Grow Room 2.5 sf auto grow adventure

[Tejasdirt]

Welp.
Here are a couple pics
Please note in my madness I have removed 75% of the crispy parts of the leaves.
These are 8 weeks. Don't seem to be filling in.
There is also the thought that I have been comparing autos growth to photos growth????
We will see.....

What a mess.....
Went away for the holiday weekend and returned to both the plants upper leaves all pale green and 1/2 crispy
Ppm
250- mega Crop
50- Bud Explosion
R/o water
78 average temp
40% humidity
Gotta say this grow kinda sucks
Worst Hempy grow I've ever did
So will finish out:
Drop bud explosion
Up mega to 300 ppms

I'm thinking ( make that hopeing) that it's part freebie seeds used, part vermiculite in Hempy, and part not ever growing autos before

Already planning next grow when this one struggles to its end......
Using sweet seeds.
And ordering mephisto genetics this afternoon to make genetics a non issue.
So dam disappointing.

But who knows??? May turn out ok
We will see
Weeee wiiiiillll sssssseeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..........

That sucks, man! But hey, they are not dead, might be able to salvage something! Hope everything turns out well!

Yeah
From lush grow of first pics in thread to this.....
Yuck
Only things I lean on is it's my first auto grow and first grow with MegaCrop
At week 8The rest of the watering will just be mega crop @ 350 ish ppm
Some is allways better than none

Ok ok
I'm kinda embarrassed n mad so didn't take any
Will take some when sun comes on
Ph was 5.9

Experienced growers still have problems in the garden my dude, nothing to be embarrassed about. Good luck man, I hope the infirmary helps get it figured out!

I'm sure they will
I'm sure they will pinpoint it,
But till then
I'm growing in a Hempy with peralite and megacroP
I did a 1 gallon flush each plant
Then watered in 341 ppm megacrop and no bud explosion
I think I see fresh green growth on top but will wait a couple days to verify

Day 65 from germination
Every watering from now on gets 4-4.5 grams mega crop
That's about 723ppms
New growth has started up
Kinda filling out
Will do 4- 4.5 Grams till harvest
Fingered out my mistakes
All will be exposed come harvest
They look better even though they don't

Peace

I am sorry to read about the plants. I have to say without all the mistakes that I made and will make in the future, I am always learning. That is kinda the side adventure in my little journey when growing. I hope that you continue to post and finish this one out so that we can all see thru with you.Happy Growing

Hey yall
Welp
This one is in the books.
Both plants have been harvested with plant 2 in the low n slow dry refrigerated and plant 1 doing a 24 hour hang then into paper bags to dry out.
I must say got more than I expected and took longer than expected (11.5 weeks)
Even at 11.5 weeks plant1 had white hairs and probly had 2 more weeks to go.
My mistake slowed it down but as they say
"Autos wait for no man"
And had a 3 week old auto that had to be transplanted in its place.
So it was chopped.
The biggest mistake was Mega Crop.
I tried to use mega first time with ppms.
Nope
First WEIGHT out your mega crop (4-6 grams)
When you get your weights dialed in THEN use your ppm / ec meter to find out what ppm/ec it is and grow from there.
Once I did this things kinda smoothed out.
Pot size I've never had such dry medium in a Hempy at harvest as these.
For my style Hempy growing these were way too small and this compounded the problems
Since this was my first auto run after years of photos, I didn't take into account that the light cycle is upped from 12/12 to 19/5. More light means more moisture being needed and used and I didn't account for that.
Will update final totals
And allready started run number2
