Done a lot of reading here and man there is a lot of Knowledge here for us all. Thanks in advance for all your help!!!
I Started germination of 6 Gelato feminized seeds. on 4/20/21
Did two in the wet paper towels, 2 in water, 2 in soil. 1 of the soil seeds never showed up. I Built a 2.5 x 2.5 x 6 Room for 1 Indoor plant and the other 4 are going outside once they get good and established. I’ve got a 1500 W LED Grow Light. Fan for circulation and a 4" fan moving air in and out. The plants are looking great, pictures attached. They are 26 days old. Watering once daily in Gallon pots. This morning I just did my first “feeding” using the 2/3 tablespoon Growtime Fertilizer per gallon of water. Do they look like the are coming along good? The temp unfortunately has been in the 65-70 degree range, PH is up around 6.7 - 7. Humidity has also been low @ 50-65 Any suggestions?
Look good but small! That meter is trash! All ya need is a moisture meter in your pot. The PH and light meter on the one you have give inaccurate measures.
Thanks for the welcome! I didn’t doubt the Plastic Gauge was crap form the get go! I’ll upgrade for sure.
Something I didn’t mention… I keep the lights on 24 hours. What are your recommendations?.
Plants look real good this morning! …
.
Well They’re 29 day old today. They look healthy as hell. Growing broader not taller…Should I start removing the lower fan leaves or is it to early? Twice a day feedings and still on 24hr Lights. I haven’t gotten a timer yet. any comments?
Well, Here’s an update in Week 7!
I lost one in week 6.
Transplanted them and they’ve been topped and thinned. Removed a good bit to expose new growth. I think they look good. PH has stayed up around 6.5-6.8 Temp has gotten to 92, fixed that and now 85-87 and 65-70. I have only used blood meal in the soil and the 2/3 tablespoon ILGM Growtime Fertilizer per gallon of water and watering lightly 2 times a day. Still 24 lights. I did get a timer! But I thought i’d wait a bit since I just transplanted them. I’ll start an 18/6 schedule. Anyone have suggestions?
Week 8 Up-Date
Am I doing more harm than good by removing all the non-essential leaves daily? Plants haven’t or don’t seem like they has stressed at all. I have performed a good bit of LST. Ran out of the ILGM GROWTIME fertilizer I was using. Have only subbed Fish Fertilizer this week. I do have some new stuff on the way. Lights are 18" away and on a 20/4 cycle. Temps range from 68-70 to 80-85 daily. PH has stayed up around 6.7 -7.0. Plants are just short of a foot tall but nice and Bushy. Nothing seems to be out of wack. I was thinking 4 more weeks of Veg the switch to flower. Please give me some advice.
I’ll Try again. Been a while since I have updated you all.
The gelato girls will start there 7th week of flower on 8/1. I double the size of my tent and added 2 more led lamps after the first week of flower. They exploded like crazy. Looking forward to an awesome yield!
