time for a little update here everything seems good in the flower tent, don't wana wait too long before flowering these girls. will see if I can't fit a different mother in the GDs place. already got 5 GDs vegging outside for a full run later. looks like the GD reveg is gona take too long.

little update here. Wednesday evening I mixed 3ml of each Humic and Fulvic Acid in 4L water. Gave each plant 500ml. haven't seen any crazy reaction which sets me at ease, but I think they're ready for a half dose of Fishmix, they look to be at a stand still for now. a little too late already with all the yellowing, but it's time to give the poor ladies some N.

When you tell me that you feed Bloom during veg.. we are feeding liquid, not slow releasing... that means the plant automatically absorbs P/K in amounts she doesn't need and will go dark due to Phosphorus abundance... not to much N There is ZERO need during veg for any flower food, bro. Best examples are my healthy mothers in the mother tent, they only get Grow 2ml/L (little sugar to keep the microbes happy in the soil, i add a lot more molasses as is in Grow when i flower feed, so i use Fish and add by hand, using my Grow stash up on my mothers now, lasts forever ) and Amino Pro 2ml/10L. Haven't seen any P/K for years ^^ and happy ladies, green and sexy. In short words.. don't feed flower food during veg not helping

How much is half dosage? ^^ i never drop below 2ml per liter fish-mix

Greetings all Righto. Will be starting hopefully very soon. My plans: Since I'm new to autos I will be taking the safe route feeding wise. Will be filling pots with freedom farm seedling mix and planting in final 10L pot size. Will try 15L and 20L later since I already had the 10L fabric pots from the last grows. 60cmx60cmx170cm tent Budget 110w led light Biobizz indoor try pack. Grow bloom and topmax Biobizz activera Biodyne 401 Since I have seagro I might replace the biogrow with small dose seagro until preflower for the proteins and then switch to biogrow. Not sure if i should pop 2 white prussian for the pilot run incase I mess something up as I'm rusty or should go 1 prussian and 1 zkittlez. Edit: forgot to mention I will be using Newlands spring water. Tap water is sitting at 7.2 ph so it's usable incase of an emergency. Pics coming soon. Sent from my VOG-L09 using Tapatalk

Big tent is a week into flip. Going well and starting to begin preflower. I must throw in a net at some point soon. Smaller tent is about two weeks to harvest. Probably one of the nicest finish to a ZxP run I've had in a while. Usually the fade is underway at this point but I'm glad to see the ripening is pushing a little later. The plants look overall still keen to keep going full speed ahead. Organic Tent™ is probably having one of the worst runs of the year. The OMGs in my opinion did not have a great run. I feel I overstressed them too soon with crazy training. The Wedding Cakes are probably the better of the plants that will come out of this tent. I will keep one of the OMGs and try a rerun when I pop some fresh seeds again. Harvest will be roughly same time as the smaller tent with the ZxP. I'll time the harvest around the Wedding Cake and the rest will just have to follow.

lol why would you be thinking it's the 1ml of fish that made the P and K toxicity, I never said that only cause you asked what's half dose for me with fish cause you said you go 2ml, so I said I usually go 1ml normal dose. not that this is what the plants been getting. I am however now going to be giving them half fish working up to full dose. I don't follow the nutrient schedule as you can see my plants don't need too much nutes. I haven't given any bloom either since they still vegging. I mix my own soil from spent FF premium classic, I add elemental blend every time. This time I also added insect frass and kelp flakes. spent the whole of August away with work shit, tents shut down plants in the sun all under a 150w flood light till midnight. not the smartest thing to do in the middle of a grow when I got back ladies where not happy looking, so I jumped in cleaned them nicely and for about 4 waterings I gave them all 1ml of each Grow, Fish and Bloom. this is what I usually do when I see that kind of lacking. you can see my flower tent has responded well, they're also a bit dark green, so I've backed off there too, just clean water till normal grow then back to 1ml alternating. these plants are a bit younger and I am assuming the P and K in the 1ml Grow+Fish+Bloom mix was just a bit too much. ultimately, when mixing my own soil, I go for a -just add water- kinda soil. I only wana add nutes if I reeeaally have too. I don't want to depend on them.

How can you go toxic with 1ml per liter??? Or how much bloom you chuck in??

I usually work on 1ml per liter, so half dose for me would be 0.5ml these ladies been on a bounce back from a P and K toxicity, so I have been giving just water for about 2 weeks, they starting to show N deficiency and I was notified a P and K toxicity can also show as N deficiency and to give Humic and Fulvic acids, I don't wana add any more P or K really so this is the reason for half dose Fish, working my way back up to full dose.

My gardeners delight batch also going strong. All 118 of them, fcuk I need a hol lotta more soil. Guess I'll be doing a brutal selection and elimination. A few have 3 first true leaves compared to 2. These are also in the new test soil by the way. Sent from my SM-A032F using Tapatalk

First nice surprise. Metal corners instead of nylon as advertised [emoji16]

Glad to report back, a decent success. Seems like the polystyrene cups with composted manure have sprouted the best. The transplanting of them was simple, and definitely no root stress.

Clones can be very sensitive when replanted into soil. They are used to the environment that they were cloned from (high humidity dome etc.) The dark green and clawing tells me that the soil is a bit hot. I would suggest water only sparingly and see what happens. The thrips mentioned isn't ideal either. Maybe sprinkle some DM earth over your topsoil as preventative and don't fiddle with the plant too much. I had a similar issue and as soon as i just let her go, she recovered perfectly.

The curl might also be because the plants don't like the spray you gave em. I have no experience with Dr Ludowigs Thingy Thing, Somebody in here used it? Never use more as the recommended dosage. A organic I like to use for insects is this one: https://hydrobiz.co.za/products/xterminator Lift your pots.. heavy means no feeding. I grew over 1000 plants and till this day I lift a few pots of a tray to decide if i feed or not. The moment i can ask the plants in what language ever: Are you hungry? And they answer.. i will stop lifting up pots

What soil you use, how often do you water and how much wind is on the plants? I exclude light and heat/cold stress as don't think is your issue. If you didn't over water them or gave em to much fertilizer.. pests can do that too. And always respray.. even you think is clean, during veg you can hit em hard.

Small update here, GD finally showing signs of reveg. Letting the Cheese bush out and do their own thing in the meantime. I'll make sure the tent looks the way it needs to before flip. Maybe a drop or two too much N here for these ladies. GD reveg

I dont disagree, I was pulling out our autos root systems to see what was going on under the soil, and that is exactly what I saw. The root space is of auto is tiny, wish I had taken a picture.

I have topped the plants in the big tent. Two of the plants at the most bottom right are showing those initial signs of deficiency I've been having in some of my recent grows and I am putting blame on the transplant this time. They had the least developed roots and are now stressing or the roots are struggling to uptake nutrition. For now I have given them a potassium silicate additive foliar feed and I went ahead and just sprayed all the plants. I am hoping that in the time it takes to build the canopy the two laggers will catch up. Smaller tent is developing some really nice bud so far. All the bud sites are looking good. I'm expecting this to be a very good run even considering the initial bump in the beginning regarding the medium pH.

Got the tent prepped and set for the next one Smaller tent is flowering on. I've defoliated the Organic Tent™ and also pruned the smaller plants into their final forms. The tent itself is looking pretty stacked. The Wedding Cake just has that ultimate sweet smell of vanilla, I look forward to that fully flowering.
