Hello
I'm a little ways into my second grow. Was very happy with our first harvest and am hoping to up my game with help from the community. The grow is as follows;
GSC Photos X 2 in five gallon fabric pots
Purple Kush Autos x 3 in three gallon fabric pots
The 2 GSC's are 6 weeks old in veg
The 3 P.K Autos are 4 weeks old today and are pre-flowering
Indoors in a 48 X 48 X 80" Ohuhu tent
2 X Sunraise 1000w equiv ( lol ) Full Spectrum LED lights - they pull 165W each at the wall, hung 24" above auto canopy
Soil is: 50% OF from first grow
5% Peat moss
15% Compost
30% Perlite
Soil Amended with: EWC, bone meal, Epsom salts, Dolomite, kelp meal, crab meal
The girls are watered every 3 days with water that has sat out for 24 hours and been Ph'd to 6 - 6.2
The P.K autos get 1 liter each with molasses
The GSC get 1.25 liters each with molasses
EC never higher than 150 - 180 ppm
Tent temp 26c RH 25 - 40%
That's pretty much the setup. So far so good. I'm hoping not to have to feed anybody at all. The soil was cooked out slowly on my balcony and is rich in nutrients and drains well. No need to flush as I don't add anything more than kelp and molasses when I feed them.
I started to LST all of the girls and I am amazed at how fast they grow after being manipulated into a flatter canopy. Haven't done any LST of any kind before. Nothing more complicated than topping in my first grow. Any pointers here would be so appreciated.
I started the photos ( GSC ) a couple of weeks earlier than than the PK Autos in order to have a continual harvest of sorts lol. I'm hoping to harvest the autos right about at the time I flip the photos to 12/12. Right now all the girls are on a 18/6 sched.
The issue is the PK autos are very stressed (?). I have 2 small fans going with no wind blowing on the canopy. The soil is well balanced so I don't need to feed the girls anything other than water with a little molasses. IDK..... I'm thinking I may need to raise the lights higher. They're 2 ft above the canopy atm.
Any help or suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Would hate for things to go south.
