New vendor!!! Without naming names, our last vendor had a real issue with labeling, shipping, correspondence and nearly all orders of feminized (photo period) seeds contained 30% autos... we gave them 3 years and it only got worse.. We decided to give ILGM a try, shipping was stellar and payment painless... we added 3 (of 5) seeds to a glass of water and all 3 were showing a taproot in under 24 hours (already off to a better start)... We planted the seeds in Promix (and a dash of EWC) using Solo cups, they're now sharing a germination light with our aeroponic cloner on 18/6hr ... thanks for reading and happy growing!! 😻 7/12/21 all 3 seedlings are above soil and shed their shells, they're stretching way more than anything we ever got from our last vendor, under the same light (reminds me of windowsill seedlings as a teenager) no biggie, we packed some more media in their cups and going to give them a few days in the flower tent, the fans and CMH should toughen them up.. we need to clean out our veg tent this week to make some room for our new friends! 🐱

Oops 😬 .... i accidentally gave the seedlings a light feeding.. I thought I had water in my spray bottle, and poured a splash on each before realizing it was a nutrient solution 😳... they were definitely harmed a little by this (wilted, drooping, miscolored).. we added a good amount of plain water and have been keeping them under the HID for now... not off to a great start lol..will update later in the week.. 7-18-21: I think they're going to be just fine.. we've been keeping them under our flowering CMH for 10-12hrs a day and back under the LED for the remaining 6-8hrs..we may just keep doing this..our basement is an awful grow environment this time of year...we may bring the veg tent upstairs to share a room with the flowering tent, I just need the ambition lol.. thanks for reading! 😻❤️💡🌱 7/21: they keep stretching, can't say we've had a strain do this before (my early accidental feeding?)..even under CMH they continue the stretch..we moved them to our veg tent which has 3 LEDs, we stuck them right under one of our more red LED, hopefully this helps..other than that they're growing fast and all 3 are uniform in size 🐱.. our goal is to mainline one of these plants, it's going to be interesting and pretty cool to see how they make out with their relativity long main stems (compared to our previous mainlines 😻💡🌱❤️

7/26/21: Week 2 and thriving! This seems like a hearty strain, its early but given her size we plan on feeding this week (maybe 5ml/gal of FF grow solution) and/or a top dressing of EWC..all 3 plants are of uniform size (1 may be a tiny bit smaller) and we couldn't be happier with the speed of their growth.. hats off ILGM 👏 🐱❤️ 7/28/21: The girls are a little droopy, a common problem we've had since moving the veg tent to our basement (we'll be moving it out of there soon) the humidity is way too high which isn't letting the media dry out properly 😿 they perpetually look over watered... we're going to start moving them outside for part of the day to get some sun (until me move some lights around) this should straighten them out..ty for reading and happy growing everyone!😺💡🌱 7/29/21: We moved them from our basement veg tent and created a new spot just for these 3 seedlings, we're using an older "600 watt" reflector LED...they were able to dry out fast in their new spot so we fed lightly and they're now praying to the light God 🙏 ❤️

8/01/21: 😹Week 3!!! We decided to low-stress train one if the Big Bud plants 🌱 and top/mainline another (at node #2), all 3 plants are being fed lightly this week with FF Grow 5ml/gal and 10ml/gal of the their guano solution...we've gotten very off-lable with how we use the Fox Farm trio but it seems to be working ok..all 3 seem to love their new veg space... thanks for reading, will update midweek! 😽❤️💡🌱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 08/04/21: 😼We removed to bottom set from the mainlined plant and we're low stressing the other 2 plants.. our goal is to keep 1 mother from this bunch and start with clones asap 😽

