Overview

Hi All and welcome to my diary for the LA Peyote Kush Grow Off. This is my 2nd grow and im hoping to improve of what I learned during my 1st run.

I will be growing 1 plant and as above the strain I am growing for this diary is the LA peyote Kush from

5728EE13 8379 4AFE B65F 2FD33314FBBF

 

Medium

Same as my last grow I will be using the House & Garden Bat Mix Special soil.

image

Size of Grow Area and number of plants

I will be growing this plant along with one other inside a Green Box 0.6m x 1.2m x 1.5m Tent (2' x 4' x 5')

image

Lighting

I will be growing this plant under the Mars SP250 LED light.

image

Extraction

I will be using a standard 4" inline fan attached to a 4" Carbon Filter venting outside the tent through ducting. I will also be running a small length of ducting into the bottom half of my tent to act as a passive intake.

Pot Sizes

For this grow I will be using plastic pots again but increasing to 5 gallon size.

Nutrients

The nutrient range I will be using for this grow will again be the GHE Triple Pack Flora/Gro/Bloom

image

In addition I will also be using Botanicare Cal-Mag Plus

image

Finally I also will be using GrowthCare pH Up/Down

image

Other Equipment

For balancing and measuring Feeds I will use the Kettotek pH pen and PPM Meter

image

Plan for the grow

Plan for this grow is pretty much the same as my last one. I will be starting seedlings off in starter pots before transplanting to their final pots after a couple of weeks. Once the plant has reached 5 nodes I will top it above the 3rd node. Once plant has recovered from this I will then start with LST but will look to do this much harder this time to try and maximise potential bud sites. After the plant has been flipped and finished its stretch I will then lollipop the plant but again will do this much harder this time.

I plan to provide an update with pictures at least once a week.

Thats it for the intro. Good luck to everyone in the Grow Off and for anyone following this diary, hope you enjoy Thumbs Up

Germination 

This morning I dropped 2 seeds into a glass of water and they are now in a dark cupboard where they will stay until the morning.

EBF6B1F4 F85D 4F26 A125 C854CBEA633F

Im only running with 1 of these anyway so the other one is no more. The good one has now been planted in her starter pot and is now in the tent under a plastic cup to keep humidity up.

Hopefully we'll see something sprout in the next day or two Thumbs Up

Here We Grow, Here We Grow, Here We Grow

Evening all hope you've had a good week and looking forward to the weekend Smile  

Good news from the tent, woke up this morning and checked on the Peyote and found this

1DDD236C 246A 4FA2 B364 AD25A158C2EC

So today will officially be day 1 for her. Just using a pipette at the moment to give her a small amount of tap water and still keeping her covered under a plastic cup to keep humidity up.

Temp is about 25C in there at the moment so she should be happy. Once she gets a little bigger, i'll remove the plastic cup and get a fan on her to strengthen her stem up. Ive also got a humidifier i'll add to keep RH up in the tent.

Thats about it for today, peace out and happy growing Thumbs Up

Day 5 Update 

Evening all, hope youre all having a good week so far Smile  

So today is day 5 for the LA Peyote Kush. 

0B9F8FC7 8F0E 4B74 A84E D9D420E964AA
EEE9FFFB 5E0B 4226 ADDA CD0D49AA6F51

As you can see shes grown nicely over the last few days since I last updated. Shes taking on a little more water now as roots start to spread but still got her under a plastic cup to keep humidity up. In a few days time whens shes a little taller, i'll remove this and get her near a fan to start to strengthen her stem up. 

Temp is sitting around 24-26C

Humidity is 70% - Ive got a humidifier in there for my other plant but like I say this one is still under a cup for now.

Thats it for now, happy growing everyone Thumbs Up

Day 10 Update 

Evening all, hope you've all had a good weekend so far. We got an extra hour in bed here in the UK today so always a nice little bonus.

So its been 5 days since I last update and the LA Peyote has come on lovely since last time so thought id post a couple of pics. 

426FF51C EC64 40E5 B3D0 A63DAC134F9E
0089B0FF 3B99 438B 9AED 72FC2B141F00

As you can see some nice growth over the last 5 days. Shes no longer under a plastic cup and I got a fan speed controller yesterday so ive been able to reduce the air pressure in the tent which has helped retain the humidity from the humidifier. Shes under a small 6" fan set on low so shes got a very gentle breeze on her.

Temp is sat around 25C

RH - 65 - 70%

Im giving her alot more water but then leaving the soil to really dry out before watering again so as to try and encourage the roots to spread and then maybe in a week i'll transplant to her final 20L finishing pot. 

Thats about it for today, will update again in a few days time. Hope all your tents are stacked and healthy, peace out Thumbs Up

Day 15 Update - Pre Transplant Eve

Evening all and happy Friday. So its been 5 days since last updated and shes continued to come on well as you can see from the pictures below. 

D673B652 F8E5 462E BD23 ACF322B6C710
7850B92F B6CF 4303 8F14 F604690309EC

You'll also notice shes looking a little bit sad. I was going to transplant her tonight but in usual unorganised fashion, ive ran out of soil so trip it is to the local hydroponic store to get some more tomorrow and as such she'll have to hold out until tomorrow now. 

Shes just been given a little bit of tap water as and when needed over the last few days but once transplanted i'll start to water in more of an organised fashion.

Temp is sat between 25-28.5C

Humidity 65%-70% (Ive got a humidifier in there connected to an Inkbird humidity controller so this just kicks on the humidifier as and when required)

Thats about it for now, I'll post some pics of the transplant tomorrow. Thumbs Up

Day 16 - Transplant Day

Evening All, so back into lockdown here in the UK for another month. The good news with this however is that it will mean i'll be working from home which also means more time to spend with my plants Smile  

So this morning I went and picked up another bag of soil and got ready to transplant the LA Peyote Kush.

I 1st started by drilling some holes around the rim of my pot just to make life easier for me when it becomes time to start LST.

1EE5D67D 3087 471A AC77 08905C71789F

I then filled the pot halfway with soil before lightly watering and then placed another starter pot I had in the middle to use as a template. Id seen Macky or TG do this in one of their transplant tutorials so ive always done the same.

66376B76 20E0 4E1D BC02 340805DF4C76

Once I had enough soil in the pot I remove the starter pot and just sprinkle some rooting powder into where shes going. This is only really cheap and basic rooting powder from a local garden stroerwe I had lying around but ive used it before and it seems to work well enough.

6B8B8A50 941E 4251 9DEF A29C0DE1DFAA

Then it was just a case of prizing out of her starter home and placing her in a new one. I grabbed a pic of her roots below aswell.

73FBE5E6 065B 4F80 AE00 E28AA1B3FD9E

So now shes nice and snug in her forever home and back in the tent. 

05F57CB5 43AF 4511 ACBA ADC8C58C3AB5
B4A1598B 9F86 4DC6 B60C 5929DF5CEE37

I pH'd and measured ppm of the water I gave her today. My tap water where I used to live, had a base PPM of around 330. The tap water I have here has a base PPM of 45.

Its so much cleaner its unbelievable and im hoping that almost starting at 0PPM will really benefit me in terms of controlling what im feeding her. Will definitely have to give her more Cal-Mag then I did with my last grow. 

Overall she was given 1000ml of tap water today nothing added

pH - 6.38

PPM - 45

Temp in tent in 23-28C

RH - 65-70%

Will just keep an eye on her over the next day or 2. This is as much bigger pot then ive previously used so just need to get used to how much water to give and how frequently but will probably be a bit trial and error there. 

Thats about it for today, next update will probably be when ive topped her. Thumbs Up

Day 20 Update - Shes Been Topped

So in my head id decided Friday to top the LAPK. In complete stoner fashion, I went in to top my other plant today (as shes a cpl days in front) and not paying attention ended up topping this one LoL  

So shes now been topped 

AF54A3E3 CCAB 4E7B 93FE AF271828AA06

Soil had pretty much dried out this afternoon so she was given her 3rd watering since she was transplanted. 

image

My soil has got a PPM of about 600 so she'll only be getting clean fresh tap water for a the next week or so before I add any nutes although i'll keep a close eye on her as my water here is very soft compared to where I used to live so may need to add some Cal-Mag.

D1C27427 00F6 4040 A900 FDBC70CD2061

Getting a bit colder here so temp in the day has dropped slightly but still sitting at a nice 23 - 26C in the tent.

RH 65-69%

Thats about it for today, happy growing everyone. Thumbs Up

@redeyejedi

great job topping the plant, are the large fan leaves half way down the plant covering a shoots directly under the fan leaf on each side ? 

if this is the case I would remove the two fan leaves because you will get at leased 4 tops on this plant.

@jacks_farm Thanks for your reply Jack. Yes they are covering shoots. Ive put a pic below of underneath the fan leaves.

D2C089CE 892B 4313 824D 4DCE5C020BEC

So you would remove both of those fan leaves? Id always read not to defoliate until flower as the plant uses the leaves to photosynthesise. That said my botanical knowledge is very limited and this is only my 2nd grow so im always looking to learn and try anything new so if you think this is the best option, let me know and i'll remove them both.

This plant looks like a heavy indica-dominant pheon with the very thick straight stem, uniform growth of shoots and massive fan leaves, I can't see this plant stretching more than 50% in flower so I would flower the plant off about 18" high

yes I would remove the two fan leaves because the lack of light getting to the shoots will kind of stunt the growth and make it stretch.

removing the right fan leaves at the right time can make a massive difference in a week or two.

you have the perfect plant for a 4 way cross with 8 tops, would be so easy on this plant ( 8 long large thick  cola's)

about 3 more weeks in veg.

@jacks_farm Cool thanks Jack, appreciate the advice. Smile  

I'll take both the fan leaves off then.

I was gonna veg for 4 weeks from transplant which will be 3 weeks tomorrow so we're on the same lines there.

@redeyejedi your welcome fellow,

As the shoots grow I would pull the taller shoots down so there all level.

some garden wire would work great, I did put up a guide the other day about this.

after watering pull shoots down an inch 

it would be great if you can get 8 plant sticks/bamboo (2ft long) or a plant support ring 

To support the buds
