Thank you GDB. I hope I am going to get a good lean this time!Me too!![]()
Thank you Bode!Me Three!
Highya Carmen,
Nice buds all around, but Mac1 has a great start on some big buds!! Great job, Carmen! Happy Smokin'
It's the first time I am growing an un-topped plant. It's going to be interesting to me to watch that develop.Wow that kitchen table is going to be full up pretty soon! The MAC is going to have a stellar cola up top.
Hehehe. I have another light and could easily get another two plants on there. I can legally have up to 4 flowering plants at any one given time, but I could get a couple of veggers startedI say you should get one more light and 2 more plants lol who uses a kitchen table as a kitchen table anyways, mine just holds my mail and cats.
Thank you so much G!Keep up the great work your plants look awesome!
Happy Hump Day! Here is a quick vid of my plants. I love 'em! The Blueberry is a bit of a sulky wimp despite her robust condition. She has to get watered and I'm not waiting for the wilt. I've dialed it back to 1 L every two days again, but the bottom of the pot is damp today, so it's slower than that atm. I can only put that down to the fucking cold weather. I'm not
Nice looking plants Carmen !unhappy though. These are three great little autos. Check em out x
Thank you Sniper X. Lol your accent would sound exotic to meNice looking plants Carmen !
Love your accent, my Boston accent isnt quite as elegant as yours !! Lol
Im going to study your DLI a bit more , its interesting stuff, your system is working very good for you
Holy smokes Carmen. You have them looking fantastic!
It's a funny plant. I love it though and feel it will produce very well.The one in the Blueberry does look like it's being stubborn but it may still find it's rhythm, it's not a bad plant at all, but the other 2 sure just make it look like a slackard. That may just be how it grows, the proof is in the pudding at harvest.
Thank you so much Gee man!That mimosa has those super cool indica style budlets that grow down just above the larf line and stand up like a golfball on a tee with just one round nugMan I love those. They are so photogenic.
She's got great turgidity and looks like she's winding up for top speed.
And then there's Mac1, the untopped beauty. She has perfect shape and perfect turgidity.
I think that plant has both Plant and Photo ofthe month in her if you stage her properly. Possibly Nug of the month too. She's a good one.
My hats off to you Carmen you set your mind to it last season to up your game and put effort in everywhere. Soil, Light, pruning, training, watering, the list goes on and you nailed it. This is going to be a great finish.
The MAC #1 goes for 10 to 12 weeks, which puts it at end Aug. Seedsman say Blueberry auto will go 65 to 70 days, which puts it at mid Aug. Sweet Seeds say that the Red Mimosa XL auto will run for 8 weeks from germination, but that can't be right because we are at 7 weeks already!According to the breeder info how many days do they have left?
Thank you KeithBeautiful plants Carmen.![]()

Thank you Master Otter!What Gee said! So much you've learned in one season! They look great Carmen!
Ok thats even better than what they had on their website. Thats enough to at least make it look a bit better if it's a K issue, so I would get some myco in with a drench, watch the next 72 hours for the plant to improve.
If it does improve then it's a K thing, but the myco drench won't hurt.
If the foliar doesn't help then you wait it out for 6-8 days until myco starts to kick in.
In between I would give it a fish drink and another light calmag. I think I would give it the calmag 1st. Then next watering use the fish. Only when it needs water tho.
So myco drench as per the instructions in the overall amount of a regular watering, don't flush it or fully saturate it. You want the myco to stay in the pot, then next watering after that CalMag, then next watering fish, and by then you should be seeing some kind of results.
Don't do a strong CalMag tho, mix as per the instructions for light feeding.
Watch the rust spots and the K stripes in the leaves. Then in a week we watch for myco to establish.
If the foliar turns it around then water with seaweed or kelp next, then calmag again, then seaweed or kelp again, then start cycling calmag, fish,water, and seaweed.
