CustardVape Posted June 16, 2022 Author Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) @OldFord @Black Venus @Ccs141 or anyone who may know. I noticed this morning that the new leaves are canoeing , curling up at the edges slightly on the Cream Mandarine plant. I have a couple of ideas what it may be. Heat stress as the temps in the garden/greenhouse are sky high. I leave the door and roof vent open so not sure. The other could be I upped the feed from 1ml/l of grow to 2ml/l and introduced some liquid seaweed at the last feed. Again not sure. What do you think? All the best Edited June 16, 2022 by CustardVape 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Venus Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I'd concur that's it's probably heat stress – sometimes the leaves curl inwards like that to reduce transpiration and conserve moisture. It has been a brutal change in temperature in the last few days and greenhouses get so hot so quickly, even with door and vents open. At any rate it's not anything to worry about – the plant still looks happy and healthy and she'll be fine. Indeed less is more when it comes to feeding, but liquid seaweed is fairly innocuous and you shouldn't go too far wrong with that. The plants really love it and I use it all the time to supplement whatever else I'm giving them, generally without any problems. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardVape Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 Moving on and the leaf issue was down to heat stress I believe as mentioned. The plants seem healthy and no sign of nutrient burn or deficiency. Also started feeding/watering in the morning to try to keep the roots cool through the hot days. Sticking with 1ml/l of liquid seaweed/grow, and 2ml/l of bloom at the moment. Got some lovely smells now and good resin production on the Mandarine , the Cream Caramel still not as vigorous as the Mandy but they're forming up ok. Unfortunately, the dog took a liking to one of the CC and almost up rooted it , so that may effect her final weight. Anyway she's still growing so will see. Got loads of pics.... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardVape Posted June 21, 2022 Author Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) These two side branches were just asking to be tied down. Of course, I couldn't resist the lady.... A bit of leaf tucking as well to try and get more sun into the lower bud sites. Edited June 21, 2022 by CustardVape 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Venus Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Love the Arizer Solo! It's been my constant companion since I stopped puffing bifters quite a few years ago. Your plants are looking stunning! I bet they smell amazing as well, do they? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave up smoking tobacco around 10 years ago now, best thing I ever did. I love my Arizer , but thinking of going all out on a Volcano. The Cream Mandarine has a lovely subtle sweet citrus skunky kind of smell standing still. But brush against her, and she really stinks , lovely!! The Cream Caramel isn't as loud, but she does pong... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardVape Posted June 30, 2022 Author Share Posted June 30, 2022 I'm watering every other day or so now. I upped the bloom feed tonight to 4ml/l . With 1ml/l grow and 1ml/l of liquid seaweed. Got some great resin production going on, and the Cream Mandarine smells beautiful.... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hashslag Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Man this thread has been making my mouth water! Plants looking stunning mate. Is it just me that gets an actual heart flutter when I see lush grow pics Also, every time I see 'Cream Mandarine' I sing it in my head to the sound of 'Green Tambourine' by the Lemon Pipers. As you were! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardVape Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Cream Manarine is at week 10 now and the Cream Caramels at week 9. We've had some beautiful weather and they're growing away real nice. I rekon planting out start of May has paid off as they're getting the best of the sun now with no chance of mould fingers crossed. They fucking smell a lot now. Even from a couple of meters away you can get a whiff. Edited July 10, 2022 by CustardVape 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CustardVape Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 Still feeding 3ml/l bloom 1ml/l grow and 1ml/l of Shropshire Seaweed. I also added some Living Soils Myco Boost for added Cal/Mag and beneficial bacteria. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
