Germination
3 years ago
Started with the glass of water technique and then after 18-24hrs I will place either in a paper towel or peat pellet pre-soaked with Starter Soak. Only germinating one seed because I am planning on doing SCROG.

Germination was a success, now its time to start this baby. I'll be feeding her with a spray bottle with a water mixed with some of the starter soak for the next week or so until she's ready to be transplanted into her forever home. Which will be a fabric mars hydro 20L pot and then I will most likely commence a feeding schedule of 5 days of morning nutes feeds and then 2 days of plain water to flush any excess nutes out. Thank you to everyone who has commented and is keeping an eye on this one 🤙🤙

Hello everyone, I have a 60x60x140cm tent and I'm using a 20L/5gal pot and a 600w LED. I was wondering with each growth stage what distance should I keep my lights from the top of my plant? Currently for my seedling I've got it at 38" and I have about 10" more space to go up.

Joooo. 600W (real) watts in a 60x60 is overkill!! A 600W HPS is good for 1.2m2 and 400W for 1m2. Around 150-250W will fit a 60x60. The light mostly has a PAR map. This, together with the hanging height will give you an idea about how high the light should be. Look at internet for how much PAR a plant need in every stage.

I haven't started feeding her a complete nutrient schedule just yet I'm waiting for her to get a bit bigger than I'll start nute feedings. I plan on topping the plant in the future as well doing so LST and I've got a trellis to do a scrog setup. Stay tuned for more updates over the coming days, weeks and months. 🤙🤙

The last few days I've noticed the leaves wilting, I let the soil dry out abit at first because I thought I had given too much water but then last night I watered it with ph 6.3 run off 5.0-5.5 and the leaves still haven't sprung up. Is there something I've done or can do to fix?

Your growing in coco.your having ph troubles and moisture troubles. Coco stays wet all the time. Ph in and ph out 5.8 in vegging. Flowering 6.2. Anything above or below those 2 marks the roots will be in lock out. Thus plant consumes itself to survive. I been growing autos in coco for some time. You can not overwater in coco perlite mix. Unless under a 24/7 stream of water and left in run off. My guess is ph, then light intensity, and possibly nutrition. A really low run off means it is too strong. Once you get your ph right in coco your nutrition will hold your ph value if in right amounts. Too strong ph drops. Too much ph rises in your run off anyway. Coco is hydro in a potter if that makes sense.

So last week I started to notice the leaves drooping and the plant starting to stunt a bit, at first I thought it could've been overwatering so I left it until it the top had dried out and was dry about 1 inch deep. I then feed her some water mix with the starter soak and then ph tested it to around 5.8-6.2 area ( I only have a tube and color chart for now ) then watered her till some run off came out the bottom which I tested, was around 5.5 and I assumed that she would bounce back but no and now the bottom leaves are slightly yellowing. If anyone knows how I can fix this and get this back to a healthy thriving plant please comment or dm me I definitely could use the help. Thank you

Looking much better this week, her growth increased 3" and will continue to grow (I hope). I'm currently waiting on some twist ties to come so I can start doing some LST and then once she's a bit bigger maybe next week, I'm planning on topping her. If anyone has any advice feel welcome to comment or even dm me. Thank you and stay tuned everybody 🤙

This week is starting off with a bang, leaves are getting nice and big. There is a smell starting to form and it smell lovely, nothing distinctive yet but I know it'll come. As you can see from the photos I've start with some LST and over the next few days I'll be topping her. I'm so excited to watch this baby grow. Stay tuned everybody.

Everything is continuing to go well, got a ph and ec tester arriving soon so I'll be able to do more accurate readings instead of using a color chart. The smell is definitely stronger than last week but still nothing I can think of. I'll probably give her another couple of weeks then put her into flower as well having a scrog net set up. Any advice is more than welcomed. Thank you and stay tuned. 🤙🤙

Its going good so far, did some defoliating the other day to let those lower branches receive more light and extend up to make and even canopy. My trellis net is just some cheap net that came with the tent but I'll still give it a go. If not I don't mind, my next grow I might get a proper one. Currently looking at buying a Grow Candy Heat Bar especially cause these colder nights are just not helping. Lights on temp is 20°c which is definitely under what I'd prefer (22°-28°). Looking at getting one next week so hopefully she'll be alright for another week. Thank you for listening and everyone enjoy their day. Stay tuned. 🤙🤙

Everything is going great, loving how this girl has gone since those first few weeks where I thought there was going to be a major problem. Decided to flip into flower because I'm currently running out of tent space so I'm happy with the height rn so I'm flipping. I'm looking at about 12 tops. I'm not gonna do the trellis net it's kinda flimsy so I'll just do that on my next grow when I buy a proper one.

She's coming along wonderful. She's staring to get a nice even canopy which is what I want. I did try and put it the scrog net but it was just too big and then after curing it down to fit it just wasn't tight enough. Next grow I'll look into a better setup with a net. So far I've only had a few heads showing signs of pistils. I've started feeding my flower nutes so hopefully they change that soon.

Not much too add other than alot more pistils have appeared so bud formation won't be for behind. Keep tuned for the following weeks when the buds start blossoming 🤙

Got some nice heads starting to form and the smell is starting to smell of some sweet berries. Not sure if I'm gonna have enough room but I hope that she doesn't stretch up more. Stay tuned. 🤙🤙

Beautiful smell has developed and everutime I open the tent I'm hit with a sweet berry smell. I don't think she's grown in height anymore which I'm thankful for, now the weight shall be put on. Some branches look like they won't be able to support heavy buds so I'll definitely get some hangers or ties to make sure they don't fall over or break. Stay tuned and thank you all for your knowledge, wisdom and support ❤️🤙

Bud formation is coming along nicely and everything is starting to frost up quite nice, I could only imagine how frosty she'll get by harvest. Decided to up the nutrients by around 0.5-1ml. Probably looking at a 9-10 weeks for harvest but we will see further down the line how she's looking.

Not much too add this week besides smell is increasing and the buds are feeling greasy instead of sticky. Extraction is supposed to be quite good with this plant so I'll definitely keep that in mind once I get myself a press, still got 9 more beanies of this left plus 3-4 more other strains.

Buds are super frosty and smell unbelievable. There's still at least 4 more weeks so I can't wait to see the end product. Started to add in extreme boost now which is a powder formula designed to make them nugs chunky 👌

Smell is getting stronger each week as well as the nugs getting super sticky 👌 I'll be getting a magnifier to check the trichs cause Im coming up on wk 9-10 which the Breeder recommends as a harvest time.

Frosty as crazy and the smell is just absolutely insane, going from the look of the trichs I'll probably harvest I a week or 2. Cannot wait to turn my of the sugar leaves into something 😋

Loved it, spent a few hours last night taking her down and hanging her branches up on a hanger. The smell is reminding me of raspberry puree which is delicious lol. Definitely would recommend this strain to everyone.
