At the start I was a bit worried she wasn't gonna pop .
After 12 hours in water I could see a small opening.
Because I'm doing a few different seeds ; but , seperated grow diarys , the process I use is the same
Germination method as follows:
1. Open the packs up, get them into a 60 mil water container.
2. I use unbalanced tap water because it seems to produce the best results. In the past I have tried pH balancing and using that water at like a 6.2ph , I have the best luck with just straight tap water + less that a .5 ml per liter.
- tap water temp is @ 22.4°c w/225 ppm
3. After 2 hours in water I was able to get them to sink to the bottom .
4.Leave in a dark area , in this case I use a drawer .
5. Leave them in the water for 12-24 hours.
6. They were in the water for 12.5 hours before being transfered to paper towel.
7. Place seeds carefully into a Ziploc bag , then place them in a dark area .
8. The dark area had a min / max 22.° c min - 25.7°c , 48-54% humidity .
9. Check paper towel every 12 hours to see the progress.
I had no doubt that these beans would got 100% germ rate .
Ps. Used bounty brand paper towel & Ziploc " medium" bags .
This is my first time using Blimburn, thus far have nothing bad to say about them ! Great customer service!
I will also say I'm not much of a sativa fan but I have personally tried sending 99 maybe not from Blimburn but the cultivar itself was really good to spark some energy but not put you in anxiety attack.
This one I did as a thank you for my best friend who's been there in so many times has had my back 100% of the time . He asked if I could make it happen .... so I'm gonna krush it ?!
Enough personal stuff I'll get some notes down .
This week went great really no huge issues in this week .
Day 1in the soil it the light was too far she was spiraling a little bit upwards but as soon as it got the right attention @ 48 hours in soil, it started taking off like nobody's business.
The next 48 hours it was shooting up . I am more than happy , just shows they are a healthy genetic.
72 hours they were getting a little spiral stem going on .
Then I decided it was time to control the stretch more so I put a cob + LED light about 5 in away from the girls.
Then I used the hand method by placing my hand above the canopy and leaving it there for a minute to ensure that the light was not too close.
It's been about 48 hours since I made the decrease in light height and they are staying a stable height they're not continually going too far up but they're still growing and so far so good!!!!
96 hours in and this girl is as happy as can be !!!
Now it is almost end of first week and this one has started to show explosion growth , surpassing some girls that are 5 days older than her .
Start of week 2
here
We
Go!
I noticed while checking the bottom of the solo cup the BEAUTIFUL Tap root , wow , it is thick and healthy , white like snow !!! These are gonna need a transplant pretty shortly . The goal is to run them in autopots , lets hope things go to plan !!
Feed plan will go up here shortly , increase the PPM of the solution in 60 ppm increments. So 540, next 600, then next 660 , see how the plant reacts to it !!
Keep your eyes on this one she is gonna fly !!!!
So the increased ppm has shown to do this one right . Could be a heavy feed strain so I'll test that out but I'm definitely going to hold back no no longer or no more than 660 or 700 in the next ten days . Every day she is growing bigger and bigger so not much more I could ask !
This girl went straight over into a 1/2gallon pot , it was a flawless transition, couldn't even tell they got transplanted !
Added the plant support ring to keep it strong and growing , also a little help for the healthy fan leaves to keep doing their thang !
* At time of transplant, they got 750 ml of 667ppm nutrients . The goal is to have them all into flower within the next 3 weeks !
Also these pictures are one a day each day, that's how fast this girl is growing WOW .
And today she started praying " oh Lord thank you for this sun "
Wow this girl has a stem on er ' wow .
Before anyone says it , yes I know this is not fIMing, started to run out of room , so this is a fairly well known technique, I don't do it on every grow, but this time it made sense to open up airflow and get some light into this girl ***
*** As I did this on all my plants , I'm gonna call this '''Tipping''' maybe the term will catch on .
I will be taking the bottom parts for clones soon as we aren't far from flower time !
So took bottom clones off , Im sorry for the background that will for sure change soon , these are gonna get some cool training here so be on the lookout.
So this one has a noticably amazing structure, the main stem is corrugated, this leads me to believe it will have the ability to hold some serious weight !!!
I will have more notes as the week goes on so stay tuned !
So this one seems to be the happiest one in the bunch , I'm running a few other strains in the same environment, this one is taller then the others , showing she is gonna have some sativa traits later on .
Also it has no problem with being in the smaller pot !! Great structure , growing tight internodal, just a great time .
I was a little hesitant about Blimburn, just because they seem to have every strain on the planet ( not actually but they got ALOT ) ; But it seems they didn't skip any steps when it came to making this B E A uty of a genetic!!
So she is still growing taller and tablet each day ,no troubles being in a small pot at all .
No deficiencies (knock on wood)
Stay tuned as I will be doing a bunch of training to this girl !!!
What a week !!! This was an absolute pleasure to grow , I don't deal with alot of sativa dominant grows, so having something get this much height on one week was pretty cool to see !!
This one is about 6 days from going into flower, she REALLY liked to be plucked !!!
Not very often do plants take so well from losing their large fan leaves like this one did !!
So it is about time for flower on these beautiful girls !!! My room is getting pretty packed 💥💥 so I will just put up a canopy shot of this week with more images to follow after Thanksgiving weekend!!!
First week of flower lots of notes to come stay tuned !!!
So first week of flower notes will have to make up for my lack of content . I was on the covid train so I was pretty sick this week ( no excuse but it is what it is )
Minimal stretching so far this week she did very well with plucking and taking a majority of leaves off with great ease !!!
Big fan leaves strong structure it's gonna make for so massive spudz down the road !! They are now in the Autopot system so I'm excited to see how that works out !!!!
Just the start of this week trying to get some stuff going on definitely going to have some Note updates on this really nice inter nodule spacing. Strong structure I can see it does not like the cold even when I took it out for pictures it immediately reacted to it. Super impressed starting to give off a little kind of a citrus pineapple vibe to it so we'll just continue on and hope for the best!!
Towards week end this one really started showing buds , unfortunately due to a death in the family I didn't get much for picture content so the photos up are towards ,Day20/21 .
Dad
" You will never be forgotten, I will always love and appreciate you as a mentor and a father " R.I.P
Start of the week the buds are starting to fill!!
Looks like this one for sure is done stretching , and is focusing it's energy into the reproductive growth .
Really happy with this one so far !!!
More notes and pictures to follow !!!
Stay tuned
Week 4
The structure has been perfect ,
No real need to stake anything ,
Buds are definitely sativa leaning ,
They are starting to get a really interesting pineapple, citrus , just smells like energy!!!
