- Signs of Phosphorus deficiency started to show this week (and almost certainly before, but inexperienced eyes didn't pick it up!). Blue-ish hue and red stems.
- After some investigating it seems to be nutrient lock-out by high PH. Our tap water comes in at 7.0 on the nose, adding nutrients brings it up to nearly 8.0. Corrected with PH Down on the next feed, so will keep an eye on them both.
- Smell profile for Somango is beautiful lemony-sweet. Critical Mass CBD still has a lovely pine scent.
- Humidity is creeping up, small space and big plants. Exhaust fan speed increased to compensate (RVK 100 4-inch and a WAC1 controller) and monkey fan turned up to increase air circulation.
@Squidlin, If you keep it up like your doing now you will get yields like me or even more.
I am one year in this growing thing and i think i have done almost every mistake there is and failed many times.
So from now i will get better grows and yields.
I wish you the best of luck and massive yields.
@CBD_Sweden, Thank you so much for your support! I am new, so having experienced growers like yourself take interest in my diary is a massive confidence boost.
I look forward to getting similar yields as you do one day :P
@DinafemSeeds, Hi Mark!
Sorry for the very delayed reply, life has been manic and I've not had a chance to update.
I am still blown away by Critical Mass CBD! So happy.
I'll shoot you a PM.
@Squidlin,
Congratulations on a super successful harvest :)
And even better to read that this was a life changing moment and you'll be trying more of our strains soon :)
Drop me a pm my friend! Love your work :)
All the best
Mark..
@DinafemSeeds,
Hi Mark,
Harvest completed, I've finally updated after a 2 weeks cure.
This is probably my favourite strain honestly. It's my first CBD strain and I am so pleased I gave it a go. I can't remember feeling so motivated, clear headed and happy.
Yield was low (I think?) but that's down to lack of experience, I have 2 more seeds so I will keep improving! It's plenty for me either way.
Thanks so much man, a genuine life changing moment! I will definitely be coming back for more Dinafem seeds!
Big fat beautuful bud production and trichome development is going crazy :)
Fantastic work my friend and I'll drop back in on the next update :)
All the best
Mark..
@Squidlin, it will come faster than you can imagine mate :)
They are getting fatter every time I see them. Pistol colour has started to change so harvest is only 2-3 weeks away :)
Are you checking trichome colour and development?
This will let you select the best harvest window :)
All the best
Mark.
Your at that stage now where your structure is fixed as the stretch phase is over.
Now that beautiful structure has started to full out with some very pretty looking buds which are going to explode in the coming weeks :)
Will be watching with interest my friend!
All the best
Mark..
@DinafemSeeds, Thanks so much for the support and advise!
I have two more Critical Mass CBD seeds, so this certainly won't be the last diary on this lovely strain. I am super impressed with how well the plant has stayed healthy considering the gardener isn't very experience. :P Testament to the genetics!
I hopefully won't disappoint.
