Picked up 3 clones from a dispensary. 1'' rockwool cubes with roots barely showing. Health was mediocre at best with some yellowing. Started with a low VPD to nurse them back into health. Originally started this grow with my tried and trusty GroPlanner 150w. Previously I ran 2gal pots in a 2'x2' tent. Trying out 3gal this time.
Soil is 2 parts FFOF : 1 part perlite
Topped with 1" Play Sand and landscape fabric to prevent gnats
Plants took over a week to display any visible growth. They're finally growing and greening up. Slowly raising VPD and light levels. Gave them a light feed and did some LST. This is the last week under the GroPlanner. After a couple issues I don't trust the digital dimmer.
Plants are finally taking off!
It's been a little over a week under the new lights. (2) Viparspectra XS 1500 dimmed to 50% ~10'' from plant height.
Raised the VPD to ~1.0kPa and the PAR to 600umol
Fed them a lightly. The Terp Tea is for the microbes.
It's going to be a battle between the 2 taller Ghost Vapor OG and God's Breath vs the short and squat Wedding Cake x Gelato #33. It didn't really respond well to tying or topping. I have foam blocks to raise it if the height disparity becomes too much.
Went hard on the ladies this week. Testing out how much PAR they can take. The God's Breath and Ghost Vapor OG start showing stress ~750 umol. Backed off to ~700 umol and everyone seems happy. Performed defoliation, took off bottom growth and added a screen a few days later. Tomorrow we start flower.
VPD is up to 1.1-1.2kpa
First week of flower. A lot of tucking and training through the screen. Ladies are looking good and happy with 700-725ppfd light levels. Lots of white pistils and the start of pre-flowers.
Oscillating fan takes up some space in the 2x3 tent. Can't put it above the lights so it blocks the light in the front left corner :-(
Starting to form nice little buds. Keeping light levels around 725umol. Will start pushing higher levels this week. Vpd is around 1.0-1.2kpa lights on. 0.4-0.6kpa lights off even with a Dehumidifier. Will have to figure out how to lower humidity for later in flower. Maybe a mini Space heater? Ambient humidity is 50-80% at night here.
Ghost Vapor OG is getting a little hungry. She has a lot of bud sites. Drinking more than the other 2.
God's Breath is a bit lanky and isn't filling in as I'd hoped. Hoping for potency and flavor.
Wedding Cake x Gelato #33 is a nice sturdy and compact plant. She's handling more light than the other 2. Isn't picky with watering or nutes. Thickest branches, greenest foliage and largest bud sites of the 3. I'm regretting not taking a clone of this one.
Really happy for only 21 days into flip. Nice dime+ size nugs on the wedding Cake x Gelato #33 and ghost Vapor OG. GVOG is a healthier green after feeding. Gods breath looks very unique. Less developed buds with amber/yellow pistils and trichomes. I can tell it will take longer and it grows like some of the more potent OGs I've grown. Crossing my fingers.
Vpd is up around 1.1kpa during the day and light levels are 750-800umol. Will start upping the feed strength this week. Stay tuned...
Turned one of the lights up to 100%. Going to see if the ghost Vapor og can take ~1000ppfd. Ladies are frosting up and the smell is gas from all 3. VPD is ~1.2-1.3kpa
Lights are both at 100% pushing around 1000ppfd at the canopy. Ghost Vapor OG and God's Breath look like they'll be done in 1-2weeks. Wedding Cake x Gelato 33 looks like it'll take a week longer.
Gave them one last feed. Smell is extremely strong. Lots of resin.
Flushing!
Ghost Vapor OG is going to be ready at 8 weeks. Smell is very OG. Lowered the light levels for this one as she finishes.
God's Breath and Wedding Cake x Gelato 33 are going to need another week or so.
All 3 smell of OG/gas and very frosty.
