Bag Seed 12/12 From The Start

[FelipeBlu]

What’s the temp getting down to in the grow space? Except for the purple stems, she looks fine. I wouldn’t worry.

Believe it or not I still haven’t got my hygrometer/thermometer that I ordered before Christmas . The delivery date is between January 24-March 8!!! But the house thermostat is set at 72. My intake gets a little cool because it’s aluminum venting. But if I had to guess I’d say around 65-70 at the lowest.

 

[FelipeBlu]

That nighttime temp sounds great!


Hope you get your hygrometer soon.

It went a bit dry the last few days as my father passed away and we laid him to rest Friday. I watered today and added just a little bit more tiger bloom than usual. I water with a 1 liter bottle full and add usually a quarter teaspoon per liter. This watering I added the quarter teaspoon and just a few drops extra along with a quarter teaspoon of molasses.

Much appreciated. He really liked this plant as it progressed, so I’m going to grow it to it’s full potential in his honor. He was a combat veteran who served in Vietnam and he really enjoyed his medicine.

My condolences
A joint by his grave would be a sweet thing yo do

There was a joint in his pocket. He wanted to be cremated so why not send him off with a joint and a couple cigarettes.

She’s really drinking heavy now. The one gallon pot doesn’t help lol. Watering every other day to three days now. Stem is nearly completely purple halfway down with streaks in the base. Wish I had better lighting but I’m doing fairly well with what I got.

 

[ChiDude]

I noticed towards the top a little is lighter green than the rest of the plant. Is that the potassium deficiency you mentioned or maybe the lighting? Any info would be appreciated.

I doubt it’s light stress from CFLs. I’m seeing cupping, which could indicate heat stress. How’s the temp/humidity? Did you get some CalMag?

 

[ChiDude]

Temp and humidity are fine. I haven’t got any calmag but I’ll try to get some. It’s -52 today lol. For the meantime I and steeping some banana tea to water with and might skip the Nutes this watering.

 

[ChiDude]

The heat was on a little higher than usual due to the low outside temps. Is it possible just a single dry warmer than usual night did this?

 

[FelipeBlu]

The cupping? Yes.

I don’t know about the banana tea, but you’ll want to add some CalMag soon.

 

[ChiDude]

I’ll find some

 

[FelipeBlu]

What’s your current dose of Tiger Bloom?

 

[ChiDude]

1/4 tsp per one liter of water in addition to 1/4 tsp of molasses.

 

[ChiDude]

I added just a few extra drops of TB into the water yesterday.

I read in several articles that epsom salt can be used as Cal-Mag in a pinch. I really don’t want any salts in my soil. I also read molasses will do the same. Should I increase molasses maybe?

 

[FelipeBlu]

1/4 tsp per one liter of water in addition to 1/4 tsp of molasses.

This is about 1 teaspoon (5ml)/gallon, which only provides:
25ppm N
44ppm P
42ppm K
25Ca
6Mg

You could easily double this dose.

All bottled/powdered nutrients are salts/combinations of salts. It’s just how they come.

I don’t know much about molasses. Some use it as a carb boost, but the plant makes its own sugars, and I grow in hempy, so I have no use for it.

Sounds good. I’ll double up on the dose. I was just worried about overdoing it. Should help big time.
