My first run with this strain i got a dud that germinated but refused to sprout cubes after using paper towel method, you can can see here—> https://growdiaries.com/diaries/113704-grow-journal-by-iwmz420
(might have to C&P into browser as hyperlink wont work)
So im trying a new one this time germinating directly in the damp cube
SUNDAY JULY 11th, 2021
- balanced ph of rockwool until runoff was about 5.6
-planted seed directly into cube with a pinch of 0.1% IBA rooting powder
WEDNESDAY JULY 14th, 2021
- seed sprouted from rock wool cube this morning
THURSDAY JULY 15th, 2021
- first true leaves forming in nicely.
adding a pinch of 0.1% IBA rooting powder to the cube before popping seed in for germination has seemed to accelerate growth so far. Usually not this far along until around the 7 day mark from germ
FRIDAY JULY 16th, 2021
- tap root already popped though rock wool!
-put seedling in netpot and got bucket all set up with 1/10th strength nutrients PHd to 5.5. Didn’t completely cover the rock wool with hydroton incase i need to water from the top until roots reach further.
***Have never seen root growth this quick from seed. 10/10 recommend anyone germinating in rock wool to try a sprinkle of root stim with the germinating seed.
Seedling actually sprouted on Wednesday July 14th so this Being the 18th is technically Day 4 of veg.
SUNDAY JULY 18th, 2021
(DAY 4 since sprout)
- seedling looking happy and first true leaves always praying and perky. Maybe some slight yellowing due to an extremely weak nutrient solution but will keep an eye out and adjust accordingly.
MONDAY JULY 19th, 2021
(Day 5 since sprout)
- Seedling forming its 2nd set of true leaves
- Looking slightly more faded than yesterday, i know this is from lack of nutrients and not over watering as I’m in DWC and rock wool is just moist. I refilled res with 2x the amount of nutrients as before bringing me to about 1/5th strength. Will see how seedling reacts.
WEDNESDAY JULY 21st, 2021
(Day 7 since sprout)
-seedling still looking faded but new set of leaves forming in nice and no sogns of stunted growth. Added some more Nitrogen to the dilute solution (via AN micro & B-52) ) as and lowered the power on the QB i have as i feel like the lights are too strong for seedling even though they're over 3ft away.
THURSDAY JULY 22nd, 2021
(Day 8 since sprout)
- the increase in nitrogen and lowering the power of a QB seems have helped it, seems darker green and new growth isn't as faded
FRIDAY JULY 23rd, 2021
(Day 9 since sprout)
-New set of leaves now showing all blades and looking much healthier since increasing nutrients
- roots have now reached through the net pot
SUNDAY JULY 25th, 2021
Day 11 since sprout
-Growth starting to get more rapid, 3rd set of leaves is already forming and growth tip is very easy to notice now. Roots growth is happening extremely quick.
WEDNESDAY JULY 28, 2021
Day 14 since sprout.
-plant and root growth extremely vigorous now. All growth looking green and healthy at 1/4 strength for all nutrients (1ml/L of Base nutes and 0.5ml/L of all others)
SUNDAY AUGUST 1st, 2021
Day 18 since sprout
-growth still extremely vigorous and plant looks extremely healthy, going to increase nutrients by 25% this week when i change the res and see how she reacts.
SUNDAY AUGUST 8th,2021
Day 25 since sprout
-Growth still looking great, tried to increased nutrients an additional 25% with in 1 day she was showing signs of tip points clawing down so i readjusted the Nutrients back 1Ml/L for base nutrients and 0.5Ml/L for my secondary nutrients’.
WEDNESDAY AUGUST 11th, 2021
Day 28 since sprout
Both root and upper plant growth extremely vigorous now. Plant looks healthy with no signs of discolouration or dark spots. Still using all above nutrients at exact strengths listed above. Will keep this regimen and post pictures of growth twice per week until i flip the lights down to 12/12 for her flowering cycle.
SUNDAY AUGUST 15th, 2021
Day 32 since sprout.
-Nothing different to note from previous week. Nutrients will remain the same.
*Choosing not too top or do any LST other than some leaf tucking as there is no completed diary of this strain and id like to capture its natural essence before trying any techniques too improve yield*
FRIDAY AUGUST 20th, 2021
Will probably start flowering cycle in the next Day or 2 just due to height restrictions in the tent.
Breeders description says SSOG is an 85% indica hybrid and As you can tell shes living up to that statement quite well with an extremely short and bushy stature and FAT fan leaves.
SUNDAY AUGUST 22nd
Day 1 of Flowering
Day 39 from sprout
- Last night was the first at 12 hours darkness, will leave nutrients where they are and adjust/add bloom nutrients accordingly when i change res next when plants begin to Stretch.
SUNDAY AUGUST 29th, 2021
FLOWER DAY 8
Day 46 from sprout
-Nothing to note this week, plant is getting extremely bushy, no signs of any issues on leaves at all.
-Shes drinking about 2L of water a day at this point meaning I've had to change res twice in the past week as i don't like the buckets too far below half.
-Added a couple bloom nutrients to the mix the last couple res changes, nothing major just .5ML/L of Bud candy and Bud factor X.
Sunday sept 19th, 2021
Plant is seems to be putting most energy to Flower formation and producing insane amounts of Trichomes spanning on to most fan leaves.
Shes still stretching a bit, may need to use some zip ties to hold one of my lights a little further from the top of plant.
Other than that shes healthy as can be!
Happy growing! I hope you get some good results! Take care and stay lit! I will drop by sometimes to check on your process! Say hello if you ever visit my page!
Peace & Love - L.S.T 🙏🏼🌟
