10/4/23 The Black Jack clones are almost indestructible I have lost all my other seeds except Critical and Space Panda
I planted the seeds a few days ago and I did the clones from a black jack fast flower from sweet seeds. It’s more of an experiment because that one was in the 11th week of flowering when I took the cuttings I was just bored. then the next day I decided to cut the flowers off the top of the cuttings and smoke them so I don’t know what these cuttings are going to do. I normally just start from seed. They are the experiment.
Well, I try and keep these five normal seeds growing I got really sick of autoflower and the way they taste and they don’t produce very much. I had bugs in the soil last time, so I have to be careful about that too I don’t think there’s anything I can do to avoid it so I’m just going to spray with the Humboldt secret and the garden spray I found on Amazon it’s in a white bottle but it’s for indoor vegetables white bottle with I’ll take a picture of it
8/2 I think a couple of seeds have begun to germinate the clones. I really can’t tell yet. I’m just waiting game now.
8/5 I am seeing roots on the black jack cuttings so the clones have worked none of the seeds of hope through yet. I took out the tray, emptied the water, washed it and put it back together. I’m really happy they worked
8/6 I read an article on this website about rockwool for cloning even though I used rapid rotor the roots are starting to show, so I’m going to be transplanting them into their big containers which I should’ve planned ahead for because now I have to buy more soil, and the last soil I had was full of bugs not great. I have a lot of work to do today
My black jack, the one I took the clones off of and the gorilla girl F1 fast version are faster than fast buds, gorilla cookies, auto flower, and the smoke is much more enjoyable. Autoflower‘s were fun for my first couple of years of growing but now that I Know what I’m doing it’s just I like these. I can still taste a little bit of the Autoflower gene but once it’s cured out a little better, I’m sure that taste go away but the F ones fast version are definitely the way to go.
8/7 all 5 of the clones took I will have to get some soil ready I’m gonna veg them slow and maybe just grow two of them and keep the other one and veg for long as I can.
None of the seeds have sprouted that concerns me. I planted them on the 26th so I don’t know I did make some mistakes. I’m using the glass dropper to water them now before I was pouring water on top. You are not supposed to do that you’re supposed to water them from the side and I also put the seeds in too deep so they’ll eventually show up I’m sure. I also used a solution instead of just water that might’ve had a bad effect too so today I just use the dropper and pH adjusted water on the seeds.
8/9 Im going to transfer the clones to solo cups today. I can't do 5 three gallon plants at a time. None of the seeds sprouted yet...so I probably killed them with the nutrient solution for the clones.... im kind of fucking retarded.
8/10 the tap roots on 2 of them are long. no seeds sprouted yet. me messed up.
8/12 I hurt my foot and haven't been able to walk,, so I can't do any planting or filling containers with dirt...so pissed. I hope I didn't kill the 2 good clones I had going. If I can walk tomorrow I hope to get everything into 3 gallon fabric pots.
8/13 tendon pulls in old feet really suck. if I can walk without falling im going to transplant the clones...and dig out the dead seedlings I killed some of the best seeds on the planet...really really want to break lots of shit
8/14 I screwed everything up. I have two clones that work and a lot of them are covered in algae now I had an injury so I couldn’t walk for days so I’m gonna see what I can salvage this week.
I think I managed to kill all five seeds from different seed companies so if you were wondering, can you possibly kill five seeds from five different seed companies? Yes it can be done. I should write a fucking book.
8/17 found out my ex in-laws died today so I didn't get to transplant. Try again tomorrow
I have made no progress on this girl at all. I’m going to try and do the transplanting today
8/30/2023 i’ve been working on another tent set up so I didn’t get to do anything on her today can I gotta do it tomorrow
9/2 can't move for days so its probably going to die. hope to get it woking again soon
9/3 sleeping in 3 hr shifts when your old is fun. I forgot to buy more dirt...so that sucks have enough for a couple 3 gal plants
I actually got it done I transplanted two of them into 3 gallon pots. The other went into the little cups. The roots were dry and I tore them pulling them out so I don’t know if these are gonna take it was pretty rough.
Did I mention I killed all 5 seeds? Yes. So im going to do them in water then transfer to soil or into the Root Riot thing if the Fox Farm OF shows up in 5 days.
9/4 The 5. seeds that were in the root plugs for 5 weeks all dead. I was injured so I lost a couple weeks couldn't walk.
9/6 Wednesday I got some 4 inch ducting and I put it on the other side of the tent so I have two filtered air intakes and it makes the grow tent looks like a robot so I’m gonna have all three of them look like the storm trooper robots it’s gonna be really cool I don’t really have a lot of plants growing in them but it’s important to make the grow tents look like robots that’s my number one goal
I got new ducting, matching chip clips to hold the ducting to the tent, and the hand turned duct clamps are absoullty necessary for removing the MERV 13 material I roll into cones inside the duct.
