Update
July 2Day - 60/ Flower Day - 11
What’s goin on everyone! I hope your all well, warm, and medicated! To start things off today I’ve got a few photos of the 20:1 CBD girls that have been residing in my drybox this past week! I’m officially out of room in all my tents and I’m patiently waiting for these Autoflowers to finish off and give me a bit more room!
Next up is the 4x4!! With all these lovely ladies continuing to stretch it’s becoming quite the scene opening up the tent! Beautiful thick stalks and massive healthy leaves these girls are going to be pretty impressive in a few weeks time I think! I’ve put together a little chart showing the growth so far from the start of flower until yesterday evening when I measured again! Some of these girls have already almost doubled in size and still have a week+ left of Stretch! They will all need a good defoliation once stretch has stopped to help focus on the upper growth and create better airflow. I’m not touching them for a bit yet to let the stretch finish off before doing a heavy defoliation.
Let’s check some numbers!!
Chemovar | Flower D-1 | Flower D-10 |
Wedding Cake #2 | 16” | 35.5” |
Wedding Cake #4 | 19” | 37” |
BadAzz Kush #1 | 15.5” | 30” |
BadAzz Kush #2 | 17” | 29.25” |
Canuk Cookies #1 | 16.5” | 30.5” |
These criticals are way bigger than my last 2x and I’m excited to see how they perform with MegaCrop instead of my AN lineup! So far they are stacked up and looking fantastic!!
Now my 3x3 tent is a bit sad today. After turning on the 3rd SP-150 yesterday I’ve noticed a couple have been light stressed so I backed the lights off about 4” for now. They are currently sitting 20” above the canopy with all 3x SP-150s on!! Now not only are a few looking a bit light stressed but I have noticed I’m getting some tip burn and damage to a couple of leaves on a few of the plants. From what I can tell it’s an excess of “K” and I believe it is from my last feeding where I went a little higher on my MegaCrop (6.0g/Gal) and added in 1gram of SweetCandy which is “0-0-16”.
I fed my 4x4 girls with a similar feeding but they are all much bigger and also in the beginning of flower.
This is the first time I’ve encountered an issue with an overdose of feeding. Until now I have always been feeding light but I’ve been pushing these girls on the MegaCrop to see what my upper limits are!
Now my course of action to revert and fix this problem is to flush all the effected plants with a good soaking of water mixed with a “LOW” dose of MegaCrop. I was reading about dealing with this problem earlier and with MegaCrop being a complete feed regime it will work best with a light feed-flush. Allowing up to a week before increasing the feed again and finding my max level.
If anyone has any thoughts/opinions on this matter please let me know otherwise I’ll be taking this course of action tomorrow to begin flushing and resetting!
Again this problem only showed on 4 of the 8 girls in the 3x3 so it’s not a massive problem. With a good flush and low feed they should bounce back and get back on track before flip day in about a weeks time!
A few pictures for your eyes to help diagnose! It’s only the upper leaves that are getting effected with the burns and lower leaves are slightly wilted. This lead me to believe it was a “K” overage...
Lastly I will be transplanting the clones tomorrow into their first soil homes and giving them all a light feeding to settle them in! I’ll be taking cuttings from the girls in the 3x3 this weekend as long as they are all healthy and doing better.
That’s about it for this update!
Stay Medicated!
