Welcome back to The ChroniCles of MrStinky. We are back in the game, this time with 2x Auto Big Cheese, graciously supplied by @SeedsMafia Dons for the competition. Wednesday 29th they went in a glass of water in the evening. Thursday 30th, approx 18 hours later I put them on paper towel (covered with a bowl) and put on top of the grow tent to keep warm. Before that, also on Wednesday 29th I mixed up the substrate - BioBizz Light Mix, RQS Easy Boost Organic nutrients, with fungus and bacteria - then sprayed it with about 1.3L of water with tiny amount BioBizz Root Juice, put the pots in the tent and flipped the light on to cycle to warm the soils through, wake up the bacteria and give the seeds sat on top of the tent a constant warm temperature to crack and send out a root. The seeds both cracked Friday morning and went into soil, as of 23:00 last night both were sprouted - 100% success rate. The nutrients did good job last time so fingers crossed for more great results. Not using the Root Juice before but thought very gentle application may help with speedy sprouting and development. Watering (pH'd every time) - will be about 200ml a day or so this week, a few drops trickled at base of plant, the rest sprayed across the surface - encourage lateral root growth and stop the top few cm drying out too much. 20/4 cycle start to finish under Mars TS600. Both will be LST'd as usual. See ya next week!

Chronicles of MrStinky Chapter 3 verse 2. Very easy week - watered them couple of times (pH every time), poking my head in a few times a day and all seems good. Watering style a bit different to last grow - last time I was doing 150ml a day in little hand spray was very boring and time consuming so I gave them 0.6L two days ago (big sprayer) and will give them more tomorrow - not looking over watered. Trying lazy wet / dry cycle all the way through, mixing small amounts of water with nutes / boosters is a pain in ass to pH and the organic nutes / boosters tend to spoil after day or so, also fabric pots so no major worries about root O2 & moisture levels. Using the Bio Bizz root juice 2ml/L and will increase to 3ml/L from tomorrow. I have some RQS veg boosters I will start using in a week, also some Bio Bizz Alg a Mic and maybe some Bio Heaven (not decided if to purchase yet). Light cycle 20/4 - it worked great last time and it is keeping temperature more stable as everything cool down for winter. Lefty2 is also bigger than Righty2 - I wonder if is coincidence or environmental? The Left plant from the last grow was bigger too...time will tell. Lovely to watch them grow quickly, let's hope they grow strong. See ya next week!

Another easy week, this setup just looks after itself. All I have to do is water and top up my bacteria from time to time (maybe the odd booster here and there), it feels like cheating. I went away for 4 days and in that time one of the seedlings has become a monster and the other is quickly catching up. I gave them about 1L each before I went to see them through the time I was away and they look perfect, not under or over watered at all. Lefty2 = bigger plant Righty2 = smaller plant They look switched in this weeks diary as I was trying to see if there were any enviornmental factors helping plants on left of tent grow more than right of tent, it simply appears to be genetic and I swap them back into 'correct positions' next week. Lefty2 grow up to 15cm with a few nodes developed so I lash her down last night with some LST wire and opened her up to the light. Lefty2 looking very strong and healthy, I am expecting good things from her. Accidentally watered her with about 250ml of pH 9.50 and quickly washed it down with 500ml of pH 6.0 and she doesnt look to have suffered at all. Righty2 is a few days behind so hasn't had the LST treatment yet, if she doesnt grow up like Lefty2 I will probably not LST her and let her grow naturally, if she starts growing like crazy she will also be getting tied down. Root Juice - seems to be doing its thing? (Hard to tell with it being a soil grow, don't want to do digging) Added some alg a mic to reduce potential stress from LST for Lefty2 and just to give some more food for my microbes. Watering - as and when they need it (quite lazy with it this time, bigger waterings less often, even at this stage). RQS boosters - plants looking great so will start this weekend. Looking at getting more BioBizz boosters to supplement the RQS base nutrients once the RQS booters run out in a few weeks. Hope you all have a great week, see ya next time!

This week was so easy I don't know what to write. Lefty2 taking very well to LST and I think she will be a big girl, going to have to start anchoring her growth down outside of the pot so we will see that next week. Righty2 - slower off the mark and slower to respond to LST but she is starting to take off - she had good growth in the week so I tied her down too, maybe another short bushy pheno? Gave them some RQS veg booster with some rootjuice and alg a mic and they loved it - watering very easy, 1L every few days now. See ya next week!

