Outdoor first time grow balcony s.o.d.k mephisto gen & sensi skunk#1

[Chrisvel]

Hello everyone!!

first time grower here. i have two young plants at day 22 and i am pretty happy
they are on my balcony and take almost 14-15 hours sun light.
soil is biobizz light mix and i have biobizz nutes fish-grow-heaven-bloom-topmax
the weather some times is cloudy & rain , most times have sun and max 30 degrees
i am overcareful (that's not all times good) but i am not ph down my water. i only check sometimes my soil ph with test tube (it's not very acurate) and is 5.5-6
my first problem came today because i was left my soil to drain too much i think (3 days) and i see some adge purn! could nute burn? or ph problem?
i water 1 time with biogrow 2 times only water

thnks for rep.

at 80% i think to so.
i will water only from here and i will wait to want fertilizer (no too late).
also from today i spay them with neem oil because on my other plants the go white fly's and other dangerous insects. i hope to avoid them !!

hello half 4 week here already on preflower time from begging of the week!!
all good but have some white dots on leaves and one two black. not worrying that because i spay them with neem oil!
only little worrying is about 10% - 15% of white pistils has came brown but i think it will be ok.
any suggestions??

Hi Chrisval, I can't see anything wrong with your plants at all. in fact they look really good. It's good using neem oil if you suspect the white patches on your leaves are spider mite, that will keep them at bay. Not really sure about the brown pistols except maybe that the sun has got to them. Happy growing.

i am worrying for hermie thats why i mention it. maybe over worrying

also i decide for my next growing will be for sure not buying any biobizz or other nute for me! all are marketing products and are expensive!! you almost have to buy all collection and in the end you need more because elements are not all in the bottle.
so i decide my strategy with nutes will be ship and chicken manure mix in water (if needed some cal mg add extra on the plant). thats all and save biggggg money and its organic!!!!

Half of my plants outside are in normal compost mixed with chicken manure and I just give them plain water until they flower then start feeding them Dutch pro A&B bloom when they require it. My Auto's are in coco and I also feed them Dutch Pro auto flower grow then bloom and a range from CX Hydroponics when they start to flower which is also quite cheap. Budget is a big thing so look around for what you really need not what the shops tell you you need.

Can't see why you think they might hermie, they look fine dude.

Its good hear you are trying it too! You are experience grower.. how many years? Chicken manure + ship are very rich on phosphorus level i know. Manure has all range n-p-k so next time i will try without buy any product. also you have right about sellers...they whant to sell

I've been growing outside for 7 years and 3 inside. Correct on the chicken manure, that's why I use it. Good for roots and vegging but not so much for the flowering stage. By the time they get to flowering stage they have used just about everything in the soil that way allowing me to add what I want.
