Candy Canna Multi-Strain In Candyland

[candycane]

Hi Candy,
the pic of the AM looks great but pics can be deceiving.

Do you mean the shape and look of the leaves? Does the earlier issue look like it's stopped?

The lockout has been ceased as far as I can tell, the upper deficiency I’m still on the fence with if it’s stopped or not, she was taking soooo long to be dry enough to feed that she’s only had 2 maybe 3 feeds with the added Calimagic but it appears she may be still showing some rust on the newer growth. The oddness of some of the leaves is the shape. Here’s a few pics hopefully you can see what I’m talking about.
Rust along the edges

Some of the leaves have been kinda twisty like this and shaped oddly

this one has the odd shape and some rust along the edges

really hard to see in pic but starting to rust along the edges (new top growth)

She just doesn’t have the feel of a strong healthy plant when touching her, everything is just tiny. Just not like a normal feel like I normally have with really happy healthy plants. I really wish I could describe this better, been a rough week and can’t think super straight. I’d take her out to the natural light but spasms are too bad and lifting her will only make it worse.

You grow such beautiful plants, Candy!
I think that little Meltdown is going to get with the program real soon- she's
come a long way in just the last 5 days...

Thank you Carcass I truly appreciate that

Apart from that issue you’re current solving all the grow spaces look fantastic cc

Is that African Meltdown the famed one from Van Stank’s garden? It looks good and beautifully shaped.

keep rocking on that free spirit!!

I know plenty of free-spirited mums ... right ladies!?

Amy Yes indeed she is a Van Stank! She’s been a bit of a finicky one for me (keepin me on my toes).

Blue Monster

Afghani #1

Then there’s wee lil African Meltdown..day 63! I started spreading her out some finally to open her up some, she is growing slowly but surely and she’s got some leaves that look all kinds of crazy but she seems to be perky and drinking a lil more. Still have her on 3.5gr/g with 3mls of Calimagic, no noted yellowing. I really hope she starts to really show she is going to be well enough to flower soon so I can keep somewhat of a full rotation going. She still just seems to frail to even think about flowering her at the moment.

As always thanks for stopping by and I sure do appreciate ya!

so pretty

Happy non-mothers day Amy. Dang. You get a lot of those vs my one moms day yearly.

What kind of smells are you getting off your BM?

 

[RedZedHead]

Why do you keep the corners of your tent connected with bungee cord?

Every time I wrote those initials it felt sooo wrong

Why do you keep the corners of your tent connected with bungee cord?

It’s not for connecting it’s to help keep the tent from sucking into the girls and it does help. Not as good as the PVC that I have up but works well enough until I get more PVC put up in there.

Ahh yes I have a tent I haven't used yet because there's clothes in it and it does that exact thing.

OK, so my suggestion is to stay at 3.5g and go up on the calmag to 5mL. The plant is growing slow because of the Ca def up top. If you increase the MC then we are adding more P and K which you are trying to avoid at this stage. The calmag will keep it green and give more Ca. When is she ready for feeding?

I just fed her yesterday so it will be a few days before she will be ready to feed again. I’ll definitely bump up the Calmag for her next feed. I truly appreciate ya, I haven’t run into this issue yet of not just bumping up the MC and appreciate the helpful guidance.

I was finally able to order some seeds during the 420 sale from Seedsman and the package arrived today! Yippie!

right?! Before I had my first harvest last year I had got some from the dispensary and I was working on the basement getting water out and getting it water proofed and that strain helped get me thru it!

Anything that helps you keep head above water in this dog eat... ah, duck world - that’s a life ring worth hanging on to.

Absolutely!

You can get away with this in veg simply because the demand isn't there for all the nutrients the plant needs. You'll have to bump it up to 4 or 4.5 g when you flip to flower. The extra N in the calmag is keeping the plant green for now and the extra Ca is to try and fix the issue upstairs. Let's hope this does the trick.