Another easy week. I feel I am beginning to master the art of benign neglect, all I did this week was take a peek once a day and water when they needed it, and slightly rearranged the LST. It almost grows by itself this time. They have responded really well to the LST, Righty2 caught up and they are now approximately the same size with the same watering requirements. Both girls showed their pistils a few days ago and have started stretching, they have some sativa in the mix and I am expecting them to get tall. Tomorrow I will add some Easy Bloom veg booster 1/2 tab to 3L water, 3ml/L root juice, 2ml/L algamic, couple g of bacteria and watch them explode. That's it for now, happy growing to all. See ya next week!

This is so easy it feels like cheating - it was another good & easy week and the girls are officially in flowering. I was running out of RQS veg booster, then almost accident I ended up with full new set of BioBizz and mixed up some potions. The standard potion so far: 4L water - 2L per plant, split in 2 x 1L waterings about 20 minutes apart - it seems the soil saturates better that way; instead of 2L at one time I give 1L, have a smoke, give another 1L. 1/2 tab Easy Grow - RQS Veg Booster (now all used) 1ml / L bio heaven 1.5ml / L root juice 0.5ml / L top max 1 ml / L acti vera 2 ml / L Alg a mic Next week I will change amounts slightly as RQS booster is all gone, maybe give tiny bit of calmag as preventative now we hit flower. The girls love the mix and they are looking like they will explode during the stretch - I am hoping they are good and big in the next few weeks, the smell of tiny budlets is amazing, like sweeties and battery acid but they don't Stink yet. Have a good week and happy growing everyone, see you next time!

An easy week! The LST got tightened up as the stretch has slowed down which needed to be done before they finally harden off. They are loving the BioBizz potion I am mixing up for them although Righty2 might be slowly be wanting some P&K, I will keep an eye on her progress. They look very similar but Lefty2 is already more frosty and smelling like a fruity pheno, I am looking forward to indulging in a few weeks. I was expecting taller due to the sativa genetics, maybe they will stretch a little bit more yet. I will give them a tidy around their ankles to get rid of rubbish that is wasting energy. Thinking of getting a bigger tent and putting the 2 more seedlings in there soon to start a rolling harvest every month or so, we will see how that goes. See ya next week!

Going well so far! I was away 5 days and girls got a bit spotty so they are on their way to maturity, I think they are fattening nicely and under LED 20/4 - I took action with small CalMag and PK dose and small bacteria & fungi top up, we will see how it goes in next few days, if symptoms increase I will up the medicine dose. Apart from that small bump all nice and easy, 2L water in 3/4 days, my temps cool at moment so maybe will keep them smaller than full potential but we will see. See ya next week!

Starting to Stink around here! I have managed to slow the deficiency progression - the damage has been done but Righty2 most affected plant is fattening and has about 50% green foliage. The symptoms have stopped building so quickly, but with organic, def correction is a bit slower than I would like, and I am going slow incase there is still dry nutrient remaining in the pot - def needs correction, but I don't want to overfeed to correct. I think LST made them very hungry - the dry RQS nutes were supposed to last 12 weeks and they made it to about week 5 before deficiencies happened, then correcting PK & CaMg organically is a slow fix - I have to be careful adding liquid nutes to correct (Biobizz) due to the remaining nutrients in the pot (if any are left) - scary balance. I think another 2-3 weeks and it will be harvest time - I want to catch these plants with very white trichs and no amber. New Mars TS1000 arriving soon, I will finish them under that when it arrives & if I get new tent in time they will finish with more room and a better light, maybe squeeze few more drops from them. See ya next week!

Another easy week, and the girls will be down in a couple days. I checked the tent this morning and they had gone milky with a couple of ambers. It is good job I have carbon extraction because the girls stink like the school outcast - a cross between hot piss, cheese and oranges. I quickly 'did a Dahmer' on them and am now keeping them locked up in the dark for a couple of days before I cut them up and prepare for consumption. Easy grow, and finished a lot faster than I expected going milky white at about day 63, chop day will be 65 or 66 - pretty much bang on the @SeedsMafia timeline on product description. Girls got a bit deficient round 2 to 3 weeks ago, I thought nutrient related but also I think terminal phase kicked in earlier than I expected - a higher levels of nutes didn't seem to stop the spread of yellowing (slowed it a little) despite otherwise good conditions (temps, pH, RH etc.) See you in a couple days for harvest.

The plants were easy to grow, a small-medium size but smell delicious - I had 3 seeds, and planted 2. I have the 3rd seed in a paper towel ready to go for my next run. Seemed to get a bit deficient around week 6 - extra PK and some CalMag helped them over the line, buds appeared outta no where, be patient with them - it looks like nothing there and they chunk up nice in last couple of weeks. I am looking forward to enjoying the crop. I managed to lose about 10 harvest pictures from my phone so this update is a bit light on content.
