Day 26 flowering

Ok so the 2 new caramelicious were also males. I yanked those out and I took 2 new female plants out of my back yard to replace them. ( They are both unknown bag seed plants)

The 1 caramelicious I have is about 2 feet tall and the 1st unknown bag seed plant is a little over 2 feet tall. The skunk is about 1 foot tall, but is by far budding the most. The bubblegum kush is about 14" tall and still growing, and is budding 2nd most. All the other plants are just now showing pistols and white hairs. ( Maybe they are budding slower because i germinated all them from seed, where as the skunk and kush were clones when i got them?)

Day 30 flowering

First off i wanna clear something up. Only 2 plants are actually in day 30 of flowering.(Skunk and Bubbglegum). The other plants are 1 and 2 weeks behind, because theese are the newer plants i put in after i found the males.

Also, i did some upgrading a couple days ago. I moved up to a digital 600watt air cooled system. I have an air cooled hood and a 430cfm exhaust fan cooling the light. I have 6'' ducting on the hood. The open end of the duct is on the floor in the middle, kinda snaked between the flower pots.
This sucks cold air from underneath the door to help cool the grow room and aslo sucks air off the floor to cool the light itself. This all gets sucked up and vented straight into the attic. This actually works pretty good. Average temps with lights on, 83 give or take.

You asked for my advice. I'm going to tell what you're doing wrong so don't get pissed if you hear something you don't want to hear.

Towels and peat pucks = bad move. Germinate directly in soil in a pot at least 6" tall.


No domes, 20/4 for the photoperiod.

Water well (no need to meaure) when the plants need it. Those pots are too big and will not support a healthy root system.

So what's the NPK values?

Quote:

Basically use 1/4 strength nutes the first week, 1/2 strength the 2nd week, then full strength the 3rd week.

And what if the plant doesn't need full strength or needs more salts? You apply plant food according to plant needs, not some regiment someone gave you. He is not the master of your garden and does not have a clue.


Then go to a transition week, where u add a little of the bloom and uncle jon's blend, and reduce the grow solution.

Plants are dynamic. If you don't understand nutrients and what makes a plant tick, those charts are useless. They are a crutch to the noob, an aide to the vendor to increase sales and dependency.

I doubt it the plants were acclimated to such light unless the CFL's were right on them. If they start turning yellow, you've got problems.

Good luck,
UB

Thanks for the advice, thats the most anybody has responded! ha ha.

The NPK values are:

Grow = 2-1-6
Micro = 6-0-0
Bloom = 0-6-5
uncle jons blend = 0-0-2
plant amp =1% Ca

So for veg they are basically seeing a 4-.5-3. Kinda light but if it sustains growth, you do what you have to do.

Thanks for the advice man. What do u think about the flowering cycle? Should i increase the nutes a little too?

Learn to read your plants, not charts.

Well, I hope I don't sound too dumb, but how exactly do I read my plants?all I know is when the leaves start to droop, they need water. But I'm not sure about what nutes to add more of, or use less of. For example, if the leaves are curling like taco shells, it could be too much calcium or whatever, so use less calcium in my nute mixture. This is what I have a hard time understanding. I've looked on all blogs here but they all just say the same thing, learn to read what your plants need, or keep researching this site. If it's too hard to explain, it's cool I understand. But I really do appreciate the comments u have left so far. Thanks again.
