I’m DEE. I fool around with my name some. Lol
I’ve been trying to improve upon my “grower’s talent” the last couple years. I started with autos but it’s been over a year since I grew one.
I’d like to think I’m a MUCH better grower now.
I was gonna grow 2 seeds in airpot starters and try for small, but the genetics from Crossbone Genetics look amazing!!!! So I have given up my Veg space to grow 2 of their autos.
I’ll start in the airpot starters I won in the CCFC NYGC and finish in 3 gallons airpots also from my win!!!
my tent is 20” X 36” X 5’3” and the ventilation is inside.
I think I’m being a little greedy with 2 autos in a small space but my first grow ever, was 4 autos in an even smaller space (2x2).
im hoping to engage, learn and have fun with everyone, and impress the heck out of myself with these plants. Lol.
L
et’s Grow!!
Happy 4/20. I’ll be gone for the day so here we go.
12:41am I dropped my 2 seeds in shot glasses with tap water.
EC was 0.2. pH to 6.0
i use RO water for the grow. S
o every time I water or feed I add 0.3 EC of Calmag
I guess, 27-28 hours after wetting them, they were both still floating with tails.
I sprinkled some dynamoco on them and put them in peat in starter airpots and going under 24 hours for now.
when they have a few leaves I’ll switch to 18-6. I strongly believe in rest. (20-4 isn’t too bad imho. Lol)
Now that I think of it, I should have taken 2 more pictures. They both came up yesterday. 1 in the morning the other at night.
Today I helped them both with their helmets. I used a spray bottle just a bit. Came back and used like a toothpick and my finger to help.
I also, very gently put a few pinches of peat around their necks.
Tomorrow I’m taking the dome off.
Moved from living room into the tent.
Light is now 180W LED instead of 18W T5.
the light is at 20% so about 36W.
They will now start to get rest. 20-4
I try to put it in gently when I’m too filling but I always seems to get a bit on the when they are small.
i’ve been misting them gently up until now with RO water with the recommended dose of clone X solution.
yesterday I gave them the first watering where I saturated their cups for the first time. We’ll see what happens.
I think the app on my fancy phone says my PPFD is 190
Hopefully tomorrow they will go into #3 airpots, their final home.
so far it’s just been RO and CloneX solution. I’ll start adult move once I pot them up.
Put some worm castings and a bit of bokashi in the mix and mycoS stuff on the roots. Into #3 and hookup my my environmental controls. Lol. (There’s also a phot guest hanging out for a couple weeks. )
2 days ago I pinched the tops for whatever that’ll be worth later.
I took lower nodes and gave them their first feeding. I used some RAW Grow and some microbes. Microbial mass. pH was 5.9. (A drop low) EC. 1.6. (A drop high)
I mixed up 2 litres of nutes on the 10th. They only took half. I gave them the other half on the 12th.
I just took these pictures….
then I did this….
I’m sorry, I’m not in a great mood.
I will survive. Both of them might.
CROSSBONE, I believe are some strong auto genetics.
for our viewing pleasure….
I tried to train too aggressively and too low. She was too heavy and broke. I tried to tape her up, that didn’t work.
Yesterday I gave them a good feeding at 1.5 EC and 6.4 pH
I tried to push open the little one to have a look, and she snapped again I’m leaving them alone, hoping to get a harvest Lol
I guess we are flowering. At least the healthier of the 2.
I fed yesterday EC 0.7. pH 6.0. (Nutes recommend RAW)
