Please check out my new album =) Poor man's, to the fullest. Any comments, questions, tips, criticisms (constructive please) are greatly accepted and appreciated!
-Indoor (closet flower nightly)/outdoor (natural sun daily). Havent had any trouble with heat so far, on account of extreme effort to avoid it. Because I am in the south, and I started late spring/early summer, I was able to give her around 13-15 hours of sunlight every day before I switched to 12/12.
-Had springtails which had no negative effects as of yet (And they seem hard to avoid with a good organic soil mix). Had a VERY brief bug situation (thips or mites) but either way, I have an organic bug spray which is AWESOME and after one treatment I haven't seen ANY... I highly recommend the spray if you have any bug trouble...hit me up and I will give you the recipe/instructions. Also, I check my plants VIGOROUSLY so I noticed the first few bugs immediately which helps a ton. I use it on my vegetable garden as well.
-The soil mix held water too well, didn't have enough perlite but, she is gulping water now that she's in flower so over water isn't an as much of an issue as it was earlier. Next time will, I add more perlite. Had a tiny bit of nute burn (time release, I know, I know..but theyre timed to run out perfectly so the last two weeks of flower will be clean) on account of watering every week or so for a while but, literally a few tips on a few older leaves which has not spread at all since I've been able to water every 3-5 days.
-Incase it was a PH or deficiency, added organic coffee grounds (PH is a steady 6.5 at the moment) and now while in flower an organic eggshell fertilizer for Cal/Mag. Havent seen any new hot tips or spread from old ones.
All in all shes done very well. I mentioned all the negatives to see if anyone has any tips on anything i may have missed, but for the most part she is very green, growing fast/well, and staying right on schedule. The problems have made up a small percentage of the grow, found early and fixed. I have experience growing gardens...just never cannabis. Most of what I know has translated nicely. The album has pics!
She's def a sativa dominant strain...pretty sure it was a kush. The latest pics are from 2 weeks into flower. Startin to look sexy. About 5 weeks or so left to flower! Wish me luck!
