Asia is looking better and fed plain water with ph level 8.4 Gorilla sprouted sometime today, also the royal runts has been curing for 4 days now with my auto burping spider farm jar
Why so high brother ur in cococoir you need to be at 6.2/6.5 PH no more or less
Gave Asia 12 cups of 7.6ph water with 10 millliters of bud bud burst and gave gorilla about enough water to moisten her
They have a beautiful color green
Thanks brother she still having yellow tip problems so still nervous with her
Is that the PH after adding the solution? U still in the vegetative stage ? Thatβs a flower nutrient for weeks 3-6 of flower . U be better to use a veg feed that has higher nitrogen levels . I would also lower the PH of solution mix to at least 6.3-6.5 .
Late veg stage, early flower stage thanks for the input because I really feel like I was doing something with the yellow tips on this one and my royal runtz didn't have this problem
U start using boosters after the plants stretch phase after week 4 in flower . U can cause nutrient lockout & burn . Plant needs a balanced feeding regiment . Flower needs lower nitrogen higher p & k . Generally u donβt start any bloom boosters until u see the first try buds form . Use a base flower nutrient & use booster week 4 - 7 as an additive . With the PH 7.4 will cause plant lockout where some nutrients arenβt absorbed. Growing organic in soil ph is good 6.5- 7
OK thanks again for input so my next feeding i should give her some fish emulsion to possibly help with the yellow tips
U welcome . I not being critical. Best to use a base nutrients for veg & bloom nutrients. Most are A&B . They will provide all the nutrients the plant will need . U can always use additives. That bud booster will work best weeks 4-7 when plant needs more phosphorus & potassium for bulking buds up in addition to the base nutrients. When mixing always use A then B same exact dose for each . Then u can add bud booster week 4-7 & PH after u mix . I like my PH to be around 6.3 for soil .
A lot of hydroponics nutrients after mixing will be around 5.9 & u can use PH up to get it to 6.3 - 6.5 & u be good . When using to much nitrogen in flower u will see really green leaves & plant wonβt have any fading & u will have that nitrogen taste in the smoke
Appreciate all the advice.
If u still in veg & the nitrogen is higher then the P & K u be ok . When u in flower stage u will see yellowing & that mayo cause the nitrogen is lower so the leaves will yellow. Any questions hit me up π€
Always gromie. I'm not sure if you've ever tried the i can grow can which is the Gorilla but from what I reviewed it shouldn't need anything but water. What's your take on it
Ur welcome and I didn't catch that i thought it was a mistake type but cannabee99 100%correct I'm soil it better to be in 5.8 to 6.5 but can push in flower to 6.7 at most once you keep it at 6.5 u will see instinct come back and a darker green I use spring water it 6.5 ph and 100PPM AND THAT WILL KEEP YOU FROM HURTING THE PLANTS which will help with nutrients intake
I not familiar with ican . A lot of breeders will say all u need is water . U can grow any strain with just plain water . Itβs how it turns out that matters & if u happy with it . There are good methods to use without so much nutrients. U can make compost teas for microbes & just top dress the soil with nutrients every 2 weeks . U just need to brew the tea for 24-48 hours & there is fermenting way to make nutrients with stuff around the house . U can research compost tea varieties of ingredients
I donβt grow indoors in summertime , to hot & not worth the price to run ac . If price per pound was still over $4000 would be .i grow outdoors & grow organically. Lot less work & no mixing nutrients. I like to take my summers off . I thinking about getting the AC Infinity new Terraform 8 heate AC combo with humidifier & dehumidifier built in with one hose attachment. I run there heater now , my tent in garage . U can also research Korean Farming & learn some techniques on how to make fertilizer with plants around the house
So yes im pretty new to the grow life. I've had knowledge about it but wanted more, so I went and got myself a grow bible called The Cannabis Grow Bible by Greg Green. Over 400 pages of knowledge. Highly recommend for new growmies that wants more knowledge
That a good book
I've found that keeping grow diarys vital so u can remember what u did last . Cause I think when u have a problem u can go a step back and find your problem.but yes if I didn't have schooling or this app and u tube I'd be screwed!
