This is my first grow and I'm starting it 7 weeks into veg.
Strain gorilla glue #4
day 60
1 gallon pots
Grown under four 4 ft t5 bulbs cool 6500k 20k lumens
water PH to 6.5 10 7.0 run off water has always been 6.7
Room temp 79 with a rh from 40-70
grown in super soil.
I cooked the soil for 2 month. I made 50 gallons so I divided the amendments accordingly. The soil could have been a little hot.
I used promix for my soil base. Here are the amendments.
Soil froze before I used it but all visual amendments were gone.
Soil smelled earthy.
I soaked 10 gorilla glue 4 seeds in willow water for about 5 hours. Put seeds in rapid rooters that were presoaked with willow water. They sprouted within a day and rooted within the week.
So I transplanted into solo cups with just some promix. And watered with aloe water. That gave me problems. Killed the first couple leaves and grew a green slimey substance in the soil.
I pulled the plugs. Carved away some of them roots and all. Flushed with PH 6.7 water. And transplanted into solo cups again. Plants sprung back within the week.
Around week 5 I transplanted into 1 gallon pots. 1/3 of the bottom my soil mix the rest promix. I used great white on the roots. Watered with an ACT using the worm castings and molasses. For 30 hours.
my next watering I used the ewc tea again about 5 days later.
Growth exploded in all but one of the plants. But nute deficiency started to become apparent. And escalate so I watered once with Alaska fish emulsions and once with Epson salt and dormite lime.
Nute problems appeared to spread. I noticed little white speckles on top of the leaves. Wiped them off and they were all covered again 2 hours later. So I sprayed with neem and wiped again.
They came back and I saw a black flying insect kinda like a punky. I diagnosed it as thrips and got
Captain Jacks dead bug brew with Spinosad. Follar fed and soil drenched with that. Most the speckles were gone then but I used neem again 2 days later then drenched the soil 3 days after that with captain Jacks.
