She is super stretchy. Last one did this and I think it played into why it failed. I tried to put some of stem in the medium and it didn’t like it. So this go round I’ll just let her be tall

She is yellow due to not having roots in water yet and I went a day or 2 without watering trying to get her to reach down to the water. I think she is good now but she still hasn’t grown roots as much as I’d like

Well I seen the snot just starting on the root a few days ago by I think i caught it and took care of it with a few hydrogen peroxide washes. Got some small air stones for this lil jar cuz I’m sure this is where my root problems are starting and I just transferred it to the dwc. She was droopy but over night seems to have perked up a little bit. This is only my 2nd run with dwc so I’m thinking I got lucky starting my 1st with no real issues

Well I gave lotus nutes a try and I think it’s trash. Switched back to general hydro flora 3 part after trying to add zinc and the solution went cloudy. Glad it happened cuz now I’ll just go back to what worked last grow. 2 pics are just after water change and other 2 are this morning which is just a day after change and she already has more green back. Idk why I wanted to change nutes

Just on cruise control now. Probably take more clones soon just to keep her from getting too big. Leaves curling big time but I just can’t seem to find the cause. I may turn the light down even more just to see what happens. Besides that she seems super happy, producing some huge fans

She is starting to drink about a gallon every 2 days now. I’ve been putting it off due to holidays and birthday but I have to do some major defoliating and trimming but idk if I’ll be able to keep her in veg much longer. She is just growing so good now I just want to get her in the flower tent already but that’s not happening for another 4 weeks at the earliest. So I’ll take some more cuts for clones next weekend, so far I’m 3 for 3 on clones rooting

Removed quite a few leaves and branches this week. Trying to get more light to penetrate and getting a good head start on lollipoping. She is crazy stable. Just mixing my normal nute mix, getting it to 5.5ph and topping off bout a half gallon a day so far. Adding the water at 5.5 has kept it around 6. I’ll drop the reservoir to 5.7 maybe once week. Few more weeks and we will move her to the flower tent, few more weeks, can’t wait to get her over there so she can have some room to stretch her arms out lol

Things are starting to get a lil cramped in the 3x3. Add floralicious grow and got bloom for later. Hoping that will help with aroma and taste. All my girls in the flower tent look like they will all finish together so maybe another month and I’ll flip this girl

She is getting closer and closer to that damn light lol. I’m hoping to have her moved for next update but idk them dang autos don’t want to finish. I don’t know what I’m gonna do about trying to halfass spread this girl out. Not training her was a bad move I think but we will see Oh almost forgot. Her ph has been dropping on me so that’s new. I probably should have changed her water but I’m stubborn and refuse unless she tells me she not happy lol. I will change it when I’m ready to flip her to flower

Well I can’t remember if I mentioned this in last update but my ph is dropping like no tomorrow. I’ll get it up to 6.5 at times and it will bottom out at 5.3 in 2 days. I screwed up and let the ppm jump up to 700+ not paying attention so not sure if that’s it. Slowly dropping ppm back down. Did some branch snapping to try and slow her down and now getting yellow leaves but that could be the high ppm and ph fluctuating. I’m hoping to get her into the flower tent next weekend and then I’ll change the water. I’m putting it off.

Ok we moved to the flower tent after my last update. I know I know that’s not the way you use the net but I’m mainly just trying to even her up and spread her out. We will see how it works out. I think I’ll keep her in veg at least one more week while I slowly clean up the bottom. I started dropping light schedule back 30 to an hour a day so I guess I’m not really flipping but a gradual change. I may remove the net once im happy with her growth but idk yet. Oh I did have a lil trouble with her after the move. Had a lot of yellowing leave but that cleared up

Sorry I’m dealing with some messed up relationships problems so I’m not focusing on my grows like I need to. I removed the net cuz it was doing more harm than good imo. Done more lower clean up. Slowly continue to drop lights back to 12/12. I think I’m 14/10 atm. I don’t like how she is doing but it’s only my fault for neglecting her. Regardless I’m sure she will turn out great

The vid is a few days before the pics. She has been stretching a lil more each day the past 2-3 days. Removed a few more small branches and bud sites that aren’t getting light but need to remove more. Might let her ride thou. Thinking bout getting a par meter so I can dial in my light better, if anyone has suggestions on a good but not too expensive please let me know

