Day 1/Notes: Placed 3 seeds into a plastic shot glass with distilled water. The shot glass was placed on a heating pad to create warm conditions. Seeds will remain in shot glass for 12-48 hours until they crack open or show the tap root.
Day 2/Notes: After 24 hours, all 3 seeds cracked open and germinated. Placed seeds into rapid rooters with tail facing down. Rapid rooters were soaked in distilled water and reamed slightly so the seeds wouldn’t drown. Rapid rooters shouldn’t be soaking wet. They should be slightly moist at touch and shouldn’t drip when squeezed lightly. Rooters were placed in a Humidity tray with distilled water sprinkled on the bottom of tray to raise the humidity. Heating pad is still on creating a warm humid environment.
Day 3/Notes: All 3 seeds are now starting to rise from their rapid rooters with strong looking roots. I will be leaving the seeds in the humidity dome with the heating pad to promote further growth. I have now also turned on the grow light to 25% to prevent the seeds from stretching out too far.
Day 4/Notes: Seeds #1 and #2 had a bit of helmet head and helped them slightly take it off. Seed #3 still trying to push out of the rapid rooter but looks like it’s coming. First set of leaves on seed #1 look a bit purple/brownish. Will keep an eye on it in the coming days. Will be transferring all 3 seedlings into a solo cup on day 6 to allow further root growth and start veg.
Day 5/Notes: All seeds were out of their shells and roots were coming out of the bottom of the rapid rooters. Moved the all rapid rooters into a solo cup with new double buffered coco which is a 60% coco to 40% perlite ratio. Seed #1 leaves are gaining in size and appears to be recovering. Seed#2 cotyledons have now opened but still no sign of first set of leaves. Seed #3 is a bit behind but looks to be on the right path.
Day 6/Notes: Seed#1 continues to grow strong. Haven’t had any issues with this one. Seed#2 has cotyledons but doesn’t have it’s first set of leaves. Will continue to grow her but from what I’ve read the outcome may not be good. Seed#3 which was the slowest of the bunch now has its first set of leaves.
Day 7/Notes: Seed#1 has grown nicely. Starting to show signs of its second pair of leaves coming in. Seed#2 still no sign of leaves. Seed#3 leaves grew incredibly fast compared to day 6. Bouncing strong.
Germination week end: At the end of germination and start of veg week 1 I will likely get rid of seed #2. I will only be using 1 plant for my 2x2 tent and I’ll have a better idea of which plant I will be keeping by the end of week 2 or 3 of veg. The other plant I will be giving to a family member to continue the grow.
Feed: Jacks 321 nutrient is a salt based mix measured in grams. Grow diaries didn't have the option to put grams so I put it as ml.
Grow Day 8 / Veg Day 1 Notes: Starting Veg I’m left with 2 seedlings out of 3. The seedling I got rid of never grew leaves and didn’t show any signs of developing any. Starting Veg I have begun feeding Jacks 321 nutrient mix with silica. Currently feeding at 50% strength for the 1st week and will be feeding at 75% strength week 2 and 100% strength week 3.
Grow Day 9 / Veg Day 2 Notes: Veg looks good so far. Feed hasn’t affected plants so all good so far. 2nd set of leaves growing on both plants so expect more growth in the coming days.
Grow Day 10 / Veg Day 3 Notes: Plant #1 looks a bit light green. Going to increase jacks 321 nutes to full strength on next feed and see how she reacts. I’ve heard of people running jacks full strength all grow with no issues. Plant #2 also growing 2nd set of leaves now. Color looks good so far but will also feed full strength feed.
Grow Day 11 / Veg Day 4 Notes: Both plants have been fed nutrients at full strength. After feeding at 50% and noticing light green leaves I decided to feed at full strength.
Grow Day 12 / Veg Day 5 Notes: plants continue to grow and starting to look a darker green. Will be feeding recharge tomorrow to introduce some microbes into the coco.
