Royal Dwarf. 2nd Ever Grow.

DarkIce About 3-4 Days Above Soil Started to Strech under a single LED so I Transplanted Today (21/04/2025) And Buried About Halfway Up The Stem. 3cm. I also Preformed a Soil Slurry pH Test Which Was Very Interesting... So im moving forward im going to see how it goes not pH ing my water down as the soil seems to be proving a very good buffer to have it just in range.. I may in tje future adjust it to a pH of 6 and allow the soil to bring it back up to allow the plant the full array of nutes it uptakes at different pH strengths. Also looking to do a week of 24hr lights before dropping it back to 18/6

DarkIce Upgraded My Tent to a 1x1 in anticipation For My First Attempt At Topping and Scrogging Seedlings Are Doong Extremely Well. I Have. NEW Bigger Light Coming Next Week 😍 Just Gentle Watering about every day and a half 500ml Across the 3 pots watering a ring around the outside of the leaf spread

DarkIce The Girls A Looking Beautiful. Im Really Happy With How Their Going. They Are Off To A Much Better Start Than My First Grow. I Will Be Topping At 5th Node If Plant Is Health and Fine =] I Have a New Light Arriving This Week MarsHydro FC-E4800 So Definitely Looking Forward To Setting That Up. Watering 500ml Each Plant Every 3-4 Days Around The Perimeter. Every Other Water Iv Been Adding Low Dose Of FishMix & CalMag Little Seedling In The Middle Is Cream Manderine For A 2x2 Tent.

DarkIce The Start Of Week 4 New Light Being Used MarsHydro FC-E4800. Absolutely Beautiful Bit Of Kit Plants Are Healthy & Doing What They Should Be. Although id have this odd deposit On a Few Leaves on Each Of The 3 Plants. And im not sure what it is.. Under the eye glass. They weirdly look abit lole crystals. With a tiny hair coming out the top. My theory is that it may be humidifier residue. As no bugs and dont thing it PMD cuz its solid and doesnt wipe away at all. Plants are doing good. So im not super concerned yet. Hopefully Be Topping Early Next Week 🌱

DarkIce Week Bwhind On Posting As Had Flu What Wiped Me Out. Managed To Top Last Week And They Have Responded Really Well. I Topped At Node 5 but allowed it to grow a bit so was easy to remove. 1 of the 3 plants have remained extreamly short and bushy. Bo idea why i assume its Just the Drawf Pheno its taken on. Debating weather or not a need to use a net as i think it'll hold itself rather well.. Smallest is a creame Mandarin. Shes coming on well too. And will probs end up in the small tent in the coming weeks if things get hectic in the main tent... Im still expecting alot more streching. But we will see.

DarkIce Well Into Flower. I was expecting These To Get Slightly Bigger. But Have To keep Reminding Myself They Are Dwafs & Been Topped... That aside im really happy with them. They seem to be doing exactly what they need to be... And this whole run so far until today haven't used any nutes bar Fish Mix and the odd bit of Calmag. So my live organic soil mix is certainly doing the job.. Iv had to remove the other strain as weirdly its Got aphids although non of the dwafs have so i have no idea what went on there.. The new light is an beautiful and i love it. Its definitely making s difference. Think i may have to invest in a new tent as this one is second hand and has a fair amount of Light Leak but my lights are 4am-11pm so not all that bad. Been having a bit of trouble with temps being on the higher side so instead of the exhaust being vented into my room iv now got it venting out the window but thats only helped a small amount. Happy Growing 🙏

DarkIce So I Have a live organic soil and started introducing a very small amount of flower nutes. 1ml per liter... Just to make sure my soil isnt tapering off but think it may have slightly messed with some other essential nutes. Mainly calmag. To im doing on and off watering one with nutes and top max and one with just Calmag. Nugs are packing on lovely and are already twice the size of the top cola from my first grow at completion so im extremely happy with going ahead and topping and some slight LST. The 3rd dwarf is still very small and looking like 2 weeks behind. Not sure what exactly happened with that one but probs stress from topping and didnt stretch. Although i tried to pull a few branches down yesterday to get abit more light inside the canopy as its so tight in there... too late really as its too mature and snapped one branch but i have taped it up in hopes it will heal. All part of the learning curve of being a Newbie Grower Few Yellowing Leaves Which iv been told is normal. But some minor rust spots which is the readon for Alt watering eith nutes.... From last week my other strain had green Aphids. Got it out. Treated several times over 1 day with soap water. And put in a different tent for 3 days. No more pests to put her back in with the rest. Happy Growing =

DarkIce So Ran Into An Issue As Seen In Pics.. Which iv come to the conclusion that i got Mag Deficiency. And abit of General Nutriant Deficiency. Obvs caught it abit later than i would have liked to so now more so saving the leaves that i can and keeping the girls fed without over feeding them in a panic... Im not too far from Harvest so im not tremendous worries but still need to keep my head in it. But Away From That They Are looking beautiful and the nugs look lovely too. Im really excited to see how they look in about 2 weeks =]. I cant even imagine them packing on any more so im supee excited in hopes that they do along with being nice and dense The Smal Stunted Plant Is Still being slow and not up to much but im letting her ride it out

DarkIce These Beautiful Girls Are Nearly There. currently in a heat wave so im Currently putting off chopping at the moment as i have been struggling with exhausting the heat from the tent so iv upgraded my system and hopefully once that arrives it'll help massively... I have really enjoyed growing these Dwafs. And i Know they dont grow massive but hope people will appreciate what they produce.

DarkIce Been giving plain water for the past week. I know its not really needed for growing in soil but just wanting the plant to draw everything from itself. Bro Science? Im literally ready to Harvest But go some high heat in the next few days 32c Monday. So putting the chop off till mid week. Trichomes are looking lovely. As as you can see in the corner of the pics i have some seedlings coming through so will need the space soon
