Indoor Grow 1.5 : Auto Jack Herer & Biodiesel Mass & Bag Seed Plant

[bigfun]

Well, the blunderous plunders are still asunder.

Today is 4 weeks into flower. My superstar is now a dud, as I mentioned in the infirmary thread.

I think I've done all the right things. A couple of days ago, I feed with just some of the Meta-K (0-0-5), which does not seem to change the ph.

Following some advice from the Earth Juice web site, I have begun to try to experiment with ph. I have purchased some dolomite lime and added a few table spoons to the top. I gave another feed today, with strong nutes on the P&K.

Here are pics of her yesterday, (today is 4wks into flower).

loosing a couple of leaves now

I may just end up with smaller buds. I'll keep learning and adjusting.



The first cutting from the DeLaHaze that I was able to save, it's leaves are pale. I flushed it and added some ph'ed nutes. I was hoping to pur her into flowering today, but I may see if she gets any more healthy.



Here is the autoflower Jack Herer, also a misfit 4 weeks into flower.



Now, here is the good news: The autoflower GOM babe is 4 weeks old today. This is her yesterday:

At 4 weeks, I can see the excitement and promise of a properly grown autoflower in this plant!

So, I decided to be brave or a fool, and I super-cropped her right in the middle. My first supercropping! Woo hoo!

She responded well, the tip was turned back up this morning.

I may train the branches to be a little more spread out.

The adventures continue.

Great entertaining read so far man!

Subbed for the rest of the adventure!

Thanks Hardon! ... I also look forward to following your epic grow off, too! Right now, I'm mostly in a battle with myself ;-p

... I've read several of your posts, and like the GLR stuff, I wonder, however, if it just makes the autoflower plants grow a little slower. In another sticky thread it seems autos finish fastest under 24 hr. In any case, I look forward to the results! .... it seems like you certainly got plenty of growing experience, so please chime in with any suggestions you might see fit.

fun stuff!!

They are not dead yet! But they are all stressed. It was so much easier to toss a bagseed into a pot and ingore it ;-)

... speaking of the bag seed plant - I did manage to get it to re-veg. I think it's my best looking plant.




Here is my DeLaHaze -- just over 6 weeks into flower, and about 3 more to go. ph issues, bah. I am adjusting my feeds ph. My latest strategy is to offset the ph just right so the plant defoliates itself slowly while it flowers ... not really. Not a total fail.






Last week, I did stick the top piece of the DeLaHaze into the flowering cycle, too. I've yet to get a successful cutting from 'trying', but I've got one more.



The "autoflower" Jack Herer is also ok, sorta.


But whats cool, it my 2nd autoflower, which is only 6 week old is starting to supass the DeLaHaze and the Jack. It's suffering a bit too. When tying down a branch it snapped off, except for barely a thread, but the branch seems to be living. I didn't even notice it for a day or two... anyway, I can really see how a well grown auto would be pretty cool at this point. This is an awesome plant, and I think I did the right thing super-cropping in the middle when I did. This thing is getting fat quick under 24hr light cycle. It's my GOM mystery seed. 6 weeks old. Sorry for the crappy picture...


I'm gonna at least get some buds

First couple grows can be challenging ... then it all comes together ...

 

[bigfun]

thanks Chester ... I'll nominate myself as 'Contributor of the Month' for photo examples in the plant infirmary!

...why is getting good soil so challenging?!

 

[auto crazy]

Thx Chester.Iam still a newbie,have learned nothing set in stone.Wealth of info on net,but have to use on judgment
