2021 Grow - Organic Breeding Experiment

Plant stocks are getting stronger. New leaves and branches are appearing. Turned the heat up from 24.5C to 26C. Doubled the fish fert. Day 17 Transplanted into bigger pots on a Full Moon. The females in Red Pots and unknowns in smaller ones. Flushed with water.

March 1- Space queen still yellowing. Been feeding balanced water. Tested run off PH 6.3 TDS 680. Flushed with water some more. Tested others. All have higher PH so maybe not able to absorb nutrients. All plants were gently flushed and will adjust nutrients on next watering. March 3 - Ohhhk. Here we go. Things aren’t getting better. Did some more reading about coco growing. I wish I read more sooner. - I have upped Fish Fert to 45mL/gallon. - Added 2 tsp Epson salts / gallon. Hopefully just temporary until magnesium is saturated in coco. I should have buffered coco first. But there is room in my EC for it so why not. Can’t hurt? - EC is at 930(TDS) (water is 150 of that) - Upped CalPhos to 10ml. - Added some worm casing as a top dressing. I am watering 1-3/4 cup for large pots and 1/4 cup for smalls. There is run off. Run off is lower EC (560TDS) than going in. Will continue to monitor

The start of week 5 is looking brighter. Plants are recovering big time. I have given two feeds with CalMag and what a difference! The color is back and the growth is picking up. I will likely veg another 2-3 weeks to allow more time for recovery. Some tips are yellow and dry on bigger pots. I suspect it’s from the transplant shock and too big of pots. The others don’t show the same signs. March 16- plants seem to have bounced back so I cut their heads off! Topped the unknowns March 15. Hoping to flip them quickly and weed out the males. The four fem seeds are still struggling. I over potted them. I topped one and left the rest to see how it handles the added stress. Reduced the Fish Fert to 35ml/gal from 45mL/cal. Tips are looking a little yellow.
