G.I. Jose Grow

[GIjose]

Hows everyone doing!! Well Week 2 of flowering is in the books! I am needing some help though. I think one of my plant is a hermi!! Can you guys and gals take a look and tell me what you think?



I know that sometimes a plant might seem like it's growing balls but then it would Sprout pistils. Tell me what you guys think.

It’s hard to say, it does look like a male, but give it time to fully show the gender

At least it's just 1 plant..

Good morning everybody! so it turns out I have two males in my grow both of them are blue Hawaiian. For those that are interested I did a short video on how do I identify males and the development of my rootball. that most of all really concerned me. I'll put some pics down below the fact of it normally I graduate from Solo Cup play my way towards my final pot usually that consists of four transplants. As an experiment on this grow I went straight from my Solo Cup to my final pot which really stunted the development of my root ball as you can see from the pictures. Cheers!

Unfortunate about the males! Unless that’s what a person is looking for! Then it’s a good thing!

Two out of the 3 were male, I would have preferred they were female..lol thanks for checking in on me. Cheers bro!

 

[Backlipslide]

Lol yeah man! Growing regular seeds is a bummer for that reason. Normally people will start with 6 regulars and end up with 3 maybe 4 but getting all 6 is very unheard of. If they do get 6 they should go buy a lottery ticket!

Well another week down! This is week 3 of flower the girls all right on schedule! I have one more week to go for their stretch, after that I will defoliate again to allow the light to penetrate to the lower buds. Has anyone ever used molasses in there flowering? If so what kind of glasses do you use and how do you feed it to your plants? Hope everyone's grows are going well. Cheers -G.I.JOSE

Add molasses at a rate of 1 to 3 tablespoons to 1 gallon of fertilizer for best results. Molasses can also be added to water and sprayed on plant leaves or poured on the soil. When the molasses is sprayed directly on plant leaves, the nutrients and sugar are absorbed quickly, and nutrients are immediately available.

Your plants look good, well into flower. I’m excited to see some big colas!

Any type of molasses?...like store brand?!

 

[Backlipslide]

Although any type of molasses will normally contain some sulphur, some molasses made from sugar cane can have sulphur dioxide added, which is why it’s called sulphured. The sulphur dioxide acts as a preservative and an anti-microbial agent to keep the raw cane fresh until it is processed. Sulphur dioxide, however, has a side-effect that makes it unsuitable for our purpose, it also kills the beneficial microorganisms in the soil. So if you’re getting molasses for growing cannabis, make sure that it is both organic and unsulphured.

There are also different types, or “grades”, of molasses, from lighter coloured molasses that is pure sugarcane syrup, to darker molasses and then blackstrap molasses which is denser and thicker than the other types. Blackstrap molasses has undergone multiple boiling and extraction processes, so that it has the highest concentration of vitamins, micro and macro elements. It is very rich in calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and other valuable elements.

 

[Backlipslide]

Blackstrap molasses is the most common and most beneficial to be using

Week 4 flower! The girls are looking good!

Week 6 down, I introduced overdrive to the girls yesterday. I'm hoping that the buds will thicken up a little more. Cheers!-G.I.JOSE

What’s the height of your light to the plant on the left on the gixer side, compared to the tall plant on the right side of the gixer side. I’m thinking the plant on the left is farther away from the light and is happier then the plant that’s closer to the light.

 

[GIjose]

The lights are 24" away

Week 7 down! both crows seem to be having some kind of deficiencies. I also found mold on one of my plants. I wanted to clipping that off and separating it from the rest of the girls. I also saw some of the tips turning brown on some of the plants so I resorted to finding the Advanced Nutrients watering schedule. the website stated for me to give to liters per plant of water and food every other day. This caused my plants to become waterlogged oh, you can see the drooping leaves. I'm going to let these dry out and then feeding water them.

 

[Backlipslide]

Good to have you back!! Hope everything is ok with the personal issues!!

congrats on your harvest!!
I like your idea with the needle and twine. I’ve used tie wire before but I really like the idea with needle and twine!

 

[GIjose]

Thanks bro! We are good now.
