Week 9 .......... Flower Week.........June 6 to 12, 2020 ........ Days 57 to 63 from germination
The two girl are sure opposites of each other in how this grow is turning out😂😂👍 GSC2 didn’t get a good transplant and she has really suffered for it........add in that both of them were battling high pH in first weeks and thus the reason for the transplant from the fabric pots into plastic.......she is actually hanging in there and this week progressed well. GSC on the other hand I just have to put into her own tent!!!! She is too freaking big!!!!! I can’t fit her in with the other flowering girls and have any success at the grow👍💪👊😉 The environment is not where it needs to be though for flower so added another humidity controller and smaller full spectrum light to bump up to 300 watt range in the veg/flower tent now. Had limited choice with a limited budget and needed it now. I could go through more fooling around for only roughly 3 more weeks before others are done and could combine the plants.......good excuse though to have increased flexibility going forward😉😉😉👍
Feed amount have been as expected with GSC taking 4L most days while GSC2 is more of 2.5L range when feeding. Have noticed they are taking more water in the taller 3 gallon plastic pots. That is a lot of bottles listed but they are never fed that all at once. That is just a full list of products used this week and the dosage in that feed. I have been holding the feed numbers around 1000 ppm the last week and I think she can take more so have bumped that up to 1300 range for the next week. Expect to see some tip burn as pushing them but very little so far.
GSC is now 36” and 36” wide but her bud sites are not very big in my opinion. I have replaced G.P. Massive with A.N.Big Bud for now as I don’t need her getting any taller......just grow BIG BUD😃😃 GSC2 is being fed the same schedule as GSC and the same feed so all numbers are the same. GSC2 is only 17” tall though and 24” wide.
GSC Environment has been hovering at 80 degrees and 50 percent humidity most of the days.
(Another Humidity controller and light arrive this week.)
GSC2 Environment has been hovering at 79 degrees and 61 percent humidity for most of the week. Yeast and sugar CO2 in use.
Fast Buds strain is solid👊💪👍😍 as is evident in GSC......all issues are grower related to pH problems in first three weeks of their life.
Little more detail:
June 6, Day 57
- 8L mixture with BigBud @ 2ml, VeloKelp, Rezin, liquid Wt, Vitathrive, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 1ml = 1275ppm and 6.1pH
- GSC took 5L and GSC took 3L.
- turning lights down yesterday helped. Both girls leaves are standing up more now,
June 7, Day 58
- debated on feed but mixed 8L with BigBud @ 2ml, Rhinoskin, VeloKelp, Rezin, liquid Wt @ 1.5ml, Dual Fuel @ 1ml = 1015ppm and 5.6pH
- GSC took 6L and GSC2 2L.......good run off from GSC but none from GSC2
- GSC tent needs more humidity in it......working on it
- GSC2 is not looking all that great with her long fan leaves.
June 8, Day 59
- dry out day
- GSC is doing very well and looking big.
- GSC2 is doing better since in the flower tent and under the T5 light.
June 9, Day 60
- mixed 8L water with Massive and Terpinator @ 3ml, Sensizyme, Rezin, Vitathrive @ 2ml, Liquid Wt @ 1.5ml, Dual Fuel @ 1ml = 1050ppm and 5.6pH
- GSC given 5L and GSC2 was 3L.
- Full strength feed as things are going okay overall.
- GSC2 is getting taller and lower branches standing up more now.
- GSC is happy by herself😀
June 10, Day 61
- 6L mixture with BigBud, Rezin @ 2ml, Liquid Wt @ 1.5ml = 475ppm
- 4L for GSC and 2L for GSC2 - fair bit of runoff
- GSC2 still has lots of leaves but they are not touching the pot anymore, she is getting taller.
- GSC is really happy with her leaves way up. Buds are getting bigger as well......slowly😳
June 11, Day 62
- Dry out day today.
- left them alone.
- GSC will remain by herself. Need to get the humidity up over the 53% though. Temp is fine at 79 degrees.
June 12, Day 63
- 8L mixture with Terpinator @ 3ml, BigBud, Rezin, Vitathrive @ 2ml, Sensyzime, Liquid Wt, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 1ml = 1350ppm and pH to 5.6
- GSC took 5L and GSC2 was 3L.......good runoff amounts from both.
- GSC2 taken off the milk crate today. Stripped more leaves as well.
Looking better at the end of the week👍
