Day 30
Blackberries are really starting to stretch. ABK-1 gained 1 3/4" vertical growth since yesterday. Side branches on the Blackberries (ABKs) are extending out and up nicely as well. Polar Express is finally starting to stretch, I thought I was going to have to start trimming this one since the leafs are very wide heavy dense type Indica. but now that its stretching I can hold off trimming the lower area for now. I thought it might smother itself.
Temperature is staying between 77-78 degrees F.
Humidity is btw 48-58% mostly just drops when I open the tent.
Lights are still running 20/4 ** this will not change over the grow.
I have modified my nutrients a small amount:
- I added 1 tsp of Grow Big to my daily mix of Recharge 1/2 tsp, Superthrive 1/4 tsp and Kelp 1 tbl. Also added the Canna Rhiztonic dose to this Tea brew instead of a separate feeding.
**** A note of Recharge
****This is my first indoor grow but not my first grow. I am a big believer in Recharge, I honestly think it is Viagra for canna.
It does not have any fertilizer but great stuff for the root system. It also helps to prevent pH lockout. Okay stepping off my Recharge soapbox.
- Canna Coco A & B - 40 ml per gallon -
- Cal/Mag is 3 ml per gallon --- I feed every other day. I really would like to avoid the 60 day Cal/Mag deficiency that many have been running into.
- Once a day I feed a small amount of lower pH water of 4.0 *** My coco soil pH is still running around 6.8 - it is gradually dropping but slowly. *** The plants seem to respond very well to this feeding.***
- Also started adding in more mushroom compost to the felt pots that can take it. Due to the compression of the medium in some pots, there is room to add. As I have mentioned previously, Mushroom Compost is a must for any type of plant I grow, whether is herbs, tomatoes, Banana Trees, hanging baskets. The shroom mix is an absolute must. I have a rep for growing big plants of any type, the MC is one of my main tools.
Scrog net is now in place 11" above medium. ABK-1 is the 1st to reach the net with ABK-3 close behind. ABK-2 is the runt of the bunch, it will be a while.
Really looking forward to the "Grow Show" the next couple of weeks.
It's time to get my buzz on
Happy Tokes all!!!

Question: plants are day 32, as you can see they are super dense. Just starting to hit the SCRoG net, at what point do i start trimming the lower portion???
I moved my fan down to pot level for better circulation.
So any helpful advice is appreciated!!

Looking might-ee fine MrGoat!

We've got similar nets, must admit I've used mine for support rather than doing it properly so will be very interested to see your results - I LST'd to begin with, went away for a few days then came back to growth that had blasted thru the net!

I've got a thread going in new growers as well coming up to 7 weeks in, 4 x Shortstuff Gorilla OG in auto pots - proper Jungle! Sending you good vibes on your grow. Nuglet.

Hey, thanks for the look! I will definitely check out your grow. I know what you mean about the LST, it's pretty cool to bend and tuck in the morning and see results in the evening. I started this grow a couple weeks after a full knee replacement so i had plenty time to give my full attention the first 25 days.
Checking out your journal.
