Hello all, nice to be here!
I have just started to learn my new hobby!
I bought a ton of equipment and i have spend a lot of more money on it then it was planned (never ending story?) ..
- Grow tent (Secret Jardin) 4x4 / 120x120 + 2 scrog nets
- Led (Telos 006): 4 x 180w
- Air pot: 0.2/1/5.5 gallon, 1/5/25 liter
- Organic fertilizer (biobizz)
Config:
- 16h Light
- 25 / 22 Celsius
- 60% RH
The plan is to make a scrog and fill upp the whole tent for a nice yield.
I want to make a nice organic weed for self use & medication.
Strains:
- Sour Diesel
- Lemon Shining Silver Haze
- Bubble Kush
- Special Queen 1
I put the seeds in the soil 7 weeks ago.
My plants have had a rough life and we hope this is changing now..
I made a soil mix with: 62% good soil, 12% perlit, 12% worm casting, 12% cocos
and i also added lime.
I shouldn't have added the lime, it says in the bag that its only for plants that like high ph..
So the ph have been to high directly from start.
I also got problems with sciaridae flies (i serious hate them) .. I just started the war on flies
And on top of this i also have been topping, two times (two base nodes),
each plant have 8 tops now. I also do lst to try to make them grow vertically
A week ago i decided to wash the soil in water to remove as much soil as possible,
and then re-potted them in the same pot (0,2 gallon / 1 liter).
This time i only used regular soil and 15/20% perlit.
They didn't die, they actually grow a bit the first 24 hours. My ladies are strong!
It take almost 4 days for the pot to dry, and i can fill each pot with 0,1 gallon / 0,5 liter with some runoff.
I have been reading that when the pot dry up every day its time to get a larger pot,
but i think maybe this is wrong?
I should probably re-potted them long time ago, but i think its strange they don't dry faster.
They are small but strong, and i hope it still can be good in the end,
the veg period will be longer then normal.