9/7. They are doing great. The clones have taken to the new containers. I was so worried because the roots were dry. I didn’t take care of them for quite a while and as I took them out of the cloning tray, I ripped the roots pretty bad, but they are working. I think that this plant is indestructible. I have really done everything wrong. I took the clones during the late flowering process and then flip them over and then I just did it all wrong. It was funny it’s like watching the Three Stooges. I had a foot injury so I couldn’t walk. It was even funnier watching that.
9/8 going to soak rapid rooter in clone X clone solution along with piranha and some carboload. My only problem now is to make sure I don’t screw it up and forget which plant is which
I am mixed up. My solution are used all of the advanced nutrients soil perhaps are used piranha, tarantula and votive juice. I did 1 mL of each of those into a little bit less than 3 quarts or 96 ounces a little bit more than 2 L. So I’m going to soak them in a little plastic container for a few hours.
Holy moly, that was a lot of work. I watered the five clones with the leftover cloning solution. I will soak the others and then put in the seeds and then wait a few days. I will start filling up the 3 gallon pots with dirt. It takes me a long time to do all those I can’t believe I have this many going at one time is not what I wanted to do
9/9 Saturday. I am amazed at how well the clones are doing. I highly recommend the clone X solution it looks like the same company but I don’t think it is I got a quart of it on Amazon and there’s two different companies that make clinics gel I think I don’t know what it is but it works great.
I soaked rapid rooter and the solution I made, and I’m going to transfer the seeds over today. It looks like some of the seeds that I had sitting in there for a month in the damn probably didn’t make it so I screwed that one up it’s still pretty funny that I did that. I’m going to start on the other ones.
This is the nicest hobby I’d rather live a shorter amount of time and grow my own medicine than live a long time hooked up to a fucking machine.
9/10 I decided to go with 3 or 4 Critical + AUTO's because they are very small and I can fit them in the tent with bigger plants. AUTOS are usually too big
I just checked on the clones. They are doing great. I forgot how much different the structure of a growing clone plant is from one from a seed. Plants growing from a seed are symmetrical. The branches are on either side at each node when you grow a clone however, each node is a space above the other ones so it is going to be a little different. I remember learning about that when I went to Oaksterdam in Los Angeles to learn how to grow marijuana in 2009 or 10.
9/11 Monday. The clones are the most impressive experiment I’ve ever done. They are growing perfectly. I wasn’t sure how they would turn out. They looked pretty gnarly at first but now this is great. I’m so happy I tried this it’s going to be a different grow experience I don’t know how to train plants from a clone. Their leaves are staggered instead of across from each other. This is going to be great. I’m very happy about that. These are the strongest plants.
9/12 I always get confused filling out the amounts of 2 L of water. I am pretty sure I put 2 mL each of the three part and then I did 1 mL each of piranha tarantula and VooDo juice and carboload the sugar. Using the three advanced nutrients root zone, nutrients along with the carboload sugar Makes a huge difference
I put black curtains in the grow room, they match the tents. I had a moving blanket to cover the window, worked great but not very sci-fi looking. Going to make some black canvases with black gesso, its black primer for canvas and make some design on the wall.
9/13 Most important thing I did was use Advanced Nutrients VooDoo Juice, Tarantula, Piranha with Carboload sugar. I can see it growing in the soil and all the plants are 100% better than the last grow where I didn't use them.
9/14 I think I’m gonna flip two of them over to 1212 maybe I’ll wait and just do it on Monday but they are all growing. Just great. I think I’m gonna take cuttings from now on. I think it took maybe two months for them to really grow anyway, it was faster than buy save still different. Everything‘s great though.
It’s almost nighttime. I turned all of the plants around, so they grow evenly and veg as they’re under the lights. They are doing incredible. Oh my God I can’t believe it it’s just great. I took some pictures of that tent. That looks pretty cool too. I like my set up.
9/15 they were all pretty dry so I got the water down to 6.4 on the pH and then I did the medium feeding schedule for the early growth second week phase. They are looking great I did not add any more of the microbes into the soil from advanced nutrients I think they’re doing good on that.
9/16 these are doing much better. The leaf surface is at least twice as broad as the last one. I am using Foxfarm ocean forest what a difference. I was using bio biz, light soil and that was no good. I did not get good results plus it was full of tiny little bugs. The seeds I put in the root riot it didn’t work either, so I’m just gonna use Foxfarm soil from now on for everything except cloning.
