I’m super excited to be a member and to being growing Biscotti cookies and I’m at week 7. I’m on my first grow using a grow box that I’ve built. It’s 2x3x4 with a return fan, 2 small fans and 275 watts of led lighting at 12/12, My ph balance is 6.8 and I’m feeding every 2 days I was on a 1-3-1 Npk until last week which was week 6, I scaled down slightly since week 8 is approaching and I will be flushing for week 8 and 9. I have two questions, this is my very first grow so I’m not sure if my plants are where they should be right now. So I need some help ladies and gents!
This is the pic of both plants. My smaller plant is the same age as the other but is super small. Leaving them in the same pot wasn’t the best of ideas. They will be at week 8 of flowering stage on Monday August 26th

If that's all the nutes you have it amazing they look as good as they do.

Pot needs a lot more K in late flowering so the balance is way off.

Kind of late to fix things now but I'd get some better food for them the next crop. I'm using Mega Crop this round and liking it but I'm also adding Big Bud, Epsom salts and a few other things.

I found a great spot to download FREE POT BOOKS . I downloaded a grow bible first and got lots more. Books look great and complete like the real ones I have here. No web site but just a page of links. Just right click on what you want and then "Save Link As" to download so they don't open first as many are 50+ megs. They got lots. Enjoy.

:peace:

Thank you for the reply!!!
I was only using 1-3-1 during flowering stage, however, I added epsom salt until week 6 started and I’m using Rhizotonic. Sorry, I forgot those 2 and I have worm casting blended in organic soil and coco coir. The buds are actually growing daily now.
Do you think my plants are much smaller than they should be ?

There looking good I think you should had taken your time since it’s your first grow and kept them in veg a bit longer they look frosty that means good water retention not bad for your first grow next run try some different nutrients since your at week 8 already and the name of the game is patients in this game you can’t rush I like to feed only compost teas to my girls true veg and flowering at week 8 you could feed them Big up powder 0-33-23 by humboldt and ride them to week 10 you might get that extra boost on those biscotti I just ran them like 3 months ago they went 10 weeks cheers and happy growing

Thank you for the info, I definitely was going to go 9 weeks on it. I can’t find any info on growing biscotti. I kept them vegetation for 12 weeks because I gave too much nutrients in the 3rd veg week and they were looking bad so I changed pots and put them in a better soil and kept veg stage as long as I could.

Can I use the Humboldt now ?
Or will it be too risky to jump the nutrients that high ?

Well do you know what your ppm is it look like they had a lot of Nitrogen there green as hell I like to only used N in to the first 2 weeks of flowering then I just used a low dose of N because you still need it in flowering but I used more P and K I got so much microbes in my soil it’s not even funny but believe I just had to flush my girls even do I feed them compost tea my ppm were high so pose to be around 700 to 900 I was at 1400 I believe and it was to high so my girls were lock out of nutrients I flush them with a mild nutrients with a ph of 6.5 or 6.8 with a ppm of 800 and I used jacks 10,30,20 with cal mag in a 5 galón and I put each plant on a small bucket collect The run of nutrients that you have coming out your pots make shore your ppm ain’t that high you should be golden to used humboldt big up powder 0-33-23 it’s made to used in the first week of flowering and the last two weeks of flowering to get that extra jump that your looking for you can go easy on it instead of using 1/2 tsp for a gallon used 1/4 you can go wrong by using less sorry about the late respond I just went true heart surgery so I’m carry this big ass heart monitor looking like the tin man any ways happy growing I’m new to the site as well as you are all I do is read and read and get some knowledge and that’s half the battle cheers now let me go open a box of goodies that I just order OG bloom seabirds and bat guano 0-9-0 by vitals earth cheers and happy growing.

Considering how long you vegged they're a tad smaller than they could have been I think.

You're growing in a pretty small box so if I were you I would get into training early to get a wide, flat canopy to maximize your yields.

Better nutes will help as well. There's so many to chose from that I can't begin to advise you about that other than I'm really liking the Greenleaf Mega Crop nutes. If you had to use just one nutrient mix it's got you covered. Can get it in in Canada now but it started in the US. I've heard they make a flowering version now so I'd like to get some of that tho I have AN 3-part nutes I can use to fill in any gaps I perceive.

A dose of Epsom wouldn't hurt. It supplies some Mg and S and it's the S that helps resin glands grow. If you have anything high in K a bit of that wouldn't hurt and can help fatten up the buds. No or very little N tho as it would stunt bud growth at this stage.

A half dose shouldn't hurt.

How much epsom per gallon ?
Click to expand...
1 to 2 table spoon to a galón no ph needed a bit of warm water just to melt the Epson salt the fresh cold water don’t forget not to get regular Epson salt from the pharmacy that we used to soak our body’s in it that one contained perfumes and other junk you will destroyed your plant but Epson salt for plants I used Pennington that will correct yellow of the leaves and correct magnesium and or sulfur deficiencies it’s for laws,flowers and plants ,trees.happy farming and cheers

I get my Epsom salts from the pharmacy, It's bath salts you don't want to get but their 4Kg jugs of Epsom salts are the real deal. No additives. A half Kg should last for a decade or so but I like a nice hot soak with 2 cups of them about once a week for my arthritis.

A Tbsp/gal once every few waterings is lots if you're not having a deficiency.

Actually a tsp/gal should be plenty for general use.
