What's up Weed Nerds! Hope all is well in your world. I know things are crazy right now, but even though things are bad, it still does not mean I have to be down. In fact I am up! So happy with all my blessings. Especially happy that I am able to grow my own medicine. I know I always say this, but that's my purpose. I am not going to stop posting to block chain, my goal is to help others start doing the same. Its not hard. Growing good weed is another story though, lol. But trying to grow the best is fun within itself. Trial and error, reading, watching videos, listening to podcasts, etc. etc. So next time you see some bomb bud and wish that you could grow it yourself, don't think about it, do it.
So recently I just purchased a 4 foot x 4 foot grow tent, that is 80 inches high. My previous tent is a 2.5 foot x 2.5 foot that is 62 inches high. I was amazed on how much space it actually was after I set it up. Now I really have to step up my game. Luckily I already had a 390 CFM inline fan. But now I need more lighting. So I will be stacking up my crypto until I can afford the light I need for this space. Until then I will just use the two lights I have.
My White Grape Auto flowers from BIF Beans where very happy to move out of that closet. I am on Day 33, and have I learned a lot about Autos. All the hard way too. Just how I learned they do not like to be transplanted, I have also learned that some soils, like Ocean Forest from Fox Farm is to hot.
So this is Nitrogen toxicity. Since Autos grow fast, and go into different cycle's of life in a matter of days, having a soil that is to hot will slow down the growth. So if growth is slowed down before flower, you are stuck with a stunted plant. This is crucial information , and I am very happy to have learned this. Yes it would of been something to know before hand, but this is how I learn. Trial and error. Hands on.
My remedy to fix this was to just use plain water. Now on the 2nd week of flower, they are starting to look so much better. Next up I will give them some bloom fertilizer. Which is high in Phosphorus.
Even though this is a setback, I am still very pleased with the White Grape. I wont have a huge plant, but I will still get buds. Which is why I wanted to grow the Auto in the first place. To see how the towers are. Only after growing them out, is when I learned on how fun they are since they are fast growers. They present a cool challenge. I already cant wait to crack a few more seeds, and see if I can get a monster Auto. Which is going to be in a few days, or maybe I will drop the rest of my WG in some water tonight. How else will I fill up this 4x4? Peace, and to my fellow Americans, Happy Thanksgiving!!
