Morning UK. Everyone else...shouldn't you be asleep by now???
After taking a look this morning, I'm about 90% sure that the two questionable plants are females. The stigmas are teeny tiny but I'm
pretty sure I see them emerging. That'll give me three females outta five which given the size of SSH, will be perfect for my little 400w'er. These plants grow damn fast. I don't know if it's the genetics, although this strain has a lot of hybrid vigor, but these plants grow a noticeable amount daily.
There's some burn going on on the lower leafs that look like N deficiency. Thing is, I noticed it last week and already gave a small dose of base nutrients. 200 ppm to be exact.
After a few days, instead of getting it's green color back, the leaves became even yellower and are now showing nutrient burn. So my plants are deficient but the amount of food I'm giving them isn't enough...yet the leaves burn. ((
)) You can imagine my frustration.
This leads me to believe that 1)this strain doesn't like chemical fertilizer and/or 2)I need a more pure source of Nitrogen. I've read that she prefers a rich organic soil over chemical fertilizers; I now understand why. It looks like she doesn't like to be force-fed in soil. I removed the males from the main show. I'm going to keep them so I can collect their pollen so that I can make more SSH seeds, but breeding isn't the focus of my grow. This time around, I just want to get to know her, but eventually I want to make my own SSH crosses.
The first
might be ssh x plushberry...
If I dont' fuck them up, these are going to be some really beautiful plants. Perfectly symmetrical, thin pointy leaves. Sporting that classic sativa lime-green. These are the three females I got outta 5 plant.

Plant issues
The last one you have to look at carefully. Any help/criticism is appreciated.
I got a list of shit I need to buy, but I'm stressing about how. I need-
-Piranha (beneficial fungi)
-AN Rhino Skin (Potassium silicate)
-AN Voodoo Juice
-New bulb (preferably CMH but at least a quality one like Horti)
-Quality soil like Pro-MixHP, Roots or something(keep having to settle for MG Organic Choice)
-Earthworm castings, bat guano and compost for fertilizing
-New mini-fan for the bulb (the one I have now is a pile)
-pH Up
-Fan speed controller
I pretty much need all the basic shit to have accomplish a successful, impressive grow...God help me. I'm working on it tho.
I changed the light schedule so they run at night so my updates are gonna be a day late in the UK as I'll be posting the late in the afternoon most of the time.
