MrGrowthSpurt I started by soaking the seeds in a cup of water for 24 hrs, next I switched to the paper towel method and kept them in a tupperware container with the lid attached and sprayed with water for 24 hours, I planted them 7am today 9/29/21.

MrGrowthSpurt All 3 of my seeds had a form of helmut head, A#1 and A#2 had the shell on one of the first leaves(forget their name). I misted them and carefully removed with tweezers on day 4. A#3 sprouted with the shell fully attached. I've tried pulling it gently put too afraid to kill it so I spit on it(heard enzymes in saliva can help) and keep it moist by misting it throughout the day.
I watered them once since planting them (I fully saturated the soil before planting the seed). First feeding I gave each about a 1/3 of a gallon or a lil less. I mixed 1/8th of a tsb of Flora and 1/32 of a tsb of macro nutes, along with 2 ounces of Vermis Terra.

MrGrowthSpurt Week 2 went well they are progressing normally. A#3 is a bit smaller than the rest but not surprising being that it sprouted with the shell fully attached and the other 2 had a nearly 4 day headstart. I'm happy she made it and was able to break through the shell. It seems adding saliva to it did the trick. Feeding schedule has been poor due to my busy schedule, I've feed them twice this week both times I gave them each 1/3 of a gallon that was mixed with 1/4 tsp each of general hydroponics floramicro, micro, and 1/8 tsp bloom and 2 ounces of Vermis Terra. 18/6 ls, 84Β°/43% dt, 73Β°/53%nt, 6.3-6.5 ph

MrGrowthSpurt Week is progressing normally it appears that A#2 has some white powdery looking substance on its leaves, hope it's nothing serious. They only needed watering twice this week.
First establish if it's a fungus and what type then deal with it accordingly... and remember the only thing you want growing is the things that make Up the plant
Here's a closer shot of the white powdery stuff, only on one leaf right now. I'm going to keep an eye on it and try not to worry for now. If I suspect it's mildew, mold, or Fungus I will take action. What does it look like it could be to you all?
looks like discoloration... not powder. not consistent enough to be a leaf tunneler...
Looks like an ugly, early leaf.. probably grow out of it. you've got a hint of tip burn, but otherwise the leaves look healthy. Did some fertilized water drip on that leaf, maybe?
MrGrowthSpurt This week has progressed normally but it would appear that BBK a number three is growing some sort of white substance on his leaves on one side of the plant. I am unsure if it is some sort of deficiency, fungus, mildew, bacteria, genetic defect, or user defect. Other than that it would appear that plant is healthy and growing in fact it is taller and bigger than the other two. Helmet head BBK 83 is doing well considering that I thought it wasn't going to make it due to sprouting with the shell fully attached.

MrGrowthSpurt I tried my hand at lst this week, not sure if I did it completely correctly, but they are progressing fine. BBK A#3 still is showing signs of some sort of mutation as the leaves come out smaller and not symmetrical to the leaf growing on its opposite side. The other 3 sides appear to be growing regularly.
MrGrowthSpurt I'm still having to tie down the main cola to keep the canopy fairly even. I have a full tent and can't really move the plants or space them out. The all appear to be doing fine. No real bad signs of burn. BBK A#2 leaves are still growing deformed on one side and it appears the buds on that side are developing a bit slower.

MrGrowthSpurt I have a full tent running rn, not the best photos. My second run and I got a bit overzealous and have too many plants in the tent. Everything is running smoothly with the 3 BBK plants. The one that had deformed leaves is showing less white hairs only on the leaves that grew with the deformation, the leaves without it are developing their pistils normally (normal compared to the other 2). I got sloppy with my lst and let the main cola grow higher than the rest. Didn't feel like dealing with it.

MrGrowthSpurt It's a forest in my tent rn. Hard to take good pictures without having to pull plants out or rearrange things. I have wires set up holding up branches of my Caramelicious (not pictured see previous weeks). Call me lazy but this is what I got for the time being.
I installed an automatic drip system, set it to run 5 minutes every 2 days delivering 11 oz or 1/3 of a liter of ph'd water with VermisTerra Liquid Worm Castings.
I feed them every 3 days about 3 liters of water mixed with the GH Flora series listed above under nutrients.
I lst trained these bad boys but admittedly stop pulling the main cola down too soon hence why it still stretched quite a bit. Each should still yeild more than the first because extra bud sites were able to catch tons of sun and grow. Since it's fall the temps are in perfect conditions so I'm curious to see if the buds are as fluffy as my first run which I started mid summer and couldn't really control heat or humidity.

MrGrowthSpurt She is continuing to bud and fatten. Same watering schedule. I'm noticing slight burn on the tips of the fan leaves, which is weird because I give them half the amount recommended. I am starting a new, feeding schedule......feed them plain ph'd water 2 times and nutes once.

MrGrowthSpurt The week went by smoothly, I fed them 2 times with plain tap water ph'd mixed with VermisTerra Liquid Worm Castings. I can't wait to harvest and see how much more/less each plant yeilds compared to my first run where I did not perform lst. Unlike the last run this time around not many of the fan leaves have yellowed and fell off. I must be doing something right.

MrGrowthSpurt The weeks are running smoothly and so fast. They look ready now, however I'm going to let them rippen a bit more.
BBK #2 is growing buds in the form of little balls. BBK#3 buds are looking pretty decent despite a quarter of the plant growing with twisted fan leaves. I plan on harvesting Week 15-16.
Just like the first time I grew this magnificent plant, it was a breeze! Pretty much plant, water and watch grow. I did LST on these three and from looks it appear to be slightly more than the first one in which I just let it grow naturally. I have them drying as we speak and will cure for another couple of weeks or so. I will update with final dry weight. Not sure how my wattage shows 1000 but it's actually 345 total watts from 2 different LED lights.
Update:. Each plant yeilded roughly 30 grams a piece for a total weight of 92.8 grams about 3.25 ounces. I have it in mason jars curing. My next grow I'm up by the biggest pot I can find. The largest I've used is 3 gallon which appears to yeild about an ounce per plant based on my experience.
Extra update: This shit smells like straight gasoline!!! I always wondered why people would say "I got that gas"......now I do. The first plant I grew had more of a citric piney smell and light on the gas smell. This batch has the complete opposite, little citric piney and heavy on the diesel gas smell, I love it.
Looking nice broπ€π»
Looking amazing mate! Keep it up π€π»
