Thanks for putting the future "mamacitas" in the pics. Nice harvest! I find it hard to believe that can be less than a pound and a half; and if your adjustments and hood have already displayed a couple inches give or take for vertical girth addition...your thread title's goal seems to be a tad conservative, lol. Congrats!
Hey 420I'd be careful following that schedule. I was growing 22-24" plants when I was feeding with that schedule. Now, with smaller plants, and Corey's new nute mixture, I find they won't take near as much before burning.
In fact, I'm finding that my mature plants are now maxing out in the 15bloom-10micro-5grow + 2.5 Liquid Blue range.
Plus, every strain reacts a bit differently. Watch your plants. They'll speak to you every day.
Good Growing
Thank you. I love your enthusiasm but you're over estimating the harvest by a long shot. I'm guessing I'll average 3+ grams per plant which will yield 10-11 ounces. This group is weak but with reason. This table was not dipped in clonex and in fact, held a lot of "holdover" clones which were rough from the beginning and did not have strong root systems. This table represents the low end of expectation.
Obviously, the new hood and dipping the clones in clonex gel is making a big difference. I also think that Critical Mass will show me a bump in yield vs. Snow White. This journal isn't a sprint, it's a marathon...as I plan on running it at least until the end of the year. Over the course of the next few months I plan to do all I can to push my GPW# with only 2 flowering bulbs.
Stick around.
increase the grow and bloom. It looks like they need some magnesium. Also, you might be watering too much. the leaves look like they are kind of droopy indicating that they are water logged. If you let them dry out a bit more, the roots will grow faster and then they will start drinking more water and will be able to take up more nutrients. You might consider letting them dry out until really well between the next feedings/waterings and then use equal parts of each Grow/Micro/Bloom to make sure that they are getting everything that they need.
John, you might want to also take a closer look at the pH. That is the cause of many issues that I see
hey
Checked ph tonight with nutes and everything added, ph is coming to 5.8. Was gonna feed tonight but as per your advice gonna wait one more day let em dry out. Didn't seem like too much in res tonight and leaves were still a little droopy, and not really stretching towards the light...I am increasing nutes tomorrow to 10ml of micro grow n bloom per gallon. First 3 weeks of flower they are supposed to stretch aren't they? Mine right now are about 7-8 inches and I have my light about 16" above the plants. When 420 had his lights stationary his plants were about 18-20"...are mine gonna grow 10" in one week?
PS They are still light green or maybe its the HPS light fooling me? hopefully they green up and stretch after the next feeding
420 I'm about to put my clones in the 2 liters and I'm using the three part Blue Planet. I don't have a ppm meter do I just start with the transition feeding or is that to hot?
any plans to add Co2 to the grow to increase yield?
Get yourself a PPM meter as soon as you can.
I start with 5/5/5 and increase it from there. You can start with 2.5/2.5/2.5 too.
2.5/2.5/2.5 gets my vote its better to start low and work into higher ppms or nute strength. I start with 2.f for a week then 5.0 a week then start uping the flower part in week 3 but my tap is 380 ppm and I burn at really low ppms. I just recently tryed adding epsom to maybe balance out the impurities in my tap and stop the premature burn signs have you ever tryed epsom Fied? Or do you think this will help?
2.5/2.5/2.5 is a good starter dose. Every strain will have it's own level of tolerance(nute strength) and it's up to the gardener to find the sweet spot. Go with what works for you.
I have never tried Epsom to deal with nute burn. I foliar fed Epsom when I dealt with a lockout a few years ago but that's it. If your plants are showing premature burn signs it stands to reason that you'd want to flush them and then dial down the nutes a bit. Are you doing this in conjunction with adding the Epsom or just hoping the addition of Epsom will balance it out for you?
