Paper towel germ started 13th, planted 14th.
One seed per couple already sprouted vigorously after putting the seed in the soil, literally the day after (15/05).
First one was Purple Punch on the 15th, today (16th) one Zkittlez woke up as well.
Will wait for the other guys being late to the party.
Light dimmer turned almost to half. Will put to max power as soon as eveyrthing is out.
Sprinkled water at regular intervals with a sprayer. Not even half a liter in 3 days. Gonna increase as soon as needed.
Zkittlez looks like kinda slow starter compared to Purple Punch.
Being my first real indoor grow, any pro-tip/advice is going to be much appreciated! :)
Veg Week #1
- 18/05:
Everything is out and looks healthy so far, lamp dimmed to 3/4 potential.
One of the Zkit presents a minor white burn on the first leaves. PP looks overall way more stable and fast growing.
Watering when needed, more or less 0,2 l per 24 to 48 hours each.
- 23/05:
Nothing much to say, started developing first few short nodes. Little curls appeared on some leaves might it might just be due to lamp position causing plant to twist a little.
No nutrients being used, won't use them for the upcoming week for sure, soil seems to be doing great.
- 34/05:
Identified heat stress from the curling leaves on PP2 and overall temp in the tent, added a stronger fan and opened up more vents. Will update.
25/05:
- PP2 finding some relief from heat stress after adjusting the airflow, ordered a better fan and will be coming in next week.
- PP1 still looking awesome, queen of them all.
- Zkittlez still slow starters but looking healthy and overall very resilient.
27/05:
- PP2 recovering, aside from that not much to say.
- Zkittlez starting to expand in height, while the PurplePs seem to be getting wider.
29/05:
- Lamp dimmed to 3/5th of max power to reduce temps. Managed to lower by almost 2 degrees by also adjusting air flow. Temp stable at 29/30° C - RH 45-50%
- Fed about 0,2l per plant with half doses of nutes.
30/05:
- Topped top left Zkittlez, scar sealed in a few hours and branches already trying to stand, recovery feedback looking good. Will let it be and start training tomorrow or W3.
31/05:
- Too early to train the topped Zkittlez but recovery started and double stem started growing; proceeded with topping the PP1 as well on the 4th node.
- Started LST on untopped PP2, the highest in the room.
31/05:
- Ended up topping 2 of them yesterday, both recovering great, will let them go for a couple days and start training when branches are long enough.
01/06:
- Fed them a bit more nutes yesterday, seems like they're loving it.
- Brought lamp from 50cm down to 45cm since I had to lower wattage for heat control. Will adjust accordingly.
- Start of week 4 they'll be getting an inline fan and carbon filter for ventilation and odor control, they may be small but they started to smell.
03/06:
- The grassy smell is outstanding.
- Started minor defoliation (2-3 max fan leaves per plant and a couple lower branches on Zk2) and training adjustments before feeding almost a full 1ml/l of Bio-Grow, wanna keep it low on nutes for this week.
- Prepared ScrOG net in case needed.
06/06:
- One of the Zkittlez (Zk1) looks a little stunted, but might be genetics since she was the slowest starter since the very beginning. Still bushy and healthy, but branches are really short.
- Training turned out pretty weird looking but still managed to filter some light on lower branches and even up the upper ones.
- Might be due to heat stress, but I can see early pistils coming out.
- Next feeding later today or tomorrow.
- Ordered carbon filter and ventilation supplements, can't wait for the next cycle already.
08/06:
- Properly adjusted training and spread branches wide open for ventilation and space optimization.
- Started feeding bloom nutes right after defoliation and cleaning up some lower branches. Lookin' frrressh :D
Week 4 coming up!
12/06:
- A little defoliation before feeding.
Temperatures are really high, but I really have no way to deal with that, open to cheap suggestions!
13/06:
- Identified minor Nitrogen toxicity from clawing dark green leaves. Will proceed with a few clean flushes after the last feed.
16/06:
- Just going through recovery after the first defoliation in flower. Everything looking great! :D
- Just hope the temps won't cause much issues, can't handle better than this :(.
- Next PH'd flush today to further address the dark and clawing leaves on Zk2.
19/06:
- Everything great but couldn't manage the clawing leaves on one of the Zkittlez, probably just genetics and not toxicity as I thought.
- The slow starter Zkittlez instead is looking clear, bushy and healthy against all expectations.
- PP2 started yellowing lower leaves, doesn't seem like deficiency or overfeeding, I am open to guesses and suggestions.
22/06:
START OF WEEK 6 - LOVING IT SO FAR. Learned a lot over the run.
- Fed clean PH'd water, everyone is doing great, barely on the edge considering the little nute burning on the tip of the leaves, but I consider that as an indicator instead of a defect.
- Sadly the Zk2 looks way too bad, most of the issue is genetic and probably the high temps made it worse, few bud sites and leaves clawing like 360. Been feeding only clean water since it started, but didn't seem to help much.
- Rest of the garden is still recovering from defoliation and will be ready around next week for further cleaning :D (PP2 is like hella fkin strong man)
01/07:
- Upon waking up today I was greeted by welcomed signs of recovery and new growth on the Zkittlez 2!! (Which was overall curling up and with few leaves and sites) :D
- Other girls doing great so far and loving their feed, even tho I can see for myself already that topping isn't that worth it for these strains or maybe autos in general, probably unless you have a close to perfect environment.
04/07:
- Even the curly one is looking awesome, badass recovery :D
- Feeding at alternate days 0,35l solution ea plant to avoid overfeeding and overwatering.
09/07:
- So far everything looking very bright, keeping up the feed once every 2 days.
- The recovery on the Zkittlez2 was astonishing, she is now really bushy and healthy, just figured it might have been underfed since it started bushing up when I started giving her more nutes. (Since plain water wasn't working I had to give it a try, would have never figured it out just by checking up symptoms)
17/07:
- Plants are yellowing a lot from the bottom to the top.
- Everything cool tho, feeding regularly at alternate days. Last feed was PH'd water, gonna give nutes today.
22/07:
- The PP1 is looking close to finish, probably will start flushing this week with flawless finish.
- The smell on Zk2 is crazy, bloody/irony with definitely a lot of pine in it.
- Smell's not that strong on Purple Punch I can tell.
- Lots of fan leaves removed, let's grow them flowers :D
This week went great overall, straight up growing and ripening.
Only issue is with the Zkittlez, seem like somewhat unhealthy genetics/seeds.
Zk1 is like drying all out and leaves inside buds are getting crispy and burning.
Zk2 instead seems healthier but has cluster of leaves all over the stem.
Purples are doing awesome, flawless.

- Started snipping out upper buds from PP1, put them to dry, the look thicc as fk boi.
- Lost hope on the Zkittlez, probably an unlucky batch :(
Awesome strain, super resilient and forgiving, I think this might be perfect for beginners. :D
The first one gave me 15 g dry.
I know, not much, but the pots were 7 liters and the environment too hot during the whole cycle.
Still plain smoke, citrusy and earthy, with a good indica high, really good for sleeping.
