FJust a little run down on our method here, We are keeping the plants in a hydro (coco) setting until transplant when we will be using organic methods. We have found it eliminates all manner of problems and yields high growth for those first 10 days. This is the most critical time these first days so stick with what works. First time for Bruce Banner, Into water 9/15 9/16 Popped, tail color is good so seed planted into medium. Second set up on to veg

I really do not like the grow medium we chose for the seedling, lesson learned do thy own coco prep. Looking to transplant this week 10/8 Transplants finished Top dressed with 2tsp/gal of container Dr Earth 1/4 cup 10/9 Looking MUCH better now seems all the boxes are checked for now for the Gold Leaf and Green Crack, tested pots for Nitrogen found them low so will be adding more N as we go. Gor Glue improved greatly as well , others lagging but seem ok-ish Reduced light to Bruce Banner and GSC by half they just a bit young yet. 10/10 Last update for the week: Feed tomorrow increasing FIsh Mix to 5ml/gal Nitrogen still a bit low Bruce Banner has turned a corner and top growth is excellent in form and color. Girl Scout Cookies similar but less so she has further to go but color and form of top is also excellent. Gor Glue is just pretty as hell and doing good. Ditto for green crack and gold leaf

10/12 Week four start Ok very glad to see the success we have been granted and working on the issues. Think the crisis point has passed and things line up a little. General - Pots are good on Nitrogen so just including some biobizz for the sugars and trace stuff. No real deficiencies to deal with in general. Problem child GSC ... just have to treat it like the others and do what we can clock is running out on this girl to pick up. Bruce Banner is better and growing so not changing anything there. Gor Glue is looking so tasty she has picked up enough to consider cloning down the line. Green Crack, hey whats not to love how she is growing? Also cloning her. Gold Leaf surprisingly our largest plant absolutely cloning God willing. So it looks like the clone grow will end up as GG, GC, GL two each in a few weeks 10/13 pics no issues 10-14 Feed adjusted to add a little extra Phos and goodies, added Biobizz Bloom - not a big fan of it but should work excellent in this application Weekly Recharge application as well water use up a bit as expected 10/16 Pics - no issues to address - seriously plants are as healthy or better than any I have ever grown. All the roots are filling the pots so happy tent

10/20 week 5 We have no complaints on the grow, at all. Literally nothing to address. Top dress nuets at next feed. Just maintenance, keeping the low end clear etc. Due to falling temps think the watering/feed will wait another day. Gold Leaf - Finally going vertical, two inches in two days so keeping an eye on it Green Crack - Close to topping day for her will take care of it on the top dressing Bruce Banner - finally hitting her growth as well watching Gor Glue - Just looks great not sure on topping here either GSC - Man what a turn around may regret that 3 gal pot. Cutting back on the special kanga she was getting to help the roots, seems to have worked. 10/21 Fed and top dressed - topped 10/22 GC-BB-GL all recovering from topping Plan to flip tent in a few days about the time they finish recovery Dialing back Nitrogen by switching from Fish Mix to Bio-Grow think we at the upper range of it. Had some mag spotting on the leaves of the BB think its due to the heat getting out of hand the other day (90 F for about 1/2 hour ) going to keep cal-mag in the mix just the same 10/23 After looking at the tent this morning I am seeing some small signs of Nitrogen being a tad high so ending for now the bio-grow but will continue the Bio-bloom Have to head these things off at the pass so trying Last run of kangaroots its done what its going to do by now since we aint fighting root eating critters The BB seems to have stopped its mag def seems the strain needs more than others. 10/24 Fed as shown, basically its just a watering Watching leaves flipping within a day or two 10/25 Tent flipped to 12-12 10/26 Looks just great god willing and the creek dont rise we on the right path Video is on the Green Crack Diary only net is slow today

week 8 11/11 Introduced Soul Peak PK One time dose just to shake hands with it see how they react 11/15 Ok eval day on the nuets Good position to be in grateful for the grow. Going to continue low dose of Soul Peak the stuff has an effect though this use is "Off Label" so to speak Just a couple of days from next feed of Dr Earth and Co top dressed with an inch of new soil in prep for this. will be 3-1 bloom-grow this round for those Not seeing any deficiencies and stems look good so change nothing in that respect, no toxicity either though a couple of time Nitrogen was too high by a tad. Bio-bizz? Meh keeping it around its as good as any bottled nuets and its so far keeping things level. Bloom only from here if nothing changes SuperThrive, its not utterly obvious but this stuff has an effect, dont use too much too early but a little is golden. Keeping Cal-Mag, Recharge, and Big bloom of course doing their thing well, keeping as is. Here's to the next month see what happens 11/17 Some signs of CA def showing in spots. Watered and feed, increased cal-mag to 5 ml/gal, bloom to 10 ml/gal, Peak to 1.5 ml/gal others remain as was. Top dress soon as pots dry a bit a bit early to do so just yet.

11/18 Week 9 Flowering stretch seems to have ended very happy with what we got. Top dressed 7 gallon pots with 1.5 TBS Grow, 3.5 TBS Flower, and 1 tps Cavern Culture Looks like I am a couple of days behind the CA curve some strains are HEAVY eaters like the Green Crack and GSC some are more middle of the road like Gold Leaf others like Bruce Banner and Gor Girl seem to be on the light side. Makes timing this a bit challenging but moving the schedule to every 12 days down from 14 per Dr. Earth. 3 gallon was 1 TBS Grow 2 TBS Flower 1 tsp Cavern Next top dress 12/1 Keeping cal- mag at full till sure these CA defs have cleared 11/20 Look good defs have cleared 11/22 Well that was a little premature. The heavy feeders again GC, GSC. New strains new methods meh expected. Defs continue on the GSC, small pot large plant problem, has drained the pot of nuets so correcting. Added extra Dr Earth in a half grow half bloom mix, 1 TBS. Should have more impact on the smaller pot. Gave a bit of bio-grow in the watering as well GC similar but large pot so less impact Others are fine so there ya go 11/24 Fed and watered

week 11 12/4 Slight nuet change based on leaf observations Changed the tent brought my problem child GSC to the fore to keep an eye on her. Better now but not thinking its ok yet GC looking better but half an eye on her as a heavy feeder. GG just looks good think these genetics are great. BB is spectacular ditto on the genetics GL is a real beauty watching her leaves for any sighs as she is eating hard and fast now. Less than a month to go God willing and the creek dont rise 12/5 pics 12/7 Upping nuets at feed tonight Heavy feeders (Green Crack and GSC) get a doubling of the bio-bizz to 10ml/gal All get 5ml of Soul Peak

12/11 Fade is upon us and hard Last top dressing last night, 1.5-3 grow to bloom ratio 7 gal got 5 TBS 5 gal got 4 TBS 3 gal got 2.5 TBS Penetrated the top layer of soil with a fork to give the nuets a better path into the pot I know it aint supposed to be time but the Bruce Banner is ready for a test on trics and psychoactivity, trics are 75% white a very few amber and about 20% clear so she comes out tomorrow. First harvest like this so our test case on cutting early rest will go full 12/16 Testing the findings of a research paper that maintains peak THC is actually BEFORE the all white stage into the mixed stage with both milky and clear but well formed tricones. Goes along with the tradition that early harvest of sativas increases phychoactivity considerably. So test case Harvest pics later here she is today
