My first ever grow, still waiting for pH and EC measures to arrive in the post.
No tent yet.
Germination was as expected.
Just transplanted sprout from small container to 19 liter smart pot with coco coir perlite mix, about 70/30.
LED light on 60 %.
Any guidance will be appreciated from experienced growers.
Plant 1 in soil developed some rusty spots on both fan leaves, either over watering or MagCal deficiency (or both). Plant in Coco/Perlite needed to be buffered to correct pH and EC. Easy with Bluelab pH and EC pens. Runoff seems within levels.
Thursday should be better with CalMag and Cannazym arriving.
Another Attis 200 LED light and Secret Jardine tent arriving next week.
Humidity at 50-55,much better after some DIY solutions. Tin foil on cardboard, wood log is for bringing up Humidity and it works. Soak it when lights are off, then leave it next to pots during daylight hours.
Today was first time LST, seems to be OK. Time will show.
Great learning curve, thankfully Autoflowering plants are forgiving when making mistakes.
Learning less is better.
Miss reading about other people's mistakes, thats how new growers learn. Still it's fun to see how green fingered people are.
Happy growing. 👍
Steady she grows, hoping my grow tent turns up this week. Faint smell coming from soil plant but the one in coco is not.
Germinated an AK47 and OG Kush from High Supplies. Both just peaked through the grow medium. Looking good.
Going into week 5, looking for signs she is ready to flower, will go over to 12-12 lighting in a few days.
My little AK and OG Kush seem to be doing ok. Runoff is looking good in amount and EC.
Very new to all this, as I am confined to spend long periods of time at home this is the perfect hobby for a hobby smoker with CBD needs. Great place to get information and help with issues.
Most things seem to be going as wanted. Tent is ready to be used. Intake and extraction fans arrive tomorrow. Then the plant will have perfect grow condition whilst flowering. Will change over to 12-12 light cycle. As always, happy growing folks. Stay positive and spread some love during this festive season.
My Secret Jardin tent should be up tomorrow, with two ATTIS LED lights running. Started feeding once in the morning and again 8 hours later. Amount of nutrients can be split in 2, one halv for each feeding.
Seems to work better when looking at EC levels. Just over 40 days since planting, introduced low level of PK 13-14 nutrients every second day. See if my timing is good, might be a bit early using PK nutes.
My Og Kush and AK47 (2-3 week old) plants are looking good pluss 2 seedlings of same name look good after 3 days, own journal.
Best wishes for Xmas to everyone.
Take care and happy growing 🎄😊👍
Had to trim some leaves mid section on plant to increase air circulation. Feed her in the morning with about .0.6 l and again 8 hours later.
Found some nasty looking leaves around top/ main cola. They look rusty and a faint yellow yellow colour. Could be a Phosphorus deficiency, or the stress of spending it's first day in grow tent.
It's only on 2 leaves supporting main cola. Look at picture.
If anyone can help with this problem I would really appreciate it. Think I missed last weeks journal, so this would most likely be week 9.
Planted another AK-47 and OG Kush yesterday. Different diary.
Second younger Northern lights looks healthy.
Think buds could be doing better as time is closing, maybe 2-3 weeks before flushing.
Grow tent makes life easier, took some time to fine tune it. Need to consider a better watering system, a better way to collect runoff.
No good moving 7 heavy plants around 3 times a day. Switched to 3 feeds a day, considering Coco is hard to over water. The girls love their new environment.
Especially noticeable with seedlings. I have 7 plants in a 4 by 4 tent, think that is enough for somebody with my notice skills.
Happy growing everyone 🤐😀👍
This being week elleven I was hoping for larger and more development on buds. Trichomes seem to be appearing more visible for the naked eye. Removed plant from grow room as I suspect moisture problem. There being to damp conditions at the beginning of using grow tent. Humidity was to high. Thought best to remove from tent. Can't really get a proper look at the trichomes as the camera on mobile phone is not up for the task. Ordered a magnifying glass to solve issues.
So this is the end of week 12, bought a magnifying glass to check trichomes. They are mostly clear. So another week of feed before a week of flushing. Understand flushing in Coco goes quicker than soil medium. All in all it has been a fun learning curve. I hope each harvest will bring better yields. Sampled my Northern lights plant that was originally in soil but using bad potting soil turned the plants life stressed. Still it had a nice taste and after drying and curing the end result was good considering grow factors. I lay on the sofa for a day enjoying the fruits.
