Hi Guys and Girls,
So My names Let and I am completely new to all of this!! I am starting this venture because of my husband and his physical state, he relies on more pain killers than I like and I don't want to lose him to cancer and other shit because of it, ( by the way, i'm a female that swears, if you dont like it, better stop reading!!), PLus It has helped me for years with pain due to multiple breaks as a child in both arms, plus it relives migraines and PMS, so I've researched, researched some more, then did some reading too!!!! set myself up a 1x1x2m tent in our bedroom and went mad on Herbies and Seedsman websites!!!
I've got a 250w light, fan,extractor and carbon filter.I'm using a soiless mix with extra perlite, I'm also using Bio Bizz Grow, Bloom and Top Max, well, I am now!!!
So let me start by telling you that due to my husbands anxiety, I have not had anyone really that I am able to talk to about this, altho we do have a couple of very close friends,who have done this b4 and have been able to guide me through, but these websites are my way of being able to rant, vent, ask, explain and help if i can, So bare with me if i go on!!
So I started with a Northern Lights ( Royal Dutch seeds) from Herbies and a Barneys sweet tooth from Seedsman. I started both off in purified water for the first 24 hours to soften shell, I then poured onto plate and placed in warm cupboard for a further 24-48, once I saw the tap root coming through, I planted into 11Lt pots, that I had already put into the grow tent with lights on, so that they could warm up and be ready for the babies.
So 8 weeks ago, my first 2 little girls poked their head through to say hello to their mum, mate, was I proud!!! Just to get this far, for me, was a triumph!!!
So time seemed to slow down, completely, I felt like a mum to a new born again, checking every 2 mins for signs of life and when i did see 2, then 4 leaves, I cant tell you the feeling, then the shear panic!!!! Shiverlling leaves, what was I doing??? Too much spray?, too little?, to close to light? not enough air? questions questions and to many bloody answers!!! , So, ok take a check of yourself, they look burnt, so move the light!! Thew, disaster diverted!! Next few weeks, all is going good, then I start to see the yellowing of the leaves and by the time I have managed to sort myself out, It had taken over most of the plants, sweet being the most effected. By this point I was 2 weeks into the flower cycle, so I knew I could not give them anymore Nitrogen really, what I didn't relies, was that I was starving both of my babies, slowly but surely!!! All the while, thinking, its ok, i've given them to much, is it nute burn, just hold off, flush them, wait!!! My god did I make my brain hurt!!!
So after a good few sleepless nights, 8 weeks in, I took the opposite advice I had got and I fed them and fingers crossed, they certainly look better but now I am gonna flush Sweet in a few days, ready for harvest, then leave her to dry out for the duration of time, if poss. Northern is defo about 1 week behind sweet,if not more, she is still very white on pistals, where as sweet is starting to turn!
I also started off a bubble gum and sour diesel 5 weeks ago, of which I have put together a proper feeding plan and I have also researched till I had a better understanding of nutes and flushing out, thanks to Jane Doe on youtube!! So I feed B and D, 30ml G, 90ml B and 15ml TM in 30 Lt of water, ( they are in massive pots, panic buy!!!) and in 4-5 days, Im gonna flush, to clean them, ready for next feed ( Nappy change, so to speak), then I'm gonna feed them till the end, then flush, flush flush!!!.
So thats me and my girls, please feel free to comment and advise but if your just gonna bash, then bash someone that will listen, cos I'm female!!! Let AKA Queen B. x
