 plants , later one will stay and the weakest will be removed.
2 - The bigger pots are 15l for mephisto genetics MAB and Hubbaluba
3 - 10 L pots for the 4fastbuds Genetics
The 2 small plastic 1 l POTS are gecko seeds , wich i will make another diary because they are photo .
Lamp is dimmed to 50% with sunrise effect ON
First LST at 18 and 20 days also a good defoliation , still watering at 6 ph , foliar feed with just water and some extra alga nutrients.
I see all plants healthy , not very happy with the growth speed of the mephisto but this could be because slightly overwatering , one of the mephisto will be later removed due to her slow growth .
Also very happy with my gecko seeds photo strawberry mint wich has the same days than the fastbuds and is doing amazing in her 1 l pot .
Also i snapped the main stem from the biggest plant in the tent when doing LST i cut nearly half of the plant so lets see how this genetics will recover ...
Kept doing LST and defoliation way more than the recommended 20 percent from the total leaves also the plant that suffered the cut in half of the main stem has recovered quite ok .
2 defoliation and adjust lst round this week
This week i noticed a sligtly pale green color on the leaves so i decided to add 2ml of TOP VEG , also i saw a little white fly so i add barrier to the the foliar feed and also in the watering , i assume that soon i will have to do a flush with just cal mag to clean the coco coir .
Im very happy overall with the growth of the plants.
Lamp is now dimmed to 245 w 100% with sunrise mode still ON
Flowers start to appear , i add some algae nutrients to produce more branches with buds, also i add a low dose of P K nutrients increasing during the week into the watering now 3 -4 l every 48 h , im afraid to add some extra nutes due to the coco has been supercharged at the beginning of the grow and the plants still didnt show any deficiencies so im watering with the flood method in order to dont leave any stuck salts around the roots from previous watering also the first watering from 6th week will be just with cal Mag and flooding ( 5 l each plant ) to help to clean the coco , i plan to keep feeding the ladies big bud and Nirvana also the part B flower coco from advanced nutrients i hope i dont create any nutes burn or lockout .
Plants looking good.
Small defoliation to help the buds see the light
Also i bought for 1.20 eur each in the local chinnese shop a plastic object that will raise the pots a few cm and will allow the air coming from the low passive intake to go trough
Noticed cal mag def in the smallesT plant , low dose of nutes with flood watering + extra of cal mag for her , noticed nutes burn in the tangie flood watering with nearly no nutes only cal mag , the mephisto and northern are looking great , i defoliated the leaves affected later this week i will be spreading the branches to allow light penetrate in the inside .
New tent
Now looking good
. Day 39 from seed - Bought pipecleaners in the local chinese shop to tie and spread dwon the branches , im sure this will affect in a great way to the final results in yield and quality , the NL is a very bushy plant and a few hours after the spread is already saying thank you and looking better , next watering i will be flooding with PH water and Cal Mag to clean the coconut fibers and push down all the salts so i plan to start feeding with PK in higher doses from week 7 on advance i want to leave the medium in perfect condition for the bloom stages.
I did some major defoliation on 3rd week of flora i just read a article from fastbuds saying that defoliation on flowering stage will affect in a several Way giving results of tiny yields.
My question did i defoliated too much and will this stress and reduce the final yield?
Thks
I would doubt you ruined it. Look up schwazzing. In this case, it depends on genetics and environmental conditions but you could have increased your yield. It's all very hotly debated, so I suppose you will see at harvest.
What is this ?
Last picture is from another plant photo and is not in flowering stage , it could be a different issue because and im not feeding her PK like the other 3 autos this could be related to high humidity also?
Ph is always at 6
Temps 24
Humidity 70%
70% is way too high for flowering. 30-50% range is ideal. PH is at the low end of the spectrum, and wouldn't hurt to come up by .2-.3 temp might be a bit high for flowering as well, ideally 19-22. Feeding K helps bloom yield, but should impact leaves. Normally at tend of flowing the leaves start to look like you sucked the color our of them from the main stem with a syringe, and the spotty yellow isn't ideal, but probably isn't a huge issue, and is more likely cause by too much nutrients than too little and spotting and tip browning can be symptoms of root burn.
All good , watering with 6’2 ph range and 500ppm , 600 ppm coning from the runoff , 1 day a week flood watering with cannazym to clean medium.
Hubbalubameloscope has already fat flowers and around 3 weeks more of life so i expect a good yeld from her.
Harvested 3 or 4 days early due to high humidity in the tent some mold appeared and i had to cut the top of some buds to stop it from spreading .
Fresh cut Smell is sweet with hints of caramel Lets see how it evolves during curing.
325 g wet weight
Will update in a few weeks with the rest of the info.
Harvested on day 67 from seed.
-This was my first grow in indoors and Also using coco Medium , this strain has good yielding potential that reacted without any complaints to all my noob mistakes , she can handle a very high ec , her roots where not very prominent and she Is very busy and needs defoliation .
I give her a 6’5 out of 10 with a potential score pf 8/10 doing the things right with her but she is sharing the tent with a mephisto strain and she has nothing to do with the hubbabubas they play in different leagues .
Unfortunately i have 70-80% humidity in the grow room and this has situation stayed during all flowering stage , but this strain is top resistant and a big yielder i will cut her early due that im not capable of lowering the humidity and im afraid but still very happy all her is covered with frost and she created large flowers into her delicate branches that are all already bending , definitely this is the frostiest auto i ever seen .
She has a funky smell not too strong but nothing related with bubblegum as its supposed to be more like a wet dog with hints of sweet .🐕
Citrus and orange smell sticky plant , harvested on day 70 , could let her a little longer due to white pistils still forming on the top of some buds But this is supposed to be a uplifting sativa so im cutting Half milky 10% ambar.
Vigorous plants she did very well on her 10 l pot Im happy overall But i recommed this strain with at least 15 l to get all her potential.
She is resinous and Stinky .
7/10 rated from my short experience growing indoors , she is resistant and good yielder.
* Also i snapped half of the plant doing LST on week 3 i took off more than 3 nodes from her and she recovered her normal growth in around 3 days but its a decent yield i think for 250 w and 10 l pot so im going to give her a 7.5/10 😉
10/10 Mephisto is the maserati , mclaren of autos you Just cant go wrong with them , thank you very much guys for your great work.
Reaching 80% of humidity on late flower and no mold at all i had to cut her early just in case but i know she could do more weight , frost all over her, not a lot of smell but im in love with the pheno and i was feeling so sorry In the moment of the cut. Thanks for everything you served me well girl ✨💚.
@Ferenc, And also sanlight led the quality really makes the difference i belive , also this was my first grow but before i was a gardener so i had some hand already with plants 😇
