KinSEDC's v2.1 Glue Gelato Auto Grow

They make a trellis that attaches to the reservoir. You can also attach some self adhesive hooks to the reservoir as anchor points then tie off her branches :+1:t2:

i don’t know if this plant is going to get big enough to scrog but that’s interesting… didn’t see that on their site will have to check it out. and it’s not like i’m ever going to take this plant out once it’s in it’s final home.

getting flecks on the new growth now, too. at least it’s not the same scary spots as in the beginning. can the start of a calmag deficiency look like this? trying to think if i’ve hit these with the copper or h202. not sure. i’m not seeing anything on the microscope. tomorrow will drain the res and move her back into the final 2x2 home and i can probably peak at the roots if they’ve made it down that far yet.

I run 7-10ml of CaliMag per 2.5 gallon refill with my water. I had Mag deficiencies on some hydro grows a couple years ago and have used CM ever since…

Are you still juicing your res with nutes or PH water only? Are you running 6.0 PH in the reservoir to allow that drift to behave?

it’s just water only. this plant has only been in there maybe two weeks now?

it’s finally settled down at 6.5. you think i should be lower? i added some calmag and it dropped it to 6.3.

I would hold off if you are maintaining 6.5. If it gets all ā€œcreepyā€, you can go down to 6.

I really want your plant to do well …

Glue Gelato Auto: Start Week 8 Update

6 gallon Octopot
Coast of Maine soil with 40% perlite
water ph’d to 6.5 with calmag in the res
2x2 tent
AC infinity fan
HLG 135w

the big news here is that this GGel was moved into it’s (hopefully) forever home in the 2x2. i really wasn’t thinking when i put it in the 2x4 ā€œtemporarilyā€. i drained the reservoir with a pump- SO glad i had that. moving it wasn’t too terrible but potentially disastrous with a trip. couldn’t really see the roots hanging out the bottom but pulling this soggy thing out of the pot and trying to look below wasn’t easy solo. wiped down the tents while everyone was in transit.

she’s starting to show some pistils. i would think she’d start flowering any minute given the time, but i’m grateful she hasn’t yet given her small size. she also really started to smell last week. don’t really want to hook the filter up yet with the humidifier still in use full force.

i think i’m going to start adding some nutes to the res soon. trying to decide what to use. coast of maine has their recommended supplement but i’m not using anything called Liquid Squid… looking at earth juice or roots organics. i’m not sure which is more appropriate for a res like this. i’d really like to give Seablast a shot but i’ve found ONE person online who’s used it.

haha yeah i mostly took my cue from you. i’m a super smeller as it is. i wouldn’t survive it sans murderous partner. plus my ā€œgrow roomā€ is my bedroom. i’m having a hard enough time tolerating the soil smell.

Jesus Wept… Your bedroom. Yeah, not so much … there is zero chance of sleep with that stank…

Gonna run FF Coco Loco and add chunky perlite next grow. I have a bunch of GH nutes so I will run an advanced Flora Series plus some additives… :metal::slightly_smiling_face:

looking forward to that.

i’m thinking about the 3 gallon next round. can fit more in a tent. these 6 gals are huge. i’d also like to try it in coco, just need to figure out ahead which nutes i’d want to use- but need to decide that soon for this grow, too.

actually i just noticed on their site that CocoLoco is supposedly already at the perfect 40% ratio.

Decided on my Spring grow - Durban Poison, Super Silver Haze, and Crystal. Might change out the Durban for Super Skunk. Might grow them all and skip my summer grow. The seeds are sitting here waiting :+1:t2:

The SSH is one of my favs :+1:t2: I am trying to grow every Sativa they sell.

The Crystal is good but hammers me to the couch… definitely not a morning smoke

i was trying to trade for a SSH for this current grow and i’ve been trying to grow amnesia haze for a year. i traded for a few of those seeds but at six weeks the one i dropped is only an inch tall :poop:

yeah that’s the northern lights in there. i love it before bed.
