CalGonJim 1/12 I have always wanted to try these F1 seeds from RQS!!! They have a sale on some of their cookie strains and I just found out that the F ones are available in auto flower so I have three regular and one CBD I really like their website too. It looks like the old Gatecrasher albums
Iβm so excited I cannot wait to get this set up. Iβm going to use my spider farmer tents Iβm gonna do two plants in each of the 28β x 28inch tents. Will be using Mars Hydro TS 1000 light but Iβm not gonna run it at maximum.
I will have it at 100 around 100 W for heat purposes anything more than that in the small tent will damage the plants itβs counterproductive. I ordered my seeds and they shipped the next day I think and so theyβll be here in a few days. Iβm just so excited. πππ
1/16 2 pm iβm going to go to bed soon and then get up and check the mailbox. They mightβve already arrived.
Pretty exciting and I ordered some from fast buds website as well. I have 2 orders showing up soon. Itβll be π
I got into the hobby of collecting seeds, I think I have more than Iβll plant, but itβs fun to collect them and when I die they will hand them out to everybody I love β¦ well not them because theyβre deadβ¦(wasnβt it dramatic the way I threw that in there?) but Iβm sure somebody will find a use for them.
1/16 I got almost 4 hours of sleep and I checked the mailbox and they came so now Iβm gonna try and fill up the cups and plant them tonight. They got here so fast Iβm so excited. Thanks Royal Queen Seeds gonna be funπππ
1/17 thatβs almost 4 canβt pay attention so I havenβt started anything yet. Iβm not sure I can open up the packages are kind of complicated. I donβt wanna wreck it , the last time I tried to open my screwed it up so now for the next three hours, Iβll try and figure out how to open the packages, thatβs how good the last weed I grew was π
1/17 my entries are disappearing
1/18
1/21
1/28 testing every entry I make disappears Iβm going to plant one more hyperon F1 the other one germinated lived for about a day and then died and the other ones were just fine and the exact same set up.
2/2/24 the second hyperon seed failed as well.
CalGonJim 2/5
I turned the light up to 85 that should be more than enough for the next week
2/8 they are doing good after the transplant. I'll give them medium 10 part nutrients. the packages I got were impossible to open, and then I could not close them. I see some people got packages where the seeds were in individual bubbles not just in one large one with no way to close it. The look good but are a pain in the ass.

2/16 π raising the lights a couple of inches yesterday is what they needed doing very good today if I donβt put an emoji at the end of what Iβm saying it deletes it when I saveπ
2/18 Sunday theyβre looking very good. I turned the light up about 5 W to 90 I think Iβll probably leave it there. Maybe Iβll top out at 97 after they flower weβll see how they handle. I added this new great white and it is phenomenal.π

CalGonJim 2/19 Monday π
2/21 Wednesday nutrients light feed
They are growing in a way that I have never seen. They almost dont need much training, its doing it on its own, pretty cool. I will bend some branches back for air but I think ill just do as little as possible. The internodal spacing is great so is the amount of stretch from the bottom 2 sets of branches rising up to the level of the main cola for an even light canopy without messing with it. π
2/25 Sunday I did a light feed with all the supplements theyβre really looking good I didnβt use much water. I split up 1 gallon between three of them. I have not done ANY training on these. They are short and are growing pretty good without me have to do a thing, this is nice. π¨βπΎ
CalGonJim 3/4π Iβm kind of torn this morning on whether I should just do the three-part feeding or the full 10 part I see a little bit of leaf tip burn and I donβt wanna overdo it. I donβt know.
Ended up doing the light feed all the supplements and the great white. That seems to do a really great job.π
These are growing better than any auto flower Iβve seen they are completely different. Theyβre very solid theyβre growing huge much better than anything Iβve ever seen. These are quite different. I donβt have to touch them and now theyβre starting to produce big buds and a lot of resin.πππ
3/5 π I now see the value of these F1 hybrids. They grow uniformly and perfectly without touching them. They are really incredible. Iβm growing four plants from fast buds in the next tent, and they are great but they grow completely different. The ones are completely uniform. Itβs really spectacular to witness these plants grow. πππ
3/6ππΈ I gave them all quite a bit of water today and I changed out the plant trays after about 10% runoff and a spray neem oil in the plant tray before I put the plant in it. Theyβre looking great very consistent.ππΈ
3/7ππππΈ
3/9 π they are growing very perfect and symmetrical. I gave them water today a gallon between the three of them. Theyβre doing great. Thereβs really nothing for me to do just water them.π

