All is harvested. I ended up with right at 20 ounces. I had an issue with my humidifier so they dried in 7 days…I seem to have the most success letting them dry for around 10-12 but I’m sure they will be fine. The NL#5 are under the LED and I’m gonna pop some Real Sour D x C99 I generously received from someone that I don’t want to call out unless they want to. Thanks again! Excited to run these!

So I messed up cracking the SD x C99 seeds. I had three pop, break soil and die. 100% my bad. So, I’m gonna shift gears and see if I can do better with some Lemon Sherbet from PhenoFinder Seeds.

Gonna put the NL#5 into flower soon. I thinned them out a bit over the weekend. I’ll let them recover for a few more days and then flip.

So I’ve heard you have to watch out for calcium and magnesium deficiencies when under leds. I didn’t snap a picture, but you can see it in the pictures above. Looks like a mag deficiency to me. I gave them all some dolomite and watered it in earlier today. It seemed to progress very quickly on me. I saw it coming and should have hopped on it sooner. Crossing my fingers
I might be wrong..but a shower or two with some epsom salts (magnesium) wouldnt hurt. Calcium deficiency should look like rust spots on the leaf.
I'd spray till they look lush green again and then up the magnesium a little bit
Just stole a picture of someone's grow and he's got calcium Def

Thanks Stiff! I believe you are correct. I’ve been giving them epsom salts in a foliar spray the past 1-1.5 weeks and it has made a world of difference. I also defoliated when I put them into flower on Dec 22nd. Looking much better!

Here is how they looked back in mid-December.

Yeah, pretty certain that was the cause. Epsom salt foliar sprays and some dolomite worked into the soil for the win!
So, winter is kicking our ass right now in KC! I mean frostbite kinda cold! -35 *F windchills. Could have gone to the Chiefs/Dolphins game free today but no freaking way! Gonna stay home and make some bubble hash with my honey using the rest of the Pineapple Express I have.
With this cold, it has gotten so dry in the grow room. I have finally broken down and have a humidifier on the way. I grabbed a Venta LW15. This will be plenty for the smaller room I have. Pricey but I have no doubt I will reap the benefit quickly with a much healthier crop. My VPD has been off since I started growing in this house. Always too dry. I have done a little better in the summer with our Midwest humidity but still, this thing should dial it in real nice!

What a difference a few days makes. I noticed what looks to me like a calcium deficiency a number of days ago. I had the dolomite lime worked into the top layer of soil from when I felt I had a Mg deficiency. I have been adding some GH Cali-Magic to my feed as well as doing some foliar sprays daily. It seems to only be getting worse. I first figured given I’ve had both Mg and Ca deficiencies this round, maybe I had a pH issue. I tested the soil yesterday and it came out right at 6.5. I’m really not sure what to do at this point. Could I be wrong on Ca and it’s something else? I’ve been feeding the Flora series pretty heavy so it’s hard to believe they aren’t getting what they need. I’ll take any thoughts you might have.

Been a bit, just got busy and wasn’t loving how the NL#5 finished up. I’m sure Captain has some good genes in his stock but I wasn’t impressed with my run. I see some folks loving his stuff so maybe this run was my error. I had some kind of lockout or deficiency or excess that I don’t feel I really took care of sufficiently. Very leafy strain as well which is a negative in my book. Healthy feeding, soil pH on point, maybe a touch dry but a pretty solid environment. I probably won’t run his stuff again.
So the NL is hanging in the veg tent and I moved the Lemon Sherbet under the flower lights. Day 9 defoliation went well. I like how these look so far! Healthy with a nice structure and not too leafy.

The NL#5 is curing and smoking better every day. Really nice head stash and I also have quite a few jars of small buds/trim to either make edibles or kief with.
The Lemon Sherbet from Phenofinder Seeds are looking great at 30 days 12/12. Using Athena nutrients for the first time and expecting some good things.

The Lemon Sherbet finished up real nice and I got somewhere around 1.2 lbs off the 4 plants. Nice, dense buds that pack a punch. I would definitely run this gear again!

On deck are Sour Diesel from Humboldt Seed Company, Punch & Cookies from Mamiko Seeds and Purple Sunset Rbx from Ethos. 8 out of nine seeds are above ground with one of the Punch & Cookies being difficult.

Looks like I’m gonna end up with 2 Sour Diesels, 2 Punch & Cookies and 3 Purple Sunset Rbx.

Transplanted into 3 gallon fabric pots and topped 3 out of the 7 this morning. Gave them a drink with some Recharge. So far so good. I’m gonna continue with Athena nutrients for this run.
