New Grower Jelly0's OG Mephisto Grow!

[jelly0]

Day 43:

Hello again here we are with another update. To help with airflow I bought a box fan and stuck it into my closet. I hung it from a hanger to get a nice downward angle on it lol it looks flimsy but it is holding for now.

Girls had 800mls of feed with recharge added last night. No big bud for MBAP yet, maybe tomorrow. She started to pop out trichomes so I brought her light down to 24 inches.

Skywalker:

Her fruity smell has been supplemented with some fuel funk. She does look the most developed with the most orange pistils and trichs but her buds are still on the small side. Mephisto's site describes her as being small but dense so I'm not worried about it.

Her lowers are the most evenly developed of the three

Ripley:

Loving the fat chunky buds on her

MBAP:

She's still getting taller, keeping her bloom part A @ 2ml/l for now. Very nice circular shape on her.

Buds are nice and tall at the tips, surprisingly she has a stronger smell than Ripley already. Very similar in smell to her sister Sky with more funkiness.

Enjoy the weekend everyone happy growing to you

Great job on these journals! I will be following from here on out. Keep up the good work!

 

[NugNoob]

Looking mighty fine!

 

[MoreBerry]

Phenomenal grow so far! I just read through the entire thing. Your plants are looking exceptional!!

Thanks for dropping by @BigD1128 and @MoreBerry welcome! And nice to see you again @NugNoob do you have a new grow going!?

Day 49:

Girls are fully flowering now, tent is looking pretty good! There have been some problems I've been noticing on my plants, this led to a lot of research since I have so many symptoms (mostly the downward leaf curl, burnt tips, dark green thin leaves) but I am pretty sure I have figured it out now. I have come to the conclusion that the ladies have a sulfur deficiency, I'm hoping that it won't affect yield too badly.... to fix this I have added Epsom salts to my feed @ 1/4 teaspoon per liter and am using distilled water as well. I've been using filtered tap and I think the plants were given too much calcium, which blocked out the sulfur. We will see if they fix themselves in a couple of days. All three were trimmed this week. MBAP has her lights at 24 inches and the other two have it at 20. Given 1 liter of feed each.

Sky:

She seems to be affected the most by the problems as she's the darkest with the most downward curl. Not too frosty yet hoping she'll explode once the deficiency is fixed. Nice fruity smell coming off of her.

Ripley:

She's gotten pretty fat and frosty, looking great! She has this chocolatey coffee like earthy funk smell to her, delicious...

MBAP:

She's affected the least so I'm thinking that since it's been caught early she'll get pretty big, guessing she'll be the biggest yielded of the three. In trying to keep the plants level with each other I cracked the main stem while spreading her out just like her sister Ripley... that silica is really working lol. She smells like her two sisters combined...

Apologies for the lack of updates my phone has died on me. In the meantime I will use my roommate's phone. Have a great weekend everyone! Happy growing to you

Your plants are looking lovely! Nice job spreading them out. The downward leaf curl at the tip and the darker colour leaves indicate a N toxicity to me and the tip burning signifies nute burn. I could be wrong of course, just throwing out my opinion. Keep up the great work though!

Looking great bro! Waiting until Sept for the next grow. Getting ready though!

Day 55:

We're getting closer to the end here just a few more weeks for at least two of the girls, both skywalker and ripley are on overdrive for that final bud swell. They don't look like the perfect picture of health but I'm hoping to just get them to the finish line at this point. Lovely wall of terps hit me every time I open the door to the room.

Sky:

You are probably right in guessing N tox especially with this one @Raoul-Duke combined with the other issues so I'm cutting down on the N by reducing bloom a and b-52 to 1/4 strength. She's drinking the least out of all three @ 800mls

Ripley:

She's the frostiest of them all! I'm loving the smell she gives off - super earthy funk.

Of course the side branch that I snapped at the beginning turned out to be the fattest.... hah

MBAP:

The buds are pretty big already even though she looks to be behind the others. The trichome heads haven't really fattened up yet. She looks very leafy and lighter in color compared to her sisters. Don't think she has N tox and she hasn't responded to the sulfur yet but I'll wait a bit more and see what's up. We're so close to the end that I feel like she'll make it unless I make a huge mistake.

Vs Sky

Vs Ripley

Some of the leaves are turning brown and dying off, no clue what's going on here but I'm not too worried at the moment. It starts at the leaf tips and margins.

Anyone has any clues on that problem let me know! My wild guess is copper deficiency.

Happy growing folks

Looking good, just put 4 of 8 in soil. Hope mine do as well as these.
