Day 26 - I have to say, so far I'm impressed with these genetics from Expert Seeds. I'm going to clip a couple of the large fan leaves from each plant over the next few days to get some light in to the newly forming lower branches. Day 27 - Still haven't watered them since the transplant 9 days ago. Letting the roots search out and grow, the soil is still pretty moist. I love happy roots! That being said, I'll probably give them their first drenching in a day or 2 when they're ready. Day 28 - Watered the girls tonight with tap, with 3/4 tsp per gallon Sensi CalMag Xtra added in and then ph'd to 6.5 It was their first watering since transplanting 10 days ago. Heights are as follows: Afghan Skunk 7" Blue Cheese 11" Gorilla SFV OG 10" EM1-1 7" EM1-2 9"

Day 29 - The girls seem happy to have been completely drenched last night. Gonna clip 2 more large fan leaves from each girl tonight and then top the tallest ones soon.

Day 36 - The 4 girls in the tent, Afghan Skunk, Blue Cheese, Gorilla SFV OG and Expert Mac 1-1 are really kicking ass. Afghan and Expert Mac 1-1 are a few inches smaller with very close spacing between the nodes while the other 2 are leggy and stretchy. Tent is getting tight, they will upgrade into a 4x4 soon. Meanwhile, Expert Mac 1-2 is under a cheap light in a spare bedroom and is very sparse and leggy as expected from the lack of concentrated quality light. She's happy though and that's all that matters. 😁 Day 37 - Tonight I'm gonna top a lot of tops, pretty much all the upper ones that I haven't yet done. I'm gonna defoliate a bit too, hope I don't shock these girls too much. 🙏 Day 38 - Last night I defoliated quite a bit of leaves from the girls, and topped many of the upper tops also. They seem to be doing ok after the pruning Day 39 - Watered tonight with de-chlorinated tap with 3/4 tsp per gallon Sensi Cal Mag Xtra added and then ph'd to 6.6 Day 40 - She is looking healthy. Mutley had to come and inspect the grow.

Day 43 - After these pictures were taken I watered all 4 girls with de-chlorinated tap with 2 tsp per gallon Grow Big, ph'd to 6.48 Also, I gave all 4 girls their final veg mode defoliation. They look a whole lot different now 😶 Day 44 - Exposed a lot of internal bud sites after last night defoliation Day 45 - Girls are needing some elbow room. Day 46 - They are looking ok, may need to defoliate just a few leaves before moving to the 4x4 Day 47 - I'm gonna pull the girls out of the tent and defoliate some more tomorrow. Will probably move them to their new bigger digs next weekend. 🙏 Day 48 - Gave the girls their final pre-flower defoliation. Also watered them with de-chlorinated tap water ph'd to 6.61 I have never done 4 plants in my 3x3 for a full veg, and I won't do it again. These girls are starving for more room. I wasn't able to tie and spread out the branches so the yield won't be as big as it could have been. Hey, if you don't experiment you don't learn and grow. Day 49 - Looking forward to moving these girls into a bigger tent this weekend

I'll continue to veg for a week or so then flip over to flower. 🙏 Day 51 - Going to have to water the 2 biggest girls tonight which are the Blue Cheese and the Gorilla SFV OG.

These girls are going into a larger space tomorrow Day 53 - Re-arranged the girls after the chemdawg clone harvest. Afghan Skunk.

Day 57 - Flipped them over to flower mode 🙏 Day 58 - With the foliage these girls have combined with the low humidity we've been having, these girls are really drinking it up.

Day 99 - The girls a loving life with a couple weeks or so left to go. They are definitely in the home stretch, woohoo. The combination of the 4 girls in the 4x4 provides the most bizarrely cool smell, can't really describe it.

Day 106 - Well I figure to start chopping them down in about a week if the trichomes agree. So I'm switching to just good old fashioned H2O from the tap, de-chlorinated and ph'd to 6.5 from here on out. That will make 3 waterings at least, starting with tonights, as all 5 girls got watered this evening. Day 107 - Expert Mac 1-2's buds are getting so heavy I'm going to need to stake up a few of the branches with only a week or less to go Day 108 - Weather is unseasonably warm here the last couple of days through tomorrow, not ideal for budding plants in their final week. They look killer though 😁 Day 109 - Watered the girls tonight with de-chlorinated tap ph'd to 6.5 Day 110 - Man I can't wait to try these. Trimming's going to suck though. Starting the harvest in three days 🙏 Day 111 - So close I can almost taste it already! Day 112 - Watered the girls tonight with de-chlorinated tap ph'd to 6.5 Trim jail begins tomorrow 😉 Day 116 - 3 trimmed and hanging, 2 to go. Taking a break on trimming for a fun night out at a jazz club tomorrow, resuming on Sunday.

Well the Expert Mac 1-2 has been harvested and trimmed! She was the solo girl in the 3x3. It took me and my neighbor/grow partner and another friend around 3 hours to trim this girl up. Super sticky and fragrant! edit: Just trimmed up Expert Mac 1-1 and she is hanging to dry. Expert Mac 1-2 is curing. 30.8 ounces wet weight between the two girls.

Another fun-filled 😐 night of trimming. It started out with myself and my neighbor/grow partner and ended with just me, but 4 hours later the Blue Cheese is trimmed and hanging to dry.

Well, this one was fairly easy to trim, only a little over 3 hours for 3 of us. She's definitely the smallest of the 5 plants, but there are plenty of hefty buds. Nice smell, almost a little lemony. No real skunk smell, and not real sticky on the scissors.

Well it was me and my neighbor/grow buddy trimming away again tonight. It took us a little over 3 hours for this girl. She might be the stickiest of the 4 strains.
