This is my second grow, my first feminized run. I have followed ILGM's breeder instructions by germinating in water for 24 hours. Both seeds showed tails and were moved into fox farms ocean forest on 9/8/22.
Both seeds sprouted on 9/10/22
Plants were transplanted on 9/22. Moved to 3 gallon fabric pots. Watered with about a .75 litres til I achieved runoff. Transplants went smoothly.
I raised the light and my clip-on fan about 6 inches each.
All growth seems nominal so far.
Will allow them to settle into their new homes until I can begin training and topping.
Really happy again with this the progress of this grow. Genetics seem strong. LST was performed on both plants today.
This week we are feeling conditions from a hurricane. Extensive flooding in my area. Somehow I still have power. Hoping it holds. Have some battery powered LED (not strong by any imagination, but enough light to keep them on a light cycle) to run for a few days for when it presumably will be lost. But for the time being I'm really enjoying how nicely the plants are coming along. Glad I worked an emergency plan in for the Crop.
*Update* power is gone and battery powered LEDs will be going out at regular lights out time.
The plant was trained a little further over the weekend and topped on Tuesday 10/5. The plants watering and light cycles have remained consistent. The plants are still not being fed nutrients of any sort although a very gentle addition of Foxfarms organic.
I may simply top dress with fresh soil to help refill the fabric pot. The hot soil should provide some more nutes. as these plants begin to canopy I plan on removing lowering bottom foliation, but not just yet as the plants were just topped and don't need additional stress. Until there is more spread happening up high the lower stuff is staying on.
So far this grow has been fun exited to see them start really taking off.
Have only given one small feeding of fox farms organic. Otherwise just water has been given to the plants. Although, I did topdress the soil with more of the original medium. Allowing plants to veg a little longer before I trim lower growth and fan leaves, then throwing up a trellis. Shortly there after these girls will be ready for flower. Longer than I expected, but I imagine these things will boom where I topped them.
This post is two days late, but the plants are doing great, gave general feeding for grow big and tiger bloom. They will receive one more watering as well as a lower dose of big blooms we transition to flower in the coming week or so. At that time big bloom nutes will be tapered in in place of grow big.
Continuing to tuck and fill. Will give about 10-15% defoliation, this will include under the canopy and any bunched up areas in the canopy.
Expect to do all of this in the coming week or two.

The plants got flipped to flower earlier this week, hoping I didn't underestimate the size of these two. Keeping them tucked until about an inch from either side. Really testing the limits of this 2x2. But they still have tons of vert to stack, which is well, what I'm going for
The last feeding really perked the girls up, they clearly needed the water, but loved the nutes. I tapered down the veg nutes, and introduced big bloom per their supplemental/foliar feeding recommendations on both; the fox farm organic got it's first full general feeding run.