Good morning Keith, you were up early todayGood morning, Carmen.![]()
Gee really has you covered this grow! And that's a lovely table for three.
No apology necessary, but Very much appreciated!@MedScientist I owe you an apology. I wasn't particularly receptive to hearing that the Blueberry has issues with water because there is no way this plant is being overwatered.
Yes definitely.Good Morning Carmen, Well Good Afternoon for you I guess. Blueberry looks better today. Her leaves are up so thats a good sign.
If it's in all 3 then it's likely something lacking in the soil mix.
No, I gave one top dressing when they started flowering.How regular are your top dressings? Are they scheduled weekly?
It's light and fluffy. I run my fingers through it regularly.When the pots dry down, so right before watering, is the soil up top fluffy and loose, or is it crusty and you need to break it up?
Sure I can do that.Can you show some pictures of both some lower fans and the top fully opened fans from each plant, and if they have signs of deficiency then maybe some close ups of the deficiency. Just fully formed fans please.
I'm certain the foliar helped, that and I gave the dose of calmag and K, so the cocktail has worked nicely.They all look like they are moving water well today. Do you think the foliar helped, or is it too soon to tell yet?
I had a potassium deficiency in one of my last plants which is how I recognized this straight away.I just did a fair bit of reading on Potassium as it's a deficiency I don't usually encounter.
This! This is the kind of gold that makes all the difference. Thanks for doing the reading Gee man.Both kelp and greensand are an easy way to avoid it and I always use plenty of both.
From what I read, low K will amongst other things, greatly effect water transport thru the plant as it's a major player in stomata regulation, and when K gets low, Calcium will step in to replace it, as they are both a strong positively charged cation, which causes the plants internal cellular calcium pools to drop, leading to signs of calcium deficiency, even if calcium isn't actually deficient in the soil.
It does yes. Every 14 days it says. Would that mean that I should wait another two weeks before dosing the plant again, or do you think it is different with a foliar?The plant uses internal calcium up, but can't bring enough new calcium in because K isn't running the stomata correctly, so water throughput can't resupply it fast enough.
Sound familiar? Plants not moving water correctly and showing both Ca and K deficiencies?
Does that Nourish product have a mixing instruction for pouring it into your soil?
Good advice.If not then I would start them on a regular feeding of seaweed/kelp. If it does I would go with the Nourish product just to see if it works, and if not then switch to the seaweed product.
The seaweed product however, will definitely work, but you know me, if there is something new to try then I just have to try it.
So here is what I see as the most important part. About a week ago you suspected a K problem. Your right there in the room with them and pictures aren't always the best at getting a proper diagnosis. Trust your gut, it seems it was correct..
Next time your gut tells you something, be a little patient, as in wait a day just to see if things are progressing in the manner that you suspected, then act on your gut instinct. It will get things fixed faster.
The waiting of a day stops knee jerk reactions which sometimes is a good thing.
Okey dokey, will do.Yes, wait on the myco until the plant needs watering. There will be some kind of instruction on the myco package for a drench, such as 1 tbsp per litre of water, or whatever they state as an amount.
Then only pour in as much as you would normally water. Pour it in in small amounts letting each small pouring completely soak in before pouring in more, and it's very important to mix it vigorously before each small pour, or else the majority of it comes out in the last pour and just sits on the surface.
The idea is to keep it mixed so every pour pushes the last pour deeper in, so you really want it mixed evenly for each pour.
That's amazing.This is a good learning experience. By reading up on K I learned that a K def will cause the plant to replace K with calcium internally, as they are both strong cations, but with K playing a major role in water uptake, water uptake is curbed, causing calcium replacement to not occur properly, thus a K def will lead to a faux calcium def too, even if calcium is abundant in the soil.
Valuable information!So thank you for that Carmen, it's good knowledge to have. If you suspect a K def and see signs of an over watered plant that isn't overwatered, and a cal def is starting, it is assurance that it's a K def
You can probably lose the heating pad now too.
