My girls started showing sex around day 22 and then a week later were in flower so they've been at it for about a month. In that time, though, they've been pretty stagnant growth wise - thought maybe they were using energy to get dense until the leaves started turning at a healthy clip.
I...
Gotcha. I'll get the water up and see how it treats me.
They girls were super healthy through veg and early flower at 1/2 gal of water - looked just like this - which is why I didn't think anything of it until recently as things started turning. It would make sense it's not enough and there...
I'm running 5 gallons. I've only been doing .5 gallon because the pots end up being pretty heavy after the watering. After three days they're light again.
What do you think is the move, then? Increase amount and/or frequency of watering?
1 gal each every 2days?
2 gal each every 3 days?
Gotcha, so I might be able to up the feeding and water and they should be able to take it.
I've been giving them 1/2 gal of water with kelp, labs, & molsasses every three days and food every 6 days. So I can up that to at least a gallon of water and possibly increase the feeding to every three...
Gotcha. Ok. Flowering has def been tricky. I don’t know if I’ve underfed or if I caused a lockout. Right I’m trying to wrap my head around how quickly they uptake nutrients in flower and how much they need
You think? Mephisto has both strains ripening at 60-70 days and I'm seeing a majority of milky trichomes? Then again, this is my first run, so I really don't know shit.
I haven’t tried any teas yet. But I do have some LABS brewing so I can charge up the microbial life. What kinds of results are you getting with the teas?
Before popping the seeds I amended the soil with some myco. Having a strong fungal network was a priority for me going into this.
Next run I’m moving into a 30 gallon. That’s the one thing l’m kicking myself for. Luckily the worms are alive and doing their thing so I think they’ll like moving up to the 30gal.
There is some chlorine but not much per the water quality report. It’s more about being certain any contaminants...
I added it because I saw what looked to be a calcium deficiency. I was seeing orange spots on a few leaves here and there.
i went light on the lime. Giving the plants a total of 4.25 tbsp (each) over the course of 1 week during waterings.
I’m going to give them 2 tbsp/gal of 4-8-4 with the...
This is my first grow and I've done a ton of research but I'm hoping to validate some of my logic. So any feedback you can provide is appreciated.
I'm trying to decide if I should feed the girls again. It's been 7 days since their 2nd feeding with Down to Earth 4-4-4. Now that they're in...