9/17 I managed to kill like 10 seeds so far. I really screwed up. Trying new ways should’ve never done that. However, I have made my grow room look like Darth Vader‘s castle. All my grow tents have arms like robots and black curtains. it’s pretty cool, Star Wars night lights, all the TP Link switches I use have blue lights, so that looks cool
I found a seed in the laundry room no idea...then I found the White Widow I lost it was soaking in.a glass in the back of the cabinet.... dead
They are looking good. I gave them a little plain water. They dry out pretty fast in the little cups. The advanced nutrients the three products for the soil microbes it’s really phenomenal. Does a great job works great with the Foxfarm soil. I have to start over with my other plants I’m gonna get some cups. I can’t believe I keep killing all these seeds and then finding them in the laundry room and then I lost one in a cabinet somehow it’s great when your brain starts fading out.
9/19 I clean and sterilized the tent and I put in some new electrical stuff. I’m gonna keep the switches inside instead of outside the tent. I posted some pictures of my set up in case I forget later. The plants the clones are doing great. They are way stronger than the mother plant because I am using the right soil so the stocks are very thick. These are really great plants. It’s phenomenal to see the difference when you grow one from a seed and you have bad soil, and it has thin stocks And then you grow one in soil a clone, which is the exact same plant and you see the difference and how strong it is with the right kind of Foxfarm soil I was using bio biz lights, and it was full of soil bugs ruined my grow.
9/20 Taking forever to setup the tent. tried some new things and didn't work. The plants are great! Spent 5 hours cleaning the grow room, setting up the new tents. I REPLACED the Vivosun fans with new ones. I run them 24/7 so once they are 2 years old I get new ones.
9/21 Failed Viparspectra XS1500.... after a year that light is half the light at twice the power. The led's didn't last. It works but at half the efficiency that it did a year ago. Im glad I returned the last one...hot and so disappointing. Im going to get an AC infinity next. these are JUNK. I'll be able to use it for Veging but that's it.....Never again Viparspectra.
9/22 I forgot to add a week it’s Friday today and I just added this one. I’m going to trim up the clones. They have branches glowing green places where they’re not gonna work and I want to take clones from these as well so I could probably have four more clones by the end of the day. I love this better than auto flower it’s fun to be able to do this and these blackjack they get tall, but they’re growing so perfect.
9/23 she looks good after the training yesterday is it a plastic devices did not help me on the plant from Steve but they’re very useful for a clone when the branches growing unpredictable way. They’re in flower now and I think they’re going to switch they’re going fast much faster than the other plant because of the soil. The other three clones are still in bed. I’m gonna keep them going slow for a while, this is my first clone experiment
I turned the light down by half on the other 3 clones so they will grow slower until I am ready to transplant them.
9/24 I gave them water today I took a picture of the feeding schedule and I am using up my old advanced nutrients supplements. I took a picture of all the ones that I’m using. I use them in 2 mL per gallon and that’s it. I think anything else would be too much, they specifically say use 2 milliliter per liter, no way
9/25 Monday the clones are doing great. They look like they’re starting to flower now they’re doing so much better than the other plants I took them from. I also took three clones from these two and I have them in the other tent and they are doing just fine even though I didn’t really do them right
9/26 I have two clones that are in flower now. I keep the other three in veg at low wattage. I’m only doing it at 40 W I don’t want them to grow. I’m just gonna keep them at where they’re at right now others that are in flower. I turned the light up to 118 or 120 just for flipping and then once they’re in flower turn it back to 100 or 110 because it just gets too hot.
I cleaned up some of the clones as best I could gave them some water. They’re looking great.
9/27 all the clones are looking good I overwatered two of the little ones in the cup so they got a little droopy. They’re doing pretty good I’m glad I took the clones. I lost a whole bunch of seeds. Hopefully this will make up for that loss I like fast flowers I like the ability to clone them.
10/4 These are the strongest plants. All the clones can survive anything. Critical is growing good so is Space Panda. ALL my other seeds died. I did some wrong, then I was injured and couldn't take care of them so they drown in the glass. Bad couple months with everything dying .
10/5 I got the new light from Mars Hydro. It has a smooth dimming feature instead of four preset settings that my old light had. the reflector around the edges makes a huge difference. It’s very nice.
I gave each of them about a liter of just water today
10/6 Mars Hydro light can run at higher wattage and cooler than the old lights, so far. Plant
10/6 Going to move the driver outside the tent today, love this light. Plants are responding in a big way to this light. Lower temps and higher wattage, driver outside the tent. Its perfect.
