Grow #5 Rainbow Chip

Three seedlings popped up after only 4 days after germinating for just 24 hours. Taproom just was poking through, so as soon as I know the seed is good I put it in solo cups filled with Roots Potting mix, with more coco and perlite to "lighten" the mix to make it a little more seedling friendly. Although I've used Roots straight with no problems.. I sprinkled seeds/take roots and hole with (Plant Success) Great White Microbes. And then watered with 10ml/Gal solution of "Canna Rhizotonic" Ph'd to (6.2 pH). Both Products to aid in Root Development.

Plant #2 that Died for an Unknown reason was replaced with another germinated seed so seedling with the RED marker was planted on 8/15 as the others are a 6 days ahead. Just keep mixing up small doses of "Canna Rhizotonic" and watering when media is dry

Plants are growing vigorously! Looking very Healthy. All plants where "topped" on 9/8/2021 at the 5th Node. 2/3 plants grew back with the expected 2 "Tops". But 1 plant came back as if it was "FIM'ed" with 4 "Tops" Just ordered 3 Gallon Fabric Pots and Some more Coco Based Potting Mix (Roots Organic * Amended with Worm Castings, Azomite, Mycorrhizae, and added perlite so I can feed sooner and more often.) They are ready to be transplanted, so when my Materials arrive on Wednesday 9/22. I will be transplanting all 3 plants into 3 Gallon "Fabric Pots" I feed with A Nutrient Solution every watering with at least 20% runoff. And Once a week I supplement using Both: Real Growers "Recharge" combined with Plant Success "Great White" Bubbled with an air Stone For 24 Hours and then PH Adjusted to 5.5 - 6.5 pH I plan on Cloning This Strain. Im expecting great results with this strain from "Exotic Genetix" ☺️ ✌️❤️🌱

I transplanted all 3 plants from "solo" cups to 3 Gallon Fabric POTS. For media I used 'Aurora's' "Roots Organic" (Original) Coco Based "Potting Mix" With added perlite for better drainage and also so i can feed sooner and more often. I also mixed in some more worm castings for microbe life and added "AZOMITE" for minerals and trace elements. I sprinkled a mix of (Plant Success)"Great White" and (Real Growers) "Recharge" directly on to the Root Ball as well as in the hole I Transplanting in. After transplant, i then watered the plants with a "Canna RHIZOTONIC" Which is an Algae based product with added B vitamins and other Stress Relieving Goodies.. Plants are looking very Healthy and didn't skip a beat from transplant shock or anything. Extremely pleased with these genetics vigor.

Since transplant, I have been just feeding them "Canna Rhizotonic," and this week I will add Cannazym to break down those dead roots that died naturally or from transplanting. To help keep that Rhizosphere nice and clean and free from pathogens, as well as added nutrients and root development 😉👍

Plants are healthy and growing vigorously! Loving the results of "Real Growers" Recharge added into feeding schedule or top- dressed about once every week.. Can't wait to see how these genetics come out. I plan on Cloning all 3 "Rainbow Chip's" and saving the best Phenotype to keep as a Mother plant. If all goes well I plant on keeping this strain around for a little. Of course I will be trying many other strains. As soon as I get my new tent and some more supplies so i can have a Veg room to keep vegging plants, clones, Mother(s). And maybe even try an 'Auto' or 2.. Happy Growing! ✌️💚🌱

Held off on feeding for 2 waterings, as I over fed slightly and notices a slight yellowing in the leaf margins signifying a nutrient lockout/toxicity. I flushed Media with Ph'd water and problem was successfully resolved .. Then yesterday 11/5/2021 I watered in some "Instant Compost tea" lol... a.k.a (Real Growers) 'RECHARGE' 💦🌱🚀. Before watering, I Top Dressed my media with 1 Tbsp./Per 3 Gallon container with 'AZOMITE'

Should of introduced scrog net a little earlier on in veg to let the tops grow a little higher. I am happy with the results so far but next time I will have to start weaving my branches while still in veg, at least for this strain.

*One last feed of 'CannaBoost' and 'Cannazym' before "Flushing" *First time growing this Cultivar. She did not stretch as much as I anticipated, so with that being said I should of introduced the "Scrog" while still in vegetative stage to allow the tops to tower a little taller over the canopy. Instead I ended up with short 6-12" inch colas which look phenomenal, however they could of been a little taller to increase my overall yeild. *Odd Phenotype All 3 plants came from same seed pack. However one pheno looks completely different from color to bud structure. Looks/smells like it is going to be good smoke. However. Buds did not fill out as much and lacks that purple color. As well as seems to have a different Terpene profile. Which all though is different, is still GASsy AF! 😜👍

Flushing with Ph adjusted water, only! until harvest. Buds are extremely dense and frosty, beautiful colors, ranging from Predominately Purple, with hints of Pink, orange, and multiple shades of green. The 2 plants that are to the front and back right of my grow closet seem to be pretty similar with subtle differences, but overall they seem to display the same characteristics and being almost identical phenotypes. However the plant in the back left of grow is a completely different animal. Very leafy, and Green, just now starting to turn pink around the edges of sugar leaves. But if I didn't know any better I would say that it's a completely different strain. Amazing terpene profile and looks like it's going to be an extremely potent bud. The only problem is it is not putting on weight nearly as much as I would like.

Flusging. Trichs are 90% Cloudy. So im going yo give them another week till I get a my least 10% Amber Trichomes. I plan on trying some last minute techniques to increase resin production. I know these methods are not 100% proven. But in figure it can't hurt. I plan on letting them sit in 24 hours of darkness on their last day before harvest. I plan on using ice cold water in the last flush. And possibly considering "stalk splitting" If anyone has any experience with any of these techniques please let me know your thoughts And your results.

Last week before being Harvested, all 3 plants chopped down and hung to dry at 65-70°F and 55-60% RH (Humidity) on Sunday-02/20/2022