Had a few mishaps this week with my light schedule. Working nights now so I was not home when the lights were on and it was screwing up everything so I bumped the lights up and hour every night till it was turning on at midnight which is when I get off of work now. Well during that process a few things happened. My ac infinity controller 69 pro had lost wifi so I had been needing to do a reset because it’s still throwing an alert but I don’t use alerts so something’s wrong anyway I unplugged it during lights out and during the process of plugging it back in or something the lights decided to come on for a few seconds I believe is all it was so no worries it’s only once. Well that reset didn’t work so CS told me how to do it another way and I was able to do the reset but it didn’t work and I can’t remember exactly how it happened but later on the afternoon when the lights supposed to be off I realized I had the on for 23 hours 59 minutes and 59 sec lmao oops. So I went over 12hr by 2 hours so I just changed the schedule to give her 12hrs of dark then went back to my normal schedule but she only get 10 hrs of light that day. That was like a 2 or 3 day span of screwing up and I think I had another blip of the light turning on during dark period but can’t remember, trying to put that behind me and hope I didn’t stress her too much. She has been doing well besides that drama. Her ph has been crashing down to 5.5 fairly quick lately but I been on top of it. Got my auto top off setup I’ll see if I can add a pic, very simple gravity feed. I’ve noticed I’m pushing my limits on ppm, seeing some slight tip burn. Oh yeah bumped the light up to 7. Now on 7 of 10 which according to my new meter is not as bright as i expected

Well I think changing my light schedule around for my work schedule changing may have been too much stress. All my plants hermed on me :(. Chopped the worst of the 4 and picked off all the sacs from this one and my clone. Hopefully she doesn’t do it again. Germinating 2 autos now. I should probably start a diary for them now that I think about it

Lil late this week with my dairy. Well I finally broke down and changed the water out cuz I was having so much trouble with the oh dropping. Now her ph climbs slowly as it should. Started with low ppm after the change and slowly brought it up. She lost a lot of leaves in this week, from the bad water before the change and low ppm after I’m sure. Looks like nitrogen but i could be wrong.

Some of my pics weren’t wanting to load so idk I could have loaded the same twice lol. Anyway fairly calm week. Nothing special to report. She seems to be happy. Leaves are canoeing but they have kinda done that her entire life so I’m not paying attention too much. Had issues with ph dropping, not sure if I talked about that last week or if it happened this week but I switched back to GH ph down and my ph stabilized immediately. Not too impressive with fox farm but I was thinking maybe it’s cuz I’m running GH nutes and their down does agree for some reason but it sucks. I’d add down it would drop from 6.6 to 5.8 or whatever it would go to and 15 minutes later be back up some times higher then before I added

Well I noticed this week which I kinda figured it happened anyway but I found seeds. Looks like foxtailing but I’m pretty sure it’s seeds cuz I’ve seen a few. Good thing is my other plant that is in soil seems to need be pollinated. Oh well I needed to start doing water hash so this will kinda force me to wash it. I have a lil washing machine and even a harvest right freeze dryer just haven’t done any yet lol. Kinda sad lol

Well I know better next time I grow this strain to use a net cuz she getting heavy. Looks like I have a week or 2 left but I’ll be scoping her daily but I just ran out of personal so it’s gonna be hard not to chop early lol. Might do a partial harvest idk Almost forgot, getting a bunch of foxtailing yet again which has me worried she might herm again but so far I haven’t spotted any. I think my cheap light might be the problem but I’m not sure. I ran this grow at 80% but I’m going 100% next grow just to see what happens lol

Not much to update besides keeping an eye out for her herming. Picked a few off but I’m worried I missed one awhile back cuz she is full of seed in the tops. Had to do some tying up for support cuz buds getting heavy. My father pasted Sunday and now my mother is in the hospital so I’m having to neglect my girls but I’m hoping nothing goes wrong for the next couple weeks

She is struggling to hold herself up. I think I dropped my ppm too soon but I been worried I’d make her throw more nanners and I don’t have the time to look her over to catch them. Besides that she seems like she is trying to ripen but slowly. I think this will be the last sativa I grow for awhile due to the length of flowering and they just haven’t been doing it for me. Anyone wondering, my mom is doing better but still in hospital

Changed water last week. Besides that just trying to get to the finish line. She ain’t nothing to write home about, full of seeds. But it’s the first plant I’ve had seed out and I’ll get to get some experience washing and using my freeze dryer. I don’t think she will go no more then another week, I’m trying to get plenty of amber to try and make up for it being seedy lol. By the way for anyone that’s been following my personal life I’ve spoke about; We found out it was a stroke my mom had but she is doing much better now. Got scary there for a minute where she was good one day and the next she couldn’t think of words she wanted to say but she came back around the last few days. So we probably aren’t out of the woods yet but I’m praying she will be able to come home soon and I’m thinking about giving up the city life and moving back home to be with family. Id be able to explore outdoor growing then and id been missing the country lately anyway

Sorry lil late doing this update. I’ve been pretty much flushing her for the last 2 days. I pumped out the bucket and put in nothing but ro water but it only cut the ppm in half. I haven’t decided if im chopping tonight or going pump the water out again and get it down lower for a day or 2 more. Im pretty sure she is done. Really doesn’t matter cuz she is ugly and full of seed lol

Not an easy grow. Definitely need a net for this strain. Doesn’t like light schedule changes.
