First indoor grow Motorbreath and GG4

Justlivin my light is at 30" from canopy at 60%. Both are struggling due to me. I overwatered and stunted them

Justlivin So I hadn't taken enough pics to show progress but it's at two weeks seems to be fine. I started this grow in February and stunted my two seedlings with to much water and too little light. They started to stretch so I overcompinsated with adjusting the light to close and scorched them. I'm going to fast forward to the present time which is now mid March just because it's a month of them recovering, sorry I screwed up this first dairy already.

Justlivin Here we are present time, I believe my two girls are on their way. Slow slow start but I didn't want to give up on them. Just recently transplanted into two separate 15 gallon fabric pots. No nutrients have been given to them just water. Topped both twice in the past two weeks.

Justlivin So they seem to be recovering. Both are showing signs of nutrient deficiency, I thought it could have been light burn but thanks to fellow on here, legacy farms, he informed me it's probably a nutrient deficiency. Topped the gg4 last week. Gave them about 200 ml each of the hydrolyzed fish fert 5 days ago. Today started LST.

Justlivin Looks like we are making good progress, some nitrogen is finally making its way to the leaves. Last week I mentioned legacy farm was helping me, its actually legacy market farm, just wanted to correct that, thankyou again for the support. I topped motorbreath a couple days ago, both plants are now around the same height. I added half a dozen ground eggshells from our chicks to give the soil a bit of calcium at the beginning of the week, seems to have helped. A few days ago I added 1 tbsp of granular down to earth. So far so good. The only concern this week is on the motorbreath, the leaves are curling a bit, I believe it's due to a hot spot, I've read the motorbreath strain likes it humid, right now my humidity is around 65% just need some better air flow. If anyone sees anything or has some suggestions I am all ears.

Justlivin This week watered once, no nutrients, and more training.

Justlivin About the same this week, keep adjusting the light as they grow, the tallest plant is 9 inches. The light I raised a bit to compensate for the plant, they looked like they were getting a little to hot, I have no fan as of now I plan on changing that this week, I believe that was the cause. My light timer wasn't turning on at the set time for the past couple of nights, which caused them to start flowering. It took a couple of days find out that it was a timer issue causing this. Now they seem to have stopped flowering but they stretched slightly. Watered once and I wish I had waited a couple of more days before I did, the tips turned yellow the following day. Other than that I'm thinking maybe one more week of veg and then flip to flower.

Justlivin Well I flipped to flower. I decided it was time and so i defoliated and lollipopped both plants. Was having some curling of leaves on the motorbreath and I honestly dont know the main cause but i think it was due to multiple stresses, after I watered her it really seemed to have helped. Thanks to everyone who responded to my questions, very helpful. Haven't given any nutrients either it's been a while. Plan on feeding a bloom booster for first two weeks and then go from there.

Justlivin Just started to give nutrients today, I was slacking this week. Start of week 2 of flower, both plants are starting to flower the gg4 more so. Let two bananas sit in 2 liters of water for 36 hours. I also made a gal of Neptune's fish food 2-4-1. I've been keeping the viparspectra p2000 light at 23" and have been gradually turning up light dimmer which is now at 80%. Plan on leaving the light at this height and allow the plants to grow a little closer to the light. Hopefully all goes well this week.

Justlivin Found a male organ mid week. The motorbreath decided to hermaphrodite, the cause is obviously me. I think the main stress that caused this was due to temperature fluctuations, two of the days last week my room had become to hot and humid due to outside weather. My plan is to keep checking and plucking any "herming" that I see. So far no herming that i see on the GG4. Right now the viparspectra p2000 light is at 22" from canopy at 90%.

Justlivin Did some defoliating at the end of last week more of a light defoliation, and did more defoliating at the end of this week. All I've been feeding it so far is the Neptune's harvest 2-4-1 once a week. And about a gallon of water for each plant. And every couple of days about 2 liters of just water. So far so good on not seeing more hermaphrodited bud sites thankfully. I'm very pleased with this week's growth

Justlivin More of the same this week, found another herm but so far so good. They never really strecthed a whole lot either due to a timer malfunction earlier during veg stage. Also i stunted their growth on several different occasions not on purpose. I'm very happy with everything else, I think they're looking good.

