My first 3 successful grows! I'm so glad I switched to coco & fabric pots. Here's how it went down: All seeds soaked in shot glasses of tap water. Durban Poison planted in rockwool on 2/11 (then moved to coco on 2/24). Blue Dream planted in coco 2/26 & Acapulco Gold planted in coco on 3/5. I eventually sync all 3 plants so that they were on the same feeding schedule by week 4 of the vegetative stage.
The first weeks of DP (on the left) was rough, I didnt really understand how to feed the plants so I had given it pH water only & this was the one with rockwool. It wasn't looking too good at first. BD was going good and was plenty green.
By 3/11 DP & BD were getting week 3 nutes & i had popped another seed Acapulco Gold and was getting week 2 nutes. I don't even remember how that happened exactly.
I transferred the plants from the solo cups to 1 gal fabric pots on 3/27. I also added some Great White fungus powder to the roots before placing them in the fabric pots. Lights were at 25% when I transferred the plants & I increased the light dimmer to 50% after 2-3 days. Kept feedings to every other day during this entire grow.
Week 1 of flowering started on 4/2/22, pics are from 4/4. I just followed the feeding schedule (pic in germination week) on the chart. Lights were at 50% intensity & increased to 75% gradually. Lights were also flipped to a 12/12. Lower fan leaves were trimmed.
Week 2 of flowering, by this time I was giving 2 solo cups of nute water and 1 of the branches from AG broke. I tried salvaging it but didnt work out. I could see it beginning to form pistils.
At the end of the flush week it was lights out for 3 days, chops & they were hung upside down to dry. They took a about 1.5-2 wks for it to dry since the buds/branches stayed intact. Next time I'll wet trim & separate branches from main stem.
