malawi reg /both stretching more than the rest did but thats expected/
since there was no runoff after repotting into just phed coco there will be runoff next watering.
will keep ph between 6.1-6.2 and 400 ppm for next week unless c99 and sdg will show yellow green in center of leaves..using 1 mix for everything otherwise would go to 600 but that would be too much for younger ones so 400 it is for now.
will be upping ppms to 550
little bit more micro and grow and will continue seaweeds / not a one drop of bloom for next 10-12 days
ph 6.1-6.2 for now.
got no calmag last run durban showed calmag or even manganese def shortly after first flowers but that was due to low ph @5.7 looks like keeping it around 6.1 works better.
I would say both SDG and cindy got that yellowing going on..cindy more than SDG
btw its first time with everything exept durban this round.
it always surprises me how fast this "veg under 12" progress and I always forget to up ppms during that period its super fast like 1 week time..
durban showed preflowers very early maybe around day 15 from seed and now both cindy and SDG are throwing first pistils..
btw dunno how those younger ones respond to 550ppms since everything is being watered from 1 nute mix / one bottle feeds em all style.
it would be better to have separate mix for very young and the rest but nope too lazy for that
after looking again at cindy decided to LST her in her sleep
shes getting too big..this should tame her for now.
still grow nutes for everything @6.1 and 550ppms.
its hot as hell 35C in box but thats good coz saw some little flies like 1 or two inside and they should burn in that heat
maybe they are no harm but prefer no insects inside exept springtails but those are prob. all ded
gonna top the bigger malawi that is prob male coz its getting too big.
second smaller one is female probably..this way she gets more light
but there is no hurry since its over 10weeks flowering and will be finishing in summer round.
I am just curious if its better than durban probably its more potent for sure.
hm will be starting another durban seed soon since will probably have to harvest this durban very soon
2nd one will be repotted into current durbans pot with same coco so gotta be easy on nutes.
dunno if I should switch to flower nutes since this
durban will go down in a month tops.
probably I should..
so change of plans right
I know its a shame but will be needing some medicine since jar from last round is getting dangerously low hate to see that but there is no surprise with 1g/day consumption it was 47g dry will probably get like 20g tops witch chopping too early but 2nd durban will be done properly no topping in flower etc. hopefully lol.
I really need 2nd box..
have a very high/stoned rest of the day everyone
peace
e: will harvest just few colas instead of everything coz there is significant diference starting to show at week 5-6 hopefully SDG and ww should be getting there at that time too.
box
lsted cindy at left durban right and topped malawi male at top with some calmagish looking spot /this micro pot with very little coco is shared by both malawis and get wet dry cycles so no surprise other one is fine no pic sorry./
starting to add bloom in very little amounts 0.5 ml into 1.5l
still waiting for some stretch but even when there is no stretch those buds will stretch
topping and lst probably slowed her a bit..
btw SDG roots were like two feet long/30cm the other day cutted them but there are others again
those roots are pulled by little runoff water that is left in the bottom runoff tray..
this should help to fill the pot with roots quickly after repotting..gotta try that sometime..
same effect to roots as dwc probably.
roots gravity
some little stretching going on with durbans one shoot
ww
still untopped
gonna start one more durban seed today.. the idea is to have one plant ready when current one gets harvested very very early.. hoping for same fast hard hitting pheno..
but it doesnt matter that much both phenos are good
Topped ww and lsted c99 a bit more shes becoming a little bush, I do like that very much!
Strong side branches means big tops..
Durban nr2 popped and went into box shes under dome
It is hot in there 35C and very dry too.
e: both malawis got lsted a bit still no signs of sex..
but I do expect the bigger one male and the other one female
its 10-13 weekish strain..
but this is just for sample testing will run it properly if I like it sometime..
today found some springtails swimming in the runoff from durban`s pot.
didn't expected to see them after 2y in sealed almost dry coco bag..
but im not running organics so they probably doesnt matter that much but its good to know if there is still very little moisture in bag they will! survive..
I poured the runoff into some indoor flower pot instead of dumping it so they will live in there too now
WW got topped shes getting big /she was a dwarf little plant but placing her pot under direct lights did all the difference../no surprises here really/.
temps are high hitting 37-38C.
watering everything once/day with little runoff /few ml so not much but still better than no runoff right/.
I am keeping bloom nutes to 1.5ml/1.5l
gotta recalibrate ppm pen got some wild swings guess its time to do it again
pics soon..
