So just bucked the stems. I left 6 in tacked. Total on the ILGM GirlScout Cookies Extreme 4.17 OZ with subtracting the weight of the bucked stems +4g. Will bag it in Grove at 3.5. Shit! I TAKE IT ALL BACK. Nice Trichs, Red hairs galore, Nice plant!!
O’h! Got this off the Blueberry and Amnesia Haze…
Tried to find the pic in the tray , (think I deleted with a bunch of weed pics) but chefs will know. 14g the finest moon dust.
I think I’m in trouble with myself… What Should I Do??? 
70’s early 80’s before my time. Our good stuff mid-late 80’s came out of Hawaii, CA, OR. I was a lucky boy. But, DAMN this shit now is insane! I cleaned the Boys bong this weekend and I would’ve been able to sell the bowl resin in the day. Praise the Lord!!!
So in need of seedling advice. For some reason 3 of 5 cups are still WET. Holes poked, rock in the second cup. COM SB soil only. My thought is, I should probably gingerly transplant to the bigger pot with drier soil? I have roots out the bottom holes.
@ChittyChittyBangin @merlin44 @kaptain3d @ @PurpNGold74
Yep. Transplant.
Done. Thanks for the insight!!
I would love to offer some profound insight, but I have never dealt with a plant that severely stunted. I will be interested in how this comes out.
Edit: The only thing that comes to mind is that low temperature can certainly slow growth. I keep mine at 80 - 85 F.
Concur
Pre-size receiving dirt hole for the cup seedling.
Dust the hole with root grow hormone.
and transfer seedling. Note Wet soil cups give good complete soil transfer, when inverted with gravity stop. Don’t forget to do the Vulcan hand sign, gripping seedling cup plant.
I recently salvaged a plant (one foot tall) but in soil that never dried.
Repotted the 5-gal bag by knocking half the root ball off (clay). and re-dressing with FFOF/FFHF. Brought her indoors and a month later, she is fine.
Show your stunted plant? could be a thread for all.
I got plenty of stunted plants., too.
Thanks @merlin44. Temp is hard to bring up to the 80’s. I have the tent in my office and on the other side of the wall (outside) it’s 95-100 with 60-80 RH. Love the South this time of year. That said AC is rocking in this house.
The girls, pic of one above, are only 10 days old. I don’t think they’re stunted yet but they would surely die if I didn’t move them to drier dirt. We’ll see what the new week brings.
Day 18 on the Bannanna Purple Punch Autos. Have growth, but it seems a bit slow, probably the temp. One of them has some funky canoeing and reaching for the light. Right at 15 DLI under the domes.
My plants must think they live in Alaska.
They don’t grow under 70 degrees.
We just hit 70F, July 1 , 2024, Summer?
Yes exactly what i do with the PPMs. I feed at 1000 PPM up to 1200 in flower. Ive not had any issues feeding 1200 ppm with runoff at 2000-23000 ppm. I get big buds. Is this too much fertilizer for my cannabis?
Marty I believe you’re using too much nutrients. Rather than a 2000-3000 PPM runoff (by feeding at 1200 PPM) you’ll be pleasantly surprised that you can achieve the same results by feeding around 800 and trying to get your runoff around 1,000 PPM.
You’re not overfeeding as the plant will only uptake what it needs. But you are throwing your money away.
However there does come a time when you give too many nutrients that they will block each other out creating a disaster in the root zones.
Yes, thank you. I’ve been struggling with this for awhile now. When i mix the required amounts of Jacks 321 i get 1000 ppms in 1 gallon of water. So to drop the ppms do i just add more water to the 1 gallon to dilute down to 800 ppm?
I have memory problems due to a head injury. I was assulted by the police. Yes, they liked my head i guess. Sorry…
Hi Marty hope all is well. Technically your goal is to feed your plant with enough nutrients as stated above to run off 1,000 PPM after you feed them. (The water that comes out and you catch it after feeding)
You are 100% correct. If you are mixing 1,000 ppms of Jack’s then yes continue to slowly add more water until your PPM drops to your desired strength (700-800 or whatever’s applicable)
It can take a couple feeds until you actually meet your magic number the simplest thing to remember is…
Example
Let’s say you mixed your feed this morning to 800 ppms of Jack’s. You slowly water your plant and you cut your runoff. You measure your runoff and it says 1400 ppms.
Well what this means is they have slightly too much nutrients so the next feed you would drop it down to 700 ppms.
Now you’ve mixed your new batch at 700 ppms you feed your plant slowly you collect your runoff. You measure it and it says 1100 ppms
This is fantastic so what you would do since those numbers are good you would feed your plant the next time 700 ppms
If the ppms are higher you feed less next time if the ppms are lower you add a little more.
I personally never go up or down more than 100 ppms at a time when adding or subtracting (especially adding)
Keep in mind when obtaining a 1000 PM runoff I allow a +/- of 150ppm before I change anything.
I hope this better explains it.
Be sure to keep a document of daily feedings both intake and outtake it’s more of a daily Bible of record-keeping. It also helps you get familiar with your numbers. It’s all about the numbers.
Since you’re not using a chelated brand of nutrients you make sure that you pH your water going in and documented as well coming out to maintain the adequate pH level for nutrient uptake.
After a slow start due to lower AC temps inside and the damn southern heat index outside these little girls are little but strong. I’ve only given them 6.5 PH H2O. Today marks day 37 from sprout and just today starting to see some hedgehogs. I gave them a slight trim and scratched in some B&B and worm castings. I upped the H2O PH to 6.7 PH. I have managed the VPFD well keeping it in the desired range per the charts. That Pro Controler is cool.
The 4 in the back is the 420 Fast Buds Banana Purple Punch and the smaller in the front is ILGM Girl Scout Cookies Extreme.
Looks good… you would’ve thought i would’ve went with the top dressings for the COM SB but i am stuck on Jacks 321. It probably would be alot easier just to grab the top dressings instead of changing soil to Bar Harbor but the BH is better for Jacks 321 and i have alot of it. Sorry for posting in your journal. I didn’t realize what i was doing.
Into the first true week of flower. Gave them 4 gallons of tea between the 5 plants. PPFD is cranked to 850 on 18 hours. They love their Sun God!
Here we are Day 66 from sprout. Week 2 or 3 of full flower. I can’t keep track. Dose of plain water ph at 6.9 this week but noticed what looks to be a P or K deficiency. Let me know if ya think differently. Threw in a tsp of FF Open Sesame to a gallon and ph at 6.9. Added 2 solo cups to each plant the next day. The automated setting on the ProContolrer is working well keeping the VPD right where it should be. Other than that they are chugging along.
I should add the 4 FB420 Banana Purple Punch in the back are in flower. The GSCX in the front is just starting preflower.
