Thanks Red, will give quarter strength feed with water at ph 7 on the next watering don't want to go over 7, will also give Magne/cal and some small amount of molasses
New Grower First Auto Grow, 2 x White Widow
- Thread starter Broadsword
- Start date
A wee update here ,Have given both new water at Ph 6.9 , they both had a full wet down .
The run off from these measured at 5.7
WW1 is enetring her 7th week as of tomorrow an is showing wee flowers. She s tryin but only 21cm tall.
I had said in an earlier post that had FIMMED, as it turned out I topped so apologeis for ay unintended misinformation.
I gave 1 ml of Magne /cal per litre nd a teaspoonfull of molasses to 5 litres between both plants.
I need t wait now and see what happens with the higher ph water. Photo to come, I hope she finishes off ok.
Her 1 week younger sister is a Giant by comparison at 4 cm tall and 33 days old today,her leaves as shown have become broken and small holes appearing in parts also one showing curling of leaves, downwards.
The same watering given as WW1,don't know what will be the result here either.
Now back in their permanent home with more space, room temp is 70.4f and rh is 44%.
I have passive airflow and carbon filter extraction along with 6 inch internal clip fan.
I have just looked in and noticed WW1 has the claw effect showng didn't notice when watered it.
Need to d pic and get coffee, try chill out about what is going on in my soil?
Low ph was considered with a little help from Red as above.
I don't know the NPK ratio of my soil mix, it aint on the bag I got, but I also have coco in and the pearlite. its a mix of 3 parts comp to 1 part coco and pearlite, I have not put any MG plant food since Sunday.
I wanted to put in an intake fan from computer, (got one given to me, new one as well!) but don't know how to power it. I not techy!!!!
Some pics

well if your run off is 5.7 and it went in at 6.9 the equation says your soil PH is actually 4.4, so i would start watering a lot higher than 6.9, to be honest its a guessing game without a soil ph meter, some might suggest another flush i personally wouldnt and would start feeding with high ph feeds, they both look actually very healthy apart from the first ones size,( which makes you wonder how accurate your ph reading are?) when i had really low ph they crumbled, and still are not right two weeks later

Too late to worry about what your soil was, but i wouldn't stop feeding them' they will be missing out on things as it is due to the low ph

Ok, you will need a 12volt phone charger or adapter , that has a amps rating equal too or above the fans you are going to add, this will be displayed on charger and the fans next to the voltage, its a matter of stripping the wires connecting and taping up, though as with all things electrical there is an inherent risk.

Thanks again for the computer fan info Hairy, Its working but not installed yet, still finishing off the new grow box! Done it all myself except cutting the boards to size, its pretty solid but needs to be sealed of better. Im decorating it just now and thinking about a home made filter for the air intake fan so I don't suck dust in. Was gonna stretch a nylon stocking over the ducting, should work ok.
Yeah Im using Ionic Boost for the wee one now and the big one will get it on its next watering,
Im bored so a couple of pics of progress with WW1 at 55days and WW2 at 47 days, the small one doesn't look as if she will yield any decent buds but will give something to say the least.
The younger plant went through a rapid growth phase like a rocket and I am loving the way she is budding up now.
These are said to be 10 weeks seeds so only 2 to go for ww1 and 3 for her younger sister who has buds coming along quickly as well.
Both have begun to show yellowing of lower leaves which I take is a good sign as the plant is going to now rely on bloom nute only and ph 6.5 water.
Top 2 pics are the WW1 and last is the new "groom" as they say.
