So far so good. Seeds germinated easily in starter pucks planted in pots. No water or nutrients yet beyond initial planting. Cant wait to see a full tent of this stuff.
The Gemstone gals spent last week outdoors while the tent was used to confirm gender on 5 unknowns. The plants made it back into the tent just in time as the outdoor temp hit 0C. All looks good 😁
Watered the plants once during the week with 2l each and nutrients increased to 1/4 measure. This grow I've ensured the water runs through the pots, trays are emptied and the light is kept at least 30" away. Still looking good 😁
Skipped watering this week to let the Gems dry out completely. Topped all 4 at the end of the week. Next week is the start of LST and an increase in nutrients 😁 So far so good,
Plants are doing well to the point I'm considering taking off the huge fan leaves starting to fill the space. Each plant received 1 gal of water for the week and are starting to take off.
Last week of Veg. Fan leaves removed, tie downs refreshed, and plain water added. Hopefully flower will be showing by next post.
Check out the pic of the odd fan leaf, only 2 strange leaves across 4 plants.
Disaster! "Feminized" Gemstone seeds produced 3 Males in the 1st 5 days of 12/12 light cycle. Removed the males and replaced them with 3 clones; Power Puff Girls and Bubblegum from Super Veg diary and an Ethos Orange Kush Cake. Decided to leave the cycle at 12/12 and see what the little clones will produce.
Each plant got 1 gal of water this week with some Big Bud added and everything is still trucking along nicely. Plants defoliated and OKC tied down while the Gemstone was untied.
Inside Summer met the vegetable garden this week as the Orange Kush Cake was kicked outside due to ongoing mold issues. Looks pretty puny compared to the Ppg but it smells great and hopefully will produce an ounce or so of sweet stuff.
The remaining 3 plants in the tent continue to develop nicely after a flush to reduce Promix acidity. If all stays good I'm guessing a yield of 4 or 5 ounces a couple months from now - we'll see 😁
Plant # 4, a mystery plant was added to the tent to replace the Okc. One watering for the week and more defoliation for the Gemstone. All looking good. 😁
Plants were watered 3 litres each throughout the week at 1/4 strength Advanced Nutrients except for Plant #4 which was left to dry after the transplant. Power Puff Girls is showing amazing resin production and this plant is a clone of the Ppg in the Super Veg diary. 😁
Gemstone and Power Puff Girls flowers are dense and hard. Bubblegum has biggest flowers and still growing but not as dense and Plant #4 is still hanging in. Total yield looks like it will be 2 or 3 ozs across the 4 plants. Not much but the Gemstone and PPG look like they might be real potent. The plan is to let them go another few weeks and then bring them down in time to make room for Super Veg harvest.
Harvest day for Power Puff Girls, super tiny yield but it smells and looks wonderful! Bubblegum and Gemstone are still rolling but the Gemstone is close to finishing. Plant #4 is still hanging in but doesn't look too promising. Total yield looks like it will be 1 or 2 across the 4 plants with the Bubblegum and Gemstone providing most of the flower.
