Day 26;
She is growing slower than her tent sisters, and she's very short.
I improved the space in the tent by adding some frames that'll stop the walls from being sucked inwards.
Day 1 of flower;
This girl is considerably smaller than her sisters. SHe's built like a cabbage head. SHe should start stretching shortly.
She gets a rough start outdoors with some strong winds. Tonight she'll get a spraying of Neem to prepare her for the outdoor bugs that are sure to come and visit.
I have been disconnected from my ISP and haven't been able to update the diary in a few weeks.
Due to poor weather I had to move her indoors.
Day 24 of flower;
At 58 cm she's the shortest of the bunch. The others reaching over 1 meter. But she's bushing out nicely and I expect her to bring out some beautiful flowers.
Day 32 of flower;
She's gaining some height and is catching up to her older neighbours. She's starting to build some buds and she's giving off some beautiful smell.
Day 41 of flower;
She is still the shortest in the lineup, but she's catching up. She's got small buds forming all over and she starts to get sticky and give a beautiful scent.
Day 48 of flower;
It's her sixth week of flowering and she's putting on some good amount of frost. Her smell develops more for every day and she smells great.
Day 53 of flower;
I got White powdery mildew on 4 plants - on all plants I haven't got inside the tent. I forgot to replace one of the fans before I left them for a few days and I saw this upon my return.
I'm starting a grow question to hopefully get some options to remove it. I don't like spraying them with milk.
What's your best remedy to remove it on flowering plants? I just found it after I had forgotten to replace on of the fans when I left them for a few days.
What can I do to remove it as quickly as possible without ruining the buds? I'd prefer not spraying them with milk.
I've had quite a bit of experience with WPM. Honestly unless its an outdoor plant, anything in store usually has sulphur which you dont want on your p)ants for smoking. (Outside rain can wash away) And anything natural, you can make at home.
A tsp of baking soda per cup of water and just spray on leaves daily will PREVENT further growth by changing the surface pH on the leaves. Doesnt hurt, if the baking soda builds up, so just a water spray one day. Also do it when the lights just turn on so it will dry out.
Any buds that have had their sugar leaves or deeper infected, i wouldnt reccommend smoking anymore. I use for edibles still though.
If you have a bunch of WPM like that; I HIGHLY reccomend you use 1/4 cup milk and 3/4 cup water spray with the baking soda. Do this daily for a week.
Milk is widely used by many gardeners as sunlight and fake sunlight will turn the milk proteins into a natural antiseptic and literally kills the WPM. Never noticed any change it taste or potency
Your WPM probably started somewhere with less light and air flow. Once the WPM is under control, do what you can to fix this until the end of your grow to stop it from returning. Use LST to open that area up, or add a fan closer to there.
Good luck!
Day 55 of flower;
After I cleaned off the White Powdery Mildew (WPM) I could see yesterday, the plants don't look to bad today. I've removed another couple of leaves today that showed some spots, but now they look good. I sprayed them with some H2O2 yesterday. I've ordered a Propolis product that will then hopefully make sure the plants won't get the WPM back.
Day 58;
I started flushing her today. She's almost done...
Day 64 of flower;
This little girl's life is soon coming to an end. She's had some rough times where she got pushed aside by a little bit older neighbours. She won't yield so much, but she makes up for it with her amazing smell.
Very delicious buds. They smell so much of tangy citrus and they taste great. It is very strong and gives a great long lasting high. It doesn't make me couch locked, but allows for normal activities.
Unfortunately, due to my own mistakes, she yielded poorly and I won't have a stash of her beautiful buds for very long.
I didn't really give this girl a fair life. Yielding a whopping 19 grams she was definitely not one of my heavy weight champions, but the buds she produced are of superb quality.
Ok, so my initial very optimistic plan was to grow her outdoors. I thought too highly of our winters and when the first rain storm arrived I had to take her and her 3 sisters indoors instead. Crammed into a space of 2' x 2.5' with her 3 sisters under a 230 W light was not the best conditions for her, or her sisters for that matter. She was also the shortest of the bunch and had to struggle to get light for the most part of her life. However, the resulting buds are of top quality and I just wish I had more of them.
At harvest I also noticed how the tap root makes a 90 degree turn to the side. I'm thinking I probably packed the coco too hard.
