Indoor Snerval runs mostly Indicas on BioTabs Line - Second grow

[snerval]

I do leave all the fan leaves as those are the solar panels and storage for starches which will be needed during flower

I had to remove some of them because they shaded too much flower sites on their sisters.

As @Vapo explained maybe I'll try a second top, especially on plants like Gorilla Cookie which want to expand... a green house... my dream...

Bonjour AFN !

Quick little update of my indica garden...
Everything seems to be going ok, the plants are doing well, Biotabs is doing its job !

I think I still have a month ahead of me before considering the start of the harvest, we'll see...
The heat wave in my country is not over, it's quite a pain to keep the VPD afloat, but we're getting there.

Here are a couple photos of the girls for you

Blueberry Auto :

The small but vigorous OG Kush Auto - She's developing a big fat main cola, which is quite pleasant given the fact that her sister died and that this one had a rough start in life :

The Wedding Glue Auto girl is also rather small, but maybe it's due to the genetics ?

I spotted (pun intended) this leaf which has small yellow-orange dots... @Bob's Auto's, what do you think ?
Is it an excess or on the contrary a deficiency (which would be surprising, given what the plants receive) ?

Last but not least, the impressive (to me ^^) Gorilla Cookie Auto - I really hope she will stop growing NOW, because I don't have any room left above her !
In case she continues to grow, is there something I can do, without stressing her too much ?
I tag @Vapo if you please can give an advice ?

A bientôt !

I think it's sunburn from waterdrops that where on the leaves, looking at those pictures...

I'm not a specialist like Vapo, but why not bend one branch under the other, just like starting to tie your shoe...

Ah yes I didn't think of that - Hope you're right !
I will keep an eye on this, in case it spreads out.

Good idea, but I don't dare lol !

Hi !
There are some upper leaves on my wedding glue auto that show some orange/brownish dots.
The plant isn't really sick, she's 50 days old, but I'm curious about what this is ?
Running on biotabs
Thanx !

Bonjour AFN !

On another thread I had some info about the brown/orange spots - it seems to be due to calcium deficiency OR excess... Don't know what to do really, but the plant doesn't look sick, so I'm not keen to interfere, what if I worsen the situation ? It's weird because each plant receives exactly the same treatment

Anyway, the girls are doing well from what I can tell, I wouldn't want to disturb this happiness as I approach the end !
Unless I know what to do that is.

Gorilla Cookie Auto - day 58
This plant amazed me with her 2 main colas obtained thanks to my successful topping above the 5th node

Next run I'll try a FIM action because as @Bob's Auto's explained to me, I could eventually get 4 main colas !
Didn't know that, sounds promising but... surely there's a catch lol
Next grow I'm willing to take the risk on one plant.

I give GC 10ml/L of PK 5-8 once a week, then plain water - this Biotabs flower booster helps the buds to develop well - they are starting to stack noticeably too

Has anyone ever grown this strain ? If so approximately how many days until harvest ?

BlueBerry Auto - day 58
This plant remains modest in size but slowly develops its flowers which begin to thicken and fill with resins, terpenes, beneficial cannabinoids etc... the smell is very rich already, and the stickiness increase at a great rate

BB

She receives the same treatment as her sister with 2 colas, but here the reaction to the PK 5-8 boost looks like she sprinkled sugar on herself !

OG Kush Auto - day 52
Despite a difficult childhood with probably a root problem since day 1, this little plant that I left almost untouched (just did a light defo a while ago) develops a very nice main cola. She receives 7ml of PK 5-8 - water - water.

Wedding Glue Auto - Day 54
So this is the girl that shows some signs of weakness (orange/rusty spots) on some top leaves - I also noticed some that claw upward... surely another indication of the problem ?
What do you think my friends ?

This girl is surfing the edge of nutrient excess. Try to half the amount of PK you give her, if at all possible...
The rest of the girls are amazing brother. Ain't it bliss growing on BioTabs?

Hey man looking great so far. Your set for a nice harvest in a few weeks! As far as they leaves if they canoe then you have too much light. If they are just "praying" some so to speak then from what I understand that's a good sign and you have the perfect amount of light.

As far as those spots if I had to guess it's a Ca deficiency, brighter orangish rust spots are usually what I associate with an excess and those look more yellow. Could be what bob said above and just be an excess of nutrients causing a lockout rather than not having enough.

Guess that means you have to decide if you want to lower your feed or up your Calmag. Based on the fact that the others are doing well with the same regimen I'd probably just lower the feed down a bit first and give it 4 or 5 days to see if it gets worse.

I was thinking of giving her water only for a few watering, and then slowly add light amount of PK... hope this will work !
As you say, it's really great to grow with biotabs ! I'll stick with it in the future for sure ^^

My Led light is set on 80% because of the Gorilla Cookie girl, I was afraid to burn her... if I have to lower the power even more, maybe I will have a lack of light, don't you think ?
The tips clawing up on some leaves is from this morning, the few past days the plant was praying... I wish I knew more in order to interpret correctly what the plant is saying.
Oh well, so much to learn !
