ViparSpectra P2000 Cream Brûlée

Day 0 - The shell was just starting to crack and taproot was starting to poke out so went and moved her into her 3 gallon fabric pot and put her in the tent. I’ll keep the clear plastic top over her for a bit to keep the humidity up and I’ll start day 1 when she’s standing up through the soil. First full run with the ViparSpectra P2000 so looking forward to running this thing and thank you to them for trusting me to run their lights. Starting my three little ones off at 50% intensity and will go from there. Day 1 - We have life! She finally popped through the soil today so I’ll officially start counting her days. Gave her a light foliar spray with FOOP Mist and put her cover over her for a bit higher humidity (cut the bottom off a 2 liter bottle). Day 2 - All going well and looking nice and healthy and not much to speak of these early weeks. Gave her a foliar spray and put the cover back over her. Day 3 - Nothing new to report on today, early boring stages. Gave her her daily foliar spray before her bedtime and out her humidity cap back over her. Day 5 - All going well and nothing much to update, still very early in her growth. Gave her a foliar spray and put her cover back on.

Day 9 - Into week 2 and haven’t updated in a few days due her just getting started and not much happening. I did give her about 100ML’s of water and veg nutes about 2 inches around her base, then put her cover back on her and letting her be. Day 10 - She was getting a bit stretchy so figured it was time to add a bit more soil to the pot and is filled pretty much to the top now. Other than that, I gave her a foliar spray and put her cover back on. Day 11 - All still going well and still not much to speak of, getting a little bit more growth going on but not much else happening. Gave her another 100ML’s of water and nutes today and put her cover back on. Day 12 - Another day and another update where not much is happening. Pretty much just gave her a look and her foliar spray and moved her back into the tent. Day 14 - The end of week 2 and all still going well. I’m following FOOPCanna’s schedule and upped the nutes a bit this week but still have her about 100-150ML’s of water. Put her cover back on and back in the tent.

Day 15 - Starting week 3 today and she’s looking good after getting a watering with more nutes yesterday. I just took her out today to look her over and then put her back into the tent. I left her cover off for right now, want to make sure they get a couple hours of fresh air before putting the humidity cover back on for the night. Day 16 - Nothing much new or to speak of today. Just gave her a nice foliar spray and put her humidity cover back on. Day 17 - Still moving along and nothing much new today. Gonna give her a bit of water and nutes tomorrow and just continued with the foliar spray today. Day 18 - Another day and not much to speak of but I am hoping I’ll be able to start some LST within the next week or so. I’m normally starting between now and day 21 but I started counting the days from the day she was out in the pot and not when her first set of leaves appeared so hoping to start no later than day 28. Gave her a bit of water and nutes tonight as well. Day 19 - Day 19 - Just gave her a foliar spray and put her back into the tent. Nothing much happening with her right now. Hoping here soon she’ll start exploding.

Day 22 - Starting week 4 today and she got a good amount of growth, so went ahead and started LST today, we’ll see how she recovers. She wasn’t quite ready for water today so will give her another day or two before giving her some and nutes. Day 23 - She’s up and standing tall again but got a bit of a droop to her, probably should of given her water yesterday cause she dried up pretty quickly. Gave her about 300ML’s with nutes tonight so that should perk her back up. It’s almost sleep time for her so I’ll see how she’s doing in the morning. Day 24 - She definitely needed water yesterday and she was perked right up today so not gonna go as long between waterings with this girl. Went ahead and tied her back down again to keep all the lower stuff opened up to the lights. Will probably give her another day or two, at the latest, before giving her more water and nutes. Day 25 - Nothing to speak of today, just a few updated pics. Day 27 - Did a little more LST with this girl today and she was ready for some water and nutes. Upped her water intake and got the entire pot of soil wet today. Hopefully now she’ll really start stretching. Day 28 - The end of week 4 and did a bit of adjusting and training today. She’s still pretty compact but hopefully with the training, I’ll be able to get her spread out a bit more and set up for flower.

Day 29 - Starting week 5 and did some more training with her today and she’s definitely starting to shape up. I brought the foliar sprays down to once a week now and she got one tonight. Should be ready for water either tomorrow or the next day. Day 30 - Nothing much to speak of today but she’ll be getting some water and nutes tomorrow. Day 31 - She’s starting to get a bit of stretching now and spreading out a bit so did a little adjusting to her tie downs and she was ready for water. She ended up getting about a third of a gallon of water and nutes. I also dimmed the lights just a bit to try and get her stretching a bit more. Day 33 - Did some more adjusting today and gave her a nice foliar spray. Nothing much happening other than working on the LST and trying to get her set up for flower. Day 35 - The end of week 5 today and while doing some LST with her, I screwed up and snapped her main stem. I taped her up with some plumbers tape and hoping she’ll recover and be ok. She’s definitely starting to stretch a bit and spreading out nicely. Other than that, she’ll be getting some fresh water and nutes tomorrow.

