Sadly this grow has come to an end. Since all plants turned out male, I’ve decided to chop and start from scratch. Taking away a lot of wisdom from the plants that I’ll be able to apply to my next grow.

Firebolt04 Should I chop them and start from scratch?

Day: 75

A week into flowering! Need to start placing the netting. Final defoliation will be done at the end of week 3. Light cycle has changed to 12/12. A little burn happened from the transition but I’m not too worried since those will come off at the final pruning. Weather here is pretty hot and humid which the concerning part for me. I’ve been able to keep the humidity at 55% but it needs to drop another 10, any tips?

The girls have officially been flipped into flower mode! Light schedule will be adjusted to 12/12 for the next 8 weeks. I feel like I’m halfway through this process but not quite yet.

Vertical growth has improved. In a weeks time Fauna went from 4” to 6”s; Flora went from 3” to 5 1/2”s; and MaryWeather rounding up from 2 1/2” to 4”s.

The girls are doing amazingly, major thickness of the main stem has occurred. Vertical growth has been on the slower end for MaryWeather but I’m not too concerned since I’m only working with a 3x3x6 space. This week nutrient concentration will be adjusted to 100% of Big Bloom and Grow Big, also introducing Tiger Bloom. I Will be keeping them on the same light schedule of 18/6 under 1000W LED.

The plants are loving the new light. Major improvement within two days. Scent is definitely filling the room, if this is how the aroma is now, I really hope that translates to the end result. Is it too late to top at the sixth node?

Just upgraded to a 1000W light, tonight will be their first “day” on it, hopefully this helps with growth, the leaves are starting to extend beyond the rim of the pot on one. When should I transplant to 5 gallon pots? They had their first feeding at 75% nutrient concentration 2 days ago, tomorrow they will receive their second.

The gals are looking super lush in all their lavishness. Today was the final feeding of the Fox Farms Grow Big and Big Bloom at 50% concentration. For the coming week, nutrient strength will be increased to 75% . Continuing with the same 18/6 light schedule, 75F & 55% humidity.

Bird Looks great! Keep up the good work. Say a prayer a lot of growing is up to the good Lord. Looks great again man.

DankPlug I’m growing in coco so I started feeding after week 1, mine are at day 32 but a lot bigger than yours. Could be due to genetics or could be down to your plants not receiving any nutrients but either way yours is looking good and healthy and should explode with growth in 10 days time

DankPlug Sorry I meant your plants receiving minimal* nutrients

They seem to have liked the increase in nutrients; took them from 25 to 50% of recommended concentration. Started light, just to make sure I didn’t over feed and waited for the plant to tell me what it needed. The branches are growing faster, the color is much richer. Now the question is when to start stress training and when to top?

I believe they are all female. No expert here, so please let me know in the comments in case I need to isolate the male 😅

Light cycle has been a consistent 18/6, all waterings PH’d at 6.5 as well as feedings. Feedings have been increased in concentration to 50% of the FoxFarms Big Bloom and Grow Big; being administered twice a week. Lights at 135W and are positioned about 24” away from plants.

Mystrain420

Mystrain420 Seems stunted for 20+ days old. Perhaps the light isn’t strong enough, she should b a lot bigger. Check the strength and distance of your light, the color looks like she’s eating properly so it’s likely the lights

Firebolt04 @Mystrain420 they did get some light burn in their early age around day 7. They seemed to have bounced back but I thought they were a bit small for their age as well

Getting a little yellowing in the first two main leaves, ph is at 6.5. They seem to be doing better after two feedings of Fox Farms Big Bloom and Grow Big diluted to 25% concentration.

More definition in the leaves!! So yesterday I removed the propagation cup, I was advised to leave it on till day 14 but I was noticing minimal growth to the plants. When I removed it, on day seven, two seedlings wilted and tipped over. I thought those were gonna be toast, but I sprayed them, did the vitalum vitalis spell on them, reapplied the cup and they bounced back up within a day. Crossing my fingers they survive 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾

Seeds have been soaking in tap water for 24 hours, the shells have split open revealing the tap root. Moving them over to rock wool cubes to finish the germination process.
