Secret garden

Weekly log started 7.25.amended all plant's with organic nutes Last watering was 7.23, next expected watering 7.27. Plants are doing well, initial germ run was only 4 successful, so I staggered more seedlings [7.19]. Running a few custom strains from Mr. Pipp, but will keep those segregated from my feminized plants in time. I'm also running several comparison tests with a minor shout out to DYNOMYCO, for sending me a small sample to do my observations. I decided I did not want this diary up 3 weeks ago but I have changed my mind. Looking for tips on running perpetual grows, or multiple grows at once and managing them come mid flower/harvest. There are a few extra strains I Ann running outside in my secret garden that I am not specifying purposely. Thank you to all who read and follow on Instagram. New posts will be coming soonon that platform once I have the time to manage that content. Happy growing all, and good luck! 7.27-only watered MP autos. Planning on watering rest of garden tomorrow morning.

8.4- 7 plants in flower! The 2 trainwreck, 2 XXXL, and my 3 mystery strains all punching through well. My strains from Mr. Pipp are doing well in veg still, looking to sex them in the coming weeks but so far some stable plants. Along with the help from my DYNOMYCO experiments things are going well indeed. Watered all 8.2, rain 8.3 and quite humid. Planning on amending at the next water period. FG and HG for my flowering and HG for my veg. PH is consistently between 6 and 6.5. 8.5- 1 lemon 45 was male, plucked. Another though showed pistils, along with a cheesy cookie. 9 total plants in flower now. 8.7-heavy rain and thunder today. Didn't get a chance to pull them under cover so this is their watering in their element. Once flowers start stacking I may have to bring under cover perpetually to protect from rain. Plants are very happy though from what I see out the window.

Week 2 of flower on GD, the trainwreck are plumping along nicely with flower sites and pistils. XXXL is still going during and my mystery strains are chugging into flower as well. Thunder storm today, it's okay for now as it's still semi early in grow cycle.. I will be amending FG and HG into the medium this week once it dries from this rain. Overall things are going well, just a nice flower week ahead of me. 8.10- amended all plants in flower. I put in 1TBSP FG per gallon of medium and 1TBSP HG per gallon of medium, with around 3/4 cup worm castings each. 8 plants in flower total, official count as all others were males.

New week of flowering for the log. Plants are doing incredible. Trichomes are appearing on my stronger genetics but pistils are still prevalent in all flowering plants. Going to water all plants tonight (8.15) or in the morning (8.16). Weather is still pretty hot and humid but the temps are dropping at night to quite cool degrees. Nothing to do except ensure no heavy storms or tiny hands ruin the work. 8.18- Some leaves turning yellow on plants. May be using the nutrients too fast in the smaller containers. Watered all this morning, but will apply new nutes to the 2gal and smaller pots by next watering.

9.9- so sorry for my long absence, personal items and thoughts prevented me from pouring time into my phone...but I am back! I think my weeks on here are messed up so I'm going to relay my notes; Secret garden is on D67 of official life. Elephants in the tent are doing great, #1 is turning wonderful colors and I will be sure to get some nice pics of the main cola for SSSC, going to be chop ready any day now. #2 has at least 2 more weeks but may go longer. I will water #2 again when needed... Outdoor flowers; Trainwreck- #1 suffered bud rot in dense main cola. I noticed that Morning and removed affected part. Some it's drying from that and a clean smoke, butt rest of plant is unaffected by mold. TW#2 is the scariest looking plant I have, sugar leaves are wild worth trichomes. This is going to be the astro physical medicine I'm looking for I think. XXXL#1-doing well from topping. Smells like mocha coffee so heavily it makes my mouth water. #2 is doing equally as well. Mystery stain is continuing to be a mystery...that plant is a few weeks older bit not even close to done. Lemon 45 smells as it should, this is a custom strain from Mr. P and I have a few more early flowers of his going too. All plants outdoors have about 2 weeks, maybe 3 left. 9.11-emergency harvest of TW#1 ...had more bud rot so I snipped affected part and harvested the plant. Will not go through and lose the whole plant. Early sample was nice, looking forward to when this is dried out to sample. All other plants are in shower bed due to intense thunderstorms and risk of further rot. Elephant#1 is in darkness and will be chopped down soon. Fall colors are coming in full fledged. Looking at 2 weeks longer on all other plants at least.

9.12-week 10, and week 8 of flower, all plants are doing well. Emergency harvest of TW doing well still, drying. Other plants are inside due to fall weather present. Risk of mold is too high to continue outside. My one mystery strain smells like mildew per a friend and now I can't smell otherwise. Thinking of scraping after 13 weeks of life. All Other plants are nearly done and smelling great. Harvest one elephant this weekend, then the remaining plants pending trichomes. The finish line is here though, maybe last watering happened last night, but I am consistently checking on these plants making sure of my window. Really trying to base harvest on fallcolors of fan leaves as well. 9.14 -harvest of ELEROB...very impressive Looking plant. Got some nice pictures...waiting on the other one to mature a bit more though. Wet trim partially of largeleaves but now hanging as a whole plant to dry...the XXXL's will be ready to go into darkness by next week, week and a half, along with my lemon 45 based on the trichomes check i did last night. Remaining trainwreck(Frankenstein TW) has a few more weeks yet, letting that and my mystery go longer. Going to be a busy harvest season in the upcoming weeks. Trainwreck #1 is slowly getting closer to optimum dry level, interested in the weight on that one with how much I needed to remove due to rot. I would not mark harvested until the second plant is cut on all my runs. Leave a comment what you think, I likely won't be updating until next grow week, or next harvest...whichever comes first. Happy growing all!

Overall growing was fine. 2 of 6 succeeded but...these 2 plants are heavy yielders and well worth the effort to grow. Looking forward to the end result and to taste the labor of this fruit. Great strain though to grow outdoors.

END of life cycle coming close for the rest of these plants.

Flawless grow from Mr. P's genetics, looking forward to this cross and how it performs/tastes. All trichomes were cloudy at harvest, and the plant really enjoyed being outside in full sun. No problems really at all except pests but that is external from the grow. Looking forward to the smoke review.

Strange to grow, I wish I would have performed LST early on. My next run I will. Very prone to mold and pests, not for beginners but a good grow overall.

Let one plant go a bit longer before harvest... very happy with the results though. Very easy plant along the way and no crazy regimen was needed. Can't wait to grow again and fill my tent up. Would LST next time and run indoors for a closer light intensity and no external elements.
