Indoor Here we go : Feminized Blueberry & Vertigo

[grompa]

stretching has begun. I guess for the next 2 weeks I will be busy bending, tucking,tying and all that s&m shit. fed them yesterday with 2ml of grow and 2 ml of alg-a-mic per litre. next feeding will be in 6-7 days, and I will introduce blooming nutes and hold off the alg-a-mic for a while. here's a photo update:

My cooltube and carbon filter will arrive in the weekend so I'll be busy upgrading the grow cabin. hopefully I'll be able to get my 250 HPS closer to them. the autoflower vertigo's have taken off, but no signs of buddage yet, maybe 20/4 is too much? the blueberry has started flowering. its short and bushy. here's a photo update for tonight.

You will be able to get much closer grompa...meaning more light = fatter buds for you

My new toys have arrived.
a 350 m3/h carbon filter
a silent 350/125 soler palau fan
one cooltube
flexible pipes.
some duct tape.
I'll set these up tonight, hopefully I'll be smell & heat free.

System up and running. the smell has dissappeared totally and the temps stabilized at 25C (78F). cooltube sits 6 inches from the top of the plants. fed their first dose of blooming nutes. no problems so far. Here's a photo update.

bondage has begun. One of the vertigos almost touched the cool tube, so I bent it down. will check on her tomorrow to see how she responds, the other will be bent likewise. The blueberry is short and bushy no LST for her.
The new carbon filter is doing wonders. almost no smell even when I stick my head in the tent.
Here's a bondage photo:

day 40

Here's a photo update. Just fed them with 1 ml biobizz grow, 2 ml biobizz alg a mic, 0.3 ml Atami bloombastic per liter per pot. Today is day 40 since they popped from soil. I think I'm halfway through. stretching seems to be over, hopefully some bud packing begin soon. the blueberry is a little ahead, short but larger bud sites, the vertigos on the right have a nice citrus smell. 3-4 days between watering seems to be OK.

Day 44

Happy new year everyone! I wish healthy plants, huge harvests for all you growers!
today was feeding day, 1ml grow 2ml alg a mic 0.5 ml bloombastic per liter for all of them. very mild yellowing on the lowest branches. no visible problems so far. do they look OK ?

Hey Grompa,
Its hard to see the yellowing leaves in the picture. Is it the old bottom fan leaves that its effecting or are there yellow on younger leaves towards the top?

Day 48

a little update. The blueberry is frosting up nicely, white hairs thickening. no browning yet. the vertigos have started flowering, bud sites fattening slowly.
I have a few yellow fan leaves on the very bottom of the plants. 1-2 on each. all the rest is green as it should be. I suppose losing 1-2 fan leaves at the bottom is normal?
