Welcome to my diary. I'm trying a new little clone system by Trecaan on these 5 cuts of Pan's Cake #1 by Deadpanhead genetics, 1 cut of C99 (Grim cut), and 1 monster crop cut of Purple Tarantula by Mountain Farmer Genetics. I took the cuts, dipped them in Foop clone gel, put them in the sponges that were provided, and placed them in the tray. I'm using 5ml of KLN and ProTek by Dyna Gro nutrients in the solution. Let's see what happens! Started June 13 2021.
I put the rooted cuts in Dixie cups, to help avoid over watering and to save space. I used Risentek as a the medium in the cups. I like it because it holds water quite well. I haven't given them any nutrients yet, except for a little Mikro BW by Soil Microbes to encourage healthy soil. So far, the are looking good!
Please excuse the lack of good pictures. I had a heart attack this week and was in the hospital for almost a week. That said, my plants suffered a bit. They didn't get the nutrients that they are starting to require and didn't get watered on time. The Pan's Cake came through this quite well, and was looking good when I got home.
I had a heart attack last week and didn't get to keep up on the diary. I did start up my Cronk nutrients that I was asked to try. That seemed to put the Pan's Cake into overdrive, and she started growing quite quickly. I uppotted her to a 1 gal pot.
Still recovering from a heart attack. Sorry for the lack of content. I will say I feel better this week and am confident I'll get this diary back in shape! The Pan's cake continued to grow quickly. I am still fighting a bit with getting the right nutrient mix, but no big problems this week.
I uppotted the Pan's Cake into a 6 gal bag by Air Bottom Bags and put in a little trellis for support. I did some HST by bending her over and weaving her through the trellis to form a makeshift SCROG, or Screen of Green. I'm still dialing in the nutrients, but anticipate not real problems. She seems to be coming along just fine.
I think I finally dialed in the nutrients, and I'm seeing good growth. She's filling out nicely and I like the color of her leaves this week. A good sign! I added a net for added support as she continues to grow. I cleared out the rest of the tent, and gave her plenty of room to grow! She's going to be a big girl.
I flipped her to 12/12 and am hoping for a good stretch so she sends branches up through the netting. So far, I haven't been disappointed. She is showing good growth, and starting to drink a bit more. I added bloom nutrients to the mix and should see good results. Time will tell.
This was a fun week. She continued to stretch and started to show some flower at the end of the week. I popsicled her to clean her up under the canopy. I'm trying to avoid getting a lot of popcorn when she finishes. I don't want anything under the trellis. She is really showing good growth, and will need some defoliation soon.
I consider this the first full week of real bloom, and she looks beautiful. For now, I'm just letting her grow. I don't want to defoliate yet, but it will happen very soon. I had no problems at all this week and enjoyed watching her grow.
This was another fun week. I did some defoliation to open up all the bud sites. That took a little longer than I was expecting. This is the largest plant I have ever grown, and I'm learning there are some differences in growing a big girl, the first being she takes longer to defoliate. The second is the amount of water she drinks. I'm watering her a full gallon ever other day and she is taking it all.
She continues to show good growth. I had to do some more defoliation this week to remove the bigger fan leaves...again. She's showing good bud formation and I am enjoying watching her grow. She is nice therapy after my heart attack. Growing relaxes me and gives me almost as much relief as the medicine I am growing.
I just let her grow this week. Her buds are starting to get very sticky and I can tell the branches are starting to get heavy. I anticipate adding some additional support soon to keep her from drooping. No problems at all this week. She just continues to grow strong.
She's starting to show some nice purple colors, even though it's not getting very cold at night. She's showing many nice buds and it appears that while they may not be the biggest buds I have grown, they will be quite firm. So far, so good! Let's see what happens!
She's starting to bulk up, and I've cut my nutrients back in anticipation of the flush. She is a beauty and I love the colors she is displaying. I'm starting to get a distinct smell of burnt tires and rotten organic from her, with just a hint of sweetness. I love the smell! I added some plant ties this week to hold some of her branches up. Many of her branches are starting to droop under the weight of the buds, but nothing I can't handle. No problems this week and she is looking great.
She's a real beast. I started the flush this week by removing all nutrients from her watering. I just overwater her a little, and remove the access. Going forward, I will continue just giving her a good diet of plain water to remove some of the salts from the soil. She's a little too big to take outside to really flush her. I'm sure this will work out fine. I had to continue tying up some of her branches to keep them from falling over. She's looking good.
She's getting close now! She has bulked up and all her branches are starting to bend over. These aren't the biggest buds I have grown, but they are very dense and heavy. She should be a good yielder. I'm going out of town for the 4 day weekend and by the time I get back, I'm sure she will be ready.
This plant was from a 2nd generation clone that came from the original breeder, Deadpanhead. She was a easy grow, and took LST, HST, Topping, and SCROG well. Basically, as long as she had lights and nutrients, she grew well. She doesn't have the biggest buds, but they are some of the tightest and heaviest that I have grown. Very deceptive. But in a good way. I didn't have any problems with pest, mold, or disease. She was a very easy grow on those regards.
Her buds are very tight and heavy after drying. She smells a bit like burnt rubber with a mix of sweet rotten organics. Very nice. After a two week cure, she produced a nice smooth smoke. Very potent with a nice head high followed by some slight body relaxation, but not too much. A perfect morning or afternoon smoke, with a minty taste on the exhale. I wasn't couch locked and could still function. I am very happy with how she turned out.
This was a big girl to harvest. She came in at 417.3 g dry, which is a personal best for me. Additionally, I received 36g of nice trim for my tincture. The buds aren't the biggest I have grown, but they are some of the tightest! I really enjoyed growing this clone. She filled out the tent well using a type of SCROG to get the most out of the grow area. I dried the buds on a drying rack for 10 days, and then gave them a nice rough trim. Since this is all for personal use, I don't worry about making them pretty, just functional. She is a sticky girl, and gummed up my scissors more than once. That is a good problem to have! I put the trimmed buds in my Grove 1/2 gal bags for the cure. I have found these bags to be EXCELLENT to cure my buds. No burping is required, they preserve the terps, and keep the humidity between 58 and 62. Perfect! My best harvest to date!
