Hey guys n gals.
Gonna start putting all my stuff in one place instead of it being scattered all over the place..

I'm a Dwc grower using Advanced Nutrients.

I've grown on n off for the last 15yrs but I'm in no way an expert lol I still get fuckups now n then.

Will be posting my grow shortly and will keep everything in here from now on.

Thanks for stopping by & Stay Safe

Currently growing Lemon Cake from Heavyweight seeds, had a few teething problems with her in veg but she's back on track and 9days into flower now.
Nothing major has went wrong with this grow but had troubles working out what her feed needed to be.

From the very beginning the ppm's shot up daily so I presumed she was leaching nutes back into the rez and I thought I was underfeeding.

I took the EC right up to 2.4 and she didn't show any signs of burn or anything really. Only thing I saw was her turning a really limey yellow/green.

After alot of research and asking questions I flushed her with ph'd tap water for 28hrs and yesterday I made up a fresh batch of nutes at 1.36ec and thank god that this morning it had dropped for the first time in 5weeks.

She only dropped it by 0.1-0.2ec but hey I'm not complaining lol.

I'm just happy that I've finally managed to get the nutes where there supposed to be so hopefully now I can relax and hopefully you guys will see her finish.

Here's my nute lineup..
I've always used Advanced Nutrients sensi grow/bloom but this time I got Connoisseur to see if there's any/much difference.

Those pictures show the limey color , but in a few days she should be back to normal again.

Forgot to say

Tent is a 120x120x200

Lemon Cake Day 13 of 12/12
ec 1.3 ph 6.0

Temps 78-80f

She's nice n squat in stature (24inch) which I didn't expect from a 80% sativa but there's still a fair bit of stretch left so I might see her reach 3ft tall yet.

Once every 2-3 days I clear away some inside fans covering lower budsites , I do it with all my grows and it makes a massive difference to yields.
I don't trim any lower branches whatsoever , I leave her be and don't care is some nugz are smaller coz I still get enough light down to them that there not a waste of energy for the plant and not a waste of time for me.


Here's a couple pics ,check the thickness of her roots already.

Rip lemon cake....
Must have had a light leak because that's 2 Hermies from 2 different seed banks..

Have since taped up all windows and doors and completely removed any leaks I may have had in the room ,, the tent is a cheap n nasty one from Amazon and tbh it looks like the milky way from outside the tent when lights on. All side zips and every sown seam has light escaping so completely removing the leaks into the room the tents in should stop this from happening again...

Next Attempt
Same Set-up, Dwc, An's Connoisseur
400w hps for grow ,600w for flower.

For the next round I have already germinated 1x GHS church & 1x Bakery seed co's Fruit Tree...

I know nothing about either except the video GHS has on YouTube and the seedbanks info where I bought them..

I haven't found much for Fruit Tree ,most I saw were cali-connections and a totally different strain from what I have here so going in blind with this one.



Today is day 9 for the Church and day 6 for the Fruit Tree since sprouting up through the rockwool.
First few days went fine on just tap water , usually after 3to6days I introduce nutes but only add a few ml of a+b to the Res. (Normally that's fine)

This time I did the exact same thing , I added 5ml each part to 17litres of water which increased my EC from (0.53 church) (0.42 fruit tree) to (0.75 church) (0.64 fruit tree)

They didn't like that this time, maybe too early perhaps.
The EC never rose in either of the buckets but the seedlings exhibited signs they weren't liking something.

I subsequently removed all nutes and gave just ph'd tap water for 24hrs then I went in the next day at 2ml each part in 17litres which raised EC from about 0.53 to 0.65 with the church and 0.56 to 0.69 with the fruit tree.

Both tanks if I'm correct should have about 88-95ppm of nutes , both ph's are 5.75 , Res temps are 22-24c

Roots are growing nicely and are pristine white, no smells either.

The wouldn't imagine the EC would show much at this stage because there tiny but they don't look healthy I'm worried im gonna mess this up again.

I apologize if I left anything out , if you guys know what I should do or try can you leave a comment please.
