Winter Grow 2024

....and we're off to the races. Its gonna be nice to watch 3 strains grow side by side, no topping, no training, and only 17 days of Veg 😁

Day 22 from seed and 7 days until switch to 12/12 lights. All pots have been soaked through with a gallon of plain water. Just wait and watch now. 😁

Feb 29, end of Week 4 and 1st leaves removed. Topped the Dragon's Dream as it came in triple noded with warped leaves but now looks like it's back on track. Switching to 12/12 lights today. It will be interesting to see the result but i'm hoping for a 3oz yield by Apr 1. 😁

3 plants, 3 strains and they are all different. The Green Crack has loved life since Day 1, looks great and is stretching fast. The Dragon's Dream started with triple nodes and abnormal leaves. Topped it and it's cleaned up real nice. Mid week the Slurricane was yellowing from the bottom up and bunching it's nodes. Added some nutes (I just guess/measure at this point) removed the sick leaves and now it's coming back gangbusters. 😁

The Green Crack stretched to 18 inches and all 3 plants have flowers showing, surprising how much they smell already. All 3 plants are a rich green, so happy they liked their first doses of vitamins 😁

The Green Crack is still stretching and running out of room. Looks like there will be a few nice flowers. Raised the other to plants up to catch the light. 😁

Cleared the lower branches on the Green Crack as they aren't seeing the light. All the flowers look like they are about a week behind, probably because of the cold nightly temperatures but they look promising. Pushed a gallon of 600ppm water through each plant. All is good except for the Slurricane that never caught after the first transplant. 😁

Well the Slurricane called it quits. I've seen it before, there was no hope. Both the Green Crack and Dragon's Dream are taking their time but looking good, just hoping they'll fill out. I've been letting them dry out completely before watering and put plain water through them last time.

Great representation of Sativa and Indica flowers. It's amazing the Dragon's Dream hasn't even started producing trichomes yet. These are going to be some high yield flowers 😁

The Green Crack flowers look long and lanky but on closer inspection are starting to gain some real substance. Trichome production is prolific and they look like they could go for a while yet. We'll see if the cold nights speed things along any. The Dragon's Dream in contrast has only just started to produce sugar. The flowers are so dense I'm considering firing one up for outdooors to see what it can do. Smell? Don't know, Covid's taken that away for the moment.

The Green Crack looks awesome and smells like fruit Loops. The Dragons Dream finally busrt forth with fattening calyx and trichome production. It smells like funky skunk and has flowers as dense as Humboldt's Black Dog. It doesn't look like either plant will be ready Apr 1 as planned/hoped. Wait and Watch. 😁

Week 9 of Flower and they both look like they could roll for another month easy, not even a sign of a cloudy trichome yet. The Green Crack flowers have huge calyx stacking up that smell real fruity. The Dragons Dream is finally blowing up with trichomes and smelling real stinky. 😁

Nine weeks of flower and trichomes are still clear with nary an amber. Stopped the nutes and keeping it cool at night. Dragon's Dream pistols are a fire bright orange. The Green Crack Top is 17 inches tall and quintessential sativa. It started out straggly but its filled out beautifully. I'll give em another week. 😁

Decided to keep them going another week but harvested some test flowers. The Green Crack has a strong floral smell and taste, the Dragon's Dream smells of skunky funk. Potent and tastes wonderful. this stuff won't last long. 😁

Long grow, small yield, Excellent quality 😁
