1st Ever Grow, Trying Coco

[Cbdman]

I believe my CBD Compassion Lime is also, but her flower looks strange

 

[Dutchman1990]

Flowers and preflowers ! Your on the right track !

 

[Cbdman]

Everything is right on track , my autos seem to like the 24 hours of light a day. Still using nutrients at 1/2 strength. Each plant taking a gallon of water every other day. Tent temp 76 degrees. Just sitting back soaking up some of these cmh rays.

 

[Cbdman]

Well I am using 1/2 strength advanced nutrients following there hobby grow level.

So to 1 gallon of water I add
2 ml calimagic
7ml sensi coco bloom part a
7 ml sensi coco bloom part b
2 ml big bud
Just added this last one last watering
2 ml b52

This mix is now giving me a
693 ppm
With a 1386 EC

This is up from when I was only adding the big bud, my numbers were
610 ppm
1215 ec

Did I give a little to much
Looks like nute burn in pics

 

[Cbdman]

Well couldn't make a decision on what to do, so I left it up to the quarter. The quarter landed on heads so I flushed all three plants and giving a day before feeding tomorrow morning. Before I feed, I'm going to trim out some fan leaves to get a little more light to these buds. I think I'm going to dial back my nutes to about 500 ppm and 1000 ec.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Looks like mild nute burn. I would keep with the lower feed and feed every watering since your in coco. Less is more as they say!

For viewing your trichomes. Try to focus on the “calyx” trichomes. The fan leaves will ripen faster and if you go based off the fans it won’t be an accurate read of the true ripeness.

Doing well though CBD and keep it up! They are looking strong and healthy and should give you some lovely product soon enough !

Stay lifted brother

 

[Cbdman]

Took your advice with lower nutes
Thanks Dutchman 1990

59 days in, and i can honestly say the runt of the litter has caught up. i am having to bend that cbd plant aprox 3 feet to keep it away from the light.

Looking really nice Cbd. I’d say you got this grow in the bag lol. Also welcome to 420 magazine. If you do decide to try a dwc bucket. I think you will figure it out quick.

Thanks Icemann420, I've ran into a few probs. Wish it would have gone smooth thru the whole grow. Next I try to keep it error free. Lol. Wrote down my mistakes for next time.

 

[Cbdman]

Well started my 7 day flush, everything is going right as planned. Harvest time is approaching.

 

[Cbdman]

Well I flushed for 7 days and have taken my girls down. This has been a wild trip.
I have learned alot from all of the great members. I can thank you enough. I am going to estimate after loosing 75% due to drying ( water weight ) I'm going to end up with about 9 oz from my there plants. I will give a final weight in about 7 days.

 

[Cbdman]

Ok my final weight on my 3 plants is 6.8 onces.
Thanks for all the great advice.

I was just rereading through here and noticed you wrote down 2ml Big Bud per gallon.

If you check the bottle and ANs website it recommends 2ml/Litre. That means almost 4x the amount you are putting in should of been put in for accurate dosing.

I know you’ve harvested now and CONTGRATS!! But I just wanted to let you know for the next grow!! Hopefully it will help improve even more !

Great stuff man

I did see that recommendation, I had a problem with nute burn. I was using all the additives and A&B at 1/2 strength. So I did not know how to keep my ec and ppm down, so I just cut back on the additives. Advanced Nutes are strong. I was not sure if I should have been dialing my A & B back and use the additives more closer to 1/2 strength. I guess this is something I will have to try. Practice makes perfect. Lol
My wife tells me the Sour Diesel is harsh but the high is awesome. Lol, she asked when am I starting another grow.

Thanks for the thoughts Dutchman1990, it's something I will have to experiment with.

I run ANs full line in promix HP and have had pretty good success so far. All the bud boosters and additives shouldn’t give you a problem they should be added at full strength. Parts A + B I keep minimal unless I see the plant asking for more.

Any questions on your next round feel free to give me a shout! I’m going to be running ANs lineup for a while since I’m well stocked!

Hope your well