Is that an app
Indybayhttps://www.indybay.orgPDFThe Cannabis Grow Bible a free bible. I also use plant track app called plntrk app
Yes I agree I use an app to log all my data also this app and YouTube. That's how I made it to harvest with my royal runtz.
So kalini Asia is not an auto plant and I was wondering why she wasn't flower. I did my research and found out that she is a photo so tomorrow im going to switch over to flower. Also my reading from my spider farm soil reader
I had a auto that didn't go into flower once .I'm just working it like a photo.
I've never done photo before so im not exactly sure what to do besides switching my lights to 12/12
Yea switch to 12/12 it will bud I do it the slow way down to 12/12 I try to match sunlight as best I can .but if my plant was as tall as yours I'd go straight to 12/12 .they ussally dbl in size sometimes Tripple the size in flower .u never know u might like photos better ussally u get more .but I like to put a cpl autos in the mix .but a auto will go into bud as well if u switch light cycle.it should take a week or so and u should start getting pistols .id slowly transition into a bloom fertilizer extra cal mag near week 5 week 5 photos usdally starving for cal mag
Today I gave Asia a gallon of water ph 6.9. Check the water run off, an the ph was 7.4. To me she seems to be doing a lot better from the last post with the yellow tips. Gorilla is getting bigger and got her forever home all ready for her
Thatβs clean did ya train it to be like that
Just tied them down because how tall they got and can't raise my lights any higher
Thatβs good tho fr light hitting the whole plant should bud up good how long does that strain usually take
She seems to like the adjustment and yes the whole plant gets light. from what I read anywhere 9 to 10 weeks but this is my first photo plant so not very sure
Cool good luck sure she will do just fine Iβm gonna be trying out some regular photos this yea and want try find regular autos so I can find me a male auto and try some things out
Been lacking this weekend son was home for a visit. But watered Asia today and gave her a gallon of ph 6.6 with 15 mil of bud burst. Gorilla gotten a pint of 6.3 ph and 3 drops of fish emulsion. Overall they are seeming to be doing great
I believe gorilla started to flower on me early. Asia is looking better, her tricholmes(spelling) are looking amazing. What is everyone opinion on these pics
Clear still gota couple weeks
For sure a few more weeks
Today I cut off Asia water supply cutting her down tomorrow morning to dry the rest of her buds. The branches im cut off earlier last week are fully dried trimmed and placed in the curing jar. Gorilla is doing great but a little sad she has little balls. So Gorilla is a male plant with seeds. Once these plants are done going to clean the equipment and start new seeds
You got ur light way way to high brother you you can tell you plants are stretching really bad and out growing stem to leaf ratio
I tied most all the stems down to spread them apart because they were all really close together
Oh ok sorry I didn't see that my bad
No reason to be sorry brother
I just water and repinned her lollipop and FIM TRAINING on my big one i can't wait to see how that comes out I did it on my auto i see 4 colas, but I can't tell but I might have 6 colas total growing out.I will know in the next day or so
Nice
Couple things could be possible, what kind of nitrogen are you using. If itβs Ammonium nitrogen than it can cause acidification of your soil. So use some cal mag water at a higher ph than you normally would. Itβs getting too much nitrogen what ever kind it is. Because of the nitrogen itβs using up the magnesium to get that deep green color. So cut back in feeding and give some cal mag water π
Thanks for the advice. I use fish emulsion for the veg stage and bud burst for flowe stage. My soil is bio365 flower and tap water normally ph between 6.2 - 7.3
So next feeding should I leave out the bud burst and just water with ph a little higher than normal
Yup, that stuff is for weeks 4&5 of flower. Too much potassium can compete with calcium and magnesium causing deficiency.
Like I said, couple of possibilities could be causing. Ph. Too much nitrogen Too much potassium Kind of up to you to choose based on what you have fed it.
Lights can be tricky , with bar style l.e.ds,,, I keep mine around 14 inches to 18 inches from the top of the plant to the bottom of the light. And moving with it as it grows staying at14 inches to 18 inches the whole way .Sativas Stretch really tall ,but I have some gg4 sherbert from fast buds that is saying it has a super Stretch to but it's a indica ,for somereason they call it the gorilla Stretch, so it's know to Stretch like a sativa some what. What distance are yr lights at from top of plant to bottom of light ?