Justlivin The beginning of this week it looked as though I was burning the pistils with to much heat. I believe I solved the problem by lowering brightness on light to about 93% and adjusting the fan directly on the buds. So far so good no new pistils looked to be affected. Otherwise same feeding cycle once a week Neptune's fish emulsion. At the end of this week I also did more defoliating.

Justlivin I think this will be the last feed today. I'll start giving them regular tap water the next time they need to be watered. Lowered light gradually throughout the week, started at 20.5 inches and now currently at 19.5 inches at 100%. Both plants are doing well, and I'm very excited for the upcoming weeks!

Justlivin I over fed last week and at the beginning of this week. Wish I didn't give them anything with more phosphorus and potassium and but instead calcium magnesium, due to the nutrient deficiency shown on the leaves. Little orange spots started to appear at the beginning of the week. I rubbed them to see if it was a fungus but it didn't rub off. I think its due to too much phosphorus and not enough calcium. Also the plants seem to be in a lock out, leaves are clawing a bit. So plan is to let the pots dry out completely and do heavy flushes from here on out.✌️

Justlivin Just flushed last week and they're almost ready for another one. The gg4 is almost ready to be pulled, i wanted to wait as long as possible because i read Motorbreath can go 10 to 11 weeks and right now it's the start of week 9 so the gorillas gonna come down soon. Unfortunately both plants showed signs of a cal mag deficiency little orange spots on the veins on some of the fan leaves. My fault due to overfeeding which caused a lock out, which I believe added to the calcium magnesium deficiency. Hopefully will have the gg4 hung by next week. ✌️😁

Justlivin Well final week, today I'll be chopping both 😁! I did nothing but flush and a light defoliation at any bud sites. The gg4 is definitely ready although she keeps pushing what looks like new growth everyday and she's still drinking but slowly. I dont want to risk over rippening the gg4 I think she's more of a sativa dominant, the breeder told me she was crossed with a jack herer male. Gg4's terps are spicey with a strong herby scent, its very pungent and very enjoyable, i just cant stop smelling her. The motorbreath on the other hand, she could keep going too I believe. I've read that motorbreath can go 10 to 11 weeks, but today she's only going 9. There are signs of ripening on some of the trichomes but I still think she could go another week. The reason why I'm pulling her early is because I have limited space and time. The motorbreath's terps are straight gas! I'd rub on the buds and smell my fingers and it's as if I spilled a little fuel on my hand. If I let her go longer I'm sure these terps would get stronger by the day. The trichomes on her are mostly cloudy so I dont it was too early but again I think she could keep going. I also did a 48 hour dark period. I'm very happy with how everything came out so far and been having a blast do💚! Next step drying and for that I want to have my tent be 60f and 60rh and I'm going to hang plants whole.

Justlivin At 63 days of flower I cut and hung plant whole in the grow tent. Did a slow dry of 64°f and 60 rh. My rh fluctuated for the first couple days which made them smell less pungent but they still smell good just not as strong. Dried for 16 days then trimmed and jarred. She smells really nice, a lot of different smells come off of her with a squeeze. It's a very piney, spice like smell and sweet at the same time. It's almost has like a bubblegum smell when caught right. Her smoke is a similar flavor with a skunky taste in the exhale. She's still not fully ready to smoked yet in my opinion but can be, a couple weeks of curing I think will really help. My plan is to cure for a month or as long as possible, burping twice a day for 2 weeks. All in all really happy on how she came out considering I over nutriented her and she went into a lockout in the final weeks. If it weren't for my mistakes she probably could have gone another week at least. Thankyou to guerilla and bloombuster who are on here growdiaries, and a real big thankyou to legacy market farm for all your help and continued support throughout my grow!

Justlivin At day 63 of flower she was chopped and hung whole at 64°f and 60rh for 21 days. First couple of days the rh dropped and they lost a lot of their smell. At day 20 I started to finally get branches to snap. Her smell is musky with a hint of fuel. Its a faint smell she needs to cure. Her flavor is better than her smell, its strong and lingers and she's coated with trichomes. I'm extremely happy on how she turned out. I nutrient burned her and she was in lockout for the final weeks of her life. If it weren't for my mistakes she could have gone for another week or two, in some of the pictures you can see new pistils coming. Big thanks to growdiaries and to bloombuster and guerilla. Thankyou legacy market farm for all your help and support throughout this grow Big thanks!
