Zampano's Second Grow 💨

WATERING

Watered Bushy Girl.
I feel like she’s not nearly as green as she should be.
The pictures i post of her arent necessarily true (my phone auto-edits, i think. such a Catfish move) but to the eye she just seems…not yellow, but not green either. When sitting next to Tall Girl you can really see the difference in color.
I thought it was nitrogen but i really dont know.

I increased the Cal-Mag a couple weeks back and that didnt do the trick.

At any rate she seems mostly happy so ill try not to stress it too much.

Numbers and stuff

Today she is 8 weeks, 1 day old.
Today marks the start of her 3rd week in flower.

IN 783 / 6.50ph
RUNOFF 874 / 6.40ph

(Previous Runoff was 909 / 6.40ph)

I think im going to increase all additives to 4ml for future feeds. That should get me where i need to be.

TRIM

Trimmed a couple small branches I was to :chicken::poop: to touch last week.

Rather than going up to 4 ml on additives I would go to 7ml - 7.5ml on micro grow bloom. It’s more beneficial. (If it were me)

Good Morning Grow Daddy. :sun_behind_small_cloud:

As per your request on the phone you stated for the 2nd time that you’re having issues with one of the girls getting excessive yellowing throughout the entire plant due to nitrogen deficiency

If possible, if you get a chance to pull her from the tent today and take a full size picture of her out of the tent and post it for me. Thank You

Based on your overall description of said girl, below is a nitrogen rich feed that should take care of your lack of nitrogen issue. This recipe is for milliliters per gallon

1 gal tap Water
Cal/mag 4ml
Micro 10ml
Grow (don’t use)
Bloom 6ml
B-52 4ml
Voodoo Juice 3ml
Bud candy 3ml

This will definitely take care of your nitrogen deficiency. After this feed returned to your regular AB feeding schedule for the exception of Cal/mag you’ll replace Cal mag with 200ppm of Epson salt (just to be sure we got it all) :victory_hand:

Totally understand :victory_hand:

Pouring down buckets of rain today. Not a very good day to do anything but watch TV I’ve been wanting to harden off these plants but every day it’s either freezing cold or pouring rain. Maybe this is why I can’t get into the garden until mid-may :laughing:

3/10 Watered Bushy Girl

I feel like her leaves are getting lighter and lighter. Not at an alarming rate but enough to raise an eyebrow. This has been going on for about 2 weeks now.

I had a conversation with @Lostgirl last night and we set up a game plan. Hopefully this will clear things up.

This girl is just massive and i want her to be taken care of.

All the land that we cleared in the fall has made for some wonderful new patches of land to grow food on. We planted many, many, many corn yesterday as well as squash and many beans.
Tomorrow i get to transplant 40 tomatoes, and another 20 in a week.

Life is awesome. Sometimes.

@Lostgirl

I went ahead and ordered the supplement we discussed last night, should be here tomorrow.

With her next feed (likely Sunday) i will implement the feed you posted above which will hopefully help her out a bit.

Here’s some pics for you. I still say my phone auto-edits photos, they aren’t entirely accurate.

This is nothing like I expected it to be. This is light yellowing periodically in my opinion. The feed above that I posted early this morning will absolutely take care of this issue :victory_hand:

Or is the picture above not the girl in question?

No that’s her.
Like i said its getting lighter slowly over the course of the last week. i just dont want it to become a full blown situation.
When cimpared to the other plant it really shows how much lighter she is.

Its nothing to be concerned about yet, but could be in the future.

That one over watered tomato didn’t make it. I ended up letting her go to bone dry and just gave her a fish shit and hydrogen peroxide 20 mil feed. If there is a drop of life left (I highly doubt it) she’ll show some difference by tomorrow morning.

If not, on the other gardening thread I’m going to have a small Zoom funeral service for her with a special guest appearance by Reverend Al Sharpton and Ronald McDonald

She looked pretty rough, i really didn’t think there was hope for her.

At least you started another seed. Itll take awhile before shes ready, but its something.

We hung cattle panel trellises half the day for our tomatoes. So. Many. Tomatoes.

I can only imagine 60 plus tomato plants. Everything under the lights are getting so big and really need to go outside. Stuff needs hardened off so I can get them at least outside during the day. It started raining at 6:00 a.m. yesterday morning (Friday) it’s 2:00 a.m. Saturday morning and it’s still raining and has not stopped since Friday.

Yeah I kind of knew she wasn’t going to make it. I’ve got some of them roam style tomatoes that popped up last night. The new one should pop next week. And yes, everything will need to stay inside that’s new for at least a month but there’s still plenty of tomatoes to wear the few straddled behind aren’t going to matter much :blush:

It’s bad that I’m making rookie mistakes before I even get outside :joy:

Spring Fling girlies enjoying a nice sunny day outside.

Tonight will be their first night out (low of 62°), back inside for a couple cooler nights, then outside full time.

Our night temps are steadily climbing into the 60s. Inching closer every day.

Love it! :heart: You’re doing a good job bro

Thank you :grin:
I’m nervous as hell about leaving them out tonight. I feel like an overprotective parent sending their kid to school for the first time.

We potted a bunch of campanion plants today (lemon balm, peppermint and yarrow) that i started up just for these ladies, they are the body guards tonight, along with a little spray of BT.

I just finished doing some LST work on them, itd been a week or so. Man they’ve gotten big…and stinky.

I’ll be checking on then constantly :joy:

Just take note first thing tomorrow morning how they responded to the overnight cold. If they look bad you might want to consider waiting for a 10° difference before you leave them out. Just a thought

I dont know your conditions but currently here its 85 day and 55 night, thats 30 degrees and is typical at least in central Cal.

Soon it will be 90s and 60s then 100s and 70s, so basically always a 30 degree swing.

If cotton grows so can cannabis. I have had mine outdoors 50s and up at night and they seam to be ok. If your growing autos, well, just dont do them outdoors, they need perfection for conditions that you wont get outdoors
