Excited to be starting this diary 😻!
I’ve wanted to grow some Compound Genetics for quite some time, seen a lot of good things and they’ve been recommended by a few growers.
The site I use to purchase seeds from didn’t really have much of a selection, but they restocked a week or so ago and released some new Compound Strains. I’ve got enough seeds to last a life time, but I couldn’t pass up this opportunity 😅🤷♂️
Anyway here we are, I purchased a pack of their Exotic2, this particular strain doesn’t show up on their grow diaries list of strains, I’m assuming, because it’s new.
The genetics for this strain are -
Red Pop x Apples & Bananas
I’ve seen a couple of really nice crops of Apples & Bananas and that Red Pop is on the list of strains I’ve wanted for a while.
I’m glad I did purchase a pack as they sold out the same day.
I planted three seeds into a small amount of coco and placed them in my heated propagator box, so far only one of the three has germinated. Il leave the other two as they might still pop, but I’ve planted an extra two in case they don’t.
It’s still early days.
I plan on giving them dechlorinated tap water for the first week or so.
Hoping to find a new mother 🤞
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, I’m fairly disappointed that only 1/5 seeds that I planted have germinated. Not had issues like this for a while with a packet of seeds, can only assume I got a dud pack.
I’m leaving the two extra seeds I planted for now, in hope that they decide to pop, but if nothings happened by Friday I’m digging them up. I’ll just have to be content with having only the one plant 😒
I’m continuing to give her dechlorinated tap water, she will start on a light nutrient feed next week.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, I repotted her into a 1 litre pot and started her on a light nutrient feed.
Still only got the one plant, the other seeds I planted haven’t showed any signs of germinating 😿
I’ve raised all the plants so they’re a bit closer to the light.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, she appears to be the most vigorous out of all the photoperiod strains I’m running, still sad only one germinated, but at least it’s a strong one 💪🌱.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week, I’m watering every 4-5 days.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl.
I’ve repotted her into a 1 gallon pot, I noticed a good amount of roots underneath so thought it was time for an upgrade.
I’ve tied her to a support as she looked like she was going to topple over at one point.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, I decided to top her and keep the top as a clone.
The Clone is three days old now and appears to be doing fine.
The main plant has started to branch out now, il probably top her again in the next week or so.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, I’ve seen a good amount of growth since the last update.
She recovered from the first round so I topped her again. I also decided to top the two lower branches and I’ve removed a couple of leaves.
I’ve increased the amount of A+B nutrients up to 2ml/ltr and slightly increased the calmag.
In a couple of weeks time when she’s a bit bigger il start some training.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl, she’s grown a fair bit since the last update.
That’s it now, I’ve got 8 decent tops. All that’s left to do is continue training her and removing any branches that start to form.
The Clone I took a few weeks ago had a decent amount of roots after ten days.
I repotted her into a 1ltr pot, she appears to be doing well.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl.
She’s been an absolute pleasure to grow all the way through veg.
She responds well and recovers fast from any training I’ve given her.
She grows a lot more vigorously than the others in the tent.
Fingers crossed she ticks all the boxes when it comes to flowering 🤞.
I’ve started leaving some of the new shoots to grow on the main branches.
il take a lot of these as clones a week or so before changing the light cycle to 12/12.
I’m keeping her on a light nutrient feed until the light cycle changes to 12/12.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this girl.
She’s a beast! Lost count of how many tops she has now 🤦♂️
I pulled her out of the tent this morning and removed any new branches that were beginning to form. I just want her to grow taller now, no more tops, just the ones she’s got.
I really wish I was doing a single plant scrog with this girl, she’d be an absolute dream to weave!
Maybe in the future 🤷♂️😸
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
Here we go!
I changed the light cycle to 12/12 on the 12/12.
All appears well with this lady, starting to see an increase in her growth rate and she’s having to be watered more frequently.
I’ve slightly increased her A+B nutrients, I’ve given her the new mix and she appears to be healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
A very Merry Christmas to all 🎄💚
All appears well with this lady.
She still appears to be stretching.
