Hi guys, just wanted to share the progress from a few months back. I screwed up quite abit whith that whole pH thing earlier in the season.
With all the positive feedback, help and support I received on 420Magazine.com I wanted to share the latest update.
I ended up buying a pound of recharge as suggested by Emilya. Thank you once again for your tips advice and patience. Lol I stopped messing with the pH. I totally sh*t the bed in that department. “There are no successes without failures.”
Been giving them aerated tea every ten days approx. and using the a double dose of recharge every second watering. Which was about every 6 days for the month of july. They are getting thirstier now. So they are getting a dose of recharge every 5 days now... as well as some of it in the aerated teas.
They are nowhere near what I was hoping and/or expecting. However it’s better than nothing and I have learned a ton this season.
Planning on experimenting with clones this fall even re-vegging a plant as an experiment, maybe two. We’ll see.
The following were all feminized seeds from mjseeds in BC.
1. Master Kush (free seeds) > which was the most problematic to be honest. It took forever to catch. I found that it likes the nutrients ALOT. (Maybe because I shocked it so much earlier on) so she started to take off when I increased its dosage mix July. *thumbs up it’s about 18” high. Pretty small.
2. Fucking Incredible (purchased) > this one was the most vigourous for everyone who had her. A buddy of mine’s is 8’ feet others are at 6’. MINE. Approx. 3’ feet. Did a lot of pinching and super cropping experimenting with the trellis/SCROG. Which isn’t working out so well I don’t think due to the movement of the sun. It would be better if it was an indoor light (stationary) not sure if I will do it this way again. I had just readjusted all the branches thru the squares and pulled a few of them down to get more light inside.
3 & 4. white widow (paid) > I am very surprised how small and bushy they are. Once again I screwed up big time in June. My buddy’s turn out great over 6’ full bushy and healthy. (He picked his up at the right time) these two are at approx. 2’ feet in height. I’m hoping for short dense colas on these. *fingers crossed. I’m guess-timating 4 to 5 weeks of more veg growth during flowering.
My aerated tea recipe will be changing once they go into flower. As well as using a mung bean sprouted tea.
And 5. white widow (my rescue) lol > this was pretty much dead..... trimmed her down to a 3” stem/stalk and cut all the leaves off and she sprouted back. Lmao
Thinking of putting her under a 24 or 18 hour light cycle soon to see what she will do in the off season.
Once again a big thank you to everyone for your advise and support and a big thank you to 420magazine.com for creating and bringing us growers from all walks of life together, one post and thread at a time.