10/6 pm I didn’t get to move the driver outside but my first 12 hours with this light has been very good. I watched the plant really takeoff she responded well it’s brand new so it’s gonna be really efficient but I do want to take the driver outside and see if that makes any difference it may not so we’ll see.
10/7 move the driver outside the tent, put it on top behind the black, blackout curtain. I put over the tent for light leaks. I found an old rolling tray and turned it upside down, and I just rested the driver on top of that, so it would be sitting on metal not directly on the tent. The temperatures went down. I just love the light I wish I would’ve known about Mars hydra a lot sooner.
10/8 moving the driver outside the tent, helped keep the temperature down by two or 3°, which is all I need to keep it below 80°. The plant is responding extremely well. She has nice thick branches just perfect.
10/9 Monday. All of the clones seem to be doing well. They’ve been under quite a bit of stress I put three that were in the root riot into 18 ounce party cups with Foxfarm dirt yesterday I’m using the AC Infiniti cloning tray with the two lights on it that is really nice. You can get about six party cups in there.
Eight hours later the clones are flowering, so great I accidentally turned the light down to 108 W. I turned it back to 138 just 10% off of maximum I want to see how that will do. It’s probably too high we’ll see.
10/10/23 Tuesday. It was a little too high, when the substrate dries out the temp goes up 4 to 5 degrees. light is at 122 watts and the plant responded quickly by raising her leaves back up.
I started trimming some of the clones that were in the cups in veg state took off quite a few yellow leaves. I’m gonna try and trim them down. I’m not ready to bring them into flower yet.
10/11 Wednesday. She’s looking great all of them are I decided not to take any more clones the clones of clones seem to be doing well. These blackjack are really something. The ones that are in flower are absolutely great. They’re responding well to the new Mars Hydro light I turned to 123 W with the driver outside the tent. that’s about as much as I can get without creating too much heat and it’s all I need for two plants. They really are doing great with them.
10/12/23 I gave 2L water with the three advanced nutrients root zone supplements 1ml along with rhino skin 1.5ml, and a .6 of cal mag
10/13 she’s doing really good. I gave her a little bit of water yesterday with the supplements. She responded well set it all the other plans doing good.
10/14 she’s going through water very fast the one in or I mean the two in flower so I did a full feeding with the supplements today. She looks a little stressed.
10/16 Monday. I gave the two that are growing in flower, a small amount of nutrients about 1 mL each and 2 L of water that I split between the two. I’m gonna move the other ones into 3 gallon containers. They’re going really good.
I didn’t get to move them into the containers. They’re going through water really fast it’s time to move them.
10/17 today I’m gonna try and do some replanting and planting. Everyone is looking great. The new light should be here today I hope.
10/18 I gave the light feeding and 1 mL per gallon of all the supplements
I got the new Mars Hydro TS 1000 today. I have two of them now I’m gonna use them to flower the blackjack because I can put the driver outside the tent. I was going to put my other two lights in one tent but I think that would just be ridiculously hot. It would never work. I’ve tried it before.
I’m using a TP link energy monitoring outlet for the lights that seems to work very well. I use the regular ones on everything else.
Maybe if I put both the lights in but keep them at 55 W each
10/19 I moved the plants around. I’m going to use the Mars Hydro light for flowering and pre-flowering. I have two viper spectra xs1500 lights in another tent, and as long as I don’t have them higher than 50 W they will be cool enough and have effective coverage enough for vegging and
I could probably lift one up if I wanted to put another shelf and do two layers, depending on how many clones I make
10/20 It was too hot even with the old lights at low watt. so just one in there now. Used Ata Bloombastic for the first time 1ml per gallon with nutrients and Rhino skin & 6ml Cal/Mag.
Turned the light DOWN to 120W and the other to 99W from 130 &110 it was too hot and too much for the plants I keep the lights as close as I can so Im always looking for heat stress and adjust accordingly
10/21 Saturday. The smaller clones are vegging very fine no problem. I’ll probably switch them into 3 gallon pots soon. The two larger clones that are flowering are doing great. I think the new fertilizers seem to do good.
Ever since the Apple update I can’t get the photos to update right Apple’s photos don’t work
10/24 I guess you can’t edit a photo on your computer and then have it saved to your phone or some weird bullshit anyway, the plants are doing better. She’s really starting to flower really good now I should have something usable by the end of this week because I am running out. She is so strong and so much different from the first time I grew her that’s really really great.
