Beginning of week..
So I ran out of FloraGro.. I do have another bottle. I just haven't opened it yet.. But ai think the Kushie Kush should do just fine.. It has a tad of Nitrogen.. Kinda the same percentages as FloraGro actually lol.. Word.. But yeah she is happy and doing great! Super fat indica leaves.. Damnnear round.. Not pointed at the ends lol. I love it!
Next day...
So today the nodes were finally big enough to fit some scissors in there to top the 2 branches.. I have also removed the nodes entirely that would be growing up and/or down.. All together, there will be 8 tops.. Just going to keep tying down and training the branches to be able to fill the entire suitcase with nothing but top fan leaves and colas receiving the "almost perfect" amount of light!!!.. Anywhere from about 600 - 900 μmols.. Perfecto! These little bulbs can do some AwEsOmE things when you use a few next to eachother and keep the light super close to the plant.. But not touching.. Just like 2 - 3 inches to get maximum μmols. But they can also burn plants.. But only at like 1 inch or touching the actual diode.. But yeah.. Just keep following and watch what these little things can do at a total of 20 watts being used amongst all 3 bulbs.. Noice!
Mid week..
Just been tucking leaves and bending branches! She is definitely drinking more.. I notice she dries her medium out a day sooner.. She is doing great to be receiving bloom booster nutrients instead of grow nutrients. Very happy and healthy! Oh yeah.. I cloned one of the triploid branches.. So far, no roots are poking out of the jiffy pellet.. It's only been 7 days.. But you can tell that the roots are about to be exploding out by next week for sure.. When you give her a little tug, you can feel she is very secured in there!
End of week..
I noticed that the new branches are starting to show purple/black stripes!.. Whaaat?! Lol.. Doesn't seem to be an issue.. Due to everything else being on point.. I guess it is just genetics! Almost seems like the end product will look just like the website pics! Which is weird because I know for a fact that I have seen the same pic used on ILGM website for their Blackberry Kush and even another breeder used the same pic for some other strain.. Just makes it difficult to trust breeders to show their actual product.. Anyhoo.. This girl is growing just as she should.. Even with the abuse she is pushing right thru all of it.. I did remove the bottom node on the older branches.. Just too much going on down there and they were in the way.. And gonna be removed later anyway.. Also I want to kinda stress these branches out a little so that the second set of branches have a little bit of a chance to catch up.. It's worked before.. Other than that, I've just been bending branches a couple times a day by hand and watering/feeding when dry.. At this point, I think I may only need about 1 more week (MAYBE 2) of veg to let these other branches mature a little and bend them down some.. Then flip to flower pretty quick to avoid too much stretching in this little nano grow box I'm using.. On to the next week!...
@SpliffSeeds,
Thanks for your genetics! I can't wait to see what this girl has to offer! Other GDs look amazing! So excited! Thanks for the comment too!
@SpliffSeeds,
Lol thanks! i know its a small space... But I have yet to run into any issues with this little box I made.. And I'm glad that you read all my babbling lol.. I get a little high and cant shut up.. Like now hahaha. Thanks again. First time with your genetics and cant wait to see what she produces!
@DoDrugs420,
Thanks.. She has already taken on a different morphology than I'm used to seeing.. Kinda cool and pretty.. She already has fat stems from the leaves.. She looks like she could take a punch lol
Good luck with your grow I hope you get the best taste of buds and healthy plants! Take care and stay lit! I will drop by sometimes to check on your process! Say hello if you ever visit my page!
Greetings from L.S.T 🙏🏼🌟
@Legendaryseedthumb,
Thanks L.S.T.! I'm excited! My first Blue Berry strain! Just hope it tastes like it did in the early 2000s.. If not, I will keep searching! But still excited to see what she produces!
@PapasGrow,
I love growing in this little box.. Of course, I still run a 2x4 or 2x2.. Depending on time of year which one I use due to heat from the 2x4 light.. But yeah I have gotten up to I believe it was 38 grams growing in this little box with these little bs lights.. Just sucks how close you gotta keep them.. They do tend to burn some leaves.. I need to get that dialed in a little better.. Maybe have them spaced out a little more and just 1 - 2 inches higher.. And more training I guess lol.. But yeah this little nano box is so fun.. People hate on using foil, but it has served very well.. Im sure its probably because these LEDs are only pulling 20w.. Great for seedlings too.. Literally just the 3 bulbs rigged up to make a decent footprint of photons.. 2 computer fans.. One for exhaust and one for intake.. Sometimes I add a 3rd inside the box if the colas are too huge.. Growing medium and seed and all that jazz and I have always gotten great results in this little thing.. I love it! Lol.. Sorry Im stoned so I just typed a whole novel here 😂😂😂
Hi @Professor_Chaos, nice diary dude... thats lookin as frosty as ........ frost! proper xmas vibe.... Hope Ethos sponsor you. If they do can you ask for a Purple Thai??? Ive 3 beans but no space for a coco medium for at least 2 more indoor runs. Really want a smoke report as I was sent a sample of friends peat moss grow last week and its an absolute tasty champ and great anti anxiety effect for me. 👊 👌 👊
@sailormoonflower
Hell yeah.. That would be pretty cool if ETHOS sponsored me lol.. And that Purple Thai auto has caught my eye a few times.. That would be pretty cool if they sponsored me.. Thanks grow bro!
