The Growing Room

Otter, these are from clone ive put them in a mix of freedom farms formula 1. Which is coco/perlite 70/30 with worm castings. Ive added a bit more perlite & vermiculite & about 1 quarter potting soil. 20 L pots
Added some dried kelp, bonemeal, calcitic lime & diatomaceous earth to the soil. I have been feeding them biogrow from biobizz. I have realised my ph has been consistently lower than 6.0 so the last feed I made as sure as possible that it was up at 6.5 . I feed again tomorrow, i think.

Thanks, I'm not familiar with your mix. Hopefully you'll see + change soon.
Real nice grow area.

Thanks its my first with lights. Hoping to move to using tents specific to light sizes after this room though.
Im hoping the mix isnt whats causing the mix up lol. Me thinks and hopes its a ph range problem. Me thinks also maybe I will go grab a ph meter for the soil.
The soil mix and ratio is a tip from a foreign friend. If it works out good and its worth sharing, I wil .

Some defoliation today. And feeding

 

[Mickey Pearson]

Im nervous as heck. Flipped the switch. Its dark now. Have had 24 hour light. So I could just walk in and visit forever whenever. Its my first grow and the first time I can just go make sure. The feeling is weird. Was thinking about that 36 hour thing. Skipping it

Why are your lights so far away from your plants? Cannabis has better growth with a light cycle that allows them to sleep as on a 18/6 light scheduled. 24 hours has been proven to stunt growth.

Have been worried about burning them will move them closer. Just raised them today before lights out , only about four of five inches though.

I dont think I will do the 24 hours again it was bad advice from a friend..... by the time i knew better , it was too late. Thanks for the tips

Little veg_ing box, just for now

Looking good, make sure you get more light ASAP as that one small LED is not enough light and your seedling will stretch. Its pretty close so it should be good for a little.

Veg light Accomplished . Made a small closet setup for her too !

 

[Mickey Pearson]

New Lighting in. Very Exciting. For Flower
I had to loose two blurples. Personal Stuff.

So have sacrificed the 100 w. Veg light to cober the missing area in the flower room. Its looking good. And looking at getting a cheap HPS 100w as a replacement to Veg with for now.

Flowers are starting to form will try get some close ups soon.

Happy Growing Homies

Not a joke evens. I feel not just like I have six babies, but that I have six babies and six different baby mommas, at the same time. If that makes sense. Whole different worlds. Trying to create a uniform process for all of them at once, to me seems too silly to even attempt. Each girl needs a name, cos she is gonna have her own game going on.

But you ain't got no baby mommas Lieutenant dan. You're a single daddy.

Thank you, I am for sure. Sprayed again yesterday woth ludwigs. Day before I used some diatomaceous earth on the soil. The war wages on

Has anyone tried using lady bugs for pest problems? I hear you can buy lady bugs at some garden centers.
