I am new to the site so this diary is starting towards the end. It is my first indoor grow and alot of fun.
Watering 5g of Bloom Baby Bloom every 2nd or 3rd day
Top dressed with chicken soil 2 weeks ago
I added some JR pics since folks seem to be interested that variety. It is my favorite too for whatever reason.
The Marty McFly is some sort of weird, 5 point leaves but built like an indica
I will have some more pics tonight.
It is getting a bit cold and dry in the tent. I think I let the ladies get a bit parched this weekend.
Thanks for the advice GD, I switch to water only for the ladies that are turning
I can use some help on this one. I am pretty new. The variety is called Hawaiian Staycation. It has done well and we are in the last week or so of flowering. It got a bit dry in the tent and the leaves really yellowed. I plan on harvesting next week, should I be concerned?
I am using 10 gallon pots on this grow with a mix of soils including some from the chicken coop (aged). As a new grower I see a lot of advice to go smaller. To me larger systems are more stable, am I off?
As long as you veg the plant long enough to fill the pot out with its root then your all good 💪 pot size is preference. I use 3 gallon on auto flowers cause of the shorter veg times. Then 5 gallon pots with plants veg for roughly 2 months or 7 gallon for 3 months. Good Luck Bro 💪
We have chickens and ducks which provide all kinds of poop. I have a pile I use to age it for about a year. It is a mix of poo, oyster shell and broken down leaf mulch. I am not sure exactly what it adds as for as nutrients. Does anyone have a guess?
Chicken manure is the feces of chickens used as an organic fertilizer, especially for soil low in nitrogen.[1] Of all animal manures, it has the highest amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.[2] Chicken manure is sometimes pelletized for use as a fertilizer, and this product may have additional phosphorus, potassium or nitrogen added.[3] Optimal storage conditions for chicken manure include keeping it in a covered area and retaining its liquid, because a significant amount of nitrogen exists in the urine.[4]
Fresh chicken manure contains 0.5%[5] to 0.9% nitrogen,[6] 0.4%[4] to 0.5% phosphorus,[5] and 1.2% to 1.7 %potassium.[5] One chicken produces approximately 8–11 pounds of manure monthly.[6] Chicken manure can be used to create homemade plant fertilizer.[6]
Oyster shells are useful for your garden. Their calcium content helps to balance soil pH levels, improves nitrate uptake, aids enzyme formation and strengthens plant cell walls
Leaves are a significant source of nutrients such as Carbon, Nitrogen, Phosphorous, and Potassium.
The HS is really turning yellow and freaking me out a bit even though it is normal. Im hoping the trichomes turn soon.
I chopped a bunch of the yellow fan leaves on the HS and cannot believe how different it looks! I didnt wear a glove and now my fingers are stuck together. Typing this has been slow.
Everything else is going well. It has been very dry which has been challenging.

Happy Harvest Day!
Hawaiian Staycation by Mt Zion Seed Collective - Custom Breeder & Strain
This one plant was more than I was hoping for in total for my first tent grow. I think I had beginner's luck, low expectations, some good genetics and great weather. My tent is an unconditioned garage so outside temps make a difference. Things turned cool at the right time. I am going with the same method in my next grow so we will see what works twice...10g pots, chicken manure and dutch nutrients. I will update with weights soon, trimming is almost done. Thanks!
Buds are a week into curing and it is a really sweet smooth smoke, very stone. Buds took a bit to dry as they were thick sticky
The dry harvest break down is 75g of really nice buds sized between a big pill bottle and an inch across (that is around 43 hectares for those using the metric system)
90g of buds smaller than an inch and down to a pea (gazelle sized in metric)
Drying is almost complete. Im trimming and curing in the next day or two. I will post some close ups. It has some nice color.
I still have half the stalks to trim and all the leaf clean up to go

The dry harvest break down is 68g of really nice buds sized between a remote control and an inch across (that is around 43 hectares for those using the metric system)
91g of buds smaller than an inch and down to a pea (gazelle sized in metric)
It looks like a light cycle issue in the last 2 weeks of flowering forced it to hem. Luckily, it was in a small area and I harvested right after w/o realizing it. I have seeds in a few buds next to each other but the other 97% of the plant is seed free. I think I got lucky.
After looking at my tent after harvesting the marty and JR, I left a bottom vent cover off the tent a month or more ago and I think that is what caused the lower branch by the vent to herm.
It was an orphan I received out of cycle and resulted it in never leaving an @ 1/3 gallon pot. Im happy with the results considering the path and would love to find and try it again.
The alpine musk smell is very pungent for the amount of flower
I will try this one again. I fought the BT and HS from crowding it as best as I could but the JR still got screwed on side light.
The odor is incredible citrus and sweet like after it rains not candy
