Hey and welcome to my past time hobby for the last month and a half. The lamp is finally on 100% @45CM and the growth is definitely fast. Also the drinking rate of the Plant #2 is creeping up on me, I didn't expect her to drink so fast already so I upped the amount of water she gets. Also the training has been continued and as you can see that part is going really well! Plant #2 has some red tinting on the new growth and I have no idea what it is again, might be genetics or pH. I also asked Plagron about the problem I was having and they advised me to stop using pH regulators so I'm going to try that out for a bit. My tap water miraculously changed to 7.0-7.1 so I might be able to get by. Also gave her some LST and picked out one fan leaf that was blocking a lot of bud sites.
I also decided to train Plant #1 down just now so we'll see how she fares coming week. Plant #1 looks pretty much picture perfect right now and I hope she doesn't have the same problems as Plant #2.
Oh and I also almost snapped the main branch on Plant #2 while training, she didn't give a single fuck so hooray!
EDIT LATE AT NIGHT: So I just went to check on my plants and it's almost lights out. I just found a bunch of white pistils on Plant #2 so that means we're starting the flowering phase! Will probably try to document the stretch over this week.

Just a mid-week update. Plant #2 is doing her stretch. 1 day after I noticed on Plant #2 I also noticed white pistils on Plant #1 which means she also started flowering! Which means stuff is gonna be a bit simpler than having an auto in flower and veg at the same time. Only thing I have been doing is touch up on the LST, tucking leaves and I picked off a few leaves here and there that were blocking bud sites. I also took a tiny ass branch off the bottom Plant #2. I was on the fence if I should lollipop, but I'll be a bit safer this first indoor grow.
They are still drying out from their last feed, Plant #2 probably needs a watering coming weekend or Monday. Plant #1 is still really heavy so probably doesn't need a lot. Plant #1 does show some explosive growth right now so that all could change.
Can't wait to show you week 1 of flowering coming Tuesday and the week after that. The smell has definitely increased, I already noticed the smell last week and that was probably telling me they would flower soon.
Anyways have a great weekend and see you next week.
My Plant #2 (refering to the pictures) is showing some nasty twisted-like growth and unhealthy colors. I think it might be a pH problem, because I have been adjusting pH to 6.5 with organic nutrients and maybe I have been killing the microbes. Thanks for having a look.
Unless this continues throughout the next two sets of leaves, I wouldn't worry about it, Cannabis plants can grow some odd and weird leaves at times, more so autos I have found. Your plant should be ok and keep growing normally. You would have to do something really, really drastic to kill the soil microbial life. 6.5 wouldn't bother them at all. Think 3 or 9 on the ph scale before any irreversible damage is done. Hope this helps.... Organoman.
To diagnose you need to check your runoff water for ph and ec levels. Adjust these according to your grow method. For veg your ph needs to be 6.2 to 6.5 ec should be around 1.8ec, 900 ppm to 2.0ec 1000 ppm. Cheers
It looks like a Calmag deficiency. I would add some with your next feeding. 1tsp/gal and the problem should stop. The rust spots on the leafs won't go away but shouldn't spread or get worsem
@MarsHydroLED,
Hey thx for making the nice budget light. I have a question: is the driver supposed to get quite warm? I have a fan blowing on it now just to be safe. Thanks.
Those little brown spots..i have same few on each plant i foud out is calcium deficiency so i made from eggsehll and add into wather....will see if this works in few days....
Good luck :)
@FlowAest,ahhh yes tes i was thinking they will brek down slow that why i grinde it to fine fine fine powder and add into wather 1day befor wathering....:) i hope this goes faster :p
@Qlimax, Yea I think my pH was off, I was doing 6.3 while I should've been closer to 7 so now the new growth is better :D. Be advised egg shells need a few months to break down before they can be uptaken by the plant.
@@Charliepugdog, Haha, it does look a bit heavy on the pics. I gotta say IRL they look a little bit slimmer than in the pic. But IRL you can see the trichomes and they're caked in them haha so no problems there.
