Power went out for 17 hours!! Holy shit was I nervous. 80% RH for almost the whole time. I got a generator as soon as I could but everything was closed. Checked for mold no signs of issues but time will tell. Large girl is still a week ahead development wise. Might be looking at cutting it soon. I’ll do a 3-5 day flush since my ec/ppm is so low

Day: 52

Same feed Intake ec 880 Run off ec 680-740 Feed twice today 20% run off. Hot exterior temps so tent was getting to 79f-82f. Nothing I can do don’t want to get an ac unit and we live on a lake so we don’t run the ac much so hopefully this will be fine. Plenty of airflow Exhaust fan on 24/7 on high Setting. Taller plant will need harvesting prior to the smaller they are maybe 5-7 days apart. Taller plant is just truckin along

Watering 2 times a day now to help correct a slight cal-mag def. no progression so I think all is good. Feed is 3ml CaliMagic, 1ml Micro, 1ml Gro, 3ml Bloom. Ec about 870. Plants are starting to get there sugar leaves to really fill in the bud sights. Still pretty small but progress is still going.

Day: 47

Feeding ec780 same ratios as yesterday. Noticing some wind burn on lower leaves nothing to bad. Will keep my feed the same for another week. Might up bloom but time will tell. You can tell which plant receives more LST than the other.

KC40 Looking great. Perhaps a photoperiod strain next run so you can incorporate some training like topping, etc.?

Today I hacked my Spider Farmer SF-2000 to reduce tent temps. Spliced and extended the driver to be positioned outside of my tent. 3 degrees Fahrenheit difference so far and that’s huge for my 3x3. Next grow I’m going back to my 2x4 using 3 2gal plastic pots with 70% coco and 30% perlite using Mega Crop and Bud Explosion from GreenLeaf nutrients. Still much to learn but things are going okay so far. Layer off the nutes the plants are thriving off ec of 700-850 and don’t want more. Slowly increasing bloom to 3ml per gal. Micro and grow are still at 1ml per gal. Feeding every morning at 9am for the 2 3gal. Feeding small plants twice a day to avoid dry up.

Day: 40

Plants got fed this morning ec760. Reduced Micro to fix nitrogen toxicity. Defoliated all leaves covering bud spots. Went kinda hard with it but it should be fine since these genetics are growing strong. Feeding once a day now

4 years ago

Day: 39

+2

Correcting a nitrogen toxicity problem I’m noticing. I briefly switched to cal-mag 2-0-0 instead of CaliMagic 1-0-0 and not reducing Micro I over feed on Nitrogen. EC run off is the same as intake. This morning I flushed plants with ph’d r/o water then feed correct feed mixture to accommodate bloom. Bud sites popped up everywhere

Day: 36

Plants doing good growth wise. Only plants left in tent are 2 3gal plants and 2 small clay pots. Broke the double plant, snapped main stem in LST. It was difficult keeping them separated due to being planted to close, giving it to a friend to grow out the rest of its life. EC950 feeding every 24-34 hours.

Day: 33

New tent 3’x3’ 6’ tall. Keeping the 3 biggest plants in the tent. Still having cal-mag issues but it’s more so on old fan leaves. Going to flush the plants tomorrow then re feed them. Watered yesterday ec900 No feed today.

Today medium is noticing drying up more, will need to up watering amount. Will possibly water tonight or early morning. LST training started today with pipe cleaners. I don’t plan on using a net to separate limbs. Running out of space so I left the strongest 3 and the remaining plants will live out a happy life outside during the day and inside at night.

Day: 29

Cal/mag deficiency problems encountered but things are going pretty good. Feedings are EC 850 kept 3 best plants due to space

Day: 18

Today I watered with tensing nutrient solution at ec780. After dark cycle I noticed tent was 90% humidity. Tent for really saturated and plant leaves dropped down and touched coco. This might cause nutrient burn. I have multiple spots on the leaves where it looks like I splashed nutrient feed water on leave tops causing them to discolor. I’ll keep an eye on it. Tomorrow if like to avoid watering but we will see. Determined to correct these early issues

No watering today. Soil still damp Some issues noticed. Fan leaves are so wide they are touching the grow tent when the in-line fan is exhausting. Also some light colored patches are being noticed. Will keep an eye on things. Will water tomorrow and attempt to water every other day with larger feedings Primary leaves are starting to brown up

Day: 16

Found some nutrient burn. Diluting today’s feeding from ec1000 to ec 750-800 to avoid damage. I’ll water 3-4 cups each plant to help flush.

Happy 420! Today feeding EC1000 Still getting wave affect on side of leaves. Asked in the forums what this could be caused by

Day: 14

Today morning feeding of ec 1010. Plants look like they can handle it. Still have wavy leaves but it’s not slowing growth so I’ll see what happens. Plants are growing strong I’m rotating and moving my plants around in the grow tent to get different angles of light. I’ll do this until they are to big to do so.

