First Time Grow / GMO Cookies

Germination complete success - removed the humidity domes (solo cups) after 3 days and all seeds had sprouted For the week, watering was largely intuitive and measurements varied albeit slightly - watered almost every other day + light misting on mulch/cover crop (Note: my soil had already been brought to field capacity before initial sowing) In current need of fans, humidifier and a hygro-thermometer

Photo/video documentation between the end of week 1 through week 2 was accidentally deleted - big apologies. Notes show positive and healthy growth - GMO 2 & 3 showing signs of robustness, meanwhile GMO 4 showing signs of being "a runt" Watering rootwise/yucca/big 6 once a week, rest of the waterings are strictly water-only IPM consists of 2oz per gal EM5 solution foliar spray + applied directly to mulch/cover crop (before lights-out) - once a week Lamp Brightness: 50% @ 26.2" - estimated 400 PAR

Beginning of week 3 - pots are top-dressed consisting of living mulch(cover crop), worm castings, gypsum, and lobster compost Top-dress is covered with 12 seed cover crop, mulched w/ barley straw + em bokashi Included amino acids (16-0-0) to once-a-week feeding schedule - day after feeding, soil is given a sst derived from sprouted organic fenugreek, lentils, kamut, mung, and adzuki beans (Note: ALL inputs and soil from start have been certified organic and/or OMRI certified) Lamp Brightness: 75% @ 26.2" - estimated 560 PAR GMO 3 showing great vigor and GMO 4 declared the runt but rebounding well Feeding schedule once-a-week, all other waterings strictly water-only IPM 2oz per gal EM5 solution foliar spray + applied directly to mulch/cover crop (before lights-out) - once a week

Lamp Brightness: 100% @ 16" - estimated 914 PAR (GMO 3 tallest of group so measurement for lighting taken from top of this plant) Feeding schedule once-a-week, all other waterings strictly water-only Dropped the rootwise mycrobe complete for feedings and have now incorporated bas buildabloom @ 1/2 tsp per gallon Day after feeding, soil is given a sst of organic fenugreek, lentils, kamut, mung, and adzuki beans IPM 1oz per gal EM5 solution foliar spray + applied directly to mulch/cover crop (before lights-out) - once a week first week the scrog has been used on GMO 3, 2, & 4 - GMO 1 short but robust stem rub notes: GMO 1 & 3, strong / GMO 2 & 4, mild by end of week GMO 4 exhibited itself as male and removed

Lamp Brightness: 100% @ 12" - estimated 1000 PAR (GMO 2 tallest plant so top of this is used for 12" light distancing) Feeding schedule, waterings, and IPM all same from previous week note: light defoliation + moving branches around scrog for better light penetration all pots had more em bokashi raked into the cover crop/mulch increasing bud sites on GMO 1 + 3, and GMO 2 overwatered this week GMO 1 sticky to the touch like sap/pure gas + maybe burnt rubber GMO 2 mild/middle of the road/faint gas/sweet GMO 3 citrus-sweet floral/gas + oily/greasy touch

Lamp Brightness: 100% @ 16" - estimated 914 PAR (top of GMO 2/back left) Waterings only, daily crop steering - reduced water temp + introduced dry down period IPM once-a-week visual inspection - no foliar applications notes: GMO 1 side branches supported w/ more twine + also showing signs of senescence, darkening buds GMO 2 + 3 fading on upper leaves/branches contemplating harvest next week, trichomes check out great continuing to ripen

Lamp Brightness: 100% @ 16" - estimated 914 PAR (top of GMO 2/back left) Waterings only, daily crop steering - reduced water temp + dry down periods IPM once-a-week visual inspection - no foliar applications notes: harvest likely next week (after 12 weeks flowering) trichome check - showing little signs of amber looks like they could go longer but another week I feel is sufficient smell has largely stayed the same for a few weeks if anything just more complexities

Harvested at week 17 and hung whole plants to dry, no wet trimming. Tent humidity was set to 60% and the average temperature fluctuated between 65-70 degrees. Four usb fans and a levoit mini air purifier were added to help circulate air. Herb was dried for 15 days and larger leaves trimmed during day 7 of the process. Bucked and dry trimmed in air purified lung room, which was then kept at 60% RH to preserve moisture content and help maintain terpenes. Trim and larf was not weighed. But weight per individual plant is as follows. GMO 1 - 3.98 oz GMO 2 - 3.95 oz GMO 3 - 4.75 oz Total - 12.68 oz of head stash and smalls Also ended up with 2 grams of scissor hash Jarred up per genotype and labeled - burped jars couple times a day for about a week.