Grow Day 13 / Veg Day 6 Notes: Plant #1 has some curling leaves on its first true leaves but 3 fingered leaves are coming in. Plant #2 looks healthy but just a bit small. Fed recharge today which will be doing once a week. Will be looking for microbes benefits.
Grow Day 14 / Veg Day 7 Notes: Starting to feed the plants daily to see how growth is affected. Being that I’m in 60% coco 40% perlite I’m not worried about root rot. Will be setting up dripper this week being that I have to feed daily. Both plants have a vibrant green since feeding jacks at full strength.
Jacks Hydro: Please note that these nutrients are measured in grams. Im using ml in place of grams being that grow diaries does not have grams option.
Feeding: Jacks Hydro, magnesium sulfate and calcium nitrate with silica blast daily and feeding recharge once a week.
Grow: Day 15 / Veg: Day 8 Notes: Plants are starting to take off with the daily feeding. With plenty of oxygen in the roots I expect they have a strong healthy root system. Still feeding at full strength and not showing signs of toxicity.
Grow: Day 16 / Veg: Day 9 Notes: Growth is strong on both plants. Colors look good other then slight purple shade on the stems of the first set of 3 fingered leaves. I believe it’s slight light stress being that the main trunk and under the stems are green. Not too worried about it.
Grow: Day 17 / Veg: Day 10 Notes: Raised my light to promote upward growth and appears to be working. Plants continue to grow strong and look healthy.
Grow: Day 18 / Veg: Day 11 Notes: Plants are continuing to grow strong. Purple stems leave are due to light tan. Main stalk looks good and underside of leaves also look good.
Grow: Day 19 / Veg: Day 12 Notes: Plants seem slightly droopy. Will watch this in the coming days. On plant #1 the first set of 5 fingered leaves are starting to show. Also purple stems are still there but the stalk remains green. Could be genetics or sun tanned.
Grow: Day 20 / Veg: Day 13 Notes: Plants are growing nicely. Starting to stretch up. Noticing roots coming out of drainage holes at the bottom of the cups. Will likely transfer into final container end of veg week 3.
Grow: Day 21 / Veg: Day 14 Notes: Happy with how the plants have turned out so far. No visible deficiencies and solid growth. Will be transferring and topping at the end of grow day 28 / Veg day 21
Jacks Hydro: Please note that these nutrients are measured in grams. Im using ml in place of grams being that grow diaries does not have grams option.
Feeding: Jacks Hydro, magnesium sulfate and calcium nitrate with silica blast daily and feeding recharge once a week.
Grow: Day 22 / Veg: Day 15 Notes: Plants are looking great. Start of veg week 3 couldn’t look better. Will be transferring and topping at the end of this week. Planning to Veg 6 to 8 weeks.
Grow: Day 23 / Veg: Day 16 Notes: Plant #1 looks to be slowing its growth from the areal view but under the leaves the nodes are starting to grow and she’s starting to stretch upward. Plant #2 has really exploded in the past couple days. Roots are now coming out of the bottom of the cup for both plants and are due for a transplant.
Grow: Day 24 / Veg: Day 17 Notes: Both plants now have roots bursting out of the bottom. Contemplating on transplanting my final 1 plant into final 3 gallon pot.
Grow: Day 25 / Veg: Day 18 Notes: Transplanted plant #1 into 3 gallon pot. Had to give away plant #2 due to limited space. Going to good hands. Added some Mykos to root zone to help with the transplant.
Grow: Day 26 / Veg: Day 19 Notes: Plant #1 took to the transplant well. She showed 0 signs of shock and is continue to grow.
Grow: Day 27 / Veg: Day 20 Notes: Plant axillary branches are really starting to stretch out. Will be topping at the start of week 4.
Grow: Day 28 / Veg: Day 21 Notes: Decided to Top on the final day of Veg week 3. Will be starting week 4 of Veg with a topped plant as a way to see progress better.

