1st grow with BIOCANNA nutes...

Hola!
I'm not smoking pot but i still enjoy it!
So i'll try to grow some for my dudes.
As this is my first grow, im not a pro at all, so all the help and tips are appreciated.
Im growing 2 "white widdow" bagseeds and 3 "the church" feminised seeds.

This is the place where i started everything.



4 x 24w CFL's (1200 lumens each) and reflector - i made it from cheap soviet oven frying-pan.



This is how i got humidity - arount 70%.



So, there are my babies. Large ones are white widdow and small ones the church.



Closer look at ww. (day 10)



So... I had to move them to larger place... Closet is 4.4 x 2.2 x 6,8 ft.

I used polythene...



Then i used thin foam with folium for walls and ceiling. And some foam un the floor.



There is 400w HPS (55,000 lumens). Not sure if it's enough for 5 plants... ??!!





200 cfm fan was too loud for my apartment so i had to insulate it. Used some foam and stone wool. It works just PERFECT! Only sound from the movement of the air left...





used some rubber to get rid of the vibration. For odour i bought 4x12 activated carbon filter. Dont know how it works yet... Soon...




This is part of my climate contol. With this device i controll the speed of fans. When temperature is 85 it runs at max speed but in the dark period its running very slowly.





Fan and filter are on 2nd floor, everything else on the 1st floor...



So, plants are in their final house now! How far from my plants should be 400w HPS?



Humifider - boought it on ebay for 20$... Works well enough...



Im feeding them wit BIOCANNA nutrients. Bought them in amsterdam. maybe you know something more about the? The guy in growshop sait that they are very good and i will be able to grow without PH adjusting...



There are some pics 2 days after i first used nutes. I think i overdosed a bit...
What do you think?





Some random pictures just before transplantig into bigger pots...







Right after transplanting them...






Tips and advice appreciated... PEACE!

Looks that i had to use less nutes. Will use pure water for next days. Will make some pics and upload asap...

Wow.. realy nice for the first time! I would like to use that kind of "house" too

nice setup.....i've been trying to get some of canna's bio line but im having trouble getting the nutes stateside

I have some problems with my Whit Widdow. This one has some weird spots... I think they want less nutes... Guys?!?



This is my 2nd ww and looks great. It has some brown spots on one leaf. Ill probably cutt it off... 1st leaf.





Day 13. Babies are looking good! (The Church - feminised)







Humidity is around 50% all the time.
Temperature - 75° - 80° when the lights are on. 65° - 75° when the lights are off.

Any ideas about the spots?

PEACE!

less is always more!

they tell you to use a certain amount to sell more product

always use half or 1/4 strength and progress when they grow!!!

Thanks guys! At the moment im only giving pure water to recover.
I will update soon again!

PEACE!

One of platns has only brighter spots on leafs. Looks a bit weird.
But second one has some brown. Looking terrible... (only bottom leafs)
Take a look guys!

I was lucky today and got pH meter for myself!
I paid for it 50 USD. It was not the cheapest but still not very sierious. Guy in the shop told me that it will work perfect for atleast 6 months! Its enough for me!
Here you can see pH level of my water (7,93) and water + nutrients (7,62).
Now it is tome for some reading! Not sure how to get it down. If i will find all the info I need I will flush all my plants tomorrow.
Hmm. Should i flush also The Church plants? They seem to be very healthy...





I also got this pH tester for soil but somehow I dont believe it. I paid 10 USD for it. What do you think guys?





This is ww with brown spots. Bottom leafs are looking very sad... But in total plant looks quiet good... Check it out!







This is ww whith weird spots all around... It looks better now but leafs are curling a bit. Why? Is it normal?



The Church plants - Day 14! Looking good!








PEACE!

I went to pet shop and they had both PLUS and MINUS pH!
Then i flushed my plants with 6,5 pH water. Now pH of the soil is 6,6.

White widdow is looking better now. Only 2 bottom leafs got yellow and totally dry.
2nd White willdow - the one with curling leafs. Temperature is ok in there but those leafs are still curling. Will check it later again to see if it is getting better after the flush!

Last 3 pictures - The church (16 days) They are gorwing SOOOOO FAST! Im feedeng them with nutes from day 10!

a good idea is to flush plants with a gallon of water with HALF A TEASPOON EPSOM SALT i had the same problems u did im still fixin em check out my journal may help u out more


https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/56223-my-first-try.html

u probly gave me too much nutes and ur over watering em, jsu leave them alone, dont give em no more nutes for 1-2 weeks, feeed once every 3 days @ shud be fine,t hos ebottom leaves die off as the pant matures jus leave em alone, dont worry a smuch, weeed can take a pounding

Not looking good anymore... Spots are back and even more intense. Only on one plant... After flush everything was looking good. pH of the soil is 6,6. I am not giving any nutes to White Widdow plants.

This is the plant with spots. :hmmmm:







This is the plant with curling leafs. Still curling and i dont know why. Temperature seems to be ok...





The Church plants (day 1. Looking very good in my opinion! What do you thing guys? Is the size good for 18 days?







PEACE

As I thought my pH meter is not so stable. I caliburated it 5 days ago and today i did it again. In 7,01 liquid it showed 7,20...

i'll give this a bump and mention that Biocanna says not to worry about the PH of their nutrients; since they are vegan organic their nutrient works different than conventional nutrients.

Anybody else use the BioCanna?

did you adjust the Ph?

thanks