(a day early, Sunday plans etc..).. We've been feeding lightly with every watering (we're in promix) but we may throw some EWC in their pots..the mainlined plant is sporting new growth and building symmetrically, she had almost no recovery downtime to speak of, i couldn't be happier 😻..the low stressed plants are starting to fill out, we've been doing a lot of leaf tucking with those 2. thanks for reading if you made it this far lol, we'll update midweek..happy growing folks! 😽💡🌱❤️ ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 8/10/21: 🐱 The new growth seems to be coming light colored, they're definitely getting enough to eat for their size..idk..ill just keep doing the same routine and make changes if/when it gets worse..ty for stopping by ❤️💡🌱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

All the BigBud plants need to be re-potted this week into their final homes..we're running a little low on promix so 50% will be reused..thanks for reading, drop a like if you made it this far lol..we'll update midweek ❤️🐱💡🌱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 8/14/21 😽Everyone was up-potted to 5- 6 gallon containers toady..I also cleaned out a tent and moved a light, creating a space just for the ILGM Big Bud 😺👌 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 8/16/21: 😺I think my transplant solution was a little too spicy for them, we're starting to get glossy and claw (pics) but no dead tips yet..definitely water only for a little while... ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 8/18/21 😻Crazy fast new growth after last topping despite looking over fed.. this seems to be a very forgiving strain..

The new growth is coming in a little limey, we insist on reusing Promix so PH is always a bit of a rollercoaster lol.. no sweat, usually a gallon each PH'd to 5.5 with 5ml/gal N solution will get them back to baseline..we seem to have the same issue with most plants grown in our basement during summer, I'm sure the super high humidity and low evaporation rate has something to do with it... if they don't come around after the adjustment, they'll spend some time under the HIDs, this always straightens them out..we topped the mainline for the last time today for 8 mains per side, as well as another full round of toppings on the x2 LST plants... thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy growing everyone!!! ❤️🐱💡🌱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 8/22/21 🐱 Quick update, the mainlined plant is showing signs of calcium deficiency which is odd, with our routine we almost never have Calcium or magnesium issues..its really only noticeable under the florescent lights on this one but we'll have to make changes.. they all have plenty of calcium in their media so I'm wondering if the PH has gone screwy in that pot.. we reuse promix which gets really acidic sometimes and we add lime to buffer this but we guess a lot and may not have used enough (or waited long enough)..I know when our media gets around 5-5.5 calcium deficiency is a huge issue..ill add a little more calcium to be sure and will try using water PH'd higher (6.5-7) and see if this helps anything.

What is a good way to distinguish between early calcium deficiency and septoria? We moved veg tent to our basement recently and I'm wondering if we misdiagnosed..thanks is advance friends!!😺❤️💡🌱

looks like high ppm and high ph causing calcium to get locked out More then leaf septoria 🌱

We'll update midweek..happy growing everyone!! ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 9/2/21 🐱 be careful what you wish for folks..we asked for stretch and we got it..too much in fact, the node spacing isn't good, far too wide with this strain..we lowered both lights in the tent to get this to stop and turned up the fans to really beat on these for a few days..hopefully this will strengthen them, I really would hate to have to steak these later... ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

I'm still not a huge fan of the node spacing, it's much wider than we like, especially near the base, i'm not sure if full intact colas are in our future but these may surprise us.. the main stalks have really toughened up and should be able to handle any weight they put on in the coming weeks..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests friends! 💡🌱❤️😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ 9/13/21: 😺the plants are looking especially healthy atm, we started adding a little bit of grow solution with bloom about a week ago when their color started to fade, they're now the most perfect shade of green, however we noticed a little clawing on the smallest of the 3 Big Bud..we plan to go back to our regular feeding schedule for flower now that everyone looks good.. there's actually a good amount of nitrogen in our bloom supplement but I guess these are just really hungry plants.. I included a gallon container in one of the pics to provide scale❤️..thanks for reading friends!! ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Everyone is looking pretty good but the mainlined plant seems to be locking out calcium again (and they're clawing slightly, this is on me, I was pushing it lol)..its early but we've increased calcium supplements by 3ml, cut all grow solutions and PK feeds consistent ..we'll update on this again midweek.. thanks for reading grow family and happy harvests!💡🌱 😽💨 Week 4 on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EL-n5MUawFY ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

