5x5 LED - T-Time grow time

[SSGrower]

Ok,
I have a slight idea....
Stem split and some rot got onto the plant. Possible ?
No bad smell coming from the pot.

Yeah, it was the color of it that got me. Looks like just the one branch affected, but the spots on the leaves and the color of the stem make me think rust but I find it odd how green the rest of the plant is. I have hard enough time diagnosing shit in my own garden so take what Imsay with a grain od salt.

Day 30,

I had to tie some branches as they are starting to flop. I dont mind, its a good sign
Few more days and will have to start flushing. Not doing boiling roots, too risky with bud rot.

What do trichs look like ?

What do trichs look like ?

Didn't check yet. Will have a look tmrw. Last time they finished at day 45 so will start flushing around day 35 if trichoms will be showing few ambers.

seems like if they publish 8 weeks you should add two more !

I never go with what producer says. Most of the time they are off a good bit. First I look how ripe they are and then check the trichs. Thats the best practice, at least for me.

 

[ttystikk]

Plants mature at different rates based on environmental factors like temperature, light intensity, CO² levels, etc. Generally, the more intensive growing environment, that is, brighter and hotter with more nutes, higher CO² levels and such, the faster they'll finish.

Most hobby growers run a less intensive set-up so it stands to reason their plants would take longer to fully ripen. That should not be taken to mean that one approach is better or worse than the other.

Day 32

First few amber trichs showed up. So ladies are on schedule if not a bit early

 

[T-Time]

Some new guys showed up. Germination rate on those Critical seeds isnt the best. 13/19 :/

germinate in peat ? try coco and perlite.....pre soak seed

They were pre soaked for 12h+ :/
Tried my standard hanging paper towel in plastic bag technique on them twice before with the same poor result.

Just for that reason I'll have some space left , couse some of the seeds didnt germinate, I decided to use some seeds I've got laying around. Just for a experiment , I'll keep those in veg tent (18/6) for as long as I can and when time comes they will be put into flowering tent with the rest normal photo seeds on 11/13 or 10/14 (didint decided on that one yet). Whats the worst that can happen right? Dont worry, I know what to expect, less light = less yield and I'm fine with that, but othervise it would be wasted space so why not.


BTW
My probably best result ever was from 6x Auto RQ N.Lights in a 5x2.5' space. 830g of bulky buds from 600 HPS.

sup, tea.

i think youre asking for a pain in the ass haha!

seen some massive autos...

Hahaha said a man with how many tents and running how many strains ?
Probablyy You're right. It will make growing less boring tho

Second option would be to keep them in the veg tent, but theres very little head room and my missus wouldnt be too happy

 

[lukio]

many tents and running how many strains

nightmare mate!

i cant grow auotos to save my life!

 

[T-Time]

Chop day day 40. I could let them go few more days but today ways best day for trim jail.
Actually it wasn't too bad this time. No larf and hard compact buds. Took only 4h trimming between two ppl and about 1-2h more for cleanup and hanging.

Last seen alive.

 

[T-Time]

Few more...

 

[T-Time]

And last few...



Pots were filled with roots and hard to squize. Good , but I can do better with up potting next round and not jumping from 1L to 8L right away.

Anyway this round wen't fairly ok with only few problems:
- ph pen out of calibration for god knows how long :/ . Will have to clean, calibrate and double checi the pens before every round.
- i think they went too dry around week 4.
- rot started to appear on one or two buds. Which was part of the reason they got cut early. Will have to play around woth the fans again as its second time in a row and that strain supposed to be mold resistant


Time to rest now

Get a humidity dome on those...

 

[T-Time]

Get a humidity dome on those...

Was thinking about it. Wont improve germination but will improve conditions for later on.
How long do You keep Your babies under the dome ?

if you see roots coming out the sides it's time to transplant.

 

[T-Time]

Not trying to be rude mate, but that wasnt my question...

I know when to transplant and it's definitely not when I see roots sticking out the sides. That would be day two after they were seeded in those pellets and they can safely stay there another few days, filling the space with roots.
