peace

[slimjim 590]

Hi once again hunters

A little bit faster growth now, think they over the slow start

I have increased the powder feed to 1.3 EC, 5.9 PH, 22c, as and when needed

RH 60-65

Temp 24-25, goes down to lowest of 20, at lights on and off changes till the radiator or bulb heats up

Im sure they will still produce nice bud if not a lot of it

Thanks for looking i wont giveup on them

In the last picture the 2 smaller pots are slh

At nearly 6 weeks old for the oldest ones, (not a very good show on my part) i should rename this as a sweet mango stress test.

Being scared of over watering, i think its not enough water where the problem started, probably why the Exodus were small.

All i can do now is wait till they flower and see what happens,start the count down from there.

Growth is noticeable now however still slow.

TEMP-24/25

RH-55-60

Feed EC-1.4 PH-5.9 at 22c

Here are some pictures, hope the growing tip pics make up for the my growing mistakes

PEACE HUNTERS thanks for looking

[slimjim 590]

sorry hunters for some reason the pics are all mixed up

not the order i uploaded them maybe my labelling of the pics

[Dust 6,284]

hehe well a stress test is a good test too ^^

Thanks for the news man hope the ladies will boost up in flowering did you increase a little your watering frequency ?

Have a good grow keep us updated

[slimjim 590]

Hi hunters

Dust, yes i did increase the water frequency a little,just hope they not stressed to much,Thanks

We are now in the start of the flowering stage,so i changed the bulb to 400 watt dual spectrum

Going to increase the feed to EC-1.6 PH-6.0 next watering

RH dropped to 45-50% as extraction fan now on

Tempreture 24-25c, temp dropped the other night to 17c when i turned on the extraction fan, now 19c at nights after little heater increase

Sorry about the quality of the pics

PEACE HUNTERS

[slimjim 590]

Its that time again, budding season and i love it

I must say the flowers bloom quick once they started on these SMA

Apart from having a rise in temp of 1c lights on and 2c off everything is preety much the same

After lights on tomorrow going to lower ph of feed cause root ball a bit high PH 6.8

So here are some pictures, i like SMA 4, the youngest of the 4 and the most developed,the last 4 pictures are with a 2 lt bottle for height comparison

Hope you all like the pics and thanks for looking

PEACE HUNTERS, and i be back in a few days

[Dust 6,284]

hi man thanks for the pictures everything seems to be running fine Have a good grow!

[slimjim 590]

Hi hunters

In the last 5 days since the last pictures, both branching and flowers are developing nicely

Temp increase to 28c lights on due to outside temp rising

They seem to like the environment now, its a nice turn round from a bad start

Apart from that, the rest is the same

Thats all for now PEACE HUNTER

Good to see those buds forming slimjim With the 400W they should come along nicely now for ya.

I noticed you waited until flowering to add the 400 W, did you just have the cfls before that? If I may make a suggestion for next auto grow to speed them up..my last /1st auto grow when I asked other growers on here about when to add thew 600 W HPS to the tent and most said in the first couple of weeks..which I did in my current grow with nice results. If they are small just start the light really high up and ease them into it slowly lowering it down every couple of days. Unless it is an electricity issue, that I can understand..bills suck

Best of luck!

Peace

Hi hunters

I may not of treated these girls with all the love they deserve, however they are not letting me down they are now stretching and flower formation is fast

Im sticking at EC-1.6 as they seem to be loving it at the moment served at PH-5.8 at 22-23c, an hour after they wake up every other day

SMA 1 and SMA 3 are drinking about 600-700ml, SMA 2 takes 900ml, SMA 4 1100ml, before any comes out the bottom, every 48 hrs

Increased the speed of the circulation fan and temps still remain 24-25c lights on and 22c lights off,

RH 45-50%, that being highest and lowest

Yeah man the buds are coming! Looking great The smells will just get better and better the more you let her grow

Enjoy dude Gonzo

[slimjim 590]

Hi hunters

After leaving the plants to dry out about 4 days, gave them a feed of 1.8 EC 5.8 PH at 23c

All other factors remain the same

The buds have a light dusting of trichomes and getting bigger

Better pictures coming saturday and micro shots

PEACE

[laocoo 132]

Hey Slimjim, those mangos are budding pretty nice, and the pics are cool. thanks for sharing... looks a good work what you are doing... i wish you best luck

[slimjim 590]

Hi hunters very quick update

Feed today, they now drinking loads

Getting highs of 27c now and its 28 out doors so not bad

Taken 3 micro shots hope you like them

Got a few brown pistels on 2 of the SMA but have to look closely

PEACE

[Smokeythabear 988]

Looking good man!! I love those macros..have a great finish

[slimjim 590]

Thanks for the comments

Hi hunters this report is end of week 4 flowering and all doing nicely apart from SMA 1 which looks like it may

have been overfeed at some point

Adjusted controller settings today to keep temp down a bit, 29c in there today, dont like it that hot as co2

i can not add enough of, i got 2 yeast and sugar co2 makers going

RH now down to 44% at 29c

There are some red leaf stems, would cold when they was young cause that now or something else, maybe in the strain?

Buds are growing like mad and probably still got 4 weeks left

I hope there are not to many pictures just showing as much of the plant as i can

Thanks for stopping by not long now

PEACE

[Dust 6,284]

thanks for the lil news man the buds are developping nicely i hope with a good lil flush the overfeed will pass away

Have a good grow

[slimjim 590]

Hi hunters

End week 5 report, development excellent, buds are fat pear shaped and like ski slopes and smell sweet

which the ONA gel had trouble dealing with, as the SMA didnt take long to fill the house with a

fantastic smell

SMA 1 this week has been feed on EC-1 PH-6.0

SMA 2, 3 still on EC-1.8 PH 5.8 and could probably take more but not going to take the risk as 2 now

showing overfeeding

SMA 4 EC-1.8, PH-5.8 the start of the week then last 2 feeds have been same as SMA 1 caught

this 1 earlier than SMA 1

No trouble with vitals in the tent, highs of 28.7c and lows of 22.3c RH- 44-53% highs lows lights on

and off

Macro shot of plants from now on to show weekly development of trichomes

Few other pictures the best of what i have taken,the others are to fuzzy, no good at photography

Hope you all enjoy

PEACE HUNTERS

[Bam-Bhole 1,903]

Man, the heads are already filling up. Never seen them with white stuff inside, but listen my words - next week there will be already around 10% ripe trichomes. That sma flowers very fast ....
