Starting to see nitrogen toxicity in the Solomatic, I'm watering with only PH water since 1 week now

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-21 The 2 sisters are doing great, Nr2 is a bit after Nr1 . Some new pics. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-23. Transplanted from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. 4 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New video of the girls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water. I hope they like it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. New pics and the girls liked the water and nutrients yesterday. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. Video of the girls this morning. Kl 16.00. Did some defoliation on the girls. Videos added. KL. 23.00. New video.

Les pompoms commencent a se former belle structure de cette plante. Boit énormément. Les engrais se mettre en marche et cela fait une énorme différence.

Easy trim✂️ The buds are rock solid🤩 The smell citrus & earthy 🍋 See you in 2025 for the smoke report Take care

3 weeks from germination, they look green and strong full of vitality, even with the heat it is doing ... I just started with Biovega at 1ml per liter (half dose), I have chosen the largest specimens, you can see the difference between varieties, with respect to size. The most branched is already seen to be the Sugar Candy and the Sugar Black rose, the distance between branches is incredible. Like all in their own way.😉

Week 10 Not so bad. I switched the light to flowering mode: 12h/24 end of week 9, just after the plants recovered from the stress period caused probably by a nutrient excess: lot of burned leaves. Green Punch was seriously injured, already weakened by Aphids. Treatment: sprayed Fertiliigène (Rapesseed oil) to eradicate this pest. Did it when lights off— 12h in darkness is better. Defoliation, cutting some low branches. Want to be sure that the grow tent and the room will be clean to start the seeding of the next session in 10 days. Light Ts 1000 x 2 — 85% Watering: 2 weeks without nutrients except Cal/Mag and Enzymes yesterday. AK47 and Bubble Gum are the most developed and healthy 👌with a regular canopy Sour Glue is stretching since few days, developing lot of blooming sites 👍 Royal Gorilla look still stressed 🤞 CaliFunk is still short, solid and bushy, look vigorous 🤔 Green Punch, always the last: injured and attacked by pest, recovering slowly but surely 👎

Starting the sixth week of my ladies. Cleaning the bottom and removing the « suckers » (future popcorn buds at the basis) to get more energy to the top !

Almost. I will give her a few more days to potentially fill out more. Real good production top to bottom, fairly even in maturity timing. Still very sweet, skittles smell. Really hoping I enjoy this strain, never been a haze fan. The purple definitely good be my fault, been some colder days and the tent is in a warmer weather position in the lung room. Resetting the tent after her, cleaning, new pots, new soil, and new opportunities to improve.

It was finally time to harvest her, what good times we had with her. Amazed with how beautiful this plant is, how easy to manage and train and how rewarding Orange Hill Special is. So we said our thanks and goodbye, thanked her for all the joy she gave while growing her. I realize more and more how I love growing them even more than the end-product. It takes my mind of all going on for a while, in my miniature jungle world in the attic. Im sure all of you just sometimes sit there and watch them, in wonder, dreaming away with a good buzz on, watching them wave in the wind of the fans. So with a heavy hart I apologize, play them their last music, sit with them and feel them and smell them, watch the glistening of the cristals. In the end we had 209 gram dried Orange Hill Special, I will know the total of the grow, in a few days, since the final big whopper still has to dry: my XtraKush, be sure to check the harvest of that one *in couple of days) and see a one-dollar seed outperform two 10 dollar seeds. I probably go over 500 grams for the total grow, which would be 1.6 grams per watt. Big success! Consider an SP-3000 for your next light, you won't be disappointed! Check www.mars-hydro.com for the latest discounts! Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting us try out your light, it made this successful grow possible! Greetings and all the best! Thank you to our friends here, our followers and the whole Growing Diaries community for just being there. Big Hug, Sunshine and BioBuds

Really happy with how things are looking, despite expecting slightly larger buds. I think next time, I'll defoliate and lollipop a bit more to focus the plants energy on the main tops. It stinks like mint, skunk, and sweet. Really nice trichome coverage, lots of dank buds in the mix here. Even the lowers that aren't getting as much light are looking dank. I started the week out around 500ppm and steadily dropped to below 400ppm. The ppms kept creeping up every time I'd drop them...so I kept dropping them to see where it would stabilize. I ended the week at 381ppm. In preparations for harvest, I'll plan to steadily reduce the ppm to about 200ppm, rather than doing a flush with RO. I'm working with really great starting water between 50-80ppm, which absolutely requires CalMag at .5 to .75 tsp/g.

