New Grower Trying again, Berry Ryder and Blue Mystic
- Thread starter Fluke83
- Start date
The Berry Ryder should catch up. I grew Berry Ryder last year and when she took off, she took off. I cut mine early but was some kick ass greens man. I'd have to go back and check the thread I posted but I believe she got 28 inches to 3 feet. Her buds grew fast and sticky. Mine was a stinker too.
Yeah, I'd probably never have the heart to kill a plant that was still green anyway. I've grown out some severely stunted and gnarly plants in my time, heheh...
But as the first day of her life was very hot and dry, would she maybe benefit from a small drink now, or will I be making things worse by watering more?
It's hard for me to decide on this, as a notorious over-waterer...

Awesome! A cool beer and nap in the sunshine, what more could a cat want. He's ace, great vibes man!
Aaaargh, the blue mystic suddenly just decided to start wilting for no apparent reason..! I looked in on them, and there she just was, limp and floppy... :-(
I pushed some of the top layer up around her to support her stem and get her leaves in the light again, and gave her a little drink, but unfortunately I'll soon be leaving for work again and won't be able to "babysit" her through the night....
9 hour shift.. What will I be coming home to?
The berry ryder is looking spry though (knock on wood), even if she is no bigger than she was the day she broke ground...
Blue Mystic, wilting, day 1
Berry Ryder, small but alive, day 4

Can gnats make a plant suddenly wilt?
There's still a couple of these fuckers hanging around my grow space, will have to try some more ways of getting rid of them completely, but there haven't been enough of them to seem like a problem, just one or two at a time.
It's either them that made my plant wilt, or maybe my cat tried to play patty cakes with it in an unsupervised moment. She was bent over and floppy literally just from one moment to the next, but I was pretty sure he was nowhere around at the time.... Hmm.....

Uh-oh...... I know what's the matter here.... It's such a stupid mistake I'm ashamed to admit it..... I didn't check the soil ph again before starting up... :slaps:
I mixed the soil, let it sit and "cook" for about a month, THEN checked the ph (which was 6.3 then), then I put the soil away in buckets under a tarp on my balcony, since I was going away on vacation for a week.......
Thought the soil would be good when I got back, and just jumped into it.....
And now I can't find my proper PH meter..! I had to dig up some ph strips, which seemed to indicate a runoff of about 5.5...
And I can't for the life of me remember where my proper meter is.. Aaargh..!
And since I was doing all this in a rush before work I didn't have time to emergency transplant the Berry Ryder into something else. What a fucking muck up this turned out to be...
I even soaked a Candy Kush to replace the wilted Blue Mystic, she will probably be ready for planting tomorrow morning, so I have to rush and make some new soil for her when I get home, and turn the house upside down for my PH meter, otherwise I'll have no idea what I'm doing.
The "fun" never stops around here, heheh...
Edit: D'OH..! Now I remember where my ph meter is.... I hid it and some other grow stuff a few weeks ago because of a (slighty dangerous) date that was coming over... Phew...

Bah, I'm officially scrapping this grow, the gnats were more of a problem than I thought and they're what ate the Blue Mystic (found larvaes crawling all over her stem when I dug though the top layer) and the Berry Ryder is still alive but hasn't grown in size at all, and no new leaves apart from the first two, not even a nub visible at the center.
If the Candy Kush I soaked yesterday actually germinates I'll start a separate log for her, and I'll make sure any new soil mix is gnat free before I put it anywhere near my grow space.
And here I was, thinking this would be my most successful grow yet, heheh...
