Overall ok. Overdosed on nutes on the sweet mandarine, just waiting to dry to fix back ph. and bit of heat stress on the banana which was fixed by Pulling up the lamp. Autobrooklyn growing weirdly but we’ll see what comes out of this first try. Put 3 auto glueberry to germinate.
Seems all good. Not using any growth technique, just letting the bushes to take form (yield not the biggest objective here). Also not adding nutrients as so far the growth is ok. Added a dehumidifier as the grow room was mad humid. Now stabilizing to 50% RH. Looking forward for the auto to starting flower so I can enjoy some nice high in a 4 weeks!
First time I grow, put some auto and some fem, shall I start to flower looking at the bigger plant state? What do you think? I am not looking for crazy yield - if I can get 100grams on average in the fem and 50 on the auto would be more than enough? Shall I pull the switch?
Hi. Those biggest plants you have - if you were to initiate flower right now - will likely yield 18-32g dried per plant, if you do everything right.
If you are stating you want 100g per plant, dry, you need to veg those a lot longer and when it comes to autos you don’t have that control.
I would suggest you continue with the grow without putting any yield expectations on yourself. It is what it is given your container size, skill level, and the fact you’re growing autos.
I think you have very healthy looking plants so you are doing something right. Enjoy this run, learn a ton, take notes, and use those experiences to shape your next grow attempt.
Good luck
Fem Banana blaze and Brooklyn sunrise started to droop today. Moved the Brooklyn sunrise into a new pot (fabric), bigger one, with a nice humid pot mix, and it seemed that in a few hours the plant is starting to come back. Waited a bit more to figure out what to do for the banana. Noticed soil was dry, so I assumed the dropping was caused by under watering. Added some water, hope tomorrow morning the plant is back in shape. Rest of the jungle seems ok, with soil moist but not super moist. Will water them tomorrow, hopefully not making the same mistakes with those one.
Banana blaze seems to also have nutrients deficiencies, but still not sure what to do here. Let’s see and learn!
Will probably move the autoglueberry into a bigger pot in next few days!
Update: indeed drooping was caused by under watering (went out for a few days and did not plan it well apparently). Banana look way better now. Indeed, leaves had heat / wind burn - even though the plan was far from the dehumidifier (moved plant closed to it just before taking the photo) but definitely the two plants which where on a similar axis showed similar pattern. Why do I use a dehumidifier? Because I am in a tropical climate (perfect RH outside and perfect light cycles naturally speaking but a looooot of rain where I live hence indoor growing as a first try), when i did not use it , RH was going to 90% easy (those plants sweat like crazy ;-)).
Update 2: Why do I have photo, auto, bigger, smaller plants? While this might not be a great idea, now just need to make the most of it ;-). To Understand what simplicity means, you also need to understand what complex is. Complete newbie here so I am willing to sacrifice yield, and to a certain extent quality, to make as many learnings as I can. If i can raise kids of different age group, why not growing a few plants freestyling ;-)! Thanks for all the help to my fellow growers!
Update 3: week going well so far. Fed them with some top veg. Auto Brooklyn seems to go into flowering especially the small and skinny plant in the small pot.
Sweet mandarine and banana blaze growing nicely, seems ready to go to flower in few weeks.
Seedlings autoglueberry and sweet tooth developing well in this environment.
Decided to take off the dehumidifier while trying to control RH around 60-65%. Temp is steady, between 72 -77. Added a fan at the top of the tent to keep air flow.
Let’s see how it goes!
Photo 3 of week 6: as you can see, some décoloration in the leaves of the banana. Under the big leaves some small leave turn crispy and not good looking. Is it K deficiency?
Hey buddy... How is that room set up... Anything blowing air on these leafs.. aur should be blown around around the canopy below ir above bu never straight on.. something us pushing dry air on these leaf.. i think its called ''wind burn''
Spotted some aphid infection on one plant. Pruned it and sprayed it with water / neem oil / aloe Vera powder. Hope I can manage and control it! Seems to be ok as it is not developing like crazy but Iets see!
Hey! How do you think they are looking? First time I grow, I am excited about their progress but no clue if they look good for someone a bit more experienced. Please roast them/ me ;-)!
Hi, congrats! They look good! It’s hard to tell by the light but that one pic has very dark leaves...maybe too much nitrogen in bloom? About 6 more weeks! Congrats! Looking good ✌️🏼♥️🌱
Just chopped the first cream mandarine. Will update once drying and curing has happened.
Update 1: chopped all of the cream mandarine over the past days. Really nice and dense buds, smelling really nicely. Smoked an early after 4-5 and 6 day of drying - 1.3 gram (18cl / RH 50%). Definitely the taste improved as well as the smoke which is nice to notice as a first time grower. Will put 90% of the harvest of those plants through proper curing in 7-8 days most probably and will keep other 10% in jar in a normal way.
Those were my first batch of auto which I did not treat well - did a transplant, not provided enough light as I had photo in tent, so very little yield unfortunately. But early dried bud definitely have a great effect. Will have enough to cure 8g of this genetics and see how great it can become in 6-8weeks.
The strain that has most yielded so far, as well as the frostiness. Full of trichrome, and pretty oily! Will scale it when dry, and will take roughly 90% of the harvest through curing.
Congratulations! 👏
Thank you very much for trusting our strains, and sharing your experience.
And thank you very much again for the score of 8 out of 10!! 👏😍❤️
We hope you enjoy the harvest 👌