10/25 I bought some general hydroponics, silicone or silica. There’s no place to list it since they changed the product name or the company name. I just got it on Amazon because I could not find advanced nutrients rhino skin. I did a pretty heavy feeding today, even though I use the low nutrient feeding chart I am using the bloom tastic which I got from Amazon and it looks like it’s been overheated and spoiled so I’m gonna have to get it from somewhere else every time I buy something online from Amazon.
im going to try thchydro on amazon to get 325ml of Bloomtastic for 69.55. hope its good.
10/26 Ata Bloombastic by Atami arrived in the mail today from Amazon through THC Hydro it was the perfect color I got 325 mL of it. The total cost was about 67. I used some stuff that was from a different garden center in Florida. I bought also on Amazon and I think it was a small sample bottle and it didn't look like the product in the video, it was dark brown but the results were pretty spectacular so I’m really looking forward to this, I only use 1 mL or 2 mL in a gallon at a time but wow totally worth it
10/27 did some watering with the new nutrient. I trimmed a little off. She is doing really good growing just fine. I found white bugs on the outside of the grow bag. I don’t know what they are but they caused problems last time. I have two kinds of garden spray one from Humboldt Secret and one just a normal garden spray. I got online I try those.
10/28 The Ata Bloombastic is working better than before, because I got a little bottle of brown spoiled junk from a garden center in Florida that sells this product through Amazon that's rancid or bad. The new one is impossible to use a pipette with, too thick or chunks in it. However the results after one night are pretty miraculous. I never had visible results that fast.
10/29 watered today I used medium fertilizer and supplements. The three clones I transplanted into 3 gallon pots yesterday look like they’re doing pretty good. I have three smaller clones still in cups and they’re all in a tent with a space panda that I’m trying to veg out so I can take clones off of her later.
Now I realize it might be a little difficult with this diary because I have two clones in flower ready in a week then three clones I’m going to have in flower next week and three clones that I’m just gonna keep in veg so I don’t know what I’m gonna do
10/30 I gave the two clones and flower a light feeding with supplements but only the Boombastic and silica and calcium. I’m gonna grow them 2 maybe 3 more weeks and then I have three others. I’m gonna put into flower later this week. I just transplanted them yesterday I trimmed some off. I got enough, when it dries a couple of days for maybe 3 g I’m totally out. I cleaned off my desk and I am pretty sure I throw away more than most people buy
It’s been a couple hours since the watering and I am using the late growth schedule and my leaves are turning the light lime green color where they start to fade out all my other girls. I did not use general hydroponics and I didn’t fade out and I didn’t. It was all too dark green, and now it looks like it’s working just fine and the results with the bloom visible I can really see it. I wasted almost 300 on Bud factor X from advanced nutrients I got three bottles of it. They were all bad it did absolutely nothing but make things worse. They were probably counterfeit because I got them through Amazon , but this general hydroponics Terra aquatica now I guess they went and made everything confusing works pretty good. As long as I don’t use advance nutrients I’m not getting any terrible burns.
10/31 she’s doing very well with the Boombastic. I am seeing pretty significant growth on the buds now I’ve never had that before, so I have to be the new nutrient she’s looking really good.
It’s been about 12 hours and the blooms. The buds are really growing. I still have two or three weeks, but she is twice as much as my first attempt at this exact same plant that I took the clone from the other six clones are still in and doing OK.
11/1 Wednesday. The ones in flower are doing great. Still see a lot of white bugs on the bag. I don’t know what they are. I just spray for them. The flowers are incredible. I’m gonna do another watering today with nutrients and supplements.
It’s been a couple days the other blackjacks I have in various states of veg are doing pretty good after I transferred them from the solo cups. I will flip the three other blackjacks to flower next week & continue to veg the other three blackjacks I can’t believe I got so many this is the first time I took a cutting so it’s nice I can’t believe how nice that is and how much extra you get it on you kill all your other seeds
I did some light stress training on the remaining three clones that I transplanted earlier this week. They are doing very well. I should be able to bring them into flowers soon soon as I see a little darker leaves and some more establishment.
11/2 Tuesday. I trimmed up the older blackjacks and took some partial harvest. It’ll probably dry down to a half if that I did not train them very well so a lot of energy was wasted, growing, small branches that didn’t go anywhere I won’t make that mistake again. I’ve been growing the same plantalmost a year now with all the clones I’ve taken off of her it’s just been fantastic learning how this plant behaves. She loves pruning and temperatures below 80.
11/3 Friday. I gave her or both of them. I split a gallon of water with a late 10 part nutrient schedule and almost 4 mL of bloom tastic. I trimmed off the excessive branches, took some samples now that she’s got a lot of space and light. The last remaining colas should really start getting big now.
