Grow Timeline (30 updates)
The plants look great. They're starting to grow new sets of leaves. I watered the whole pot today, till runoff, for the first time. I was only watering around the base of the starter plug at first to encourage root growth.
starting noticing little signs of deficiency, like purple stems and the leaves color being pale. I now know when growing in Coco you have to start getting nutrients in a little earlier than I did. My run off is 6.4 and 600ppm. ππ»This is fun learning about these plants.
I feel like purple stems is a potassium deficiency
looks a lot like mine (but yours looks better) ππ Pretty sure I made the same mistake and wasn't giving enough nutrients.
Usually it's phosphorus, but it could also just be genetics.
purple genetics shouldn't show until last few weeks if flower, anytime before it will be a deficiency... check perfect gardens, that guy has some really good info on toxicity and deficiency
the new growth is definitely greener. plants were hungry. gave them their first full feed from general hydroponics light feed chart. I was giving only half feed. they seem to like it. I increased the light to 69 percent today. they seem to like the lighting, evidenced by the short internodal length.
started week 4 feedings. increasing micros. run off was 702 ppm 6.3-6.4 pH. means the plants are hungry and still actively feeding. high pH means I need to continue with the feeding solution in the lower pH range to compensate for coco buffer.
so, I have been watering/feeding everyday now using general hydroponics feeding chart. I'm using the recommended dose for week 4, late veg. The plants are responding wonderfully. Even got their color back. I've learned you should definitely be watering/feeding more when growing in straight Coco. The run off was lower EC than the input and pH is still high at 6.4, but acceptable.
The Galaxy Fuel is a monster. The two plants have filled my 4x4x6.5 tent. I'm going to have to tie down the top of the Galaxy Fuel to keep it from hitting the light. Roots were showing on the top of the plants, so I buffered some Coco with Cal-mag and added to the top of the pots.
Beast of a plant!
huge! π―π«£π
The hybrid is all cloudy trichomes. The Indica is mostly cloudy with some clear trichomes. I'm thinking 7-10 days on the hybrid and 10-14 on the Indica. I will begin final flushing tomorrow.
really is this a auto??? mine kinda looking like this
I asked cause of the white stigmas and I haven't grown autos before this run
Yes, they are both autos. They put out white pistils while they are still bulking and producing resin. They'll stop growing white pistils when they enter full ripening phase.
2 more weeks
I can't believe I made it this far. I can't wait to smoke these babiesπ¨π€
Crazy how long some of them take but tou can't rush them or they don't fill in good ,I love how you stuck through and waited till week 15 bro good job man I bet that took some patience but look at the reward ya know and I have one that's filling in like that at first yr thinking there going to be airy as hell n then the cylaxes keep swelling and end up w a phat long cola ,more sativa like but it's crazy I have a indica dominate plant r now that is doing this like a sativa and filling in w long cylaxes crazy but so worth it !!!
Trim jail is a real thing. Wifey and I have been trimming all day and we're only done with half of one plant. We're going to have to harvest the Pepper Gas tomorrow.
I've been trimming for a month. had 16 mature all at the same time...I feel your pain
How did they turn out? Are you still curing or did you do a tester?
It turned out great. Me and my wife been testing it for sure. We just broke out the best stuff that I had in the grove bags. It's better than I expected. The potency and flavor is right on.
Pepper Gas was harvested today. Her buds are nice! Both plants are strung up in the tent. The trellis made a great way to hang all the branches and keep them separated from each other. Filled up almost the whole trellis though. π€
nice harvest π
niiiice, that all from one plant? that's a lot lol, just started my first grow a few weeks ago and hoping to get a harvest like that in a couple months or more
It's two plants. Good luckπ
thank you! good luck with the drying and curing βοΈ
Looking good π€©
Successfully completed my first grow. I got some beautiful buds. Wifey and I have already been smoking some of course and I'm very satisfied. We have almost a pound and a freezer full of larf to make hash. Yes, I made my own trim binπ€π€£π. I'll make a better one next time.π¨π€
Thatβs awesome congratulations. Thanks for sharing your journey. π
Congrats on the beautiful grow π«‘
happy and healthy π―π€©
