Hey Y'all.
I recently bought 10 seeds and, although I have several done several white widow DWC grows without problems, The cannatonic is giving me fits.
Of the 3 beans that popped they all soon developed leaves that were curled down at the tips. The most common reason cited for this effect is too much nitrogen. Since bloom fertilizer has low nitrogen and compared to the grow fertilizer (GH MaxiGro and MaxiBloom) I thought the problem would stop. No such luck! The leaves curled back in upon themselves and the problem grew worse. Leaves started turning quite yellow. The yield from the 3 plants was 9 oz. cured. Not too bad but I was struck by the lack of "crystals" around the buds. It also wasn't sticky to trim. I didn't get any finger hash and very little scissor hash. Very little effect on smoking but this is a 50/50 THC, CBD strain in the 7 or 8% for each canibinoid. On the other hand the main colas were larger than any I have grown thus far. It has since gone into oil.
The first 3 plants were grown in hydroponics and clones of each were then grown in Subcool's super organic soil mix. Fox farm Light Warrior and Ocean forest were used as the base soil. 5 gallon nursery pots were used which is actually too small I've discovered. This grow has one plant that is dying. I'm not surprised since in hydro that plant had a immature root ball. Resin Seeds, the breeder, has mentioned that they have had a grower report voids in the root mass. These plants are about 30" tall. I used LST bending and opening the center of the plants while growing. Most colas are the same distance from the lights. The yield is looking like it may not be bad for small plants but bright yellow leaves abound. These plants are full of trichomes all over sugar leaves and buds. WTF why wasn't the first grow full of resin?
If anyone else has grown cannatonic could they let me know please? Excuse the rather lengthy post. I don't post much but I'm always haunting the forums.
