Ok, I fucked up again lol... The plant getting mega crop got watered today. I was giving nutes half strength and planned to continue that. But, being the idiot I am, I accidentally gave it full strength. I just left it like that, no flushing. Any thoughts? Think it will be ok?

 

[SoLowDolo]

Oh, and the stem on one of my plants is kind of turning reddish purple. Any thoughts?

The coloring is likely genetic. Your plants looks healthy. IF you start to get irregular brown/yellow spots on the lower leaves, then you have a phosphorus deficiency but your plant looks healthy, so no worries.

Awesome! Thanks for the reply

Thank you very much! I had to change how I held them down. I was putting stakes in the ground to hold them but they very quickly got strong enough to pop them right out of the ground lol. The past few days they have grown so fast I have had to adjust themth couple times a day to keep them where I want. But I'm a newb so I like to check on them quite often anyway!

I use steel tie wire for tying off. I cut on an anhle and press it through the side of the fabric bags

Also , unless your running co2 ive read to keep the temp as close to 75°f as possible

Yea, I am basically in the 80s for the entire lights on period. And low 70s at night. I know it's not ideal but I am just kinda hoping for the best lol. So far so good. I guess we will see...

My ww came out fluffy, almost Foxtail fluffy because a combo of heat and being dry in coco. I'm curious to see how this turns out.
I'm the guy always trying to blaze my own trail .Pun . I use g mix. Its 1:1:1 soil, coco, perlite. Coco is alot of work but I'm trying it one more time!

 

[SoLowDolo]

Took some pics today... Nothing new really... I put in a stronger fan, and one of my branches broke. I like to think that it just topped it for me lol. Oh and I accidentally snapped off a fan leaf when trying to tuck it.

So I seem to do more harm than goodas of now lol. But I'm learning...

 

[SoLowDolo]

I have officially begun flowering. I couldhave vegged longer. However, I'm not concerned about yield on my first grow since it's just for me. This is mostly about learning.

I chose to do 11/13 based on things I have read. I heard some good things and there didn't seem to be much of a downside to trying it. Here's some pics.

Picture update

 

[SoLowDolo]

My fox farms plant was hungry/thirsty today. I gave it half strength grow big and half strength tiger bloom to transition into flower. And 2 tbs. of big bloom.

 

[SoLowDolo]

I noticed this leaf today towards the top of one of my plants. I'm not freaking out yet but if anyone reads this could you give me your thoughts please?

 

[SoLowDolo]

I had to take some more pics today cuz they are stretching like crazy and it is exciting!

Here is the plant getting just fox farms. It's easily the biggest. Although I got another trying to catch up.

This is mega crop 1(mc1). It has had one more dose of mega crop than mc2. It is the runt.

Here is mc2. It's catching up to fox farms.

Here is mega crop 1 with the fox farm plant in the background to show the diff Although you can't really tell from that angle. Maybe I should have measured them lol

 

[SoLowDolo]

Quick update, and a couple pics. I think I got some nutes burn going on with my plants getting mega crop. I accidentally gave the full dose and it looked good for about a week. So I did the same on it's next feeding. I got some burnt tips now so I think I will back off a little on the nutes.

The fox farm is doing well tho. It got a half dose of veg, and half dose of flower nutes last time. And on this particular plant, all of the leaves seem to sparkle a little bit. But not the other plants.

Yes definitely learning a lot! Almost too much at once lol. But I will just be happy as long as I don't kill them prematurely before harvest. That's my only goal LOL

And good luck to you also!
