Fills 1st. IndoorGrow or the Zen of flying&growing weed :-)

Yeah id say 62 is too cold. I usually try to keep my high under 85 low around 70-72 then late flower ill let it drop to 66 or lower if i can get it there. But once you go lower than 70 growth seems to slow down. But its good for ripening buds that already stacked. Advanced nutrients makes good products just expensive to run the full lineup. They all specifically leave out certain nutrients from each part to make you buy the other part to not fall deficient somewhere. I was on the true plant science but now see they have all the extras too. They have a all in one but at $80 a gal they can keep it. I want to go with guano teas but cant get the right guanos here.

a little update. My tent is crowded !
Sent them flowering about a week ago. Now look !

Glad I ll get my 2 HLG-260 QB s today ! ! ! ! Will post a pict with the new lights !

Have to go to work soonā€¦ so byebye for now ! More of this very soonā€¦ I hopeā€¦

Nice grow. I donā€™t know how I missed your thread, but Iā€™m now subbed and want to see how you handle that forest of yours. Iā€™m new to tents. So I find grows like this fascinating. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work with those babies.

@Rooted, @ReikoX, @Foreigner, @George, @AUM, @ifish and to all you experts out thereā€¦!

Little trouble in my paradiseā€¦ Please look at the picts and tell me, what you see/what you thinkā€¦

In general, the leafs of all my plants are having a sick, dark green - and some yellow leafs at the bottom to take away.
No. 2 has what I think, burned leafs. Pot is light. Last feeding 2 days ago. Seems she s taking up much water in order to sweat it off ?

Do this end of leafs mean anything ?

Looking bad - have started to flush her with pHed waterā€¦

Feeding details is following. Need a break and some fresh airā€¦

Very dark green leaves, and the slight claw in the first pic sounds like too much N. But the claw isnā€™t that bad really. The leaves donā€™t look that green either.

The brown crusty oneā€¦I dunno.

I agree with the excess of N, on the flowering stage it is not so necessary. Regarding the crusty one, as it curl upwards according to this it could be lack of Magnesium. You should not bother about the yellow leaves at the bottom ā€¦ :sunglasses:

Yeah im thinking along n tox too. Current feed watertank? Do you have a pk booster? And keep em wet. Dont let em dry out to being light. Cut the calmag out run just the advanced nutrients. If you have a flower (pk) booster list it here so i know what youre working with. Youre flowering now so nitrogen levels can be reduced and cut out completely towards harvest.
Current feed? And do you have pk booster?

Hola amigo :slight_smile:

Yeah, like the other souls I think as well there are too much nutes. The brownish leafes I dunno either :green_heart:

But they are looking good so far! :slight_smile:

Sorry friends for letting you wait this long for the feeding data. I just wanted to get 5 min of fresh, cold air. I ended up flying with my paragliderā€¦

Ok, so here what they have consumed two days ago:
2 ml/lt of Sensizym, Piranha, Tarantula, Voodoo Juice and Bud Candy
1 ml/lt of CalMag (cause of light green colour of leafs)

The pH was 6.18 EC 0.48 and ppm 234ā€¦

@rooted. What is a pk booster ?

I feed about every 3rd day two liters each. They have about half liter run off. The pots are light but not totally dry. I feed like this since 2 weeks. Start of 12/12 periodā€¦

Could the new and stronger light play a role ?
Do I have to flush all of them or just watch what I m feeding ?

Thank you for your time and wisdom :slight_smile:

Too much! 2ml x 5 = 10 nutes per liter? Did i get that right brother?

Ok, then how many liter water you give the last watering? :pray:

Here you can find the G.H. Powder Feeding Booster additive, 234 ppm is pretty low for flowering period, perhaps those yellow leaves appear because the plant is cannibalizing herself as sheĀ“s hungry and must eat the nutes stored in her leaves.

You should test the runoff and check the ppm and pH of that runoff, lights will affect only if too close to the canopy, try to hang higher those lamps ā€¦ :sunglasses:

2 ml nutes per liter of each.

For example a res of 20 liter water gets 40 ml of Sensizym, then 40 ml of each other product mentioned. But only 20 ml total ( 1ml/lt) of CalMag (for the colour of leafs)

After mixing one component after the other with the water I check pH, EC and ppm.
Almost all the time I must bring down pH from around 6.8 down to 6.1 to 6.3.

That s itā€¦ Then every plant gets 2 liters. Usually there is about o.5 lt runoff per plantā€¦

ā€¦ ahhh I love you guys, you are so scientific, friendly,

prompt at service and competent, its such a joy

to see those wonderful virtues here, thank you George :slight_smile:

Agree with you, George. But how can I influence this ppm value ?

After mixing product after product with the water, pH can be influenced - EC and ppm not. Or am I wrong here ?

