June 6th
- part of a larger grow, and not Featured in any Diaries, this beautiful Colombian Gold, which was FIM’d once re: the double colas, has quietly kept on truckin.
- and I am now keeping this one plant to spoil indoors.
It was decided this morning, Plant was super-cropped and responsible for the Autos to become independant as well lol. Its already under a scrog net with a light schedule steering it right into Flower.
3 weeks at 14/10, then 12/12 will see a Full tent happen for sure, and not stick out the top with a big reach…
- tonight it gets transplanted into the best possible environment. A new 7 gallon bag of ProMix HP bio+myco.
Yep, I’m doing it.
- Nutrients, it had a big Veg feed yesterday; 1L, so it will be an immediate shift to Dilute Bloom Nutes for next feed. With a gradual shift to
Flower, this will be no problem.
*** FYI I’ve been following LegacyMarketFarms nutrient-cycles, and there is not one burnt tip in 38 plants!!! at 11 weeks veg. Thanks Andrew. Bring it on
PS, blue room is gone lol
I’ll back fill the info as we move along, its from 8 strains…
- tonight, I will make the 3gallon transplant into the 7gal bag. And I’ll make use of their Inoculant CONNECT on the exposed roots at that time.
~ later
9th
- prepared the CONNECT Inoculant from PROMIX; equal ratio of water and powder produced a Slurry that was “wiped onto the root-covered surfaces” with a Spatula. ProMix video shows Seedlings being dipped.
This was a healthy 3 gallon pot, with an 11 week old Colombian Gold in Veg. The procedure consumed the Sample easily.
- Connect is easy to use and I’m looking forward to seeing this new Combo in action. The tapered Bag/Packaging from PROMIX is probably closer to 8gal of Substrate, now that the the transplant is complete.
- THANKS PROMIX !!!
* flip between image #4 and #5, it shows the adaptability of cannabis leaves adjusting to new surroundings. 8 hours difference in time between the 2 images… have fun, you can SEE the change
10th
- fed very slowly, 3L of Liquid Nutrients for breakfast, (5:30am) Including Bloom Microbes. PS, not one drop of run-off. This is the first taste of what’s coming down the pipe
- after a couple weeks of 14/10, I will switch the diary to Flower for the 3rd and last week at 14/10. 12/12 follows. But a shift in Nutes is happening now
12th
- moved it all into the 4’ tent and turned the light UP. Top Leaf temps etc etc. shooting for 25c in the room and 23.0 on top leaves
13th
- centred and re-scrog’D / a.m.
- established new max light height. Establishing lite-Strength %, via top-leaf temps. Then VpD can be dialed in for the long haul.
* last grow saw me keep a higher RH% and it was my nicest Buds ever. KEEPING THE RH% High throwout this grow~ 65%+. Trying to establish something variable with consumer products… like maybe humidifiers that stay on etc, and dont need to be restarted… after st/pt achieved… damn and a lol
-Cheers Growmies
@1Right_Angle, I feel like we trouble-shot it fairly well I think you got it balanced out good with the tweaks you made. Now the sky is truly the limit for this lady, Again I will say it. " Here sir, Is the new honor & record of healthiest most lush green plant I have EVER seen " Hands over imaginary award ! 😁
Holy crap. This thing is gettin jiggy with it real quick. I CANNOT get over the leafs on this plant, Gotta be the most lush green I have ever seen period.
@1Right_Angle, from horticultural stand point no .if your trichs are ripe your good as your genetics is .if your worried about loosing terps lower day temp with light on .if you want go ahead but i would never do that
@Candog, does that make any sense to you. I’m glad LMF stepped-up and verified some actions.
I’m Not grumpy just asking if it makes any sense. It’s all about Forward.
Cheers Bro
@1Right_Angle, That is something to be proud of for sure. You should get a good quarter pound dry or just over maybe even. Let the dry happen as slow as possible. That little of plant matter, I wouldn't even put a dehu in there. Even on the dry I just did, Looking back I would not even use a dehu on that amount of weed and it would have happened even better. My experience scope is doing this in 8x40 sea cans literally jam packed with plants so the dehu was a must. But I am still figuring out lower plant counts & less plant matter exactly when you need that dehu in there as support to make sure nothing catches mold. But I feel the amount I just pulled down, You would NOT need a dehu on it. So that means so far up to around 12LB wet, No dehu.
@LegacyMarketFarm, Thanks, it was great to have ya tagging along. Amber is throughout, buds are super solid, and there are two much bigger room-mates arriving today/tomorrow. Week 11 of a 6 month grow... It had to start somewhere... Cheers
@amazongrow, the first attempt last winter sealed the pursuit. Ha. Simplicity rocks and this classic hit the spot. This batch had a run-in with a big skunk. Hope it takes a couple weeks to Air out
@CapnDankestein, I hope you have some Fun taking this Lady outside. And thats where she needs to be.
Growing this strain gave me a definite Victory in growing a strong Famous strain. And also left me feeling a little deflated, because the bud tasted of Grape when smoking it…
I do not ever remember there being a Grape taste in Colombian Gold.
I wrote to them asking for some
Clarification; Green House Seeds and they never bothered to respond.
So, I’ll never add another seed to my Collection of this Colombian Gold. I have 1 seed left, and it will be grown outside next Summer.
Its a great weed for a nice Sativa High, you can tell its got a good set of genetics inside… it has just gotten too far from the original host…
Gonna be super excited to see the final yield per plant you got a real good harvest & they are looking great already. I can smell them oozing through the screen
