Shiskaberry SCROG

MrHyde_VA First week of Veg!! Girls started showing early stages of both nitrogen and magnesium deficiency. Increased the nitrogen and 1 tsp of Epsom salt and smooth growing! Transplanting into 1 gallon pots next week.

MrHyde_VA Corrected the nitrogen and magnesium issues before they got bad and the girls responded beautifully! Absolutely exploding with growth since being transplanted.

MrHyde_VA Decided to try something different this time. I usually top for the first time at node 4 or 5. This time I decided to wait slightly longer and topped two of the plants at node 7. Very minimal recovery time. Interested to see how they bush out. Will also be super cropping, and adding a screen for SCROG next week!

MrHyde_VA Absolutely INSANE growth rate over the past 9 days! Transplanted to final pots, 5 gal fabric. This was my first time in coco loco, next grow I’ll just do one transplant instead of two. Every 2-3 days they’re drinking almost a gallon each! Super cropped two and topped the other for the first time at node 9. Adding the screen this upcoming week!

MrHyde_VA Finally added my homemade SCROG net. It’s a 3.3’x3.3’ x 27” 1/2” pvc for the frame. Wire Mesh/Pig Wire. Much better then regular trellis netting. One more week in Veg and these girls will be flipping to flower!

MrHyde_VA 6th and final week of flower!!! Really pleased with everything up to this point! Plants are drinking 1.25 gallons every 2-3 days and they are loving a feed/feed/plain water schedule and happy as can be!

MrHyde_VA First week of flower in the books! Unfortunately, there was a male hiding in plain sight. One of the two I had super cropped, so he’s gone. Other then that I’m really pleased with how well they are filling out the screen. Won’t be using the entire screen, solely because the lights I’m using can’t effectively cover that area, only 2.3’x 3’ of it. Upgrading lights after this grow to cover the full 4x4 space.

MrHyde_VA Second week of flower in the books. Still upset that one turned out to be a male but, what can ya do. Definitely have two completely different phenos of the Shiskaberry. One is staying short and the other stretched way past it, but I’m happy with the node spacing! Can’t wait to see how the pack on the weight over the coming weeks!!

MrHyde_VA End of week three and I’m not sure if it’s to drastically different phenos or two different strains. Both plants have received the same nutrients, light, environment, training. But one stretched almost 16” and the other one stretched maybe 5” lol.

MrHyde_VA Well it’s obvious now, they definitely mixed up some seeds when packing these. Supposed to be Indica dominant and one of these is definitely pure Sativa or Sativa dominate. So I’ve got one Shiskaberry and one I’m not sure but I think it’s Amnesia Lemon (Amnesia Haze x Lemon Skunk). Going to have two separate harvests now but oh well, both girls are happy and healthy!

MrHyde_VA The Shiskaberry, in the front is really packing on the weight. Buds are super dense!! The Amnesia Lemon is slowly starting to swell up. Definitely smells like Lemon Skunk while the Shiskaberry has a really fruity diesel smell!

MrHyde_VA Well both plants are looking fantastic!! The Shiskaberry (indica) will be ready around 60 days. The Amnesia Lemon (sativa) I’m guessing 70-75 days. Very distinct aromas from each. Berrys and diesel, Lemons and Skunk!

MrHyde_VA The Shiskaberry is almost done. Couple more weeks and she’ll be coming down. The Amnesia Lemon has almost another month to go! Wish i hadn’t gotten lazy and put more work in on the Amnesia. Yield would be better if the colas were only around 7-10”. These lights don’t penetrate that far into the canopy and most of these are over 12”.
