The pH had gone up a bit, to 6.05 and the Ec had dropped a bit.
The plan was to take the pH down, just a bit down around 5.6 pH.
Dropped it a bit much and had to top the res, with a little tap water to bring the pH a bit up again.
Tomorrow I think it time to bump the nutrient a bit higher, it’s the 2nd time now, the Ec have dropped from 1.7 to 1.6
Repotted a bunch of the Tohici99 plants, that haven’t been doing very well this round.
Earlyer I cut some down to make room for the cheese moms, trying to save the GPW just a little
Now I moved 8 runts into 4 pots 55 days into flower - not the best time but fuck it. If they die, they die.
Trying a new brand of clay pepples, they look a little different but I like the size and they where cheap.
Gave them a good wash, and dunked them in pH adjusted water.
What was the medium those tohici99 plants were in prior to repot bro DWC or somethin? Also with you using that black an white in the cheese factory is that effective in stopping the algae growing? Drives me insane with the fab pots I use as I imagine it doesn’t do the roots any good.
Also on topic of the grow mate looking grand as always, loving seeing this cabinet build in action after watching the build
The Tohici99 where also in hydroton prev to the repotting, just 10-20 mm in size and a different brand.
The new ones are more gray and “pellet” shaped, where the old ones are brown and round.
In the pic above, with two potted plants. Standing in a big “pot” with brown hydroton, Thats the old stuff, and the new stuff is in the pot.
Yeah it’s working nicely, still a little alge in the sides. But the root growth have improved, after they got covered up at least for the most part.
I have only flowered once in the fabric pots, I didn’t like them as they humidity was hard to keep down.
I like them for my moms, and the canopy seems to takes care of blocking out the light just fine.
And thanks for the positive words, im not yet happy myself but im prolly my own hardest judge.
Things are all right, im getting nice bud!
The roots are really enjoying the pandafilm, there is still a bit alge remaining. Might not go away, but it don’t grow.
That can’t be said about the root, they are growing well in the dark moist enviroment.
The triplets are still alive, the smallest runt is still struggeling.
But it looks like it’s starting to form a growtip, so I keep taking care of it. Just to see if I can nurse it into a plant.
I split one off, while it was very very little.
Scroll up, there should be pics of the little “squid” seed with 3 tap roots, when I split it and planted.
Edit, that was posted in a different thread, my bad.
pH is droppin a bit but not more then, toppin the res will bring it up to 5.65 again.
Haven’t topped the res for the last few days, I’ll wait a day or two before I top it again.
Day 58
The Tohici99’s are doing okay, they don’t look too healthy but they are packing up all right.
Would have been nice, if they had grown a bit taller.
The cheese moms are looking good, they are on day 29 like their daughters in the LED cabinets.
Buds look a bit bigger under the LED, but they didn’t struggle in the first weeks either.
They are eating nicely, thinking it might soon be time to bump the nutrients again.
Keep them on 1.8ich for the next 5 days, and do a res change halfway thru the grow.
Just takes soo long to finish, at least this pheno does.
Was the only female that I got from the old seeds, will try and crack the rest at some point.
To see if I can find one, that finishes a bit faster then 13-14 weeks.
Over all its very nice smoke, in the test grows they did better during the streach.
I saved the one male, that survived as well.
So if the rest of the seed are duds, I can always cross thouse.
But would like to see if I cant get a better selection of them, before I start breeding with them.
