First real grow (after 35 years of smoking)

[Rorschach]

@mrming I need any advice you can give me about the Bubblegum x Fat Hog, have to do a grow out so I'd like not to mess up everything ;)
Of course I'm reading carefully this diary to find useful infos in the meanwhile

@Rorschach - She has give zero problems or issues, so far, ive fed her quite high nutes and all still looks good, i will get some photos of her when i get them out of the tent to 'trim and bend' a little.

06th September - No food today
07th September - No food today
08th September - Fed 5ML CANNA A&B, 3ML TERPINATOR, 3ml CANNA BOOST, 3ML SUPERDRIVE, Mixed in 4l - 1600ml Each for BUBBLEGUM X FAT HOG & GHCHEESE.
Fed GORILLA GLUE - 3ML OVERDRIVE, 1ML BIG BUD - 1600ML.

So today GG has had overdrive as I think 22nd September is looking good for preparing for harvest.

Hi anyone
my humidity is 80% overnight with lights off??? i have a dehumidifier and 2 fans in groom,
any ideas???

here a reupdate as last update was lost in upgrades.

09th September - No food today
10th September - No food today
11th September - So Day 34 of flower for Bubblegum x Fat Hog & GHCheese, and Day 66 from seed on the Rouge Gorilla Glue Auto.
Not had to do anything really to any of them apart from bend leaves back, took a couple off.
Tonight I have fed them All 1 Litre of Plain Water.
Then ill see how they look in the morning, to decide if/when to add a bit of nute feed.
(Im now preparing GG for harvest time as I think 22nd sept is going to be Final Day for her)
Will wait for 20% amber or maybe a little more, i like couchlock vibe.
Now put a small dehumidifier in tent as Humidity says 70% (before watering) temps 22 so cant understand why its increased from 50% to 70%.??

Looks good buddy. What are night temps? You using 4 inch clip on fans for circulation? If so, id say get something a little bigger unless they put out a surprising amount of wind. I have tried a couple 4 inch fans and got 4 for my mates little grow box because they're quite weak. What extractor fan are you using? Can you turn it up a bit? (*The leaves look a little dark and glossy to me, could be a bit of nitrogen toxicity. Maybe drob back on the feed some. Please bear in mind, im a rookie myself so you may want to wait for someone else to chip in on that.*)
You're doing well. Good job.

Hi thanks, temps go between 18c-24c day or night, and although its very
easy to control temps when lights are on, its just the 12 hours of dark it seems
to have risen - As GG turned out to be an auto shes at day 73 now, so i wll be chopping her
in by end of september, so that will help lowering humidity.

And yes GG some glossiness and all green, i have used quite a few nutes and additives.
But now she will be on plain water only.

i have a 4 inch extractor and fox carbon filter, but i havent used them as the tent and the room its
in is well ventilated and the smell isnt getting around the rest of the house so havent used it.

Hope that helps

Hows the humidity?

Hi herbalist,
All perfect now steady around 50% and temps 20-25c, and plants look
like they are liking the fresh air.

16th September - No food today
17th September - No food today
18th September - Fed BUBBLEGUM & GHCHEESE - 5ML CANNA A&B, 5ML TERPINATOR, 4ml CANNA BOOST, 2ML SUPERDRIVE, 2ML RHIZO, 2ML CANNAZYME. 2L Each.
Fed Gorilla Glue - 2ML TERPINATOR, 2ML CANNA BOOST. 2L.
Attached Extractor & Carbon Filter outside tent with duct going into tent.

So its day 75 for Gorilla from seed, and day 40 of flower for Bubblegum and GHCheese.
Then smells from the buds when i touch them is amazing, im quite shocked,
Gorilla has a definate gluey smell, and GHCheese smells exactly same as the cheese i used by
years ago from a grower in good old Coventry.

Im ready to start the process for the next grow, which will be 2 x Gelato 41 Autos (sponsered grow for here)
a Growers Choice Bruce Banner 3 and London Seed centre Critical Jack OG.
Will be floating seeds in next few days so i can get them done by Christmas.

Heres a few quickly taken pics from today
