My growing journey begins

It’s almost impossible to see anything wrong under blurple light. Can you get pictures in normal light?

Hey mate, I didn't mean to really ask for help with this post and wanted to make photos tomorrow and then post it :D
But as you are willing to get involved already (awesome man) let me get there and make the photos already! Stay tuned!

Meanwhile here, take a virtual puff or two :pass:
 
Thanks to @Sleeper143 I motivated myself to make the photos already and not wait till tomorrow.


For a starter a major mess up from me. The glass domes with water drops inside created lenses that burned the seedlings... Next time I will use plastic cups instead of glass ones... I don't like synthetic materials but there is no other option I think...

And here are some close ups of the older plants, that are in DAY#25 (both Auto BubbleGums)

The plants don't look that bad bot not very happy either... I would go for Ca and Mg defficiencies... What do you think?


And the ladies are into flowering soon, don't you think?

From all the research I did my conclusion is Calcium and Magnesium deficiencies. So I grounded egg shells from 3 eggs, mixed with some used coffee grounds and applied on top of mulch under both plants. Watered good. The young ones can wait; I don't have more eggs atm. I will get more eggs tomorrow, make the powder again and add on top of that (without coffee this time). I hope it will help.

DAY#32 for two Auto Bubblgum plants. 3 days ago I broke the main steam of BGPP#1 while LSTing... but I realized it about 24h later and immedietely taped it with the electrical elastic tape. I was completely broken but didn't fall of, ws still hanging on a small piece and I think it saved the part from dying. It still looks pretty healthy today. The BGPP#2 is growing insanly good comparing to the other one. Last 3 days I have to water it once a day already when the other one like every 3 days. Here are the photos of the two:

DAY#13 for other two Auto Bubblegums

I ordered some grinded neem tree seeds to fight fungus gnats. It should arrive in a few days.
 
DAY#47 for two Auto Bubblegums and DAY#28 for other two.

My girls have some nutrients problems, both immobile and mobile. A day ago I started watering with distilled and well water in ratio 1:1. The well water is untested but it's stream water, pretty clean. It tastes like iron what made me dilute it so I don't overfeed the plants with it. I decided to use it cause my plants have - imo - cal mag deficiency and crushed eggshells topdressing seems to be veeery slow releasing.



BGPP#2 (this one has more visible problems, grows faster and is more hungry) (more photos attached)

I have one other option - I found some cal mag powder in my basement that belonged to the previous occupant. The thing is in German and I can't find what it is exactly in English but I made a photo of it (is attached below). It's called "Kohlensaurer Magnesiumkalk 90". It's made of 55% CaCO3, 35% MgCO3 and 54% CaO... looks like Germans suck in math xD I can't find any info on it if it's suitable for True Living Organics... wutcha think @Waira ? While making photos I realized the leafs green colour also isn't the greenest in some areas - NPK deficiency?


I started brewing some stinging nettle tea. I put a very little of fresh chicken and rabbit poop as a catalyst, and some eggshells powder and DE as a mineral boost for microbeasties (just freestyling with what I have atm on hand). It's like 5 days old so still needs a few days to be ready to use. BUT I'm not sure if it's safe to use during this advanced flowering.

I really need a little advice guys. @Iriee Vibez @Mizzo81 @hecno @DMHeights @hope2grow @automan2
I will be very grateful if any of you told me straight what I am doing wrong or what I am not doing that I should!


BGPP#1 you can see in the previous post how I accidentally topped the plant :D I left it how it was and it actually resurrected the main steam as 4 new ones! nice! I hope that they will ripen fast enough to catch up.

One of the younger ones looks really strange since she popped out of the soil. It grows normally so I thing it's just some genetics problem. Just take a look:

Wish I could help but I’m not an organic with teas and top dressing type. Lol. Hopefully an organic guru will stop in.
 
Damn, sorry to read this, man. It sucks when there are problems with the ladies. There definitely is something going on, probably a couple things. I would probably do a tea, as well, but the teas I brew take 24-48 hours. I am not familiar with a 7 day brew tea. The fuzzy growth on the leaves could be mildew/mold? I am sure @Waira has a better diagnosis. What’s the normal temp/humidity in there? You definitely have a lot of foliage there, and may want to clip some of those overlapping fans for better airflow. I don’t think I remember what you are doing airflow wise, but you want to keep the air moving, and add wind via small fans.

The plants look like they are survivors, though. Some folks more familiar with these issues will chime in.

The temp is around 25-26 Celcius and humidity 60% so seems good. I thought not clipping the leafs off is more natural way... you know... like in nature :D There is one pretty strong fan turning from side to side and all the leafs on each plant move slightly... Apart from the ones on the very bottom in the middle... So maybe they die from lack of light and wind... no idea

And about the tea... I think you make the aerating thing to it huh? Because I make the simple way, just leave it till rotten :D but will have to buy the bubbling thing to make it faster. But don't you think my plants are too far into flowering to use teas? Won't it affect the taste and stuff?
