Since I'm playing catch up with documenting my first grow cycle, I'm going to combine weeks and just give updates. I mentioned in the last weekly comment about adding the wicking bases and how that can be potentially problematic. Well here's where I noticed the issue but mostly with the Orange Sherbet sativa. I started noticing changes in color and leaves that didn't look good to me. Fortunately, I have a couple of great friends who also grow and have been able to take advantage of their knowledge and experience along the way. I highly recommend doing this if you have friends who also grow. Anyway, I had one of my friends come over and it was determined that the issue was due mainly to overwatering. We decided that with the wicking bases in addition to the humidity level in the tent, that the plant was staying too wet. Catching this quickly and addressing it is huge with autos since they tend to be more delicate that regular plants (as I understand things anyway). To address the overwatering issue, I immediately stopped using the wicking bases and let the plants dry out for about a week. I did no watering at all for the week but kept the humidifier going. That really helped correct what was going on. I then decided that I was no longer going to use the wicking bases at all and only do top watering. You'll see as I move forward with documenting this grow cycle, that I changed my mind again on this once the plants went into flower. But hey, what do you expect, this was my first ever grow.

Cuttings are growing very fast, we added 2 more lights for a total of 800 W led grow light. On day 11 since have been put in the box we decided to switch to flow as we tought cuttings has reached the right dimension to fullfil the box. Still using only pH 6.5 water with no nutrients

The ladies are coming along beautifully. I did a flush last week and switched the nutrients. I also did a little defoliation and the heads are starting to develop nicely.

1 Liter abgestandenes Wasser PH reguliert auf 6,0 verteilt auf alle drei Pflanzen gegossen Eine Pflanze hatte zu dem Zeitpunkt ganz merkwürdig ihre Blätter ab geknickt. Glaube der große Lüfter macht mir Probleme in meinem Zelt. Noch dazu die fehlende Abluft und alles

Today was "the day", I had to select some ot them for reason of space and discretion and the selected plants have been moved to bigger pots, as it follows: Do-Si-Dos (auto), clay pot about 15L = 10cm height (the other one showing already pre-flowering was discarded) Cookies Gelato, 9,5L pot = 10cm height White Widow, 9,5L pot = 11cm height 2x ICE, 9,5L pot + 12,5L pot for the second = 11-12cm height (I kept both because they were both amazing!) The choice of the pot volume was based on the expected height to be discrete, which should be max 80cm and ChatGPT helped me to calculate the pot volume (it suggested me 7,5 to 10L), but I was slightly more generous especially with the auto-flowering. Last year my Sticky Orange auto got the best yield with the same clay pot, so I tried the same :P

Moby dick Problems with the strong light presses him to the ground. The internodes are very short, which gives me a lot of trouble. ---- Super Lemon Haze - Visually everything is OK ---- Y griega Visually everything is OK, but I see an overdose of something that causes dullness, too green color and fragility

There's a blank week, sorry about that. There are detailed pictures and explanations of the current situation. At this point, the older plant seems to be doing fine. However, the younger plant's growth has definitely slowed down. Suspecting potassium deficiency, that's why I increased the nutrient amount. But K deficiency might not be the only thing that's wrong. My pH levels should be fine, got a new meter and did calibrations regularly.

Week 10: 20/4 light schedule, 150 mp water per plant 2x, no fertilization anymore. Day 65: Next week Tueasday/beggining week 11/ we need to harvest because they will come from the council to check the house😂 Well, the previous one finished in 69 days, but I think they won't be properly ready by next week. I tried it and made me high anyways. I would give at least 2 weeks more to be done. Tomorrow I will check the trichomes with magnifying glass. They are beautiful stinky girls. Flowers are getting thicker and pistils are getting brownish. Day 66: I checked the trichomes with magnifying glass and it will be ready by next Tuesday. 7 days left with this day. They are beautiful just check in the video (Day 66). Day 67: It is crazy the last 3 days was so hot here in London. Today was 38 degrees!!!!!! Poor plants even with ventilation it goes up to 30-31 degrees. Well, it is alright because direct ventilation goes on so they won't be cooked. 😓😛 Day 70: It is the last day when they receive water and they just get once and half of the daily intake. 2 days before harvest I will not water them. Harvest day is on Tuesday 30th of July when they are 72 days old. I have checked the trichomes all good they are matured nicely cloudy so now it is very strong. They are very stinky girls 😋 Day 71: No more water for them..... Tomorrow is harvest day!!!!!😋

Flushed one for a week and now into darkness. The last two that started flower under the cheap LEDs need a bit longer. They will need another three weeks. The one plant looks really pretty and smells great. The upside is I don't have to trim them all up at the same time. Looking forward the the cure. Cheers

Today is their first day out, they aren’t loving it. Hopefully they’ll adjust. Has any one used King Crab before?

This week saw an increase in flower sites and the start of the bud formation. Really good to see her take her strides. I have been mixing GHE Flora coco series and following dosage for 15L but using 20L of water so almost 3/4 of recommended dose and found that it was dialing in nicely. Included calmag from GHE starting this week to give extra dose of calmag since growing under LED lights.
