Katsu Seeds Celestial Tremors

TheTerpTap Bottom watered once during week 1 to try to encourage the roots to grow deeper and misted top surface. Everything appears healthy. I will continue to post updates on the last day of each grow week.

TheTerpTap Switched out my light to the HLG 100 V2 4000K this past week. Just letting the plants do as they do. Drenched with Rootwise Mycrobe earlier in the week and watered again tonight. One leaf tip on the Celestial Tremors #1 was dying off so I removed it today. I had the light a few inches lower and perhaps that was the cause but uncertain as the other plants don't show any problems. Both plants are 2.75" tall.

TheTerpTap Both plants are 3.25" tall. Over the course of the week, I removed the cotyledons and the first nodes and one fan leaf. I plan on mainlining this run and instead of chopping off all the growth when I do the first topping, I figured I would slowly prep each plant to reduce stress and spend less energy on parts of plants that are being removed. I lifted the soil block from the cup to pull the roots back into the cup that grew thru the drainage holes on celestial tremors #2, but was unable to with #1. Celestial Tremors #1 has wild roots still growing thru the bottom.

TheTerpTap 6.4.2022 It's middle of week 4. Yesterday, I cut off the the remaining fan leaf at first node on each plant. Today, plants received their first tea brewed from Buildasoil's Craft Nutrient Blend. No changes in vertical growth since previous entry, however looks like some leaf growth and lots of action going on with the roots. 6.6.2022 Topped at 4th node

TheTerpTap Topped. Transplanted into 2 gallon tall bags at the end of week.

TheTerpTap I am not sure what happened to week 6 when I transplanted these into the 2 gal pots. I tend to upload late at night and must've forgotten to update Celestial Tremors. Anyhow, I am finally back with an update after weeks of nothing. I promise you didn't miss much other than transplanting, defoliation, and watering in the only 3 products I am currently running which is Rootwise Mycrobe, Fish Shit, and Build-A-Soil's Craft Nutrient Blend. I also moved into my main 5'x5' tent which has the HLG600 set at about 65-75% power. Yesterday, I added the trellis and fed BAS craft tea that was brewed for 24hrs prior. Celestial Tremors was slow in solo cups and the 2gal pots compared to the other ethos cultivars I am running. Celestial Tremors #2 was smaller and so I transplanted her into a 5gal pot and she's about 10" tall currently. I had hope in Celestial Tremors #1 so I put her in a 7gal pot and she's currently about 12" tall. Celestial Tremors #2 is still much smaller overall, however the Celestial Tremors #1 has taken off and she's one quickest growers in the garden. I am not sure when I will flip my lights, but will give at least another week if not more.

TheTerpTap Celestial Tremors #1 is getting much bigger than anticipated and she is about 18" tall. Meanwhile, Celestial Tremors #2 is only 13". This week there has been a lot of growth since applying the first trellis. I fed Rootwise Mycrobe and BAS Craft Blend in teas applied a few days apart. I also did some light defoliation. This cycle I have been trying to strategically defoliate and will do more of it as they stretch. And I am excited to say that today is the last day of veg.

TheTerpTap It's wild to think these are even the same genetics. CT #1 has been continuously stretching since the first day of flower and is now 25.5" tall; CT#2 is a shorty at 17" tall. This week I increased the light intensity and fed about every other day using teas.

TheTerpTap I forgot to log week 14, but during that week I fed teas with SEA90 @ 1tsp/gal, Langbeinite @ 2tsp/gal, Crustacean Meal @ 2tsp/gal, and FishSh!t @ 0.30tsp/gal. This week I fed craft blend tea 2x and one day of water only. I water 0.375-0.50 gal every other day for 7 gal pot (ct#1) and 0.28gal in the 5 gal pot (ct#2). Celestial Tremors #1 measures 30" and is about 19" from the light; Celestial Tremors #2 measures 17" is about 33" from the light. Over the last 2 weeks, I have done extensive defoliation, taking off a little bit each day. Lately the struggle has been maintaining a lower rh%. When dehumidifier is off, rh reaches 68%, but with it on I can maintain 55-60%. I keep it off as much as possible to consume less power, but also paranoid because the last time I ran CT, I had pm in flower.

TheTerpTap Added a small floor fan tonight to circulate air towards the back of the tent. No new vertical growth which is great because I don't like getting sticky arms reaching through the branches. Buds are looking good so far and the garden is starting to smell more.

TheTerpTap The buds are on the smaller size, but I have a feeling that the density is fooling my eyes. CT#2 should still yield a decent amount considering how small she was, and both plants smell incredible. CT#1 also had a beautiful color fade too. In the dark for the next 24hr before harvest. Will update with yields after drying.
