[swampman]

Ma Friend that is a very large.lady
She probably will be budding reallyfastsoon but these pla.ts can eat lots nutrients and should be feeding on Cal/Mag pretty helthy

She doent seem to hungry tho so maybe it willbloom.very fastsoon
I grewone to 110 days beforeit was ready

Great . Smoke too longof an Auto tho

Thanks for that, SM - I appreciate the in-put!

I'll go with half-strength Ca/Mg+ then - and hold the Bio Bud for the next watering - take it slow until she gets her feet beneath her, again.

And I agree about the length required - I didn't do my research, very well - as I had hoped for a quicker one for my first try!
However - that said, I'm not at all disappointing - I'm going to learn some good stuff as I try to keep her happy longer.

Interesting read y'all. :gthumb:

The lady continues to hang in there:

DAY 78


She continues to dry her pot every three days - and has had a drink of PH 6.5 water and a feed of half strength Bio Bud and half strength CaMg+ since the last update. The flowers continue to develop - but ever so slowly.

In my eyes, it doesn't appear significantly hungry - but am I missing something?

I believe I may have slowed her down with another ham-handed noob stunt, though (my next journal will be entitled "How not to grow Bud" - ha ha!.

After I flushed her to help with the Nitrogen toxicity - I worried that the very wet soil and lower leaves might be a mold or mildew risk - and set the fan a little too high and a little too close - resulting in burned leaves on three of the bud sites.



This happened a few days ago, now - and the damage hasn't progressed, but I would imaging this type of stress isn't conducive to sending her into flower making overdrive!
Lesson learned - less is often more!

Quick question for the membership, if I might.

How often do you calibrate your PH device?

I calibrated the unit when I received it (at the beginning of this grow) - but haven't since (as only two calibration sachets were provided - a higher end and a lower end). The last couple of days, it has been reading my tap water as higher than usual - and I'm wondering how often I should be checking it.

Thanks in advance!

weekly and clean monthly. you can purchase the calibration solutions just about anywhere online

I do this every 2 weeks but 4 weeks would be ok:Cool:

Thanks you both very much for that - I thought I might be pushing it, a bit.

Off to the local aquarist store...!

I checked my PH tool with 4.0 and 7.0 solutions - it only measured 0.1 out on each solution - but the difference it made in measuring my tap water was more than 0.1.

I'm glad I looked into it - it might explain some of the problems I've been having. Just to err on the safe side, I flushed one more time with water PH'ed to 6.5 (as measured by my newly calibrated PH meter - ha ha!).

I had to leave town for three days after the flush - but the lady looked as though it had done her some good, when I checked upon return.

She had pushed out more pistols - straightened out most of her claws - and she had definitely added some scent to the air. However, she had also added an inch or so to most of her shoots - which would be unusual were she about to burst into flower, wouldn't it? Her bud sites are still looking "wispy to non-existant" at best.

I returned to work, today - so will only be able to watch from afar for the next three weeks. I have to admit to being a little disappointed that I wasn't able to witness her progress a little more rapidly, while I was home from work - but it is what it is.

So - today is day 85 above ground - and she really hasn't done much in the last month or so.

Realistically - is she still a viable plant? I will pursue this grow until there is an obvious conclusion, one way or the other - but I can't help but be curious as to whether experienced growers think she may still produce flowers like the ones I see in other grow journals on this site.
Or has my bumbling doomed her to a life that won't see her fulfill her potential?

I'm just curious, as I haven't run across any grow journals on this site that feature a plant of this age that is so far behind the curve, production-wise.
Thank you in advance for your insight and thoughts.
