Pigzmickey Seed was scuffed & dunked (3hrs). Jiffy puck, propagator & heat mat @ 25˙/ 85-95% RH & light @ 24/0. No nutes, only pH'd water. Broke surface in 3 days... Day 7, started to "harden-off" by opening the propagator for several hours per day & added 50% nutes.

Pigzmickey The hardest part of the entire grow cycle for me... just leaving her alone. 😉 I use pH'd water (condensate captured from an A/C), occasionally adding a little CalMag & half the recommended nutes, that's it! I created my own "air-pots" with a soldering iron (less damage than drilling), plus a run-off capture container, so I can measure & test run off... Mars Hydro SP3000 @ 25% 👌

Pigzmickey Week 6, she's needing a defoliation... Still using pH'd water (condensate captured from an A/C), occasionally adding a little CalMag & just over half the recommended nutes. Aiming for approx 10 - 20% run-off so I can measure & test... Mars Hydro SP3000 has steadily increased to 75% @ 18" 👌

Pigzmickey Week 8, she's been defoliated & LST... Still using pH'd water (condensate captured from an A/C), bi-daily adding a little CalMag & about 75% of the recommended nutes. Aiming for approx 10 - 20% run-off so I can measure & test... Mars Hydro SP3000 has steadily increased to 85% @ 18" & I've started the "flip" process by altering to 14/10 👌 She's growing approx 25mm per day!

Pigzmickey The SP3000 has now been steadily increased to 100% @18", I now start lowering the distance gradually to 12". Still using low EC water (condensate captured from the de-humid unit). I've noticed the daily growth rate has lowered from 25mm day to approx 10mm per day, but the buds are forming nicely. She's still very thirsty, but that is starting to drop...

Pigzmickey Week 11 & the trichomes are starting to cloud, predominantly on the upper buds. I thought I had another 4 weeks to go, now I'm not so sure... 😉

Pigzmickey Starting week 12: Very slow growth, may be 10mm - 20mm per week. Buds are forming nicely & aroma has increased considerably. Still very hungry, struggling to get run-off from 1.5l twice daily. Trichomes are continuing to cloud...

Pigzmickey Most of the trichomes are cloudy with some starting to turn amber, I guess this is when the THC starts degrading & creating CBN. So, in theory, she's at her most potent? I'll flush her on the weekend, and next week I'll harvest... Stinky work! 😷

Pigzmickey Most of the trichomes are cloudy with lots that are amber. I've denied her nutes, plus flushed her twice this week. First run-off was about 980ppm, the 2nd was 190ppm (using 0ppm pH'd water). I'll deny her water for 2 days & harvest this weekend... Gonna be stinky/sticky work! 😷
