Day 21 Flip to 12/12 to try and find males.
Day 24 - 3 days into flowering and the plants are showing some sign of nutrient burn.?
Day 26 - 5 days in to flowering and I spot what looks like a male. Interestingly, the most stout of the group with the shortest internodes and almost crossed stipules.
Day 28. 1 week of flower. 5 are showing as male. 5 are green / healthy unsexed. 5 are unhealthy unsexed.
5 Male: these plants are showing male parts. Bottoms are yellowing. A sign of a nitrogen deficiency / root bound in cup.
5 unhealthy plants: these plants were of the most vigorous and healthy plants from the beginning. This makes me think they are growing faster and had higher demand for Nitrogen for the early flower stretch and this demand was not met. Unfortunately the stunting as a result of this is a) keeping them from flowering or b) they are female and just haven’t shown yet.
5 Healthy plants: these were the plants who were stunted in the beginning due to under watering and dry conditions. As a result they are probably a bit behind and had a lower demand for nitrogen as they probably haven’t shot into early flower stretch and therefor are actually healthy looking.
So my plan moving forward is: now at the end of week 1 of flower I will feed some tea brewed for only 7 hours.
2 TBSP per gal 7:3:1 bat guano
0.5 TBSP per gal 3:1:3 Insect Frass
1 TBSP per gal Kelp meal
I will let flower carry on and see what happens, in the name of science.
@ChefDan420, right on brotherman! As a noob I put the screen in a little early, about 1.5 weeks into flower - expecting more stretch. Next time I would go a little earlier. I’d like to have 6 - 8 “ above the screen rather than 2” 🤗
@ChefDan420, thanks. I made it out of PVC and Quest plastic yard fencing from Canadian tire. If I was to use up the rest of the fencing and make a bunch, total cost per unit would be about 10 bucks. :)
@Gardenofweeden, Roger that. These are 7 gallon! Ive moved to 2 or 3 gallon and getting much better results with lots of lessons learned. This was my very first grow ever