Everyone is looking pretty healthy however the bud development looks closer to week 3/4 imo and I really don't like the node spacing on plant #1, I wish we had limited some of her stretch sooner. I don't see large intact colas in that plant's future, probably long bud spiraled branches but its not the end of the world lol...We gave a tomato cage to the freak mainline for some added stability (she's definitely going to need it). All buds are beginning to frost and look as if they'll be coated by the end!! (something i really didn't expect from this strain)..We're still giving them more calcium than we typically do and will probably only stop when it comes time for their finishing flush....Thanks for reading if you made it this far, we'll update again midweek, until then happy harvest friends!! ❤️💡🌱😻 YouTube: https://youtu.be/5P8IRDEw0yI ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 9/28/21 😸 Color was starting to fade on plant #1, its been a PH rollercoaster in that pot, this happens sometimes when we reuse Promix, we flushed her alone with a mild leeching solution and she's already looking better today than she has in the last 3 days, I think she'll finish just fine ❤️..happy growing everyone!! 😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

The girls are starting to get really heavy, we may be forced to cage the rest for support, we couldn't move them much this week for fear of them collapsing..not recognizing or stopping the runaway stretch soon enough has come back to bite us..lesson learned about this strain.. the canopy is terribly uneven lol, we're just kinda letting them do their own thing at this point, we did drop 1 of 2 lights to accommodate the shortest of the group. The buds on this strain are incredibly dense, it looks like it will be some pretty good smoke ..we'll likely cut all feed by the end of this week, giving them roughly 2-3 to flush out..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests friends!!! 😽💨❤️💡🌱 https://youtu.be/KZXdy_l_b_A ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ 10/04/21 😾 Well it happened, they finally buckled lol, this bud is super dense..and more popcorn than we usually get ( ill make hubby clean it lol 😸) but even that will have some weight to it. We staked 2 of 3 plants and decided to switch to ph water for the remaining 3 weeks (or so)..thanks for stopping by grow family and happy harvests!! 💡🌱❤️😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

I had to invite a friend to give them a squeeze, to ensure there's more than 1 party to this fish tale lmao 😹..long story short the tent is a mess, we staked a few the best we could and made a few mains comfortable to finish on their side..we don't plan to move them until they're finished.. the next run in this tent will have to be aesthetically pleasing to make up for this hideous finish..*balance*..all plants are fading fast after cutting their feed, we're doing water only and they should be fully washed out come harvest ❤️..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests everyone!!💡🌱 😽💨 Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZjRQlDaBvM ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 10/12/21 Buds are swelling and the crystals are really piling on, however the tent is a mess lol...I'm really looking forward to harvesting these plant... trichs are still mostly clear, we definitely have some time left

Hi grow fam! Do any of you fabulous people own the iPower bud trimmer (pic)? If so, how well does this work to dry trim? there's lots of wet trimming videos with that device but that's not really our thing... thanks in advance for any input guys! ❤️💡🌱😽💨

Similar to the machine trimmers. Can do either wet or dry. I find wet trim and even dry in the bowl or machine, damages your bud. If I have nice budded tight flowers, I try to get through it by hand trimming. Preserves the taste and smell the best. I put all the smaller stuff through the machine trimmer to save some time.

She's dry after nearly 10 days (we hang in large cardboard boxes for 9 days and then a paper bags to finish) they definitely surprised us, we counted on roughly 6-7oz max and she delivered just over 9! (257g!!)... The smoke is very smooth and the flowers have a fruity, perfume like smell.. We'll definitely be growing this again (we have a clone of this in re-veg now)...Thanks for stopping by and happy harvests everyone!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqcF7scpqKg 💡🌱❤️😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_