Day: 13

ec840 feeding today in the morning. Plants growing strong despite some “waving leaves” these seed genetics can really take higher ec during the seeding stage I will up nutrients next cycle

Day: 12

Today ec feeding of 800. Added pot elevators 8” diameter and 2” lift. This is a game changer for my run off :) plants really like nutrients early. Next grow I will up nutes during seedling stage

Day: 8

Today I did a morning watering ec650. Bottom of canvas pots are retaining a lot of moisture. Might try one larger feeding once a day instead of 2 small to really help move the run off to avoid nutrient burn as I raise my ec. So I skipped today’s second feeding. Still trying to correct heat stress or wind stress on seedlings. Pointed fans in oscillating setting and aimed both up at fan to help push air away. Tent temps are staying between 70-75 now instead of previous 75-81. Small pots are going to friends and family for their kitchen counter tops but the 2 seeds in one container will stay in as an experiment to learn :)

Day: 7

Today morning feed was GH trio and CaliMagic diluted to get ec650. Will feed twice today. Second feeding GH trio and CaliMagic ec530. Plants showing signs of heat stress. Lowered a fan to point up at the spider farmers light. It’s giving off much more heat than advertised. My grow tent reaches 80f pretty easily. Set 2 fans on light and dropped inline fan temps to keep grow tent between 70-75 instead of 75-80. LED us as high as it goes

Feeding of EC 600 cal mag and r/o water only. Tomorrow will be trio nutes and calmag dilutes with r/o until ec650

4 years ago

Day: 5

Today is the first dark cycle the ladies will encounter. Doing 20/4 instead of initially planned 18/6. GH trio nutrients added today with CaliMagic. Did dosage according to the “schedule” I’m following. Will water twice daily to achieve 10%-20% run off. My 3 gallon pots I can pour in 2cups of feed water and I get 20%-30% runoff. Will try 1.5 cup in the morning then at night. Plants dark period is 2pm-6pm this allows me to feed when the plants wake up 6-7pm and the second feed will be between 6-8am. EC of feed is 450ish. After nutrients added I had to water down the solution to achieve my EC range. Will slowly continue to raise EC Second feeding for today I added more CaliMagic to being EC up to 650. Trying to see if I can darken the leaves a bit to cancel out a cal mag deficiency. Tomorrow both waters I will do an ec of 500 and only use CaliMagic to reach that EC.

filoboni Nice! I’m doing GSC too! Check out my grows if I want!

Ty05sti Thanks! Yeah I love this strain and it’s my first time growing. Really really new to growing cannabis so this is all a learning experience and I welcome all difficulties and problems that I’ll face with this grow. I’m following you as well so hopefully you keep the updates going and I can learn from that as well :)

Day: 4

Today was the first day for GH trio nutrients and CaliMagic. EC range 450. Had to water down solution to achieve lower EC. CaliMagic really spiked my ec prior to nutrients being added. Tomorrow I will introduce dark cycle. Watered 2-1/2 cups water for the 3gal pots. Got 35%-50% run off. I will reduce watering and do it twice a day starting tomorrow. The smaller pots take 1/2 cup to get 20% run off.

Day: 3

Issue encountered already, I placed germinated seeds to close to the surface so the seed coat is still attached to the sprout. To correct this I raised humidity from 55% to 70%. Placed clear cups sprayed with r/o water over sprouts to build up moisture so coat can fall off. They are pretty attached so I can’t physically pull them off yet. I am concerned about 3 of them at this moment. This problem should be fixed with the high humidity. Today as an experiment since I have 20 seeds I bought new pots for the smaller 4 seeds and transplanted them day 3. I’m going to see how stunned the growth will be because of this if any.

tnkrumpets Love the exhale bags, nice setup! Is your medium coco mix? I’ve only ever used FFOF/perlite but I want to move to coco eventually.

Ty05sti I’m running Mother Earth pre mix coco coir perlite mix 70%-30%. I rinsed it out a bit prior to use but the buffer is still present in the coco. My run off is still between 6.5-6.8. Hopefully this will correct shortly with my water feedings of 5.8. Initial EC of the soil run off was the same as what I put in so happy to see no salt build ups.Co2 bag takes 30 days to be fully affective so at the moment it’s at its peak so I’m excited to see if it will benefit me.

Day: 2

Today 7 out of 8 seeds broke ground. Continuing with 3-4 cups of water per 3gal fabric pot. R/O water ph to 5.8 and 5ml cal mag. Ppm 262

4 years ago

Day: 1

All 8 germinated seeds popped. Spring water for 20 hours then paper towel method for 24 hours. Pre rinsed coco coir with 4-1/2 gallon water each ph balanced. Getting higher ph run off probably due to buffers in coco from manufacturer. Ec is good so I’ll still use this coco and slowly correct it if possible. Small pots are straight from the bag as a control
