hi 420...
well this wasn't abandoned so much as it all went a bit sideways over the holidays. got busy with the new space, holidays are when we make the most sales at work, and both myself and the plants got sick for a few wks right when i was going to throw them in flower.
the white cookies started tossing themselves into one side of cal-mag deficiency and then the other. i was getting anxious trying to get ahead of them.
this was popping out all over the plant...
i'd flush, change the ph a bit and re-feed a few days later. the plants would start to look better then lurch immediately into another side of the deficiency.
i pulled a bunch of the leaves off in various stages of the problem to get a look and maybe some advice.
i kept getting the same answers i was chasing and clearly wasn't hitting the the mark.
things started getting a bit dramatic...
i wasn't getting closer with local advice and i didn't have much info to post on.
they kept right on growing even through all the trouble. this is about when i first wanted to toss them in flower...
finally i decided to take a shot that phosphorous was underlying the other hassles. i had heard it can trigger what looks like other deficiencies, but had never seen it first hand. so i flushed again and essentially threw a flower nute schedule at them, going heavier on the phosphorous than i had planned on.
within 3 - 4 days they responded. i didn't wait and put all of them into flower for good, so if the problem wasn't caught it was going to be big trouble. looks like i got horseshoes but they all overgrew.
so here i am now lol..
oh boy it's a jungle ...
here's one of the white cookies that caused all the apple cart turn over. this is about the tag end of wk 1 or beginning of wk 2 after the flip.
quick peek at the cbdream
my canopy is actually pretty even but stuff is so overgrown that penetration is not that great. musing about a lollipop or even just a major defol. a bit unsure as i usually just leave stuff alone by this point. i've only ever done minimal lst and not much else, with one or two minor defols at the end of veg when i take clones. i'm not looking at this to produce so much as a result.
the black indica looks great and i managed a couple clones to keep this one going.
everyone loves the black indica and it's one i'm definitely growing moving forward. my clones haven't done so great as i been dialing in the new room on them and trying a couple different approaches. a couple should survive tho, and i plan on buying some seed. the strain is still available everywhere it seems.
here's a look at the under canopy.
wondering if i should lose the bottom third or just let it go.
that's where we are at. i should probably post up more on the new area and clones. i'm gearing stuff up today for the new space, getting a second set of nutes etc. it's been stupid difficult trying to run both rooms in opposite ends of the city with only one space having all the stuff.
edit: i should mention for those interested i ran AN voodoo juice for the first 2 wks after flip and am running molasses right now on the water side of the schedule. the voodoo helps with deficiencies a bit as well.
i'll check my notes and post up the feed and water schedules if anyone is interested. i'm still under 50% of the AN schedule and at about 500 ish ppm on the feed. i ran the voodoo and do the molasses on the water side.
take care 420.
