All nutrient measurements are in grams per gallon, unless specified. Cuts taken from mother of winning pheno of Blue Cheese and Super Lemon Haze, plus a cut of GG4 claimed to be from the original High Times award winning plant. Trimmed, coated in clonex gel, stuck in q-plugs (rapid rooter, brown sponge) soaked in 1.5EC of Jacks normal veg rate, and allowed to sit in a humidity dome a tent with 24h light at 77 F for 7 days before additional water was needed. SLH rooted after 5-7 days, GG4 after 7-10 days, and Blue Cheese only showing 50% roots at 14 days.
Up pot into coco coir hydrated with Jacks 321 at 2.2EC. Plants were placed in to 2 gallon coco coir bags at field capacity and were allowed a hard dryback to set the root zone. Nothing needed watered until day 7.
Day 4-5 I started noticing some calcium deficiency in the GG4 and SLH, so I treated with a foliar spray of Calimagic at 4mL/gallon.
Rehydrated bags day 7 with Jacks 321 at 2.4 EC + 5ml/gallon Calimagic+ 0.35mL/L RapidStart to help correct low CEC in coco and increase root density quickly. The label claimed the coco was pre buffered, I should have buffered it myself anyways.
Humidity lowered to 62-65%, aiming at 0.9-1.1 kPa VPD
Trellis net installed pre-empitively
Installed an Irrometer Tensiometer on day 13 in GG4 to monitor moisture level, nothing needed watered again after rehydrating until day 14
Started irrigation day 14, 225ml every 15 minutes for 3 hours to get heavy runoff and keep substrate media EC low, aiming for 25% dryback or less
Topped all plants on day 16, skirted/lollipoped and deleafed in prep for flower on day 19
Flipped day 21
Switched irrigation to generative, aiming for 40% drybacks or about -20kpa on the tensiometer.
1 hour additional dryback at lights on, 300ml every 15 minutes for 2 hours starting at hour 2 to limit runoff, then 300 ml at hour 5, 7, and 9 to maintain saturation through the day.
Runoff EC at day 7 4.95
Humidity raised becuase the plants are outpacing my dehumidifier, I plan on upgrading soon from a 50 to an 80 pint or larger if I can. Until then, cold air is being brought in to maintain humidity at the sake of temperature
Removed some additional lower branches from SLH at day 7
