Shirley' First Grow! Soil - 450W LED - Autos

[KEEMOE]

How long are you gonna veg? Add them now if you plan to veg for the next two months, autos need to be in 18/6 to grow properly. And usually take 50-70 days depending on strain.

i was thinking 4/5 weeks veg because of the size of my tent, the site i got the blue cheese from said it took 10-11 weeks from germination. The royal cheese im getting as a seedling off a friend.

Blue cheese is a big yeilder, I believe when I grew it the cycle was 5 weeks of veg then it flowered. And I believe the website said germ to harvest was 70-80 days. Do you have another tent? Or light you could use for those? If not I would say start them a month before your next photo grow and they will be finished by the time you flip photos to flower

Took some more pics today =]



The Bad Azz Kush seems to be stretching taller than the ayahuasca already but still very early for them both.

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

Update time =]

i watered them today the Ayahuasca Purple is well under way. acouple of yellowy spots on acouple of the leaves but other than that she looks good =].
The Bad Azz Kush is moving along slowly behind the Ayahuasca, but is taller than her already.

i watered the Ayahuasca with 4ml canna a and b + 3ml Plant Magic Cal-Mag (hoping this will sort out the yellow spots) in 3L of water, the Bad Azz Kush got .5ml cal-mag with 3/4L water just because shes still small.

i dont know the Ph of the water im using at the minute, but ive ordered a tester and that should be here next week some time along with my humidity reader. The temp of the tent is between 20-25c.

 

[KEEMOE]

Looking good looking forward to see how they do

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

That time again, update time =]

ive been watching some videos on coco and how i should be watering it, so ive been watering daily recently.
The Bad Azz Kush had a little accident while watering the otherday where she fell over, no damage on to but think i fucked the roots as she hasnt grown much since.

im watering the Ayahuasca with 3L of water with 10ml canna A+B and 3ml plant magic cal-mag.
The Kush is getting 2L with 8ml A+B and 2ml cal-mag.

 

[KEEMOE]

Looking very happy! Yeah don't let coco dry out, I have done that a few times haha

 

[KoolaidmanKee]

Any update? I'd love to see how big they are now , I've started another journal

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

Sorry for the such delayed update, work and general life got in the way but here's what's gone done with the beauts!

Ayahuasca Purple

Bad Azz Kush

Yesterday I took the bottom stems off both plants and most of the bottom fan leaves. Both have been topped. The Ayahusca is 6 weeks 3 days and the Bad Azz is 6 weeks tomorrow, I have been watering them every 2/3 days, feeding canna a + b and plant magic cal mag once every three waters. Humidity is a bit of a problem for me, it's sitting between 75%-85%. Tomorrow I change the light cycle

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

1 week into flower and it looks like a jungle! they have both taken off in the last week. I need to take off some of the leaves but not sure to do it 2 or 3 weeks into flower?

i finally got some ph up so no doubt they're loving life lol, watering both with 3L water 8ml canna a+b, 3ml cal-mag as well as 3ml of ph up leaving it at 6.4. compared to the 3.3 they have been getting .

humidity is still a bit of a problem hitting 90% at night! I had/have two £1 dehumidifier thingys from Poundland but the white balls just turn into cement, got an aero 360 pure moisture absorber which looks like a Poundland one on steroids. Will see if it helps, any suggestions on how to lower it?

Bad Azz Kush

Ayahuasca Purple

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

The bottom branches on the ayahuasca are having a bit of trouble staying upright, should I chop them or pin them up? im not sure.

 

[Calvados]

Make sure they are in the dark as well.

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

I don't even open the tent after lights out lol

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

so week two of flower and everything looks good to me. humidity is still a shit, even when leaving the door open its still 80%. trimmed the bottom branches and leaves that wernt getting any light so well see how they do.

Ayahuasca Purple

Bad Azz Kush

Both before

Both after

stopping writing this as nobody is giving any advice

Keep it going. If not for you then for others. I just finished reading.

As for your humidity problem it looks like you've got your plants sitting in a tub, and that tub looks like it's got a bunch of water in the bottom from feeding. You shouldn't let your pots/plants sit in water (unless coco is different to soil in that regard?). Not only can it give you root rot but that heap of water is what's likely jacking up your humidity. Get the water out and see what happens to your humidity.

 

[ShirleyBigBud]

thanks for the reply, the pots arnt in the water they are onto of some plastic tubs for that reason, i empty the run off tray between waters, so the water level in it stays about the same. with it empty the humidity drops about 5%, i think its more the humidity of my bedroom upposed to the actual grow tent?

I don't know your environmental conditions so it could be your bedroom, or just the location you live. Try removing most of the water but not all to try and get it above 5% but not up to 80%. A water level somewhere it between a bunch of water and bone dry. Also try moving your humidity reader closer to the tops of the plants instead of sitting on top of the light for a more accurate reading of humidity at plant height. Hot/moist air rises? Maybe? Otherwise I'm out of ideas.
