So I started island chill in water 1st. After 24hrs i put her in a paper towel. Not using a heatmat this time because the room temp is 75f.
I only use heatmat If temps are 70f or lower. The grow is in a basement so it gets cold. .
I germed in paper towel vertically. The tap root knows gravity and it helps hanging the paper towel vertically compared to horizontal.
I placed the seed into the soil today 11/3
She should be up by Tomorrow or next day.
She shares the tent with
2x cherry gar-see-ya (ethos)
3x LMFAO (elev8)
1x sour diesel (Cali connection/ alter ego)
& now
1x island chill (exotic genetix)
11/6- been sprouted couple days. Doing good. Only using spray bottle to water. Just keeping the soil wet at the stem base.
I'll keep doing this until she big enough to water with nutes.
Everything is growing well. I think they would of been better if I didn't feed them plus I think I over watered for being so little.
Since island chill is a regular seed I will just use some LST on her when bigger.
11/15- still doing good. I fed them all with earth dust base by the green sunshine company. Can't get it no more because they are going out of business.
Growing good. Just watering at around 6.5ph.
I added earth dust so they have food in the living soil.
I will probably do some LST soon. Idk, I might even do a topping.
Just have to see how things are going
So far this plant is growing good and on time.
This I growing good. I haven't done any training. It could be a male. I'm okay with that. I would harvest pollen.
Well see. Up potted so it can get more growth and ultimately bigger
So this plant hasn't been topped like the other ones. I don't know if it's a boy or girl yet. I will flip in about 2 or 3 weeks. I want them to grow into their new pots. I uppot to 5gal fabric.
I love how fast it's growing. Might need do more training on it and add a trellis.
This plant is beautiful and very indica leaning. Which I like indica over sativa.
Still not sure of the sex. I hope a female.
I decided to do a trellis net this run. I also have a second one with wider squares.
I'm going to let them veg another week before I decide to flip them. I did a little under the trellis trimming. Mostly covered fan leaves.
One more week. I wish I knew the sex already. Fingers 🤞 crossed she goes by she.
So I been lst them under the net. Everything is going great and this plant is a female. I've seen her pistils on one spot.
Very excited about that. We got a female. Yippy.
I also added the 2nd part of earth dust base .
Earthdust boost. I added that and flipped to 12/12.
Next week is flower week and that's good
The island chill turned out to be a female which I'm very happy about. I might knock her up with something in my pollen stash.
So far everything is great. The heat gets up there. It was 86f. I have a 6in cheap inline fan exhausting. I had to add another 4in fan and now the temp is back down to 79f.
Now it's all good
I remove a few leaves here and there. She's back in the corner so I feel like she isn't getting enough air and was getting watered with the rest and now seems a little sad and droopy. Not much but it's there.
It's getting better.
I'm excited to see this girl flower.
Aren't you? Let's watch together.

The plant is doing good. Easy to overwater but snaps out of it fast.
I have her in the back corner so it's not getting enough air.
The tent got to hot and I had to add a 2nd exhaust system. Still gets up to 81f sometimes 84f max. That's still too hot.
My Dehumidifier heats up the area outside the tents so I have to turn it off occasionally.
Still growing good. She is in back corner so she doesn't get as much wind or drink as much water as the rest. She is the tallest one in the tent. Starting to get frosty. Can't wait till there some big colas to take pics of.
Nothing new.
I added final dose of earthdust boost.
Should be water only from now on.
Island chill is growing good. She is showing signs of phosphorus deficiency. I added some nectar of the gods as a boost for the flowers. Hopefully it gets the phos Def in check.
The plants is the tallest in the tent.
Tallest clones also in the other tent.
I'm happy with this girl but her buds seem small still at this stage. They needed fed before I did.
Get them in check and we be all good.
Got a new light sponsor- mars hydro fc-e3000. So far I love the light.
So she was feeding on herself due to a late dry amendments feeding. I helped them out with some nectar of the gods.
They seemed to love it and stop fading. It was a little to early for them to fade.
Now everything is on track. Buds are getting fatter and frosty.
So I skipped a few weeks. My bad.
This island chill 🏝️ is not finished yet. It's wk 10 flower in 2 days. I feel she needs to go to week 11 or even 12. I'm going to chop her soon. Maybe 10.5wk flower. I need the tent for my new sprouts that are waiting till the tents open.
The island chill was the tallest plant in the grow. Even the clones stretched alot.
Very frosty and fat buds. Fattest buds on this plant out of the whole grow also.
I'll post harvest pics and stuff next week.
Love this strong flower. Tallest plant. Tool longest to mature. Classic taste and smell. Just good dank buds. Super dense. I love her and wouldn't mind trying a second round with her. Or a 3rd since I've already run clones.
