First grow ever. Diesel, Apple Jack, Killa-watt. 600w mh/hps. 4×4 tent. ultra coir. blue planet

[neewb432]

lovin' the grow man, I want to see how that Apple Jack turns out ;)

Thank you. Me too. Seems to be the most appealing of the three for a general smoke. So far very easy to grow. Have 11 clones in the cloneking. Prolly going to flip first next week

dont worry about the p.h. meter being off,it looks to me like you might be keeping your soil to wet all the time,the roots will start to shrivel "like your fingers will after being in water too long"they start to die off and nutrient uptake is effected and everything else alot of the time it starts off looking like a calmg deficiency,How ofetn do you water?do you let the soil dry up some?

Every third day. At this point its getting pretty dry between waterings

Here is a peak at clones. 6 days tap water through rain shower filter. Cuts in clonex gel for a few min. Spay with tap twice a day. 7ph or so. Then 2 days home and garden root excelorator with 6.1 ph. Have cloneking on ac vent in master bath. Ac set at 70 with fan on continous. 2-23w cfl 19-5. About 6 inches from tops. 2 left rows diesel. Center 2 apple jack. Right 2 killa-watt.

So I just read through your entier thread here and I have to agree with @socalpunx it does seem like you are staying just a Lil bit to wet most of the time looking good for your first time growing not to mention your clones seem to be doing OK they have root at 6 days that's what I get by 12-14 they are ready with nice long roots good job and good luck

 

[neewb432]

Well i took 27 out of 29 clones into solo cups. Sunshine ultra. 20% fed them. Week 1 blue planet. The 2 i didnt take have roots but only like 4.

Did 15 gal flush on other three. 40ml grow, bloom, micro. 20ml calimagic. 150ml ff sledge hammer. 2000+ ppm runoff before. Flush was 600 ppm. Runoff 620ish. Also did some more trimming/clone taking.

You really think every three days on plants 60 days in veg in 5 gal pots of coco are over watered. I think i locked them up not watering enough. All three had 2000+ runoff ppm.

Well honestly it has very little to do with days it has to do with the moisture being used in the substrate they need to be dry at least once a week or you risk root problem like fungus , mold or just plain root rot as for locking them up you only do that by to much feeding to little feeding or not flushing as plants use up their NPK at different rates which is why the numbers very so much Brad to brand and if you feed with a 12-3-3 or something like that you would be lacking in P - K but may be nitro toxic as it used all of the P-K but has plenty of N left since it has not used it all yet at which point you would be late for a flush

I think you are correct. 2 days after flush she feels like she hasnt used any of the feed. Other 2 plants are super light. First grow. I just fed them all. Guess i prolly should have noticed along time ago.

just caught the thread, spent the time to catch up, great set-up healthy ladies btw. Never grown dinafem but this thread got my attention! excellent work!

I got 20+ clones of the killa and apple. Going to flip the others prolly tomo. So still 3 months before anything at the least. :cigar:

Well these are things that take a long time to notice at a first glance just keep posting updates and asking questions if you have any and within a year or so you will get the hang of it and understand more of what the plant tells you and what it may need if you haven't already I would get some books and if you have some read them over and over and don'tjust stick to cannabis bibles get some regular horticulture books in there as well van patten has some good ones then there is Greg green if you have Jorge cervantes ( IMO some will differ from this) Throw it away or at least for get what he told you alot of it will get you into bad habits and lead you down a narrow path not only in technique but narrow minded as well you made the first and best step starting here @THCFarmer. this is the best place to get basic information and help and if you meet the rite people the best information but here just like all forums everyone thinks theirs is the best lol just keep on trucking bro you are on the way to succeed for sure

Sorry for what i love to see them under that purple hue it is nice to see some color from time to time tho doing great now i see you are using solo cups (not recommended by many) I do it anyway ( something about the plastic meh idc) any who's I would assume u put holes in the bottom somewhere! IMO it is best for seedlings/cuttings to bottom feed makes the roots seek water down not receive from above to do this just get a small tub like a rubbermaid 2x3 fill it up a bit (like an Inch above the floor but i go as far as 3/4 up the cup you then have to hold them down for about 15 min tho ) and set your seedlings/cuttings in that for an hour or two I'm about an hour or until they feel heavy at the tops not just at the bottom sometimes this does not happen it's fine put a small bit in the tops of those that wonderful and give the top a Lil squeeze next time it will go fine it's far less stressful for them to soak the water than have a root disturbance from the top plus it's just plain easier and cleaner

Here is an example of what I do in about an hour the tops will be nice and wet and i set the on the side on the bathtub to drain off for 10 min or so I really like to do tea this way it just seems way better when you can shake the tea in (gently) and not just pour it on top I feel like the soil filters it out before it gets mid way down however I have air pots so I can get it in the sides not sure that's how it really works just what I think seems logical with plain pots and top feeding
