Locrian99s 2nd grow

[Locrian99]

I would say right around 50%

Looks like harvest time is quickly approaching. As of right now I’m planning on harvesting the aurora indicas Friday the 27th. Will be day 60 of 12/12. The fade is for sure starting. Tomorrow night I will scope them and for sure figure out the timeline. Right now looks like dark period starts Wednesday harvest Friday final watering on Sunday. The thing with the Wonder Woman isn’t looking better hoping it stops with the cal mag I gave it last night run off cans out 6.1 though so wondering if the ph is causeing it I wouldn’t think .1 would be a deal breaker but... babies are looking good.

you made it tada lol so I want to throw this out there when I do a lockout flush I start with a flushing agent then go to strait water, when the ph and ppm are in range I give one more watering with 30 ml of cal/mag to resupply the coco with it , I mix in 5 gallon buckets

 

[Campesino]

0.1 should not be a deal-breaker - pH must be buffering through the Cal zone - so I'd look for other explanations.
Happy Harvest time!

I raised my ph to 7 to make sure it wasn't buffering out. How much calmag did you use with the plain water? I ended up using 5ml instead of 2.5 on all my nute feedings now since I've ran into mag problems on my last 2 grows.

 

[Locrian99]

I gave the 5ml/gallon.
oldjarhead100 what I did was a gallon with a flushing agent then a gallon of plain water. My goal was just to rinse out some of what I’m sure was building up in there. Regretting this decision now lol. I didn’t want to do a true flush just because of humidity already fighting it with all the damn rain we’ve been getting. Looks like the weather is turning though so hopefully these last couple weeks it’ll be much better.

Thanks for the information, I need to start planning on when I should start the flower. It looks like I'll go for 24-30" veg height after mainling, if it doesn't stretch much.

At 2 months from seed mine were only about 14” tall with a manifold. But I trained them pretty flat.

On page 4 there’s a pic of the two AIs on 2/25 that is when I flipped them. The tomato cages you can see in the pics are 14” from the soil. The seeds were put into rooters on Christmas night so that is about 2 months from seed.

Got the scope out here is a few of GSC2. I think she's mostly cloudy I still see a few clear no real amber showing on the buds yet, lots of the sugar leaves. Quite possible she will be going under the scissors Next Friday as well. She needs to bulk up though, bud size is rather disappointing.

 

[Locrian99]

And here is some from Aurora Indica #2. I'm not sure why the very top is that dark color under the scope, anyone? It doesn't look that way under regular light without the scope Anyways I think my plan of dark period starting next Wednesday with a Friday Harvest seems about right.

 

[Chefbjy]

That is kind of odd.

 

[Campesino]

Yeah, I don't like it
Hope it isn't a bad symptom

 

[oldjarhead100]

maybe light refraction?

 

[Locrian99]

Maybe ojh

Here’s the top of the same colo just up close with an iPhone 7+ camera.

 

[Campesino]

Nothing looks wrong there!
I guess I wouldn't sweat it - probably would keep looking at it. Wait... Are they going dark/already in the dark?

It's the aurora borealis... to be more specific "black auroras"...

Next Wednesday I was planning on it

 

[Locrian99]

That might get bumped up to Monday with a Wednesday harvest. Depending on how they turn amber.