If EC s too high I can put some more pHed water. Same with ppm. But if these values are too low, what can I do ?

Is ppm going up with this G.H. Powder Feeding Booster ?

I m a bit fed up with all this different additives and nutes and this and that.

Next round I ll try only MaxiBloom from GH and pro Silicate 0-0-4.

Edit. Or only Florians living organics. Nothing elseā€¦ https://www.florganics.de/

I feel exactly this way. Iā€™ve used an all in one product for awhile now with good results.

Honestly I could never remember if Iā€™ve added what to which in what quantity when.

Simplicity is underrated.

Well, I should use the KISS method, but my noob condition made me always complicate things. Iā€™ve got Advanced nutrients pH perfect, if after mixing ppmā€™s were low, I started to add things (Kelp, CalMag, molasses, Epsom salt, banana tea and other boosters Iā€™ve got) until I reached the desired ppmā€™s.

That was before, because now I follow Colanoscopyā€™s advice and just add 4 ml/liter of each AN bottles (Grow, Micro and Flora) and even donā€™t check the ppm. Plants like simplicity and routine, imagine one day you go to a chinese restaurant, next to a mexican with spicy food, then to a japanese and finally to a Mc Donaldā€™s, your stomach wouldnā€™t resist that for a long time ā€¦

You should use a general nutrient mix (A + B) or three bottles as mine, and then some complements if you see they lack some component, finally, in the end, some bud booster. Those nutrient kits almost cover everything the plant needs and shet gets used to them, it is not easy to ā€œreadā€ plants, I suppose it is something you will acquire with experience, but making things complicated doesnā€™t suppose having better results.

That PK booster will increase your ppm, you can also try to increase the ml per liter of those nutrients, but that could lean to some excess if they share the same components, read their composition first ā€¦ :sunglasses:

I would go for something specific for weed, Advanced Nutrients pH perfect and forget to check the pH if the soil is appropriate ā€¦ :sunglasses:

Florganics IS specific for weed ! AUM is using it ! look at his plantsā€¦ the gardener who created Florganics is a smoker like we areā€¦ You cant know, George, cause you have nt visited his website. Sorry, in germanā€¦

Anyhowā€¦ I would never use your KISS formula. Why not ? It s impossible to do the same mix twice. Impossible to reproduce the exact mix.
I grow in cocos and use AN as well. pH perfect ? my skinny ass ! From the approx. 20 feedings I made till now, there was only ONE mix with a pH I didnt had to correct ! Who knows ? It seems to work for you growing in earthā€¦

Anyhow - I m quite pissed to waste my precious time with waiting till the pH meter has decided what he wants to show :wink: I will make it simpler the next growā€¦ I ll let you know when I m thereā€¦ :slight_smile:

Now I ll have some breakfast. TRhen I ll post an update of my growā€¦ stay tuned :slight_smile:

A crispy cold wonderful day has started here in Central Switzerland ! How blessed I am to be able to live here, where folks are coming from as far as Korea and Japan to spend vacations here !

:om_symbol: OM SHANTI SHANTI SHANTI :om_symbol:

Good morning friends of gardening and sweet smoke !

Hello to @Tappy, @Rooted, @AUM, @George, @beacher, @Foreigner, @iFish, @funkyjunky, @ReikoX, @DatDamDog and all the other enlighted beings here on OG !

Haven t been here for a while and will post an update now of my experienceā€¦ Here we goā€¦

GROW 1 - DAY 88

The food I give my plants since 2 weeks:

  • 1.25 ml/lt. of Connoiseur Bloom A + B
  • 2 ml/lt. of Sensizyme, B-52, Big Bud and Bud Candy

In general I feed every 2. or 3. day two liters per plant. There is only little run off. About 0.2 lt.

But a picture tells more then 1000 wordsā€¦ So please see for yourself. Pls tell me, what YOU
see ! Any suggestions ? critics ? curious what you think about themā€¦

No. 4 - rather skinny, little branches, little budsā€¦ but a nice, dark and healthy green !
Love her all the same :slight_smile:

No. 7 - good looking - not too many leafs on top but many branches with lots of buds !
A nice one !

No. 1 - a nice one ! maybe not as healthy as she could be ? any suggestions ?

One more No. 1 shotā€¦

No. 5 - one of my best looking plants ! Many branches with lots of buds !
just very lovely !

No. 5 - close upā€¦

No. 6 - one big cola and many many branches with lots of buds ! my mouth is already watering :wink:

No. 8 - rather small compared to the others. Some leafs looking burned.

Edit. In order to see plant 4 and 8 as whole, you need to click on itā€¦

Here some picts from the inside of my tent. I need all the space I can get for them !

I made a construct of some bamboo sticks to reclaim some wasted space. Cause of the minus pressure all the walls were looking inside and taking unnecessary space. Hope you understand what I m talking about.
