Indoor Mo Triangle Dragons!

He'll I can't sleep anyways so I went ahead and grabbed some pics. They're not the best but you can see how well they did in just 1 day when things are right. The brown on the roots is from the great white, it's not slimy or stinky and I usually just rinse it off when I change water. You can actually just wiggle the plant around in the bucket to get it to fall off. I may be using to much, my bottle didn't come with a scoop. The little one is the one the dog pulled up and it's still hanging on. It may reroot as it still has some green leaves.

Here they are at 16 days. I'm going to look at other logs and see when these start putting out preflowers,, none yet. Roots are starting to break out of that pot well now but I think I already messed up with the vermiculite peat mix as it always stays real damp and the roots didn't have to search for water so they bound them self in the pots which may cut there size down. I sure hope at least 1 is female . Not a real good start for my virgin grow on new room but plants are healthy so what more could you ask for. Ppms are at 600 (400 actual nuts as tap water is 200) and will start upping that every couple days soon. These don't need much it seems, good color green. Little one didn't make it the other one the dog got you can't hardly tell anymore.

here they are at 19 days. The one born with twisty leaves has them twisting again. I think they are fine but i am concerned some. When you take them out from under hid lights it is alot darker green than the other one so i dropped the ppms back down to 600 with base so theyre getting 400 nutes. tips have a very very slight burn that you cant even see in pics. i dont know whats in my tap water. No ph issues and no heat so I'm thinking it just likes to twist.

I already let Goauto know of my mishap so I'll share it in here now. I messed up in my research and got perlite and vermiculite mixed up. I should have done perlite and peat but did vermiculite instead and did it 50/50. So what I have is a media that holds way to much water. Here is a link to another awesome grow of same strain. https://www.autoflower.org/threads/triangle-dragons-grow-by-margahooja.46912/ My plants are about a week ahead of his in size at same age but I won't get close to the yeild. I don't have the root structure as the roots don't want to leave the pots. I tried dropping water down but it just starts to kill the roots. The growth is actually slowing down alot. Im expecting problems for the rest of the grow. The smaller one has signs of it needing more nitrogen and the big one is starting to show a mag def. I will be lucky if if dont get root rot. This is a very hardy strain as i can only guess what ph issues and salt build ups are going on in those pots. This has turned into a stress test grow for these awesome plants I tmay have preflowers coming in and nodes are alternateing now so they should sex real soon. Here are some pics ps if i get a male im growing him out for pollen.

What a rough start for my new room. It's all good though, always learning. I'm gaining experience with root rot . Lol. First time ever so I'm on the lucky side I like to think. Good news is big one seems real resistant to root rot and is growing pretty good for the lack of roots. It is putting some out now but i have no idea how it can be that big with the roots it has. Now little one...well you could see it in the outer roots first as they starting turning dark, not quit black color then all the bottom leaves and growth started dieing so I picked up the pot and rinsed all I could out of the pot. It is literally lie in on its side with what little roots it has just sitting in pot lol. Truth is I wanted to see what the roots looked like the most to be honest and I figured I would lose this one anyways. Well it's comeing back, going to be tiny, but it's comeing back. Actually have some white in the roots and a tiny bit of new growth on roots. Lost all the pics I took where I was rinsing off roots and the root paste that used to be my root ball. Most the roots just rinsed off and we're tiny tiny, but as thick as your hair maybe.

Couple quick pics. These guys don't take much nutes. Big one is at 650 total ppms so only getting 450 from nutes. Tips burned I think around 800 total ppms or a tad more than half strength of nutes. They want cal mag though and at 2ml per gal, well big one anyways. Little is still struggling with some toxicity and pH. Big one is kinda skinny but may actually come out with a good yeild, if female. Still can't sex them. Should be soon, hoping big one is female.

Measured it, 22 inches tall and still can't sex. Think it is female from preflowers cause they look like a cone but no hairs and pics aren't clear. Has a root ball about the size of a softbalk. Tell you what, if it turns out to be female and those roots fill up my bucket this thing is going to be a beast. I'm thinking a 3 fot tall min.

I'll get some pics up tonight. Still haven't sexed. Starting to wonder if it's a photo lol. Cones may be new branches. Changed out rez. Root ball is about the size of a soccer ball now. If it keeps going and fills up bucket this is going to be a nice yeilder. I'm going to copy somewhat of majahooja's trimming since his triangle dragon responded so well. Here is his grow https://www.autoflower.org/threads/triangle-dragons-grow-by-margahooja.46912/page-6 At 32 days both plants are the same height his was blooming and mine still looks 4 or 5 days before it starts and hasn't started stretching yet. I'm excited, this already is biggest auto I've grown.

Quick pick. She's 24 in tall. Calling her a she because I think it has cones with no hairs. I'll be throwing up some pics later because she is going to get 2 tall for my room if she just puts out another foot. I cut most the big fan leaves off to see how she would handle it few days ago and I'm about to trim her up some more and tie some branches down Hopefully I can get a pic clear enough to confirm she's female. Would put me mind at ease lol.
