First photoperiod grow

RickC137 These plants surprised me with their fast and resilient growth. They ´ve been doing well, but for some reason kings juice and lemon orange both from greenhouse seeds co. were little bit bended to the side, king juice was inclined away from light and lemon orange into the light. Maybe sensitive genetics, too much or too little light...idk I´ve fed them at day 8 (week 2) with mills nutrients. They´ve responded well to feeding. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Growing conditions: Lux: 25 000 - 30 000 Temperature (day): 25°C Temperature (night): 22°C RH: 65-70% Light distance: 50cm Light intensity: 50% EC: 0.84 PH: 6.5

RickC137 They grow like crazy, I´m satisfied so far. ------------------------------------------------ Growing conditions: Lux: 30 000 - 40 000 Temperature (day): 22°C Temperature (night): 18°C RH: 65-70% Light distance: 51cm Light intensity: 80% Watered every 4 days.

RickC137 Plants were growing nicely, no signs of deficiencies or stress. So I topped them at day 19. Topping was performed above 5th node, with sterile, sharp scissors. Growth hormones were distributed to lower branches and they started growing rapidly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Growing conditions: Lux 32 000 - 42 000 Temperature (day): 24°C Temperature (night): 20°C RH: 60-70% Light distance: 55cm Light intensity: 80% EC: 1.102 Watered every 4 days.

RickC137 They grew nicely, until at day 25 I´ve registered something is not right. I was giving them half dose of mills nutrients all time, and also all time I´ve watered them one with nutrient, once without nutrients just water, and like this all cycle. So I´ve checked runoff and it was waaay higher PH that I´d like, PH 7.0. So when I was watering only water I´ve adjusted PH of that water to 6.0 and for Lemon Orange PH 5.8. I didn´t liked the way panty punch and MAC & crack were growing, so I did some LST. At day 27 I did some defoliation inside of plants, cutted of some little branches and leaves that were completely withou light so the plants wouldn´t waste their energy on those. On that day I´ve done some leaf tucking too. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Growing conditions: Lux: 37 000 - 40 000 Temperature (day): 25-26°C Temperature (night): 20-22°C RH: 60-65% Light distance: 52cm Light intensity: 80% EC: 1.200 Watered every 4 days. (with nutrients, just water, with nutrients, water, ...)

RickC137 They grew nicely even though they´ve got some PH problem. I was watering them from week 4 with solution PHed to 6.0 or 5.8 but despite all these preventetive measures their PH was still too high, we´re talking like 7.0. So I watered them with solution with PH 5.2 but still it wasn´t what I´d like to see... PH runoff 6.8 but some had 6.5 (MAC and panty punch) and they´ve recovered pretty well. But Lemon orange and king´s juice still too high runoff PH 6.8 and 6.9. But despite all these problems they´ve grew nicely. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Growing conditions: Lux: 37 000 - 42 000 Temperature (day): 25-27°C Temperature (night): 19-22°C RH: 60% Light distance: 55cm Light intensity: 80% EC: 1.200

RickC137 Coming soon, too high on shrooms for this 😄

RickC137 ...

RickC137 After 49 days since planting I´ve decided that they were good for a flip into flower. I did some decent defoliation approx. 5 days before flip to flower, so they would have some time to bounce back before flip. Conditions during week 1 of flower weren´t ideal especially at night. I´ve placed inside a dehumidifier to reduce moisture in the air, but it wasn´t enough. So I´ve opened all passive air intakes, in combination with thath I was able to achieve 70% RH. I know, it´s not good for flower, but that´s the best I can achieve. ....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Growing conditions: Lux: 55 000 - 60 000 Temperature (day): 25-28°C Temperature (night): 19-21°C RH: 55%, night RH 70% Light distance: 46cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 1.4

RickC137 They grew nicely, buds are fattening up thanks to Mills nutrients. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grow conditions: Lux: 65 000 - 70 000 Temperature (day): 27-29°C Temperature (night): 17-21°C RH: 55%, night RH 60% Light distance: 36cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 1.4

RickC137 I´m amazed how quickly they are fattening up their buds. Smell gets pretty intense, when I open the tent... :D Beautiful, healthy looking plants. Mills nutrients does an amazing job. This week I´ve done some leaf defoliation to those leaves who were blocking bud sites. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Grow conditions: Lux: 70 000 - 80 000 Temperature (day): 24-26°C Temperature (night): 17-22°C RH: 50-55%, night RH 55% Light distance: 36cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 1.5

RickC137 I´ve added second fan to the tent, to keep air moving in all part of grow area. Panty punch and king´s juice started to have some nice purple colors on fan leaves. I´ve also leveled them up so they are at the same height from light. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grow conditions: Lux: 80 000 - 90 000 Temperature (day): 24-26°C Temperature (night): 17-22°C RH: 40-55%, night RH 55% Light distance: 35cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 1.5

RickC137 This week they started smelling really strong. Beautiful colors throughout canopy, purple fan leaves, but the buds...purple, pink, light green color😍 I´ve checked the trichomes and I was surprised, all trichomes milky, even on the lowest buds, so I´ll start my flush 1-2 weeks before harvest. It´s strange becouse they were supposed to finish at week 8-9 of flower and this is only week 5 so they will be ready on week 6-7. Anyone had this same strange experience when growing? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grow conditions: Lux: 85 000 - 90 000 Temperature (day): 22-24°C Temperature (night): 15-20°C RH: 40-45%, night RH 50-55% Light distance: 26-30cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 1.5

RickC137 This week all ladies accept Mack and crack are ready for harvest. I´m doing my flush, giving only water to them. The smell is indescribable...😍 especially the King´s Juice has the best smell. Juicy, tropical sweet aromas. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Grow conditions: Lux: 85 000 - 90 000 Temperature (day): 22-24°C Temperature (night): 15-20°C RH: 40-45%, night RH 50-55% Light distance: 26-30cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 0.4

RickC137 Grow conditions: Lux: 85 000 - 90 000 Temperature (day): 22-24°C Temperature (night): 14-20°C RH: 40-45%, night RH 50% Light distance: 26-30cm Light intensity: 100% EC: 0.4

RickC137 I´ve harvested waay more than I expected to harvest. I´m satisfied with overall yield, bud quality and effects.😎 King´s juice is my favourite strain I have ever smoked or grown! 😍 Absolutely love it, I will definitely grow this again as soon as possible.

RickC137 She was easy to grow, stayed small and compact, like typical indica. Small but packed buds, lots of trichomes.

RickC137 She was a bit picky to the growing condition, not the easiest one to grow from plants I´ve had in this grow, but definitely not hard to grow. Just keep conditions on point and she will be happy.

RickC137 She was easy to grow, tall sativa plant appearance, huge citrusy buds with loads of trichomes. She smelled a lot, carbon filter definitely reccomanded.😛

RickC137 Growing her was a bit picky during the grow. I´d say she was hardest to grow from them all. But nothing hard, suited for beginners, have to watch ph and that´s that. She matured last from all my plants.
