Balactus - Return of the Grow Journal - Bagseed Edition.

UPDATE: DAY 20

They are looking good but I have some concerns. I feel like there is increased yellowing in the stems of the leaves as well as on one plant having minor red lines on parts of the stems. Signs of a deficiency?

As you can see I did some LST on them as well as topped one and fimmed the other. My camera zoom sucks so I won't bother trying to show where I cut but I will show growth once big enough to zoom into. I can already see 2 chutes forming on the one that was topped as well as extra growth on the fimmed one.

If you noticed I also put a piece of plexi glass in their that has surprisingly kept my temps at an even 80 or below so far has gone to 82 at most. My AC has been blasting all day also with the crazy humidity here.
Its sadly being held up by pieces of cardboard superglued to the sides supporting only 3 edges of the glass so there is some extra weight being distributed. I can already tell that it wont last. I am hoping adding tape over it will make it stick. Otherwise the grow has been going well. Only other concerns would be people snooping around. There is a little bit of a veg smell once you put your face to one and also when you first open it but then disperses. Not really too weedy, more similar to a tomato veg smell.
 
Hmm, I have my seed in a rapid rooter, put a humid top over the container and put it in the dark, trying to decide if I should put it in my box and turn the lights on, ive read doing it with lights and without lights so i dunno what to do on that :/.

Id recommend a light odor eating agent if your concerned, they are farely cheap and should keep the area smelling fine until your flowering starts, and who knows, your bagseed may not be a very strong smelling strain.

Im sure i skimmed over it earlier, but whats your nute regiment like?
 
My NL#1 has very minimal odor. Barely can smell her when you rub her leaves.

NL#2 on the other hand. I walk into the room and can smell her. She smells citrus with a very faint funk. She is out in the open and has a fan on her btw.
 
I know I am hoping for something not so smelly but who knows. Its seed from bud I bought about 3 years ago or more. I already have some Ona Block that I plan to use when the smell starts to become an issue. I already have a carbon filter in place. A couple light leaks have been spotted from tape coming undone. The air constantly blowing is just peeling the edges.
 
It may be a sulfur or nitrogen deficiency, see if this diagram will help you out since you can examine your plant closer then me.
 
She smells so good tho. I am glad I decided to veg her out a bit longer before flowering. It will give me some time to get filter.
 
I think his plant is still recovering from nute burn. I know both my plants are recovering from overwatering.. Looks like you may have over watered a bit too. kinda droopy.

How old are they now? Are you flowering already? I think I will start flowering as soon as the growth is back where I topped and fimmed them. How your lower growth look? Your pics don't do them justice.

I LST'd yesterday and today bending them down more as they keep going back up. I love seeing all the lower growth and the beginning of some lower branching.

QUESTION: The pistils, those aren't anything like the green pistil looking growth that occurs on the nodes correct? I am just wondering because there are 2 hair pairs on each node almost basically.

Nah just some LST tonight lol , I kept bending the leavings and things to give more light exposure to the lower growth. I really want them to be short and bushy.

I can't wait till I start smelling that sweet aroma. I am hoping it is controllable. Last resort is getting rid of them but I have some Ona Block thats pretty strong. If that isn't enough I'll just couple it with some of the Ona Spray. The block is linen scented.

The green spikes at the node are where the pistils or male parts will show. They grow from behind those things. Wont show sex unless plant has reached maturity or a week into 12/12

First pic is NL#1. She is two weeks above soil today. She either had a calcium deficiency or a calcium lockout do to over ferting nitrogen.

NL#2 had less nitrogen given to her, but still shows signs of an overdose. blotchy dark green on her leaves.
 
Aw you've been adding things to it? I still haven't given anything to them, I think I've just been battling with PH if anything but seems to be stable. The soil was coming out at about 6.0 but then the water going in was either 7 or above. I think it was above but seems to be balancing it somehow. Do some LST man while they are small. I didn't realize how fragile they are especially with thicker roots. They really grow. I wish I started LST while they were smaller just bending them slightly as they grew.
 
Yeah.. i saw someone else using nutes from seed and no bad affects for her. SHoulda just waited lol.

If I do any manipulation of the plant, I'll prob get a support thing.. like for tomato plants... Which my kitten decided to jump on today. :mad:

So now she is banned from the florida room as well as the basement.
 
I was just looking at the lower growth and indeed already a lower branch is there I didn't notice before. I am debating should I wait to do any top or fim on it till after the growth at the top has grown in or do it sometime soon? I am concerned it may be too much stress plus I do wanna begin flowering soon cause I know it will wanna grow.
