Grow Room The Cab in the Woods | Dutch Passion DP & WW

50 days from sprout

Over the last few days the WW has had odd leaf tips here and there go uniformly brown and curl up. I wonder what's up. Even though I haven't fed them in almost a week now, my best guess is slow-acting nutrients causing a burn. If I got a nickel every time I burn her with organics... I had put a few milliliters of hydrogen peroxide in the Blumat reservoir to get rid of the slime, which I did. Now I'm starting to think I got rid of something else too.

Oh well! I left out bloom nutes for WW this time around and only gave a strong dose of Bio-Grow because she's clearly short on nitrogen.

DP received an even stronger blast of both Grow and Bloom. I also upped epsom for both of them.

Colas are still getting fatter and frostier every day. WW is a bit behind, I think, but she'll get there.
Secondary budsites have also swelled on both of the plants, more so on the DP.

I was inspired to attempt making my own banana extract to improve the taste and smell (some have also reported increased trichome production) of the buds. The good people of AFN helped me get started on making FPE or Fermented Plant Extract. The first batch contains banana, pineapple, molasses and honey along with brown sugar and some milk to help with the fermentation.

I'm also trying to make some Lactobacillus serum which I'm equally excited about.

Haha I know right! It's a really great tool with an unbeatable price so I can totally see why.

Day 55 and we're looking alive and more or less well. WW's brown curling problem is still progressing so I'll hold off nutes until she's stable again. I'm trying to invigorate the soil with some Lactobacillus serum I just finished making to make up for my hydrogen genocide. DP has gotten greener since the last feeding which was a lethal dose of pretty much everything.

And here are some pics of what I have brewing so far...

We're getting close to the finish line! About time too because it seems WW isn't going to have leaves for much longer. She's gaining weight alright but something is still up. I think she'll continue on plain water, molasses and fruit extract until the end. It might be heat stress too even though DP isn't showing the same symptoms and the light is about as high as it can go. She hasn't really been well since the drought incident, so I dunno.

The smell has also increased dramatically in the past few days and I'd like to think it's thanks to my fruit extract but it might just be their maturity. :dunno:

All in all it's starting to look like a nice harvest and with any luck I should be pulling around 10 grams dry. I'll probably be giving them another week or two.

There's a scent of harvest already in the air... I wonder how much longer now. :smoke:

WW is still getting worse and every day a leaf or two drop off. DP is dismissing her leaves as well only not as quickly. I took a shot of WW's trichomes just now. It's not exactly a good picture but you can see the ratio adequately well.

The banana-pineapple extract must work to some extent because the smell is overwhelmingly strong compared to when I first gave it to them a week or so ago. Absolutely delicious.

Harvest date/yield guesstimations as well as any other feedback is welcome!