I’ve removed a couple of leaves that were overlapping and tucked the others.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🎄🌱💚
💚💚💚Happy New Year💚💚💚
All appears well with this lady.
I gave her a bit of a defoliation session a few days ago, she appears to have recovered and has pushed out some good growth since.
I love the structure of this plant, hoping to get some decent colas on each branch.
She’s already starting to produce trichomes and she’s giving off a lovely Sweet Candy Berry scent.
I’ve increased her A+B nutrients up to 2ml/ltr, she will continue on this feed for the next few weeks.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this lady.
Not a lot to report.
She’s continuing on the same nutrient feed as last week and appears healthy.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this lady.
Her buds are continuing to develop at a good rate and she’s already extremely sticky to the touch.
She smells absolutely wild! Exactly like Strawberry Starburst, it’s really pungent!
She’s definitely going to be staying around for another run.
I’ve started giving her some PK boost, this will only be for a week or so. Then back on a base nutrient feed.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this lady.
She’s by far the smelliest of all the plants in this tent!
She reeks of artificial Strawberries, it’s that pungent it’s almost offensive!
Her buds still appear to be developing, she’s got that look like her buds won’t be growing very uniform, maybe some foxtailing due to genetics, but it all good.
I quite like it when the buds grow like spiky grenades 😸
I’ve got a feeling this plant will probably need 10 weeks+ to finish fully, but we’ll see.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this lady.
Her buds are starting to swell and the smells coming off her are phenomenal!
This will be her last week of nutrients, then I plan on giving her a two week flush.
I’ll be lowering the strength of her nutrient mix over the course of the week. Il probably just feed her the same as what the little ones get in the veg tent.
Not long left now, I’ve added a few extra pictures of the clones I took weeks earlier. I’ve kept one as a mother and you’ll see she’s ready to give me a big wave of clones.
The other I’m in the process of topping and training for a run in the near future.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
All appears well with this Lady.
She’s at day 56 of flower and has stopped receiving nutrients.
She’s had her first flush feed this morning and will continue to flush for another two weeks.
Her buds are beginning to swell and she’s the first thing you smell when opening the tent! I’m thinking 70 days then down.
I’ll start checking her trichomes around day 63.
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚😸
All appears well with this Lady.
Starting to see some nice fade colours and her buds are continuing to swell.
Giving her a second week of flush, il be checking her trichomes in the next few days.
To be honest, I can almost see how cloudy some of them look without using a loop.
She smells incredible! I’ll leave it at that.
I’ve added a picture of the first clone I took 11 weeks ago. I intended to keep her as a mother plant, but I’ve got a second clone doing equally as good 🤷♂️.
I recently repotted her into a 7gal pot and tied her down again. Plan on flowering her in the next few weeks.
I will probably do a flower only diary for her so you’ll be seeing her again soon 🌱😸
Happy with how everything looks, until next time 🌱💚
What a journey this has been, but I can’t tell you how happy I am with the end result!
66 days of flower, now she’s down and done!
To say I planted 5 seeds in total and only 1 germinated you could say I was off to a bad start 🤦♂️ I thought so too.
I accepted the fact it was to be a solo run and what would be, would be 🤷♂️
From the get go I could tell she was a strong plant, she grew extremely vigorously throughout veg. She responded well to being topped and trained. Took a couple of clones early on and they rooted fast, to be honest she was ticking all the right boxes.
When she was flipped to flower, she stretched a reasonable 12” give or take.
She kept her shape and grew evenly.
Her buds started frosting up during the third week of flower and the smells coming off her at that point were unreal.
Throughout flower her buds didn’t feel particularly dense, but she was extremely resinous to the touch and smelt like strawberry starburst.
As the weeks have progressed her buds have swollen and are now extremely dense, she still smells like intense artificial strawberries, but now there’s another fruity twist in there that I can’t describe.
I took some pictures of her just prior to harvesting her.
She’s been cut into individual branches and is hanging in my drying tent.
I’d like to thank everyone who has had a look, liked or commented on this diary.
I’ve ended up purchasing a pack of Compound Genetics Animorph Mints, hoping to run these in the near future 😻
Happy with how this diary went, until next time 🌱💚😸
