It's been quite a journey, the (somewhat)grow journal of xstation420

[xstation420]

So unfortunately I am already in the flowering stages of my white widows life. I know it's kinda late to start a grow journal, but I thought I could get some help finishing my girls, and improving future grows.

So far I have messed up so much wether it's been over watering, nute burn, bad soil, bad transplants, the list goes on. I've been learning from my mistakes though.

I started with 6 plants, 5 Dutch passion white widows, and a g13. About a month ago my cat got into my grow cabinet and dug up to of my white widows(I was pissed). Then another one was lost due to fatal stunting. I germed another great white shark seed and have it going 24 with cfls, then 2 white widow and G13 flowering under a 400w hps.

The co-op I go to has some huge clones right now and so I'm going to go get one tomorrow and put it in a bubble bucket I built(oh by the way I'm switching to hydro after this grow). I'm going to put the clone on 12/12 right away because they're so big and they have a lot roots. I'm going to take pictures of all the aforementioned tomorrow for you guys.

Well if you have any questions or comments please reply, I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions.

The nodes are spaced out alot if the nodes were closer together you would have got a big cola.You will still get some big buds but the cola will not be big.

I was growing with cfls in my main grow cabinet and the plants weren't doing good so about a month into the grow i bought the 400w, and i let them stretch, i just wanted them not to die. haha.

this is the clone i got from my co-op, its tangerine kush. they put it in a bag and all the leaves wilted. I used 2 tsp of nova bloom and 2 tsp of liquid karma.
all four now

 

[xstation420]

My tangerine kush has picked up a lot since being planted.

Today Everything is fine, Ph is normal, soil plants don't need watering yet.

 

[xstation420]

I checked Soil water levels, they were fine. Had fungus gnat on my bubble bucket I hate these things. I poured DE/gnatrol ove my rock wool and into my bucket to prevent them from returning. I'm also going to put a layer of sand over my soil plants to prevent them from being infected again.

Thanks for the support. I really enjoy growing. Even when I have problems it's great to fix them.

yesterday i watered my soil plants. my larger one's fan leaves are yellowing, is that normal? the g13 is done growing and is budding now.

 

[wyteberrywidow]

Fan leaves yellowing usually mean lack of nitrogen.What nutes are you using?What is the n-p-k on it?

Some times i foilier fead with stay green mixed with mild veg food..Also a product called organicide, a fish oil based product that totally keeps the plants grean and healthy longer..also helps with many pests and mold... u dont use the last 3-4weeks.

I checked out that organocide and it said the the active ingredient is sesame oil and the rest is inert fish oil. Can't I use sesame oil. Whatever it's cheap enough.

yesterday i watered my two white widows which are starting to suck up a lot of water, and today i watered my g13. I'm using a moister meter, it helps against overwatering.
My buds on my main WW are getting a bit bigger and starting to get some visible trichomes. I can wait til harvest. Ill put some pics up today.

Close up of my best WW
Not a lot of growth above ground, but the roots are getting longer
My G13, the two stems are almost touching the light but i have a air cooled hood w/ glass so they they seem happy, bud sites are starting to grow now, i really hope they fill out into two big colas

 

[xstation420]

I checked my water levels today and they are all sucking up a lot more water than ever, ill have to check them again tomorrow. I find it amazing though, how the buds look bigger every time i check them.
