This weeks update covers two weeks (6 & 7). I took cuttings from both plants which are just starting to root after 7 days. Unfortunately for them, they're probably going to be culled - see below. After taking cuttings, I switched the lights to 12/12 the next day and after 5 days, both plants are confirmed male. I've selected one of the two which I thought was prettiest and I will continue to flower him to collect pollen. I trimmed it right back to try and minimise any uncontrolled pollen release - don't want it contaminating future females! I might keep one cutting to test out my PC-case bonsai mother box but I won't be keeping any cuts long term. I guess that will be the end of this diary, thought I might do a final update when I collect pollen.

Hi mate, nice to see it going. For that one looking kind a down, stop watering few days (3-5) until you get more air into the soil or maybe you allready have a root bound due to higher light mount because plants like to push down like they push up so transfer to bigger pot would resolve your problem put it in 20L airpot/textile and before flowering put it in 40L textile/airpot and you will pull 100g min. dry top qual. buds from each (don't know how long you veg. but in 6-7 weeks of veg + 7-9weeks of flower you must get 100g. per plant min.)

@wrongleverkronk, Tnx, mate. All the best for us growers so any good info that I have I will provide to you. I am in perpetual mode with 3 rooms (one vege, two flower) so I am every 28-35days cutting some strain and have lot of experince before MIGRO led in HPS and outdoor so I can advise you and let some finest tips about the light/train under the led light - Migro aray4/aray 8

@SaKeZC, I'm about to update my diary but the sad plant is all better now - I thought it was probably root bound but was planning to pot up the next day anyway. A day after potting up and both of them were perfectly happy and have been since. Really credit your light info with getting my environment issues sorted so thanks again man!

@HighRoller909, I've smoked nep jam - it's one of my favourites. I also grew some NJ F2s a long time ago, unfortunately I had to move house 3 weeks in to flower so I never got to harvest them. That was a sad day. What weird things did you have with the NJ/BH?

@wrongleverkronk, good to see another mj lover seeking for clear,uplifting and positive high. I have 2 strains in my hands, A5 and Golden Tiger,both are too strong.Pretty heavy hitters for everyday smoke.Congo didn't go that well this round sadly,I gifted it to a friend.To be honest it was the fussiest plant out of all ACE I've tried so far.But smoke wise,a true diamond.definitely need that clean electric buzz. Nepal Jam was beautiful too,2 years ago. Amazingly warm and happy high,no body high. I ordered nep jam and a bangi haze lately but got some weird things going on and them seeds are gone...

Looking good but mate, you should transfer to 20-25L pot right away to get good root development and before flowering put in 40-45-50L if you have roome. Result will be top. Some strain in their first two weeks of flowering can drink up to 4L of water per day in warm period, some drink 4L trough whole week. In early stage you have to check by pot weight and soil moist. Every time when you think you should water put your finger in soil 5-6cm deep and if its very moist, don't. If you soil is slightly moist and full dry at top, water next day. If completly dry, water right away. Keep the good work 👌

@SaKeZC, aye - Yeah, I only used the smaller pots this time because it was already root bound but was still damp from being watered days previously. I didn't want it sitting in a really large pot and not drying out. I'm gonna be potting up really soon (a day or two) to the 2nd biggest pots I have which are 15L. I think my biggest pots are around 30L, but I'll look in to getting some bigger ones and some bigger intermediate-sized ones! Cheers mate!

Very nice. Keep the good grow and if you have spare almost 100€ go with MIGRO UVB fixture and enjoy the better taste, better resin production and higher/better density of buds produced by added UVB. Tnx for beliveing in my past advice and once again keep the good grow

Nice cacti, 😁 any trichocereus peruvianus in the mix?

@ObiWanKaRobbie, nah. I used to but I couldn't get them enough light - they kept falling over. The lophs really struggled as well - they were all very oddly stretched until last year when I built them this light box. They're looking much better these days!