Turn the light from 125 to 112 watts in order to cool the tent a little bit.
it was getting over 80 and I couldn’t break that so I had to drop at 10 W and the plant has responded much better this way
She responded well to the watering this morning. I see a lot of growth & swelling in the buds.
The other clones are in veg and they will be ready. Probably Monday to bring over.
I ordered from Seedsman 5 Apricot auto by Fast Buds & I got banana purple punch 5 of those seeds free with it!!!!! I cannot wait to start those 👍
11/4 The ones in flower are doing great. They probably have another couple of weeks to go since I trimmed off all the pointless, small branches. They’ve really started to get big it must be because of the Boombastic supplement cause I’m not using anything else other than the three part from General hydroponics, and silica and calcium and that’s it. I’ve never had better results.
11/5 Saturday 👍👍👍
11/6 Monday I gave them each a gallon of water today late bloom supplements, and the bloom tastic I’m gonna put the other ones in the flower soon so these I’m gonna keep going. The Tricom are all mostly clear so I like to go a little longer. We’ll see how much I can get out of these.
The other clones going are doing really well train those today. I have three more clones. I’ll be putting into flower today.
11/7 I turned the light on the light flowering ones from 1:20 to 111. I’m trying to get the temperatures a little lower than the extra light isn’t gonna help. I just have trouble keeping the room cool.
I’ll put the other three clones into flower this week and then I have three additional clones from those clones I’m going to put into flower next month, I love taking cuttings and doing that. I’m lucky that I did it because I killed all of my seeds early this year. It’s nice to have back up plants.
Afternoon. I ended up having to give them another gallon of water split between the two of them. I did very light supplements cause I just did it, but she was completely dry and they needed all that I was kind of surprised.
11/8 Wednesday she’s been pretty uneventful since watering yesterday. I’m just trying to get her colas nice and big I have three others that are ready to go into flower. I still haven’t taken care of space panda. I just can’t manage more than four or five plants at once so these two are going to nice I’ve already smoked some of it and it’s great and it’s not even cured the buds are really dense that new nutrient really made a big difference
I want to go at least as big as I can with the colas. I don’t grow for the trichome color I just do it as long as I can to see how much I can get
11/9 I did some unexpected trimming. I got an ounce and a half wet and there’s stems in there so it’ll probably I don’t know little less than a half. It’s pretty dense.
Turned a wattage on the light down from 118 to 103 about 100 is all she need from here on now since I did a lot of trimming today
11/10 trimming the leaves and some buds off and lowering the lights has helped a lot she’s starting to really thicken up on the top. They’re very dense and getting more dense. They seem to be taking up water really well so these last three weeks should see some pretty significant growth.
They’re looking great, I have three more to turn to flower and then three more in veg I’m gonna have blackjack growing for a long time. I started this plant back in March and I’ve been able to keep it going and get eight plants from it so from one plant made up for all the other plants and seeds that died that I lost .
11/10 pm I set the timer on the other three clones to 1212 so they will start flowering so I’ll have flowers from these in two months. I’m gonna trim up all the small branches on this one. Maybe I can fit more in there
11/11 I watered them two days in a row earlier in the week so they were still pretty dry today. Not a lot of water uptake the other clones. I just flipped to 1212 I’ll probably start a new diary just with those cause this one’s too hard to do with a different clones in different phases
11/12 Sunday she was very thirsty. I gave them each a gallon of water with all the nutrients and supplements. Keep the light at 100 W and she’s good.
I just wanted to close this diary out. I still have three clones left to go. They can withstand just about anything they’re really fun to grow. these are pretty quick Nothing bad happened Very good
11/13 all the clones are doing great. These will be ready in a couple of weeks. I have three more that I flipped to flower and I’m running them at 76 was the three plants it was an accident but they seem to be responding just fine at that so I’m gonna try and maybe not have the lights up so high bleached out the leaves on my other plants these lights are incredibly bright, and I I run them to high of wattage but I love these they’re the best I’ve ever had
11/15 Wednesday I took some samples from blackjack I think earlier in the week and I had them in the jar and I took some pictures of them. The resin is incredible. I’ve never had results like this. This is really nice. I gave her water today with light nutrients, and about 3 1/2 mL of the Boombastic only half a gallon each
I’m smoking a sample that I took off and put in a jar and dried and wow it’s so pretty see all the resin I took pictures and the video of that pretty good
11/18 Saturday the tops are beginning to be so heavy. They’re falling over and I can’t keep them standing up. It’s the most frustrating but the best problem to have really good stuff.
