So here how it went:
I've researched Marijuana Horticulture like crazy.
And by the time I've received all the equipment, I had a general understanding about all aspects about growing Marijuana.
Soil:
Although I've researched it like crazy. Choosing soil was really hard and confusing for me;
many options and opinions on each site I've visited, so in the end, I've ended up with Miracle Grow with the slow release crap (Notice the burned tips - Nitro Toxicity), and Coast of Maine Premium Potting Soil.
Water:
Distilled. Ph: 6.1 - 6.3 ALWAYS!
Nutrients:
- Floratonic Holland series mixed with B.C Grow (Holland Grow didn't came with all with the package I've received)
- Gradually raised. First feed 1/4 the recommended amount.
- At flowering, Never above 800 PPM.
- Used Magical for micro - every second feed. Should have added crashed Epson Salts with watering since I've read she can't get enough Mag.
- Added Carbo Bud after the second week af 12/12 switch.
Lights:
- For Veg - x2 T5 lights 24w each
- Flowering - EYE Hortilux 400w (couldn't handle the heat 33c)
On 2.12.16 - Week 4 day 2 since germination - both were topped. It kept growing like crazy afterwards, and I'm a noob not realizing that Blue Dream stretches like crazy. So 31.12, after it grew like crazy, I've seen that it will just reach the ceiling...
So I did Bending. These pictures are from
26.1.17. Yeah. I know. I've stretched the Veg way, way too much. But Without even Realizing.
Not the Prettiest sight... I know.
3 weeks and 5 days later - Week 2, Day 4 since 12/12 switch
Now this is interesting one. Notice How long the stems are. Aside from the fact the I SHOULD have Bind them too, but I don't know why I didn't.
With her, I did SuperCropping In order to bend her. And the whole plant was stressed. But all the other Nodes below the cropped spot grew tall like that. She devoted all the resources to these nodes.
Thank you very much for reading. I'm a noob and will appreciate any king of feedback.
I might elaborate more later if you want.
