Germination
4 years ago
-Placed 9 seeds into glass jar with regular tap water ec 0.2 for 24 hrs. - Before placing the seeds into Canna Terra soil ( mixed with Great white myco) i ran ph 6.0 water through the medium till run off to find the ec (1.6) and ph 5.8 of the medium. - Started the girls on a 12/1 lighting schedule where they get 12 hrs of light 5.5 hrs off 1 hr on and 5.5 off - trying this new light schedule. - using 48w fluorescence- mojocow lights for germination and then will move them into new tent with HLG 260r spec lights. - using TNB Naturals co2 enhancer. put them in a propogation tray and misted the dome. - On the 7th after 3 days all the girls have risen from the soil. Havent watered for the whole of week 1 as they were initially watered.

End of week 2 -The humidity got way too high and Washing machine and Jack Herer were dying, managed to save washing machine but RIP Jack . - Down to 8 strains. - Moved the lights down as the girls were getting leggy 17 inches from canopy. - Banana Frosting and Diesel CBD cant support their own weight so they have been given some support , hoping for the stem to be stronger, will have to wait and see. - rest of the girls are looking fine. - Refill TNB natural Co2. - Will be moving the girls in a bigger tent under the HLG 135 Rspec end of week 3.

Buttercream gelato seem fine to me, but the galaxy plant..... It ain't no deficiency, otherwise all the plants growing in the same soil would be showing the same symptoms. In this case, I believe, it is caused by bad genetics - basically a "mutant" type of plant. You could try and keep her growing if you are really keen, however if her leaves are this messed up, her flowers will probably be too. Personally I would cull a plant like that; it's not going to bring you any joy, sorry to say. Chalk it up to experience and maybe something to wonder about. Hope this helps.... Organoman.

Der temperatur Unterschied von Nacht und Tag ist zu stark Versuch die Temperatur konstant auf 22grad -24 grad zu halten da ist die Nährstoff Aufnahme am besten und die Erde sieht ziemlich trocken aus

@Bichen86,Hi mate , were you looking at the info at the top ? just fixed that ..i had incorrectly typed it in. The difference between night and day is always between 5°c to 10°c.The soil looks dry as i am trying the 50% watering rule .i water the plants when the weight of the pot is half the weight when saturated with water ..Am i doing something wrong ? .Thanks for the comment :)

Hey there friend. Would you be alright with me offering some pointers? So cannabis plants LOVE heat and humidity. It is the buds that hate it. In veg we want to take advantage of this fact to help our plants grow along much quicker and more vigorously. In veg we can look for temps of 79-84 MAX with lights on & no more than 9 degrees less with lights off. If we allow for too much temperature swing between lights on and lights off while the plant is still growing vertically up to day 20 of flower, We will cause the plant to stretch ALOT which we do not want. So in veg & early flower, Keeping our temperature gaps nice and close between lights on and off is key. Utilizing humidity in our rooms during veg will also help out a lot with more rapid growth but we must introduce it properly. In our rooms we have our temperature and humidity set-points, But when we combine those 2 it forms a third set-point which is the most important & that is called VPD, Vapor pressure deficit. I strongly recommend every new grower or old grower who has not learned it yet, To study and understand it & implement it into your room, Logging your numbers daily. https://cerescann.com/importance-of-measuring-vpd/ For soil, We generally want to go for a PH of 6.1 This website does a GREAT job of illustrating it with a nice graph & very good detailed explanation for soil. https://autoflowerseedshop.com/cannabis-ph-chart-guide/ As we briefly touched on before, During veg & early flower we want our temperature gap's nice and tight to avoid stretch. Why exactly our plants stretch in response to this is a genetic trigger being activated by the environmental stress essentially telling the plant the end of the season is closer than it really is. In veg & early flower the plant is still in its first stage of development which is to grow up wide and tall so when it produces seed, It can cast them out nicely. Remember, Whether we are growing our plants for seed or bud their genetic responses do not change as they gh sidedo not know any different. Once the plant has finished that first stage of growth by weeks 4-6 of flower with most strains, It is by day 20 of flower. Autoflowers you have to watch for it, But once the plant has finished this goal its new mission is to focus 100% on producing nice big flower clusters & to get very sticky so it can attract pollen to it successfully. So once that vertical growth is finished, We actually now want to begin to expose our plants to larger temperature swings between lights on and lights off. This will help activate that genetic response and allow us to draw out the most potential from the strain utilizing the plants genetic triggers to environmental stresses at the right times. We can also take this a step further with doing light deprivation in the last 2 weeks using less light to simulate cloud cover. Very cold feed temps on the last flush is very good too. If you do not have them already, Get yourself a good PAR meter & thermal laser temp gun to monitor your plant top temperatures & optimize how much light your plants are getting. We are currently in the middle of producing a very comprehensive tutorial series for everybody to learn from & understand how to grow the highest level craft cannabis all on their own. If this interests you please check out our youtube and subscribe. The first 2 episodes are out the next one is coming in a few days. If you should ever have any questions or need any help, Please feel free to follow my profile and shoot me a DM. I will gladly help you with the pull down & make sure you get the best quality harvest possible as it is the most important step of the entire process. I really think you would benefit from our tutorial series on youtube, Our channel is linked off our main grow diaries profile. We just put up week 3 of plant life care so you got time to subscribe and catch up before the next episode is out! I look forward to seeing you over there and hearing your feedback to better help me shape the tutorials Happy growing friend!
