Re: MrMysfyt's 2nd - Budmaster II 1200 GOD LED Colored - Soil - 5'x5' Tent Journal -
Right, back on track after five weeks off....
The path of growing is sometimes never smooth and this grow is testament to that. There have been multiple problems in flowering:
1. I initially had a problem with one of the carbon filter clips falling off and lowered the Budmaster light by two feet to reach the top of the tent, subsequently forgetting to raise it back up. I hadn't quite realised the power of these lights until two days later when I discovered all the top leaves becoming bleached.
2. After the success of the last grow, I became a bit complacent and hadn't realised just how quickly the cloth Rhizopots sometimes dry out. After a few days away, I came back to the plants looking really bedraggled and gagging for water.
3. I started with what looked to be a cal-mag deficiency, but this was quickly remedied and all isn't totally lost.
Here's a couple of pictures of the four girls:
The two largest plants are the Blue Dream with signs of bleaching where they were exposed to too much light and later cal-mag deficiency.
The ladies are now five weeks from switching to 12/12 and have around another four weeks until harvest. I haven't started dropping the night time temperatures just yet, but plan to start from next week to see if I can force colour change in the leaves and buds during the remaining flowering time this time around.
Happy growing to everyone and I'll catch up with some of your journals soon
@MedFarmer..... just a gentle reminder that it's now bilberry season and this year is a bumper crop. If you can find any plants in your locality, I promise that you won't be disappointed! Had my first 'mucky-mouth' pie last weekend.... it was fantastic
