Have been using another forum, but that website seems to get toxic at times so I’m looking for a change.
I’m already 8 weeks into this current grow, and 3 weeks into flower so I’ll give some basic info on the grow and then give a weekly update moving forward.
Genetics are ILGM OG Kush autoflower.
Growing in a 18x18x56 grow tent. Using 4in ac infinity inline fan for active outtake, and a 6 inch oscillating ac infinity fan. I have a 2nd 6 inch fan on the floor of the tent to circulate air under the canopy.
Using a 3 gallon fabric pot and Soil in pot is as follows:
Bottom 1/2= 75% strawberry fields, 25% perlite, 1 1/2 tbs dolomite lime
Top 1/2 = 37.5% happy frog, 37.5% ocean forest, 25% perlite, 1 1/2 tbs dolomite lime.
I added dolomite lime to the soil mix after reading up about PH issues in fox farm soil. PH was my main issue last grow, so I added it to see if it would help.
150w Viparspectra xs is set to around 85%, in slowly moving it to 100%. The light is at about 18 inches from the top of the canopy.
We’re in week 3 of flower and the bud sites are starting to develop nicely.
I am using Gaia Green nutes. I top fed 2 tbs bloom and 1 tbs all purpose the first feeding at week 4, and 2.5 bloom and .5 all purpose at week 7. I have been supplementing with recharge once a week and adding fish shit to each watering to improve the health of microbes. I’ve also given one watering with 1tbs molasses and will giVe a bit more soon. I don’t want to overdue the molasses but I have heard/read of the benefits in flower so I want to give it a try.
I ran into some deficiencies earlier in the grow, about week 5. It was a magnesium deficiency that In the end I was able to correct by adding some epsom salt to the grow. The plant also developed a k deficiency so I top dressed some langbeinite.
All the issues seem to have been fixed, but some of the old growth looks a bit rough.
Either way she’s looking much better now and starting pack on some weight!
Temps during the day are around 77 degrees and 70 degrees at night. RH is a consistent 50-55%. I would like to lower the temps a bit in the tent, but it’s hard in the winter with the heat running.
Any tips or comments are greatly appreciated!!!
