Fairy Doping Scandal (AMS)

The replacement bean popped. She's a little behind, but she'll catch up. I have heard literally nothing about this strain, but the photos look great, and its lineage is great...and, like racing thoroughbreds, I often choose a strain based on the name... I gave them a little Superthrive to get them started off right and turned on the Viparspectra lights after a couple of days and all is right in the land of Pixies. 9/7: I started supplementing CO2 with a DIY sugar/wine yeast jug The bigger one is a little twisted looking, but still growing okay. 9/9: Fed them their first taste of nutrients today

9/10: The bigger one is the 2nd biggest seedling in the garden. The small one has great form and should catch up eventually. I'll prob transplant them in several more days. 9/11: I waited to long to transplant them and they have root problems to some degree or another...too wet for too long. I transplanted the bigger one into a 3 gallon pot and the smaller one into a 2.30 gallon pot, and observed about 50% brownish roots on the bigger one. 😕 I powdered the planting holes with myco, tricho, and other goodness. I added two Mars Hydro 150w lights, and a 60w 6500k LED panel light since they are all spread out now. The average CCT is still a little over 4800k, even though the Mars are a little warmer color temp than the Viparspectras. 9/12: Between the root problems and the transplant, they looked horrible, so I sprayed them with BoomBoom Spray today and will do a good root drench tomorrow with BushDoctor Boomerang. They looked better by the end of day, but still have a ways to go to get back on track... 9/17: I fed them boomerang only twice this week, and gave also them kangaroots yesterday. They are both looking strong and branching well. The smaller one is catching up quickly now. I'll prolly flip to 13/11 with emerson effect in the next couple of days.

9/18: New week...fed with Boomerang and Kangaroots 9/19: Applied Axiom harpin proteins and boomboom spray 9/20: Fed full strength TPS One...decent growth on both, but the small one seems more than just a couple of days behind. 9/21: Tucked a few leaves and took some photos and a video. Looking good. Just a couple more days of 24/0... 9/22: Switched out the 560w of 5000k CCT lighting for 720w of 3000k CCT lighting and set the timer for 12/12. Decided against 13/11 with emerson effect...trying to save a few bucks on electricity. I'm keeping the lights at 30" from the tops for a day or two. 9/23: The girls loved their first night of sleep...so perky!

9/25: Decent progress, though even the bigger one is getting a little behind the rest of the crop. The little one is actually just a few days from being caught up at the current rate of progress. 9/26: I fed today with TPS One and Kangaroots. I also started them on silica. Expecting them to start stretching... any minute now..... 9/27: Rotated the edge plants and tucked some leaves 9/28: Rotated the edge plants and tucked some leaves...little bit of stretching..much branching...

10/2: Fed today using One, Signal, Superthrive, Silica Gold, and added a little humic acid to the water. Rearranged, leveled the canopy, tucked some leaves, plucked a little necrotic shit from the bottoms.. I know many of you are wondering why I'm not defoliating... There may come a time when I find it necessary to remove some leaves, but at this stage of growth every leaf equates to more energy for the plant to produce bigger flowers, and I have no problems with airflow. I've found through the years that it makes the most sense to leave as much foliage as possible for as long as possible. When old leaves begin to die off, it is the right time to pluck them. And, by waiting for as long as possible to defoliate, the foliage you remove has had time to produce more THC, making it both viable and valuable for the bubble hash stash. 10/3: Happy Birthday girls! You're a month old today!!! (except the stragglers..your birthdays are over the next few days) Kicked on the FlowerPower UV light today..I currently have it set to run in 2 x half-hour increments during the day..will increase the length of exposure as much as possible over the next few weeks... 10/5: Fed today...added open sesame and sweet & sticky to the regimen.

10/9: I fed today using One, and Open Sesame at half strength, along with sweet & sticky, signal, and silica. Raised lights, leveled the canopy, plucked and tucked some leaves. 10/14: Fed today with One, and Open Sesame at half strength, along with sweet & sticky, signal, and silica, and kangaroots.

10/16: Stretching has slowed, but the fattening has begun... 10/18: Fed them on the 18th..switched to beastie blooms, increased signal, sweet & sticky, and added a little superthrive and Ca/Mg.. Also increased UVB exposure to 2 hours in their morning and late afternoon. I also foliar fed them with MicroLife Maximum Blooms while feeding their roots. Added 60w of 3000k subcanopy lighting.

10/23: Fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, silica, beastie bloomz, and a little ca/mg. 10/27: Fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, silica, beastie bloomz, kangaroots, and humic acid. Lowered the lights to no more than a foot from any cola..most are 7-9" away.

10/31: I fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, beastie bloomz, and silica. This strain smells really good..kinda exotic, but it's much leafier than anything else in the garden. They could probably have used less N throughout their lives.. 11/4: Fed with one, signal, sweet & sticky, beastie bloomz, silica, and humic acid. They are fattening up well now and starting to show me some trichomes. Very peculiar aroma....can't quite place it...

11/9: I fed them today. Started tapering off the One. Stopped giving Beastie Bloomz and started them on Cha Ching, plus the normal doses of silica, signal, and sweet & sticky.

11/17: I fed today but didn't have time for much of a photo session. Gave them One, Signal, Sweet & Sticky, Cha Ching, and started them on LiquidSoil. 11/19: Still fattening, and beginning to frost up as well.

11/22: I fed them both today with One, Signal, Sweeet & Sticky, Cha ching, and Liquidsoil. Neither plant is showing any signs of slowing down their pistil production and they are some really thick/fat pistils, so the buds are getting very fat now.😃

11/28: Both plants are still packing on the pistils and fattening up. One of them is showing off her linalool terpenes...smells like an old lady....lavender and maybe moth balls?? 11/29: I decided to feed them both one last time...they are both still covered in fresh white pistils. I gave them a full dose of Cha ching along with signal, sweet & sticky, and liquidsoil.

12/4: I flushed them both today and took some photos. Their buds have gotten so dense that the branches can't support any of them...added a bunch of bamboo stakes for support. I'll harvest them in another day or two. 12/5: Harvested both of them. Very heavy plants! 12/9: Still hanging to dry, and very well protected.😁

They ran a little longer than the other strains I grew this run, and could've probably gone a few more days, but I was out of time. They really fattened over the last few weeks and ended up being the heaviest pair of the crop. One of them is loaded with linalool terpenes and smells like your grandmother's lavender lotion, but the other one smells more dank.
