My perpetual grow journal

[RosettaStoned]

A few pictures of my PE SoG in flush. Getting close I think...

they got a little burned, the RH was around 20% halfway through and they took in way more than expected.
slow medium fast, I put a pause in on the day I had to move everything for the flood. These girls finally backed off the feeding frenzy.

Like Campesino It looked like it was breathing I liked the slower one

[Campesino]

Well they should be almost done stretching anyways at 26 days.
I look forward to seeing this progress through flowering!

I'll most likely just dim the lights and leave the frame where it is. I turned the lower section knobs up last night but it looks like they are getting bleached in the center. Back down they go or a little of both, frame up-lights down

Flower cycle is 26 days from 12/12 flip, but it starts on day 9

[Campesino]

Like one big breathing organism!
You are getting great pictures, but I wonder if having the camera on the lights is going to have the same effect since the lights move up with the plants.
In any event, it takes a couple of cycles through to get oriented, but then I can see a lot about how your plants are growing... Back right seems to be taking off!
How many days is this?

Here's my time lapse with my GoPro hung off the frame of my lights. Towards the end you can see where they get all messy because I had to take out the plastic from under them and clean up the water. Thanks for the idea Campesino 👍

Slow and fast, 18 pictures, starts the second week on flower

[RosettaStoned]

Thanks king! Yes I hope, not sure what to expect from these. These are the first two monster cropped branches from my first grow. That was a few months ago. I think I held them back with the weak soil mix because they have really taken off since the start off the root organics nutes.

Monster bush gonna take over your tent soon! Looking fresh I like what you're doing

[RosettaStoned]

I want to go three weeks on these or they'll be too big.

start the clock on Veg. do you only have plant in veg for a certain lenth of time?

[RosettaStoned]

Changed out the SoG monster cropped PE reservoirs tonight. They are just now starting to shoot out three finger leaves. I want to start the veg clock but am waiting to see more potential out of a few of them. Got their first dose of macro in the mix but real low 850 EC (minus 450 tap water), so only 200 ppm between the additives and nutes, . Going to see how it goes and maybe add more. Going to have to address the one seed pineapple Express x white widow. It's going out grow the clones very soon, I figured I would try topping it and some heavy training to slow it down some. There's two chili peppers hanging out in there with them, a bhut jolokia and Carolina reaper.

The soil girls are looking better! A little tip burn but doing good and have grown past the second ring on the cage. After the last post about these I brewed some alfalfa meal and kelp meal tea. 2 tbsp each and 24 oz of water, let sit for 24 hours and strain. Added water to the strained liquid to make a gallon. Watered them with half of that and some tap. Waited a day, then watered with the nute solution I had been using, minus 5 ml Buddha grow, plus 15 roots organic HPK. I had taken the soaked kelp/alfalfa meals and soaked them again in 32 oz of water over night and made a foliar spray. I top dressed with earthworm castings and the left over soaked meals and worked it into the top layer of soil. Then watered with the rest of the kelp/alfalfa tea. I removed the worst looking leaves which were well down the branches by now. They need a good hair cut...

that does make since Roseta lol was wondering why It was so dusty down there , I keep a screen /filter in the intake line so the rooms are not to bad , I do love the stone foundation though and it does feel like a cave down there

[RosettaStoned]

These are coming along, real short and wide Pineapple Express x white widow. They are on the same schedule as my starkiller grow. I'm hoping they turn out better than the last PE cross I did. Got their first dose of real nutes tonight. 1200 EC, pH 5.75, 68/74 temps, 60/70 RH. Room is stable again....


The flowers on the big grow are looking nice and really filling out. I keep waiting for tip burn or some kind of toxicity, but they are happy. About 12" away from the lights altough some are closer and show signs of light burn, so I dialed the lights down on that side a little and turned the lower ones up a touch. Last change I held back on the nutes again but close to breaking 2000 EC/ 1000 ppm. This Friday is 4 weeks completed. I'll be passed 2000 easily...they have slowed down on the water intake.

Yea asbestos is a little freaky. I tore out a bunch of large and plaster upstairs with no protection a couple years ago. Didn’t know any better oops
