Looking good mate. Atleast the gimpy one came back with vengance hehe. This Substrate you are using. Is it like Coco where you HAVE to water everyday ? or is it kinda 50/50 coco soil watering schedule ?

Thanks for responding @Th3Grow3rNooB . I use Roots Organic soil. Even though I have been growing for 10 years, I now found out to let the soil dry before watering/feeding rather than using a schedule.The white coating is D. Earth as I had a bad infestation of gnats.

Today the ladies are on Day 29 from sprout and the little girl is Day 8.

By not using a watering/feed schedule the leaves are no longer drooping. I will feed tomorrow. Thank you again @Azimuth for the information.

Nice IC! They are looking much better.

Don't be afraid to let that big one dry a bit extra. The gimp is almost perfect.

Excess water in the soil displaces oxygen, and every molecule of nutrient a plant ingests must be attached to an oxygen molecule for a plant to recognize it as food (hence the term aerobic), so too much water in the soil directly transfers into a hungry plant.

When growers say they need more oxygen to the roots, this is what they are talking about.

Looking good Brother! Im glad you popped the 3rd seed. Gonna be the spoiled child!

Oh Wow! Shes starting to rip. Look at those leaves rising! She's a goer . Even Gimpy is taking off. Nice work!

Totally agree, those leaves are on the rise. This growth journey is so awesome to watch. And yeah, Gimpy’s got some fight in her. Cheers!

Gnats can be a sign the soil is too wet so you could let it dry out a bit to help. If you insist on killing the bastards many have had good success with Mosquito dunks.

Thanks for the tip, Azimuth! I've been battling those pesky gnats too. I'll definitely give the dunks a try. You always have a wealth of knowledge to share. Much appreciated!

Today the ladies are on Day 30 and will be fed 1.5 grams of MegaCrop. The other lady is on Day 9 and will get a 1/2 gram of MegaCrop.

@PotPlotPilot
Thoughts?

Correction- I did not feed the coffee container baby as there is enough nutrients in the soil for now. I will next time.

Today the ladies are on Day 32 and have taken her feed well. The other lady banana purple punch is on Day 11 and has only water to drink.

The small weird one is doing great. All 3 will be allowed to dry out some and then fed.

Today is Day 33 for the 2 larger plants and the coffee cup is Day 12. There appear to be doing well since the last watering.

Should I remove the yellowing leaves or just leave them be?

Thoughts on their progress?

Don't pluck leaves my friend.
There is nutrients still available in them and some photosynthesis still occurring.
If there is an issue you just cause it to travel.
Also you can see if things are improving or getting worse by looking at them.
Gravity does my defoliation.
Looking good.

I'm seeing a bit of 'excess nitrogen claw' especially on the right one. Left looks a bit droopy. I'd definitely leave the yellowing leaves on as Bill says they're nutrient sinks for the plant to draw on.

If you pluck them the plant will just take what it needs from the next leaves up. Maybe the left one needs more N. Are you feeding them differently?

 

[Ice cream]

Both are being fed the exact same amount @Azimuth .

 

[Azimuth]

Hmmm. Wonder why one's showing not enough N while the other displays too much.

 

[Ice cream]

Who knows. Remember one of them was acting weird from the start. Maybe instead of increasing the feed next feeding I’ll keep it the same? In the past I’ve increased the nutes by a 1/2 gram weekly what do you think?

Thanks @Azimuth

Well I decided to germinate my last auto. It is California Snow.

This hobby is still addictive after 10 years

Hmmm. Don't know. I don't use MC but maybe @bluter can weigh in.

Are you using the 2 part flowering nutrients by MC.
Or just the regular veg to harvest nutrient.
I found it very high in N.
The one part MC. I mean.
Probably why your clawing and getting a possible lock out.
I’m augmenting my MC to compensate.
I can’t get the second flowering nutrient from MC up this far north.
Just 2 cents.



Stay safe

I’m using the veg to flower nutrients. This is weird for me too. Not sure as I mentioned reduce, keep the same or increase nutes?
