NoobyMacDooby's Grow: Less Nooby More Dooby!

[JustinHemp420]

Hey Hey, good to see you're still going guns blazing. From my side I've never had issues with hermies except on a GG but that I assess was stress because I had another one in the tent that didn't Hermie. Other than that I found one seed in my Strawberry Amnesia.
On the point of calmag without the nitrogen, you mentioned earlier of 2 products locally...do you mind sharing or was those the products that in the end also had N in it?

Hey bru long time no see! Yeah it was growguru's calmag additive that was the same as the other calmag with N. I just bought some of the greenhouse calmag additive and pared it with epsom salts. Used it in my dwc for the 1st time and not sure if coincidence but the plant is praying to the lights even more now .
Not sure if I'l use it in my organics setup though as the idea is to be off the shelf product free.

Sounds like a plan, I need to try Dynagro calcium supplement.

 

[NoobyMacDooby]

You guys have the greenhouse powder feed available in your area Penny? Seems pretty good so far, just very pricey to run the whole line. The booster is suppose to be very good too, also the priciest part.

Seeing as I'm using R.O water I can add the calcium and eps to get the EC at 0.3 / 0.4 before adding nutes. Much better than just using some eps and the calmag nitrate. Got a lot of fox tailing from it on the last grow so looking forward to see what this does

Anything you can do to simplify your nutrients should be a priority.

GSC are well known for showing inter sex traits and it can carry over to cookie crosses. It looks like they throw a few nanners down low and close to the main stalk. Pull those off and they usually won't produce anymore nanners.

Yup was keeping an eye on that and found one little sucker today. It came out with a pistil but was growing all wonky and its a combo of male / female bits. Yanked it off, dont say anything similar on the rest of the plant so should be good.

 

[Pennywise]

Just look it over on a regular basis but you may be good.

Yeah I check it every day....a couple of times...

Usually early in flower or right before chop time is when they seem to pop up.

 

[NoobyMacDooby]

Any thoughts on why these leaves are folding like this? light stress?

Some of the leaves are praying like crazy but others are like this, almost as if they've inverted themselves

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

It could be heat or too close to light. Maybe some air flow will help.

 

[NoobyMacDooby]

Yeah I think my lights are too close, damn thing stretched like crazy

 

[Dusty Kiefers]

Shes got great color and nice bottons forming.

 

[NoobyMacDooby]

Yeah everything else is firing on all cylinders it's only on day 20 since flip and the bud sights are almost 2cm wide now. I can say that hydro really wins in the growth department for right now.

 

[Smeegol]

looking good mr.N....

Grow update:

Had a thrip infestation in my veg room that nearly decimated my seedling overnight as I didn't spray them as heavily...lesson learnt. Not sure if any of the shiva dreams or cuvee crosses will make it....and if they do the stress could cause hermies.

On the flowering side though its going just peachy day 25 since flip:

Lovely color on that plant brother. Dern it bout the trips. I have those fuckers on my mellons and pumpkins.

 

[NoobyMacDooby]

Thanks man and yeah those thrips are a pain but manageable. Don't think I'l ever eradicate them, gotta walk through a lush garden to get to my grow and they can hitch a ride at any time. But noobie lesson learnt, don't be slack on your IPM and dont under spray a set of plants.

Very happy to report that some nice frosting has dropped in the past few days going on 4 weeks now:
