Tent-Venture Season Two - Episode 8

I’m posting the following journey undertaken by my friend Theodore Complete on their behalf.

Tent-Venture - S02E08

Day 84 (4/22) F28

I gave a good feed of base, bloom, cal mag, and molasses today. This girl is doing pretty well but there is some leaves being drained of N that seems a bit early for me.

Day 86 (4/24) F30

I fed it today but I increased the amount of fertilizer because the apparent N deficiency continues to be a nuisance.  The buds are thickening up nicely but you can see the yellow in the photo.

Day 87 (4/25) F31

Here’s a 2 foot level for scale:

The close up view warms my heart.

Day 88 (4/26) F32

I noticed a little bit of burnt tips yesterday so I’m going to back off the nutrient concentration a bit, the Nitrogen especially. According an article on nutrient burn on growweedeasy.com : “These burnt leaf tips are a sign the plant isn’t able to move water and nutrients properly in the plant”

Day 89 (4/27) F33

Day 90 (4/28) F34

I feel like I’m near the halfway point for the flowering period.  Some of the branches are getting girthy enough that I’m concerned about stability. I may need to invest in some bamboo stakes to tie them to if they keep fattening up at the same rate.

I haven’t fed since F30 but may start up again over the weekend.

Day 91 (4/29) F35

It’s drinking a fairly consistent 3L per day, it’s been the same for some time.

Day 92 (4/30) F36

They’re getting pretty sticky now. My hands get really smelly when I touch the flowers.

I fed with 2.5 ml  (1/4 tsp) bloom, 1.25 ml base and 1.25 cal-mag to 1 L with a little splash of molasses for some razzle dazzle.

The photo makes me think of corn.

Day 93 (5/1) F37

Another day another 3 L down. The buds are filling and forming nicely, getting frosty little trichromes all over.

Day 94 (5/2) F38

Peeked in for a second but it’s doing fine.

Day 95 (5/3) F39

I feel like I’ve been riding the line between nutrient deficiency and excess. This photo shows off both yellowing leaves and burnt tips - pretty neat. I believe it’s also just running down on it’s life clock so it’s not unexpected. I gave another nutrient drink today regardless.

Day 96 (5/4) F40

Everything looks alright.

Day 97 (5/5) F41

Happy Cinco De Mayo 🇮🇹
