2nd Grow: 1st Real Journal

[mk2SMOKEY]

Hello @Bill284 ,I have been looking at my work for the next couple of week's and i think i could be home everyday Just before 17:00.
I'm thinking of feeding them everyday at 17:00 because of this.
I know you're ment to feed at light's on or light's off and my current plan in the mean time is half and half kind of,Do you think every day at 17:00 is better than 1morning then tea time then morning then tea time and so on..?
Your thought's would be appreciated.
Thank you

The point is to keep them wet and well fed.
If 5pm everyday works for you then that's fine.
Just do what you can with the time you have available.
Keep them wet as best you can.
Well fed at 5.8 ph and you will be fine.
Every 24hr is better than 36hrs.
Stay safe.

Hello everyone,sorry i didn't post yesturday(long day at work).

Anyway hope you're all well and medicated.

I think our BBK is now getting stronger,not as big as her 2 sister's but i think/hope she'll be there in the end.

I am making a feed mixture of 3L Water,inside this goes 3ml CalMag wait 10minutes then 3ml each Grow A+B and 3ml B52,then PH5.8,640PPM.They recieve 1L each with around 500ml runoff each.I'm trying to work out how much to make to give them without so much runoff at the start,i see it as a bit of a waste of nutes this early stages but i'll dial it in sooner or later.

Here they are if you would like to take a look and comments are always welcome.
Thank you.



P.S. On another note,i have been smoking the Forgotten Cookies of my first try and i think i can taste and smell the difference in the hang dry compared to the fridge dry.
I couldn't realy tell the difference in taste or smell with the washed and unwashed but the washed did look better.
Hang dry-the smell is more potent when opening grove bag,tastes nice but not as flavoursome as the fridge dry,

Fridge dry-the smell is a little weaker when opening the bag but becomes more pronounced when the nug'z are being tampered with,taste is much better than the hang dry.

Outcome is that the fridge dry seems tastier and the hang dry seems smellier in bag.This is just my oppinion of my/our first attempt.

Hello everybody,just a update on our progress,

All is ok other than slight light marking on the BBK.

Feed is at between 16:30-1700(lights on at 06:00- off at 23:00).
The last 2 day's i have been mixing 2.5L of water with 3ml CalMag,+3ml each Grow A+B,+3ml Voodoo Juice, PH5.8, 640PPM, 21.2c.
They recieve around 800ml each and around 1L runoff in total.

Temps in tent are around 23.c lights on and 18.8c at lights off,Humidity is around 54%-64% lights on and 60%-70% at lights off.The room which the tent is in is sitting at 56%-60%humidity and 18.8c-19.7c.I haven't turned dehumy on yet,i'm waiting until the start of flower.

I have raised the light 2inch and is at 60%intense,i have also turned the 2 oiso fan's up a little bit and the exhaust fan up too.

Thanks again for listening to me bable on haa,here they are-

 

[mk2SMOKEY]

hello,just a quick update.

All is good in there hood.
Turned dehumidy on yesturday and so far the humidity is 50%-60%,more the high end at feed then comes down after a hour or so.I turn humidy up at night to keep it no more than 60%,i will turn up more when flower starts to keep at 45%-55% to hopefuly prevent mold.
Temps are 24c constant during the day and 20c at night/light's off.

Feed has been upped aswell,it's now at:
3L water,4.5ml CalMag,4ml each GrowA +B,3ml B52.PH5.8-680PPM-19.9c.
They have 1L each with around 1.6L runoff(not tested PH/PPM,they look ok so no need to check).

Here they are if you would like to take a peep,Thank you

Hey wot's up Cjsbabygirl,i too also made my first to harvest with the help of some very friendly and helpful people on here.

Time now to get some more bulk without the mold this time around,i only had 2 in there last time and got caught with it.Helpful people on here saved me realy.
Always a little to scared to ask a question but sometimes i just have to get the help.

Thank you for stopping by and commenting,

Hello everyone,Hope you're all having a good weekend so far.

Day21-24 and all is good so far.
GWK:20cm height,looks scraggly.
CDCxS:17cm height,the best imo.
BBK:15.5cm height,doing ok after her belly flop on the floor,i have high hopes she'll overtake her 2 sisters.

Feed today was,into 3L water goes:4ml CalMag,4ml each GrowA+B,3ml B52.
PH5.8 ,658ppm,19.9c .
They have there usual Liter with around 500ml runoff each(didn't test or measure sorry).

Light is sitting at 60% intense and is 13,9in away from the highest plant top.
I will up the intense +5 tomorrow but will leave the height,so far they aren't showing any signs of problems.

Thank you for taking a butchers,feel free to ask any ?'s or if i'm doing anything wrong.Thanks again and here they are

 

[Morda Grown]

Hello 013,Thank you so much.
I'm trying to do as much detail as i possibly can with my light and feed but i just go blank when i start writing on here haha.
Thanks again

 

[Morda Grown]

I'm not 013 but I will take that as a compliment! Don't worry, I have made a few mistakes in my first journal too. The whole point is to learn and do better each time.

Hey Amigo hope you are having a good day.
The first two plants (gwk) there is something going on with the leaves.
They are a little twisted and not holding up properly.
Have they been treated any different?
Same stuff in their pots?
Stay safe.
Bill

Hello Morda Grown,so sorry about that-my bad.I'm deffinitely learning a lot more now it's in my hands so to speak than reading up on it.
Just want to share the good/bad/ugly to help anyone and everyone haa.
Thank you

Hello Bill.
I'm doing fine thank you,hope you're doing ok.
The only thing i've changed is add a little more nutes.
I mix 3L then split this between the 3 of them.I was adding extra water to the BBK at the start because she was a few day's behind when planting and when she jumped(wink)out my hand onto the floor when taking her out of solo cup,i don't dilute her now as she has the same.
For the GWK-i was under the impression she was just going a little slower than the others,when i open up the tent in the morning to check before work she'll be perking up towards the light,i'll try and remember to get a picture for you in the morning.
This happend on my first go so didn't see any red flags.I'll keep an eye on her but is there anything i should be worried about.
sorry for the long winded reply.
Thank you,

 

[Morda Grown]

I know very little about growing in Coco Coir, So it is a learning experience for me to watch your grow. I give you kudo's for jumping right in!

 

[mk2SMOKEY]

I realy wanted to do some sort of automated watering system but i'm very nervous about leaving plug sockets on when i'm not at home so decided to go with coco and auto's.
There a few thing i wish i could try but unfortunately it's just not possible were i am,it's a joke but that's a debate for another day haha.
Thank you Morda .fyi i did scroll up to check the name haha

I'm good thanks.
When you compare her to to the last pic CDCXS I think you can really see the difference.
Still young she should grow out.
Just keep feeding 5.8 with cal mag in first she will be a star.
Are you going to do any training?
Bill

Glad to hear you're ok,
5.8 every time with CalMag added first as i was helpfuly told on here.
I was thinking about topping or low stress training but i was scared incase they all bush out on me and ram there home out.I have height to play with just not width or depth,this is why i am going to let them go upwards instead of small and squat,(hope you understand what i'm tryin to say,sounds right to me but might be mumbo jumbo to you).
