First Grow. White Widow, Qbs, Dwc, 4x4

[Slappyjack]

Right on.

I think I may have fim'ed her instead of topped. I guess I'll know in a couple days. LOL

I'm starting up my hydro room soon with Jacks 3-2-1.

 

[Slappyjack]

Ignore that burned tip. It was caused by spilling beer on her. Beer is no longer allowed near the tent.

Res change out yesterday. pH 5.8. 550ppm. Lights at 36" with no stretch.

Root color is from nutes I think. Nothing slimy in there, and smells normal.

 

[Slappyjack]

Definitely fim'ed her. Don't know if it was wise or not, but I topped it to correct the mistake.

 

[Slappyjack]

Turns out correcting my fim wasn't a bad choice. Lots of new growth. I'll start LST after I get some length on the new tops. When's a good time to remove the large lower leaves that are blocking new growth, or should I leave them? The quantum boards have great penetration from what I've read, and I lowered the light around 10".

and I lowered the light around 10".

I never used LED but 10” seems way too close to me, I wouldn’t try it especially on a plant that young.

 

[Slappyjack]

I'm still 28" from the top of her. Was 38".

Oh my bad, thought you said new distance was 10” lol

All good. I appreciate all input.

Any input on removing the 4 big fan leaves? Each of them are blocking branches with multiple nodes.

Also, she's drawing the nute level down. Pulled it from 550 to 500 over night. I'm going to bump it up until it holds steady.

IMO, remove fan leaves that are shading bud sites.

Popped off the ones blocking the most light.

Starting week 3 of veg today. The 2 new mains are going strong. Did a res change out. 5.8pH, 650ppm.

She’s a beauty!

Do all of these grow symmetrically, or is it strain specific? Either way, mine is doing exactly what I want it to.

Crude pic attached. Green was the main that I topped a week ago. Blue got topped today. Red is getting topped in a couple days. That'll fill my screen ot nicely.

I'm starting some AK47 autos outdoor too. Mixed up some compost, bat guano, worm castings, blood meal, and perlite in a a couple 10 gallon cloth pots.

If they’re seeds they’ll grow symmetrically, if their adults they lose the symmetric appearance and it becomes more of a zig zag node

Right on. Thanks.

I had to go out of town for an emergency, so I've been unable to check my grow since Wednesday last week. Thought I'd come home to major problems.

pH 5.9. 650ppm

I scrolled up to last week, great progression so far, it doubled in size from the looks of it