------GENERAL COMMENT------ Here e go, last week for the final flush. Piece of cake! 👋 Went in with the overdrive. I noticed some buildup in the runoff as the EC is testing high, little overfeed so I will water with, PH water + Recharge, might cut the Sensi and go with big bloom in this last feed week. Feeding every other day, gave a shoot in constant feeding, alternating the Base+Recharge+PK and the VeloKelp + Natures Candy in the other. Did not need more CalMag. No deficiencies, or spotting, they are growing nicely. ------GG.AK47 COMMENT------ The AK is adding height, buds are bulking and on both are very dense!

Another week of things going well! I dialed in my automated watering system by sealing the port where the 1/2in tube connects with the output outlet with an FDA approved silicone gel. Wanted to get the FDA sealant since anything else would leak chemicals into the watering reservoir. Tested and no leaks detected! I also found out that there are these sweet quick connectors you can get from Amazon. The nice thing about this is that it makes my watering system modular. I can disconnect the tube feeding into the tent by pushing the quick connect tab and addressing the bucket without dealing with tedious connects and disconnects. All I need to do when I’m ready to reconnect the bucket, I just push the line from the bucket into the quick connector. Additionally, I started using .25 ml (25%) of compost tea along with .25ml (25%) of silica. I think I will need to up the dose next week to 50% strength for both. I will do a transfer to the 1 gal pot in 2 weeks!

all my ladys are fed with organic products, earthworm humus and red bird guano. I am waiting this flowers...

Day 57. Girls okeish except damaged leaves by thrips and by my sprays with most probably too much neem oil in it. Lady bugs all over plants, so i think i should beat problem easy till first heavy flowering training session... By book its 50 bugs vs one LadyBug a day, i imagine that they will start to starve like tomorrow latest ;))) Day 62. Yesterday got more help to fight thrips and ordered new variety of natural predators to keep on ... With such dense canopy fight is very hard, in smaller tent all is sorted, in this one i still see damaged leaves and sometimes thrips still .... Anyway, even with those issues they are really nice girls, will do heavy training on Tuesday or Wednesday ... Idea is to do hard defoliation and then introduce new army of predators, i will loose some during training 4 sure... I still see lady bugs and and i released larvae already, will give them 4 more days to get hungry ;))) Happy Growing !!!

SETUP: -MIGRO 100 -Grow space 60X60X160 (Mammoth PRO 60). -Grow medium is Gold Label Special Mix Gold edition Premium, Airpot (10l). _____________________________ 14th September - Day 22 (Day 24 "Beer Cup") - I have given them booth some 💧same here... Just been going on feeling now by checking the weight on the pot before and after watering. Today I'm giving them some nutes for the first time. Because the smaller pot is around 20% of the size as the bigger one. I'm going to try to split 1L (100ml) of water with nutes like this: Final pot got 800ml water and "Beer Cup" got 200ml of water. (Both got 1ml Sensi Bloom A & 1ml Sensi Bloom B / L) _____________________________ 16th September - Day 24 (Day 26 "Beer Cup") - I have given them booth some 💧 Final pot got 600ml water and "Beer Cup" got 300ml of water. (Both got 1ml Sensi Bloom A & 1ml Sensi Bloom B / L) _____________________________ 19th September - Day 27 (Day 29 "Beer Cup") - I have given them booth some 💧 Final pot got 600ml water and "Beer Cup" got 300ml of water. (Both got 1ml Sensi Bloom A & 1ml Sensi Bloom B / L) _____________________________ 20th September - Day 28 (Day 30 "Beer Cup") - Increased the LED from 3/5 of strength to 4/5 of strength.

03/15 - Coming into week 2 Veg no issues to report - Both are growing accordingly as expected - running high temps high humidity - Nute feeds will increase as they grow out - One will be ran as a stand alone mother and the other a clone mother. 03/18 - Both ladies are rocking accordingly - P2 is about an inch shorter then P1 but still rocking nonetheless - Both will continue in the nursery tent through week 6 veg when they are transplanted into 5 gallon pots for phase 3 of this grow😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Hi Growmies,this was the last week of nutes she’s getting. Feels like I completely misjudged how far she is along, as it seems like she has started the ripening process. Ph and ec was in line the whole time, once the leaves started fading i thought that I have a lock out or sth, so I fed canna flush for a day and continued with a fresh reservoir as per my regular feeding schedule, To no avail, as she continues to fade, even after. Not a Biggy, as the trichomes are definitely all far enough along to harvest her after the next week of flushing. Thanks for stepping by and until next week :)

Hi all! now the moment has come when the buds began to grow in width! get fat and become covered with trichomes. the smell is magnificent, sweet fruity. the plant eats a lot. 5 liters of fertilizer per day. no wonder she started to get fat!)))