11/19 I had a lot of trouble standing them up yesterday I stand one up another one would fall down. I felt like they were playing a practical joke on me. I look like the three fucking stooges doing it. I was so pissed off. It must’ve been hilarious. They’re doing really good today. Nobody’s falling down, I don’t know how much longer I can keep them growing but wow they’re really something I have three other clones that just switched over to flower and I have three of them that are still in veg so I’m gonna have these for quite a long time
I’m probably gonna take clones off of clones off of clones it’s hard to let go when you’ve grown the same plant this long they grow a little taller than I’d like but I have a really nice smoke.
It doesn’t make me too hungry. It’s good for nausea but I can still function around the house and get everything done. I have to fast a lot so I don’t get sick and this helps that even though I’m hungry it helps with the discomfort of not being able to eat.
I gave early flower nutrients to the three blackjacks in early flower. I just flipped them this week I added a half a milliliter of the Bloombastic just to get her used to it. I went pretty light on the nutrients I introduced the nectar from General hydroponics a sweetener I put that in there I used 5 mL of that, it said to use 10 no way
11/20 I did quite a bit of feeding last week and her top is getting very heavy. I’m having trouble keeping them standing up. I was going to take down one branch but I think it would cause the other branches to fall so I’m just gonna try and keep balancing them maybe for another week then I’m gonna cut them down.
I have three more and another tent. I’m flowering them at between 86 and 90 W with the Mars Hydro lighting seems to do the trick I’ve had the same plant growing I think for over a year now I keep taking clones and then I take another clone. This is the first time I’ve attempted to do that and now I can see. I’m glad that I did because I made up for seeds that I managed to kill along the way. I always blame the seed company and then I find out a year later that it was something I did so I try not to complain too much about that.
11/21 I took down one of the branches yesterday she was giving me trouble. I sent a message to the other ones. I think it helped they really starting to produce now. They’re really starting to fill in now. I could take them down but I want to keep them going maybe two weeks as long as you’re still bulking up I want to keep going and I have one branch that will probably dry down to, a little more than half an ounce. It’s not really big, but it’s pretty nice and considering these were just clones these are branches. If you look early in my other diary, they work great.
They’re looking a little crispy from a little too much nutrient I’m gonna give them just some plain water tomorrow and start backing way off on all nutrients. I think they have about another two weeks to go maximum. They’re really filling in nicely if I don’t stress them out they fill-in really good. Should probably get at least a dry ounce off of each of these branches.
11/22/23 I dried one of the branches didn’t get a lot. It’s very nice densely packed. Smells good it’s enough for me.
11/25 Saturday morning. I took a branch this morning. I have two on one plant and three on the other still going. I’ll keep them going if I can if they’re still growing I turned the light down to 89 I don’t really benefit from light that’s too bright toward the end of the grow it just melts the resin it just is not good for them and they seem to go just fine.
I have another blackjack clone in another tent that I am going to try and do the whole grow at 93 W with this light so far it’s going just great. I accidentally left it there and if I can do that and not stress it, I might get better plants at lower wattage.
11/26 these three blackjack clones are growing perfectly at 93 W. I can’t believe it. No sign of stress of any kind so I’m gonna keep it at this wattage. Also it keeps the temperature super low. I have the driver outside the tent so it doesn’t make that much difference and one of the pots I didn’t fill up with quite as much soil probably 2 gallons and they still are doing good so blackjacks are very fun to experiment with and it’s a great smoke I have one of the branches drying right now and she seems to get more resins as she’s drying it’s incredible.
I have two that are flowering that are just about ready. I overdid the fertilizer so I’m going to do a clean today with the general hydroponics. I got a gallon of the flora clean. I’m going to leave them at 89 W for the rest of the grow that should be good enough. It’s great that I can do this at 89 W.
I use the general hydroponics Flora, clean and watered both of them. I did 10 mL per gallon and I did about a gallon and a half. There was a lot of runoff. It was really gross. I have bugs in the soil. I sprayed the bag and the soil for bugs.
11/27 I used general hydroponics flora clean but it’s called something else now I bought a gallon of it because I overdid it during the last week. I always make that mistake at the end.
I did a flora clean rinse and that’s all I’m gonna do from here on out with the two that are going into flower. I also have three more that are just turning to flower and three more and veg so I might harvest out this diary and start another one but these blackjacks I can’t believe I’ve got eight plants off of one that I took clones from and then clone from another clone and they’re all great
The ones in flower are ready now but I want to give them a rinse get some of the chlorophyll out and I like to trim them while they’re still up but they’re so top-heavy they may not make it up. Wow they they’re going good.
