Sweet Seeds [Thor] Dark Devil - Sweet Seeds - Soil

There are 5 additional autos germed and in soil waiting to sprout. (2 DD, 3 ER)

I do have a question. The 5 will sprout within days. Among the photosensitive plants there is 1 that will not be ready to go by the 25th. It is a massive vertically scrogged Bluechem, (sativa dom) that will take up to an additional week and a half. Which wasn't considered when germing these.

Will it be okay to run the 5 autos under 12/12 light schedule for the first 2-3 weeks then switch to 20/4 after the bluechem comes down?
 
After much research it appears that a good start is paramount for autos to reach their full potential. There is 2 choices here. 1 is allow the Bluechem time to finish which would subject the new autos to 12/12 for the first portion of their life. or 2 cut the bluechem early and give the new autos a solid light schedule of 20/4 early as possible.

It has been decided that the BC will be cut early to try to give the autos the best start possible.

That means the next cycle will be a full auto run.

The set up will change and the details will be included in the next update.

~Thanks for stopping by.

Looks stretched, I'm guessing due to the 12/12 light schedule since seed. 20/4 light schedule started a week ago and will stay that way. Leaves appear to have nitrogen claw. (Nitrogen overdose) It has been flushed and given just bloom nutes that contain no nitrogen. Micro will be reintroduced but instead of 1 - 2 micro to bloom ratio, 1 - 3 will be used instead.

The next set up is going to be a 600w vertical scrog with 5 plants. 3 Dark devil and 2 Easy ryder. A cylindrical screen will be installed. This will be a full auto only run so the light schedule through out will be 20/4.

It was flushed and no nitrogen has been added. Only P, K, and calimagic. The claw hasn't gone away. Not sure if will go away after everything is adjusted or if it is permanent deformity. Will reintroduce micro at a 1 to 3 ratio to bloom. Liquids going in will be PH adjusted more accurately from here on out. The PH calibration solution is contaminated and it is possible it is giving a bad readings. New PH calibration solution to calibrate meter will be put to use. Perhaps the PH is the contributing factor to the leaf claw.
 
Hey man looking good keep up the good work. Whats you ph like roughly? And what Veg and bloom nutes are you using and how much before you got the N claw?
I had it last grow and i didnt even bother flushing as the plant looked grand besides the claw. Just lower you amounts of N by a good bit and keep it there till you see it stop and then adjust accordinly.
Hope that helps man, grow karma sent you way dude.

Smells like spicy sandalwood.

It has only been given Jungle Juice bloom and water since. Claw is still there but she is working through it. A soil probe to read root zone ph will be purchased some time this week. Water going in is 6.5. Tap water comes out as 320ppm. RO water will be used on the next 4.

A photo has been included of the 2 Dark Devils and 2 Easy Ryders. There is an additional Dark Devil that is about a week behind the rest that isn't in the photo. They are 19 days old from first sprout. The large burly ones in the back are the Easy Ryders. The 2 in the front are Dark Devils. The bulb is set at 400w with a 20/4 light schedule. The on temps are 80 F, off temps are 70 F.

This has appeared. Not sure why. Vigorous growth and they look good, aside from the spots. A lot of research online put in and looking at leaf charts and various books. Yet, still not sure.

They are 26 days old today. In 3 gallon pots of FFoF being fed 450ppm 1 part micro to 1.25 part bloom and a small dash of Calcium magnesium mixed into RO water. Liquid going in is PHed 6.3. The soil probe that was bought is worthless. The light schedule is 20/4. The on temps are 77-79 off temps are 67-70. The distance from the light is featured in the last update.

That is all the information... maybe someone can add some insight.
