    This is my second go at growing. First grow was utter disaster, with hydroponics. Conditions were poor. Very minimal amount of air going into the res. So now i'm going coco coir to try to get things rolling for cheap. I received the coir from a friend that works at a nursery and it might be mixed up already,either that, but i know it has fertilizer in it.

    Lights are: (Currently) 2 42watters and 2 23 watters. I have Two more 42 watters and another 23 watter for when plants get bigger.


    Top two small plants are Keralas. 3 days from sprout.
    One in same dish is a Blue mystic from the hydro set-up thats been the same for like a week now but dont want to throw it out just incase it does come around.
    To the right (the big one) Is another blue mystic which basically was cloned from the other one, when the branch broke off. Thats the branch of course. Nice and Strong.
    Bottom left is Royal Queens Power Flower. 2 days sprouted.
    Bottom right, is another blue mystic thats slow in popping through due to being in a dry part of the napkin during germing (not so dry so still have hope)
    Also being germinated at the moment is a White Widow (Auto)
    And another Blue mystic. 
    Lets see how it goes this time around!!

    I have AN 3 part system, bud candy, root sensizyme (AN) and thats it for nutes but i want to go organic so will look for amendments soon as i get some flow in.

    Main problem i had last grow was heat issues and not enough air going through res. I have set up a veg chamber (this box lol) for the vegging plants until they are around a foot tall than will be thrown into flower. or might just make a bigger box if i want to keep them vegging for longer.

    Thanks for your time and i will be posting here when updates seem appropriate.
    might of been a dick kind of on my last grow journal, but i was headed somewhere very unpleasant, so i apologize.

    Thanks for reading and hope you enjoy!!

    New box. All plants looking very healthy and growing steadily. Except one kerala. Leaves droop and it has brown spots through the middle of the leaves. It was planted same day as the other kerala and the other one is perfect so im wondering what could it be?
    I've been feeding 350 ppm of nutes. Ph'd water. but still droops. Lmk what you guys think.
     
    i'll get close ups of all the plants in a bit.
     
  4. Just took a look at the other Kerala and seems to be starting to brown in the middle too and the tip of the first set of leaves seems white. 
    Should i seperate them from the rest of the plants incase its an infestation of some sorts? 
    I seen a red gnat flying around in there the other day, but hasnt been back.

  9. Nearly a month later and barely any progress with the crew. minus the flowering blue mystic.
    Have had them all on 12/12 for a month and now have thrown all except the flowering blue mystic under 24/0 to promote growth.
    i know i stunted the kerala and power flower when i let the containers dry out and caused first set of leaves to die, but could that still be the cause for slow growth? or is it the lack of aeration. 
    i never overwater(very careful about that)
    Here's pics. LMK what you guys think.

    Just started giving them nutes Last week. They seem to like it.
     
  10. And also got a little over a cubic foot and a half of mixed up coco coir with all organic amendments and stuff. Letting it cook for a month than will be using for the next batch of hell-raisers! Thanks for your time!
     
  11. All of your pots are short on soil. Fill tgem bitches up. And clear plastic is bad for roots. Black! Looks over nuted to me. Should have waitied longer until switching to 12/12. 6-8 weeks from seed in a general time sex can be decided. Then flip

    grower of the goodz
     
  12. First pic is how the room sits. All plants on 24/0 except blue mystic. BM is 2 weeks mayb 3 and alrready hairs are turning red as you can see in the pictures.
    The WW flowered super small,still going. And have two keralas and a power flower all doing okay bt super stunted growth because they had nowhere to go. New all organic mixed pots, so lets see how that goes. Any ideas 'sup with the BM?

  15. Lifted the light and Seems to be a little bit of Sulfur difficient in my new soil.But seem to be getting things dialed in. Slowly but surely. You cant really gobackwards. You can only grow forward. Ambition is key!
     
  16. Might have a sulfur or Mag lockout issue. Rust colored spots and yellowing of older growth leaves. Any ideas? Bump
    *pics in a little bit*

  19. Seen rust spots progress over night so I flushed them. I didnt let the soil "cook" for a full month so that can be the issue.
    Going to mix up some nutes for flowering plants. Than just wait.
