Just used Great White when transplanting into 1g pots on day 15. 2 girls looked hungry and after 24 hours none of them look hungry. I won't feed for about 3 weeks but I'll start with Fish Shit and Recharge next water (alternating both). I'll give them another 2 days and then start thinking about topping. The Gary Poppins are close to ready now, Apple Cups are the slowest growing in Veg but they all handled the transplant well enough.
*Watered 3 days after Transplanting into 1g AND lifted the light 6-10" and dropped the intensity to 40% - NOW they're happy as hell. Until I made those changes they were canoe-ing and the light's a little more intense over the AC's so it makes sense they were also drooping first. SOOO happy now by comparison and I raised it 2-3 more inches when I saw the response. From now on, with this 200w light I'll run the light at the top of the tent, start at 30% for Wk 1 then go to 40% for the rest of Veg (and just let them grow up into the light). If I change that plan, I'll revise this comment.
I mist twice a day for the first 2 weeks, so thankfully that nightmare is over (they're SO happy every time with that watering sched) and now I'll be watering every 3rd or 4th day (I'll figure it out by picking them up every day but 1g's of Coco Loco dry out faster, eventually I'll be in 3g of Coco Loco which go 5 days before I water again until late in flower) and I'll be feeding every third watering regardless so WxxxxWxxxxFxxxxxW in 1g's but I'll do the same when I transplant into 3g and flip to flower.
I want to wait a couple-3 more days, until I see more activity/growth before I FIM them.
Thanks for visiting, be safe out there and good luck with your grow!
Am I crazy to expect any potency when growing from seeds? Last run looked perfect for the 61 days in flower but now = weak af after spending $$ on genetics. This after 3-4 runs of perfect looking weak-ass weed. I'm about to sell my lights out of frustration. Flower longer? Help?
Interesting.. definitely would experiment with trich maturation if you haven’t already.
Bud looks done to me tho.
You got 3 different breeders here, so should have something decent from them.
All 3 were bunk? I mean like can you quantify it? Like just not quite hitting that spot but still getting you high - or just not getting you high unless you sit and smoke an ounce?
I recently sprung for breeder clones that have been a nice significant step up from growing from seed. Maybe check into that?
I dunno man I feel for ya tho if you don’t seem to be getting decent smoke from a great looking grow like that.
Your weed is fucking amazing and I refuse to let you quit! Just need little tweaks because your grows look fantastic and you clearly have a talent. Just need deeper insight to polish the rough edges.
@Ultraviolet, Thanks so much for the support Ex! You bring up some great points I had not considered, and to be fair- things are probably not as apocalyptic as first reported. My wife and I have been able to sample each a little more this morning and there are definitely keepers worth curing. I've been hurt before lol repeatedly with my grows but with everything dialed in I honestly think my expectations got the best of me more than any other grow. I've had some friends talk me off the ledge today so I won't sell off everything yet but I really appreciate the motivation here.
You are solely focused on production, once your trichomes start popping up they are sensitive to radiation, like anything. I noticed you keep your temps high right until harvest. Terpenes such as myrecene start to degrade above 67, half life's slowly eroding, weakening as time goes on. In nature the long nights that trigger flowering come with cooler air, this preserves also comes with higher levels of blues, which are responsible for manufacture and levels of terpenes and flavonoids. There are stessors you can use to trick the plant into accumulating and storing up rather than releasing. In nature once flowering has started and no fertilization of the females has occured the plant will go into overdrive in a last ditch attempt to attract pollination. Knowing when and how to manipulate this function is the key to "strong" weed.
Last week's of ripenenin should be spent no higher than 70 and 60 at night if preservation is priority.
@PersonalSmok3s, Thanks so much bud! It's been a great run.
I've got some Robin Hood Red Hot OG in the works but I'm with you- more Exotic Genetics grows are def in my future!
Have a great weekend and keep cranking out those awesome diaries!
