Day 7, first feeding for these ladies. Using Poland springs distilled water, Cali magic, flora micro, grow, bloom, diamond nectar, flora blend. PH to 6.0, 98ppms then added 1/2 teaspoon of recharge. How they looking? I’m new here, first recorded grow on this site.
Start week two, I water every 24hrs and achieve 90% saturation at each event.
I add nutes in +.1 EC daily increments based on how the plants react I hold steady or increase/decrease as needed.
Watering will/may increase as plants get larger as well, water quantity is listed below as well as every change made throughout this week and until harvest. Updates made daily, or…you know… ;) questions, comments or concerns welcome my friends. I’m not a pro just a guy that tries a little and hopes for a little herb to puff on if the plants abide.
I’m a deadhead, so I named my plants accordingly as is my growing tradition (~):-))

Looking great. Raised my lights up a few inches to encourage some stretch to help train them evenly. Adjusting tie downs daily. Happy Growing.

DAY 25 : Girls are looking great all popping pistols. Looking very happy and green, no issues. Turning into little bushes. Light LST and very minor defoliation of some teeny leaves hitting the coco for ease of watering. Slowly increasing bloom nutes and will start decreasing grow nutes to follow suit in the days to come. Here’s where things stand currently regarding nutes EC and PH. Cheers friends, keep on truckin.

Day 28 Phil and Mickey are always hungry. The EC out has been almost 300 points lower than inflow for 3 days straight. My only guess is they are eating. Switched to watering twice a day for them in hopes to raise EC to closer to inflow EC.
Bobby, has somehow balled herself up and is looking fine.. no signs of deficiencies or toxicity. She’s just a squat little girl but Seems happy enough. Genetics? Anyone have a thought to share? Here is the current feed.
Happy growing, plants are overal looking great and I think they will start stretch soon. How am I doing y’all? Much love.

Got the stretch I was looking for, defoliation began on day 28 and slowly worked up to where I want to be. Just plucking little suckers here and there still. Plants are looking great, Phil is going to be a monster I think. Happy growing Ladies they are drinking almost a gallon of water a day, wake up each morning to dry coco, think next grow I’ll try my hand at automated watering system feeding twice a day is a bit much with a full time job haha. I am seeing the benefits of watering twice daily it’s 10% run off because My EC is easily managed and flushes out any chance of salt build up. Some girls burned a bit when introducing higher PK values, next time I’ll work more slowly to increase PK. But they seem happy with no sign of burning progression.
Phil PH Out: 6.2 EC: 1.0

Week 6, plants are looking beautiful and happy. Praying all day long, leaves are green with no known deficiencies or toxicities. I am feeding them quite a bit until I’m given a sign to slow down, they are taking in nutes well. PH runoff has lowered over the last week, from 6.1 last week average run off to about 5.5 average runoff this week. I believe this is due to the Recharge. It’s worrisome but the plants are happy. I’ll continue to feed at 6.5ph just to be sure it doesn’t dip any further but I believe the recharge is keeping everything stable. I’m not gonna fix what’s not broken. If they show signs of PH issues I’ll flush until PH is higher but for now they are happy. cheers
Start of week 7 looking great, buds are putting on some weight as they mature, they feel solid. Plants are happy. Corrected ph up from 5.6 last week to an increase of 6.0 sitting pretty. Slight heat stress as you can see but I’d rather keep my temps higher rather than humidity. VPD values are sitting at 1.8. If i lowered to 1.5 I’d be looking at 55% RH which I’d rather be on the safe side sitting at 45-46% if heat stress progresses I’ll opt to dim my lights to 80%. Cheers.
Not much to report this week, stuck to the same feed schedule as they seem to like it. Moved the tents to a better room with more average temps and RH. VPD is averaging 1.5 now 73f lows 77f highs RH 44% lows 52% highs. Cheers another 3 weeks or so but that’s up to the plant gods. ✌️
Turns out Mickey is actually a forum stomper by mephisto. Not even mad, but.. I was wondering why it looks totally different than the others🤯 my buddy just told me today that he’s missing that bean and that I got it on accident. Oh well guess I’ll have to suffer hehe 😜
Not much to report this week, girls are getting frosty. Trichomes are starting to cloud up and the smell is getting stronger by the day. I will start my ripening formula mid to late week. Phil might need a full 12 weeks but Jerry will be chopped out the next week or so week 10-11. Cheers
Chopped Jerry and hung to dry, chopped when trichomes were all cloudy with some amber, breeder says the THC content is 18% so I wanted to chop when all was cloudy rather than let some degrade. Phil is still going strong probably another week or two. Cheers
Not a bad first recorded run, the Chunkadelic strain is skunky smelling, with a crisp melon exhale flavor that is very addictive you just wanna keep packing a bowl. The high is a creeper, smoked a joint waited 5 min packed a bowl and while I was packing it slapped me in the face hard, that kind of creeper. Overall nice and easy grow with a great amount of quality flowers. Cheers
