1st Grow Chocolope

LastOpus Starting the journal week 3. Just found the site and wanted to try journaling. Seed is IGLM Chocolope fem. Germination was aprx 4 days. The plant was topped 17 Jan. Using a cheap LED light waiting for a KIND 220 to arrive. 27 Jan: Plant is recovering well from topping. Topping was performed 17 Jan today there is good growth on the two emerging stems. Watering just enough to get some run off. I used half of the recommended dose of a 2 part nute SENSI. Alternating clear water with nute water every other feeding. 3 Feb: KIND X220 came in today and was set up. Nicely built light putting out a lot of light. Set it up 18" from top light 100% IR/UV 0% 5 Feb Did some LST and clipping today. Started training to a manifold grow.

LastOpus This week has been pretty busy. I need to move my tent so I have been feeding straight water and a little LST.

LastOpus The tent was moved over the weekend. Added an air input with variable speed fan, carbon filter and a stretch net. That should keep the air flow circulating well. Also added 3 ZKittle autos to the tent and pushed the light over to 12 to start he flower cycle on the Chocolope.

LastOpus Plants have been in 12/12 for a week. Trimmed up the base and the tops are looking good. experimented with clipping one top at the beginning of 12 /12.

LastOpus Getting bigger fast, very happy with the lights

LastOpus Tops are growing and beginning to develop an aroma. The plant over all looks very healthy and has been an easy grow. I just picked up a larger tent and as soon as I have all the equipment for it I will use this tent for drying or clones. This little 3x3 has been really great for starting to learn in but I am looking forward to the room in a 4x5

LastOpus Was too busy to get this up last week.

LastOpus Buds are filling in and have a nice light scent

LastOpus This sweetheart is looking wonderful. I was going to harvest this weekend but I remember reading something about if you think its ready wait 1 week. So I will wait a week and see if they change while I flush with PH'd water

LastOpus Feeding her 6 ph Water with 1 tsp of molasses

LastOpus I will update with dry weight in a few days - week. The plant is hanging in a 3x3 tent kept dark @ 45% humidity and about 70 F for 3 days. Branches are still pliable seems to be a nice slow dry slipping to about 62F at night. I am really looking forward to trimming, weighing and getting her in a container to cure.