CalGonJim 3/11 ππ¦Monday they look and smell amazing. The smell is really coming out. I couldnβt believe it. Itβs just like gum. Itβs very sweet and very pleasant. I gave them water today just water.
3/12π¨βπΎ
3/13 ππ¦π¦ I did water again just water & 2ml silica in a gallon. Next time I will do nutrients. I always overdo it towards the end so Iβm trying to be very light on the nutrients this time. I always screw up the last month.π
3/14 πthey are getting lighter in color but not too light. I moved the grow light up a couple of inches and Iβm gonna keep it at about 12 inches for the rest of the grow. Itβs running at about 92 W oh no 96 on this one, thatβs probably a little high but theyβre absolutely perfect and uniform. I just donβt wanna screw it up so next time Iβll do a watering with the light feed schedule probably even later today or tomorrow. πππ
3/15 ππΈππ¦π¦π¦ I did a full watering with nutrients and supplements. I sprayed neem oil on the bag and on the soil before I watered. I moved the light up to about 18 inches away from the top of the plant. I kept it at the same wattage. I shouldnβt have to move anymore for the rest of the grow. Gonna take her three more weeks maybe 4.
3/16 I just found maple syrup cone filters that might work as air intake filters on my robot arm 4 in ducting. Not sure of the size. could use them as a template and make my own from MERV 13 material. Also other filter options:
Replacements for Dirt Devil F2,
4 Pack Filter Replacements For Dyson DC41
doing copy and paste so I can find them again
3/17πππ incredible amounts of resin are forming on all of the plants now. They smell better than any plants Iβve ever grown. I can see the value in theserr. They are consistent and since Iβm not overdoing the fertilizer, they seem to be doing great. I have never had better luck so Iβm really hoping I donβt screw it up from here on out.

CalGonJim 3/18ππππππ I did water and silica yesterday. They are looking good today. I am probably going to take the light from 96 or 97 W where itβs at now down to 93 or 92 just a couple of watts lowers the temperature considerably and I think theyβre doing, pretty good. I donβt like to get them too overcooked or the end of the thatβs a mistake I make so I hope reducing the light doesnβt stress them.π¨βπΎ
β³I turned the light down to 91 W and the plants are responding perfectly. They are fading to a perfect gold and they smell great. These are absolutely perfect plants. Iβm going to start three more. I will probably put 2 gallons of dirt in a 3 gallon pot like I did this time , theyβre just beyond amazing ππΈπ½π
π‘π‘π‘ the mars Hydro lights are the best thing that has ever happened to me since I started growing. They have the best lights I can control the temperature. Theyβre low wattage are incredibly powerful. I can do four plants less than 95 W. Itβs just amazing.π‘π‘π‘
3/19ππΈ
3/20 I took a small bud from each one,, im drying them now and will smoke them in the morning
3/21 π¦π¦π¦ Full watering supplements, nutrients morning
WOW... I almost never taste the weed, I never dry it long enough, BUT WOW, I just had some Apollo, I little dried over night and it smells better than any thing I have ever tried. All three have STROMG smell and taste. The absolute best..... I have old man taste and smell. so not so good but I can tell a huge difference. all are amazing. I am totally blown away.πππππ
ππΈ I usually talk into my phone and put an emoji in front and back.....this fucking thing deleted everything I just put in....you lost a great review. fix this fucking thing.
I ππdid a watering today with full nutrients and supplements got some runoff. Theyβre looking fantastic. Itβs just perfect. I used ripen for the first time 4 mL. I hope it doesnβt burn the plants every other product that Iβve ever used during the ripen phase just completely burn the plants. π¦π¦π¦
3/22 Smoking some Orion only dried for 2 days. Unlike anything I have ever tasted or smoked. Same trichome density as a photo Space Panda growing in the next tent. Very sweet and even with the chlorophyll still pretty nice. Im going to do this same grow again and see if I can get the same results.
No burns from using Ripen at 4mL. Next will be plain water in 2 days then last week of nutrients then a week of flush. These have been the most stable strong hands off plants ive worked with. No problems with nutrients, I wouldn't do anything to stress them, they don't want to be messed with. Just like a high end touring car.

