Hello there,
I’ve come back to do another grow log.
Mainly for myself to help keep track of things. But I know you guys enjoy following along with most grows.
Trying a few different methods on each plant.
Gonna take some clones from the tallest.
Seems the healthiest. Growing like crazy, branches are getting long. Overall best of the 4
Using a few cheap LED light panels.
Maxi-Bloom
Gypsum, and a slight bit of CalMag
First time growing with some actual space.
Working out of a 4x4 essentially
Nov 27th
Have been in flower about 4 days now.
The big one got too tall, too quickly, and I was running out of room… so I decided to just flip them all.
Trimmed the bottom fan leaves to keep decent airflow.
Pulled off bottom small branches, that aren’t getting any light.
Dec 10th
Buds are really starting.
Water intake has increased considerably.
Starting to slowly feed more.
Does anyone have any recommendations for additives?
I know people use things like “big bud” and “bloom” stuff.
Never really deviated from my simple ways
Plants look healthy, congrats. Personally I wouldn’t spend $ on anything until you improve your lighting, it’s obviously your biggest limiting factor at the moment. Looks like you are on your way to a harvest, good luck!
I did upgrade lights.
Got a way bigger panel.
A 500 Watt LED, rather than a few 45 Watt panels. Keeping a few smaller panels down lower, for lower nodes
Definitely brighter. Penetrates deeper into the plants 100%
I did pollinate a few of the flowers just 2 days ago.
Can’t wait to play with some breeding a bit.
2nd half of first (tall) plant is chopped and drying.
2nd plant is taking a bit longer.
White hairs, clear trichs
Its definitely developing more color than the first one.
I feel the first plant finished super fast (as well as I probably rushed it a bit) most if not all hairs on buds were red/brown
Getting spots of amber trichs.
This is the one still going. The shorter of the two.
I was a bit curious.
Some of the sugar leaves are pretty long, almost looking like fan leaves.
Spread throughout most of the bud
Whereas most buds you see, are more conical, mostly bud up top, them more leafy towards the bottom.
Are mine just not stacking properly because of too much nitrogen?
I know I kept my maxibloom pretty high during flower because I wanted to pack in as much phosphorus and potassium as possible. But I realize maxibloom has a decent bit of nitrogen as well.
Considering now I have some other supplements and whatnot, would reducing my maxibloom on flower, and increase the other stuff be my fix?