Feeding: Jacks Hydro, magnesium sulfate and calcium nitrate with silica blast daily and feeding recharge once a week.
Grow: Day 29 / Veg: Day 22 Notes: Starting week 4 of Veg with a fresh top. Topped day 27 and plant doesn’t seem to be shocked one bit. Top set of leaves grew nearly double overnight since the top.
Grow: Day 30 / Veg: Day 23 Notes: Noticed she was getting droopy with only 1 watering a day. Increased watering schedule to 2 times a day. Will keep an eye on how she takes it.
Grow: Day 31 / Veg: Day 24 Notes: She is absolutely loving 2 waterings a day. Also started some low stress trained by tucking the big fan leaves under the emerging branches.
Grow: Day 32 / Veg: Day 25 Notes: Continuing to grow strong and not showing any deficiencies. Will be going on vacation for a few days. Will continue diary once I return.
Grow: Day 33/ Veg: Day 26 Notes: Vacation.

Grow: Day 37 / Veg: Day 30: Did my defoliation along with LST. I have been cutting lower branch sights so the plant can focus on upward growth. Have around 3 more weeks of Veg before flipping.
Grow: Day 38 / Veg: Day 31: Plant is recovering well. Tops of the plants already started to look up towards the light. Will tie down more if needed.
Grow: Day 39 / Veg: Day 32: Plant has fully recovered from LST with a beautifully even canopy. As she begins to stretch more I will be pulling her down more and more to allow lower nodes to catch up to create even more tops. Will continue lollipoping anything I believe isn’t worth keeping.
Grow: Day 40 / Veg: Day 33: Fully recovered from LST again. Will be doing more LST in the coming days to allow center branches to really stretch out.
Grow: Day 41 / Veg: Day 34: Did more LST. Really trying to allow light to penetrate the center of this plant. Will continue doing this until center branches are even with outer colas.
Grow: Day 42 / Veg: Day 35: She is increasingly getting better and better at recovering from training. Have a beautiful flat canopy.

Grow: Day 86-91 / Flower: Day 30-35 - Not much change throughout the week. Haven’t seen much growth in the bud sites yet and continue to defoliate lightly as needed. Plant is still on its same feed schedule and continues to be incredibly perky. Still waiting for the flower growth to really come in. Ending week 5 I’m a bit disappointed in the flower size but at the same time excited at how many trichomes the plant has produced.

Feeding: Jacks Hydro, magnesium sulfate and calcium nitrate with silica blast daily and feeding recharge once a week. Feeding Tribus original and lumia 2 times a week.
Week - This week I saw massive flower bulk. While I was cutting lower flower sites that were very airy I found 3 Nanners on 3 sites. As a precaution I cut all the lower sites on the canopy. I’ve been watching the plant closely. With 2 weeks left in flower I'm hoping these were the only ones. Along with bulking flowers, the terpenes have been coming in extremely strong. Smells consist of vanilla and slight citrus. Also had to add string as the branches were starting to droop down from the top weight of the flowers.
Jacks Hydro: Please note that these nutrients are measured in grams. Im using ml in place of grams being that grow diaries does not have grams option.
Feeding: Jacks Hydro, magnesium sulfate and calcium nitrate with silica blast daily and feeding recharge once a week. Feeding Tribus original and lumia 2 times a week.
Week - Hit slight calcium deficiency. Won’t be doing a flush due to only having 1 week left in flower based on how the trichomes look. She is really filling in nicely and getting heavier every day.
2-19-22 : decided to start flush. Seeing a bit of amber with a mix of cloudy and clear trichomes. She has about I would say 7-10 days left in flower.
Over all great grow with very little issues. Ran into a hermie issue late in flower but was able to catch and manage it without getting any seeds in my flowers. Over all beautiful flowers with a boat load of trichomes. Final Trimmed weight was 184 grams of flower with 110 grams of trim that will be used to make hash.