3/30 smoking Cosmos right now...WOW. I have NEVER tasted or smelled anything like this. The Cosmos smells like super strong desil at first. The 3 plants in the tent have the most beautiful smell I can not describe it. These are just in a class of their own. If Fastbuds plants are like a Lamborghini these RSQ F1βs are like Roles Royce. Colors just out of this world ππΈππ
3/31ππππ¬οΈ I took a couple of sample branches and dried them for just a couple of days just incredibleβοΈβοΈβοΈ
π I turned the light from 94 to 89 W. Iβm gonna leave it there for the last week of the grow tomorrow will be doing flush and then after that will be harvest. These are the best plants Iβve ever grown. These are phenomenal beyond anything I could even think of there in their own category. πππππ

4/3 Turned light to 80w & π¦ almost 7 gallons flush got EC to 360 for the last weekπ¦πΈπ
4/4 FloraKleen is amazing. After 10 ml per gallon between 3 plants, let it sit for a few minutes. Then after a couple of gallons of plain water after that it completely rinsed out all of the nutrients. I never had anything that worked that good before. PPM or ec baseline tap water is 295. It was 360 after FloraKleen and 2 gal of Ph 6.6 water.
4/5 took some samples ππππ

CalGonJim 4/8/24 ππππππ these are the most incredible plants Iβve ever seen. Apollo is so thick and dense. It is indistinguishable from a photo. Cosmos CBD smells like a heavy old-school Kush diesel incredibly strong. Orion smells sweet like candy. Apollo is I canβt even describe the scent. Itβs just the most amazing thing Iβve ever experienced. I had trouble with one of the seeds not germinating. I killed like three F1 seeds when I started my grow, but wow, no one is good enough to grow these πππππππ
π iβm gonna let them dry out and I noticed that they were getting a little dry around the tips so I turned down the light to 70W. Sheβll stay that way until theyβre dried out a little bit more and then Iβll cut them down and put them in the little small drying tent that fits on top of my 27 inch spider farmer tent really nice. ππ
4/10 πππππππ
4/10/24 Apollo F1is the most fragrant so far the tightest most thick dense buds Iβve ever grown. These are in a special class all their own. These are very different. They are easier to grow. They donβt need maintenance. I didnβt do anything to them this time. I will next time I just wanted to see and, these really are beyond anything Iβve ever experienced the smell the way they grow the way they look itβs all perfect and first class.
4/17/24 ive been vaping Apollo at 365 in my Arizer X2 and I am blown away. The aftertaste is like fresh mint. I haven't spent much time with Orion yet, the CBD is very strong smelling and works great.

CalGonJim Apollo smells just beautiful. Itβs stronger than any thing Iβve ever grown cosmos and Orion are also perfect. All three of the different strains have the same uniform height and they are the strongest & nice smelling perfect plants. I just canβt believe how amazing they are. πππππ
Orion was perfect just like the other two no problems at all she was just as uniform the same size as the other strains very the best to grow. I canβt wait to do another one.

CalGonJim 4/10/24 this is a great experience. I canβt wait to grow another one very dense trichomes very dense bud absolutely perfect and as I mentioned, I donβt know if you see this in the others, but these are really in a class. Iβll buy themselves really spectacular.
I just finished three of the RQS F1s, Hyperion. Big yields and I prefer the smoke to their Milky way and Epsilon F1s. Medusa was big too, though I was less experienced back then and quite possibly I did her buds a disservice with rushed drying and the like.