FLAVOR WOW...BLOOMBASTIC WORKS!!!!!!!!!!! I had some using this stuff and it's complety different, it's so good. I finally got some cured for a week just great
11/29 I did the flora clean. I took a picture of it. I mixed up less than a gallon of water put in the left 10 mL per gallon. I’m just gonna run them out and see if I can get them to ripen up a little more I’ve never used floor clean so this thought would be nice. It has also sugar in it so it should also help with the flavor.
11/30 all the plants are dry so I did a watering light nutrients all the supplements all three of them got a gallon. I didn’t fill the pots up as far with dirt this time I didn’t think it would be necessary. I just have to water them more now.
For my new spider farmer tent I redid the air ducting today.
The USB desk fans that are really inexpensive less than 10 work great to help pull in the filtered air.
I buy Merv 13 material, cut it in rectangles and roll it up put a rubber band so its a cone shape into the ducting so I have filtered air on both sides coming into the tent,
I’m surprised how good they work. The only downside is when there’s a power disruption or anything in those fans go off you have to go set them back manually they don’t come back on, they’re five or eight each and so they’re replaceable all the other fans are 50 and 60. There’s no way I’m doing that.
12/4 Monday. This blackjack has turned into a perpetual grow. I always wanted to do that and I did it accidentally.
I have got I think nine plants from one plant that didn’t do real well in the beginning and all of the clones from this F1 are equally as strong as the main plant even better some of them and I didn’t even do the cloning right. I’m smoking some right now. It’s pretty nice pretty incredible strain. I’ve never had this luck.
12/5 I took a branch off today and trimmed it up. It’ll probably dry down to a half an ounce. It’s very dense and I keep smoking it only a few days after it’s dried so I don’t know what it’s like cured but it’s just perfect for me for daytime.
12/10 I have been using very light nutrients and light supplements and she’s doing good. I did some defoliation yesterday took off a lot of the spindle branches quite a few of them and then today the remaining ones really started to fill in. I end up with about a quarter ounce of dried usable weed off each of the branches when they’re done. I have three more blackjacks still vegging.
Things are really good. I’ve had the same plant going for about a year now taking clones.
12/11 Monday the three clones I have going here are doing really well. I’m using very light nutrients and I never raise the light over 93.3 W. I’m gonna keep this one at low nutrients and low light to see what kind of difference I get the other two blackjacks that I harvested gave me about an ounce per plant off each one after they dried, it’s been a very good experiment with the cloning
12/12 I gave them all a little bit of plain water today, and I also sprayed them down with the water silica mix. I’m trying to go very light on the nutrients and I’m keeping the lights at a low wattage just to see how they perform without me trying to push them.
12/16 gave all three of them water today with nutrients and supplements. Still keeping them at 93 watts and pretty light on the nutrients. They are doing just fine.
12/18 this low watch grow has been very nice. It’s still at 93 W. I just did plain water with silica today. The pH was 6.3. It’s nice to see how they will go when you just wanna do it a nice slow grow without being intense or using a lot of nutrients or lights,
I think I started this blackjack and May 2023 I’ve got three harvest and nine clones. I’m sure I could take some more but I want to grow some different ones these are nice they’re not the heaviest producers and I don’t know but they’re they’re really really good.
12/25/23 merry Christmas. These clones are doing great they’ll be probably ready to harvest inside of two weeks. I’m not gonna keep them going that much longer. I’ve just been an experiment with doing a clone and then using the lightest possible supplements to see what kind of results I get the branches are all really spindly because of how I cloned them kind of improperly and I didn’t veg them out strong enough so but anyway, I should probably at least get an ounce from these three which is kind of a waste I guess. I still have three more clones of blackjack to grow out. I’ve gotten about nine plants from the one that I germinated earlier this year. It’s pretty cool.
1/24/24 I have 3 more clones growing from this plant I started about a year ago. Keeping several small plants in veg is nice back up when something goes wrong with other plants. I'll be growing my last 3 out in 1 gallon containers because I didn't take the clones right so they have grown out with only 1 or 2 viable colas, it's enough. I'll get an oz or less.
3/9/24 👨🌾 I still have three clones growing in 1 gallon pots with a space panda. They are turning out great because I’m only using general hydroponics. I don’t use any other additives that are from different companies that ruined everything. These are great they smell like gum. I take clones off of these two and just keep them going. I can’t believe how easy it is to take cuttings off of these even if they’re from other cuttings, they still work great👍👍👍
3/12/24 👍 I took some little samples today. They grow a fantastic and the 1 gallons. I just got a little bit. It’s nice.🎄
3/26/24 I can’t believe I kept these going so long. I’m so glad I took a branch and put it in a 1 gallon really save me. It’s nice to have a little bit to takeoff after a while. I don’t care very much but I keep them going so it’s pretty nice. 👍👍👍