Day 36 - Starting week 6 today and after snapping her main stem in almost half yesterday, the tape seems to be helping, she’s already turned back up to the light. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that she stays healthy and doesn’t stunt on me. Did a few other adjustments to the pipe cleaners and gave her about a third of a gallon of water and nutes. Day 37 - Did more adjusting to the pipe cleaners and got her spread out even more now. Check the pH of the soil and it’s sitting at 6.6 so all is good. She’s really throwing out some pistils now too so should be kicking into full flower her soon. Day 39 - Did a little more adjusting to the pipe cleaners today and she’s spreading out nicely now. She should be about ready for water tomorrow or the next day. Day 41 - She was ready for some water today so she got a half gallon with her first round of bloom nutes today. Was gonna hold off one more watering but decided she was ready now. Did some small adjusting to her pipe cleaners as well. Day 42 - The end of week 6 today and all still going well. Nothing much to speak of and didn’t do much of anything with her today. A few pipe cleaner adjustments and that’s about it.

Day 43 - Starting week 7 today and had to do quite a few adjustments to her pipe cleaners today. This is her first full week of flower and she’s really branching out nicely and will be ready for a full half gallon of water and nutes tomorrow. Day 44 - Gave her a half gallon of water and nutes today, pH’d to 6.6. Did a couple of adjustments again on the pipe cleaner and she should be good for the finish now. Day 45 - Nothing much happening at the moment, though she is looking a little droopy today but I’ve noticed she always seems to be like this the day after giving her water so she should be back to normal tomorrow. Day 47 - Nothing much new today, she did perk up from the watering the other day and all is looking good. She’s still got another couple days before she’ll be ready for more water. Day 48 - Did some more adjusting to the pipe cleaners today to try and keep her a big shorter, she was really starting to get leggy. She’ll be ready for a feeding tomorrow as well. Day 49 - The end of week 7 and just like the others, she got two thirds of a gallon of water and nutes today. Everything that was adjusted yesterday are all standing back up and looking at the lights. Just starting to get a little bit of frost building and looking forward to watching her the next few weeks.

Day 50 - Starting week 8 and all looks good and starting to get a little bit of frost going on. I’ll probably lower the light just a bit in the coming days. ViparSpectra recommends 14-18” and it’s about 20” right now, so will probably go down just a couple inches tomorrow. Day 51 - Nothing much to report today other than I lowered the light and it’s now at the recommended maximum distance of 18”. I’ll give her 24 hours like that and if she likes it, I’ll gradually go closer to 14” to try and find the distance that’s perfect for her to flower. Day 52 - Nothing much to update today, she’s a little behind the other girls on water so she’ll need another couple of days before she’s ready. Day 53 - All still looks good and she’s still not quite ready for water and feed yet. Judging by the weight of the pot, she still has another 2 days so will probably fill her up on Saturday. Day 55 - She was finally ready for water today so she got a gallon of water and nutes pH’d to 6.6. Other than that, just did a little bit of leaf tucking but not much. She’s pretty spread out nicely and all the bud sites are getting hit nicely with the light. Day 56 - Then end of week 8 and nothing much to report today. Other than that, not much else going on but starting to see some frost developing now.

Day 57 - Starting week 9 today and still not much to speak of. She got some water and nutes yesterday and all looking good from that. Buds are developing nicely and hoping she’ll start packing on some frost soon. Day 58 - Nothing major to update other than removing a few more fan leaves that were in the way. Good on water for another couple of days. Day 59 - Nothing major for this girl today, just got a few updated pictures and checking to see if she needs water but looking like tomorrow she’ll be ready. Day 62 - She was finally ready for some water so gave her a full gallon plus the FOOP nutes to go with it. Other than that, not much else happening. Day 63 - The end of week 9 and looking a bit droopy but she just got water yesterday and she tends to be droopy the next day, she should be better tomorrow. Other than that, nothing much else happening.

Day 64 - Starting week 10 and nothing much new, she’s definitely fattening up some of her buds and looking good for snapping her main stem while doing LST early on. So far, I’m pretty happy with the results and looking forward to her final couple of weeks. Day 65 - Just daily updated pictures, nothing happening at the moment. Day 66 - Just some updated pics today, should be needing water in another day or two. Day 67 - She was definitely ready for water today so got a gallon with nutes. She’s starting to look like she doesn’t have a whole lot of time left so starting to draw the nutes down and will start flushing her soon. Day 70 - The end of week 10 and week 11 will probably be her final week. She’s starting to fade out and her trichs are all milky but I’d like to get some amber in her before the chop. Her next watering will be plain pH’d water to start flushing her out.

Day 71 - Starting week 11 today and pretty much just waiting for a bit of amber trichs in her, she’s just about done. I’ll probably give her a flush tomorrow and then just let her dry out before giving her the chop. Day 73 - Gave her her last watering of plain pH’d water today and she’ll be getting chopped up on Friday. She is frosty and stinky but not quite as stinky as my Northern Lights. Trichs are all milky and about 15% amber, just about where I like them.

She was a very easy strain to grow and took very well to all LST. I did have an issue early on where I snapped her main stem almost completely off. I used some plumbers tape to keep her together and she recovered like nothing even happened to her. Definitely recommend growing this girl, especially beginners.
