Mephisto Genetics Girls gone wild: in my tent! - Mephisto Edition

[Wallflower82]

The next sweet n sour is almost done, she’s a runt but she smells like heaven on earth, I can’t stop smelling her and I probably look weird lol. Here she is

The sour livers are still tiny but I’m excited to see what they do. I really want to put them into these autopots. Seriously considering it.

Group shot here.. oh the one with skinny leaves is a fast buds girlscout cookies. Probably the last fastbuds I’ll grow becUse, well there’s just too many mephisto strains I need the room for and I was never that impressed with their stuff to be honest tho I’m sure it would have come out a lot better in someone else’s garden lol

 

[Wallflower82]

Last but not least... the grapelets! When I started them I thought it would be neat to experiment with training them differently. It’s been interesting to see their progress, the topped one is by far the shortest but she’s my favorite so far, shh don’t tell the others.

Four AutoPots will be difficult to squeeze in, but you might get them in there...they will give you some flexibility for sure.
Good luck, i will be watching bro! Some nice things happening in there ent and more to come I believe.

Your plants are missing something, but I am not quite sure what it is...the discoloring shouldn't happen so soon. Also looks like a P toxicity maybe, not sure. Maybe @Waira can step in here also and give you a little advice.
I would have to look at the entire grow to figure out where you may have cut a corner or something. Nothing major serious, but your grows could yield three times whatnthey are yielding and improve quality of smoke as well. Maybe she will stop in and give you some help...give her a shout out and I am sure you will get help.

Rock on bro!

EC too high. Would go easier with base nutrients. Good luck!

It's organic, so I doubt it...yes, he could be overdoing it, but that is not the case as he uses BioTabs.

 

[Hippy Ending]

Lack of P me thinks Mr Czech. Yellow tips and yellow edges to leaves? Similar issues to the other Biotabs thread I reckon.

 

[Wallflower82]

I don’t use biotabs. I want to though but the shipping here to the states puts the bar too high for me unfortunately. I have megacrop / sweet candy and bud explosion, they get calmag and I use the cocowet on the soil so it doesn’t get too dry. Just what the bottle says, when they get water and everything else. The dirt is roots organic. They get spring water usually and the root ph is always spot on, I use the accurate 8 ph thing that Waira told me about and I have to say it’s a useful tool.

As far as the EC being high I will look into it the next tine I water/feed one of the grapelets. I’ll test the EC of the water pre nutrients post nutrients and from the runoff but I doubt it’s the EC only because I am almost positive I’m severely under feeding. I can’t seem to feed the amounts that greenleaf says on their website or I get n tox and other weird things so I just do less. But then they’re like begging for food so lately I feel damned if I do damned if I dont. They look a hell of a lot better than how things were looking like 5 months ago and I’m gettinf twice as much from just 2 gallons of dirt so .. there’s some real progress here but I gotta agree with you @MedCzech , they’re totally missing something.

I know my watering could probably be better because of my hectic schedule but ... I’m hoping autopots help with that. My temps are 78-83 with humidity ranging from 35 to 55, I know it isn’t ideal but it’s the best I can do right now. The fan controller has helped it come up a little. Other than that I wish I knew what was “missing”. For a while I’d suspected the height of the autocobs but I doubt it now, they stay at the top of the tent anyways and the plants just grow how they grow, that seems to have work

Ugh wish I knew why my yields are still on the sucky side

 

[MedCzech]

As I said bro, I am not really an expert on asessing issues like this one.soryy, I though you were running tabs, so sorry for the misunderstanding there,

You should be able to find feeding schedules for those nutes on line, or at least find someone who is growing with it and find out how much they use. When in doubt, try 2ml/l, that is pretty standard for most nutes...you could always start by doubling what you give them now and see ing it gives them tip burn, if not, add another 10% and keep doing that a couple more feeds. That would work too.

You will get this down and by your next grow, you will improve again. It's normal for most growers to take three to four grow cycles before really finding the right formula for them. Hang in there. You are getting closer now. Get your feeding schedules correct, environment sounds ok, and then you should be good to go.

I hope so my friend! I finally have a day off to try to set up these autopots, so pretty excited about that. I also decided that I will try a different food. My first choice isn’t really on the table; so I will have to wait on biotabs until there’s a cost effective US option but surely there are other things out there to try in the meantime.. guess I have some research to do. I decided I want to try something other than megacrop. If it works out better- great! If not no harm in tryin.

The plants look so great until flowering starts and even though I start bud explosion to boost PK, I still see a slow decline. I know it’s always gonna do that a little but I feel like it starts too soon and progresses too far, I know it’s effecting yields
