4.15.22-D43-plants are recovering nicely from flush, gave 800ml each today of 5ml silica, 3ml big bloom per gallon. Not trying to over water but also not trying to rid of nutrients. Will water again when bone dry. I've made the decision to get a grow tent to finish this grow...temperature, RH, kids and dog are getting a bit too much to worry about in a budget closet. Otherwise I see trichomes on the new growth of JH1, starting to really produce, now just a waiting game. JH2 is still growing flower but not as fast. I'm really hoping this little punch of feed will help it along. Will raise lights to 18" this evening and leave it there for 48 hours to monitor growth upwards. If it gets too chilly I may need to bring in a dehumidifier to lower RH a bit. Will update along the week.
D44-defoliated all the plants in the PM
D46- JH1 is 15.5" tall, JH2 is 14" tall. Trichomes appearing heavily on JH1, thinking it will be harvest ready first as there are 0 trichomes on JH2 so far...I'm hoping this pheno on JH1 is the 9week seed to harvest, as that would be a very nice staggered chop schedule, but still far too early to make plans regarding the finish line. 72f and 45%-55%RH lately. Light is getting tricky to figure out the sweet spot to not burn them but I think I'm figuring it out.
*I'm maintaining 11"-13" light distance from top of highest cola after much deliberation, opinion and research, along with individual light specs and my environment.
PM update- checked soil, it's dry. Will feed tomorrow morning, making the feed right now though. Will feed 1200ml each with 7ml silica, 2ml tiger bloom and 3.5ml big bloom, all per gallon. Getting back on the nutrient schedule I had set with the organic big bloom as the added extra. Hoping this does not burn them in the process.
D47-fed this morning the mixture, changed to only 5ml silica after thinking and only 2.5ml big bloom. Will likely stick to this mixture until flush, maybe stepping dose up a bit with tiger bloom again and stepping down with big bloom. Everyone is happy, tent is very nice...now just climate control and monitoring.
D48- JH1 is 16.5" tall, JH2 is 15.5" tall. Monitoring conditions and leaving them alone today. Happy 420!
D49-JH1 is producing like a monster...trichomes everywhere, flower getting fatter. Starting to take daily growth pictures of main cola. JH2 is still behind but growing crazy...will need to start officially feeding separate nutrient mixes as all my plants are behind each other and showing different cycle stages...great. Tomorrow starts week 3 in flower, hoping these plants produce a nice end yield after all this effort. Getting growing doubts but plug along I shall!
Looking for opinions on when to defoliate JH2...main bud sites are visable, just a monster underneath, see D34-JH2 picture for current reference. Thank you all!
She looks about just ready to Defoliate, just take off the ones covering your bud sites underneath. Good luck! They look beautiful by the way! Great job ๐ ๐
Hey there
Wow what a harvest, and great photos and a beautiful dog! ๐
We really hoped that you enjoyed growing our genetics, thanks again for sharing this diary!
@Fast_Buds, thank you thank you! Awesome genetics on this strain. Thank you for the nice words on my dog, she'll be happy hearing that (Bear is her name). Very happy with the harvest results, it was such a blast growing and documenting!
