Things are up and running. All seeds popped in 24 hours and were pushing up to the light a few days later. I am really excited for all these strains. The grow will be done in my custom cooler DWC setup.

After a week things are good in one cooler and not so good in one lol. The whole cooler thing is a bit perplexing. The conductions are the same in both coolers so I’m not too sure what the problem is. The only thing I can think of is that the ones that seem to be having an issue broke the surface a few days before the others and were stretching a bit too much so I lowered the light. So perhaps they got a little unhappy with that. Either way the new growth looks to be okay so I won’t mess with anything just yet. Sometimes it better to leave things alone versus trying to reinvent the wheel. We will see what the next week brings 🤞👍😎

Week 3 Things are going ok thus far. I ended up pulling the blueberry cookies and replacing it with a Black Apple Hitchcock. She was just growing way to slow for my liking. The Mimosa Orange Punch has still been struggling but it seems to finally be shaking its troubles. Although I popped a Velvet Moon so it might get replaced if it doesn’t get growing more quickly soon. So 🤞…. I am really happy with the Red Hot Cookies and the Lemon Orange. Both plants are humming along nicely. I will have to mainline them in order to slow them down so the other plants can catch up. I am excited to see what the next week brings.

Week 4 has seen plenty of growth. I did some mainlining to the Lemon Orange and the Red Hot Cookies. The Mimosa x Orange Punch was topped and I took off some lower growth. I will be aiming for 6 tops per plant. The Black Apple Hitchcock has its own Diary entry btw. I upped the nutrient solution this week to 240 ppm. The Mainlined plants are a little greener then I would like they they will grow out of it. Things are humming along nicely. I just need the small one to catch up lol.

Week 6 Things are chugging along nicely. The plants are really starting to take shape. The two mainlined plants are at 4 tops and will be topped again this week at some point. I will then take the 6 top layout I like and cut two away likely. Although I might leave the red hot cookies at 8 since there is more room on her side of the tent with the little one one her side. The Mimosa X Orange Punch is at 6 tops, the desired number, so it’s just a matter of training her to the layout I want. The little baby is likely not gonna catch up but we will see lol. It will likely be left to grow naturally. We will see what happens. Onward!! pH 6.0 240 ppm 68 F water temp 73 F tent temp 32% RH

Week 2 of flower The Red Hot Cookies and Lemon Orange are really stretching out. Glad I put them at the back of the tent. The Mimosa X Orange Punch is taking her time as far as flowering goes. The Black Apple Hitchcock (there is a separate diary for this plant) has been even slower transitioning into flower. But all in all the plants are happy so I am happy. 6.0 pH 500 ppm 65F water temp 71 tent temp 41 % RH

Week 3 of flower Things are humming along nicely. The Red Hot Cookies (back left), Lemon Orange (back right) have really stretched out and are really throwing out bud sites. The Mimosa X Orange Punch (front right) is really starting to get into flower now. Although I flipped to 12/12 3 weeks ago she seems like she is really only in week two of flower now. She seemed to take a while to transition. But all in all I am happy. See my other diary for the small plant (Black Apple Hitchcock front left) 5.9 pH 500 ppm 65 water temp 71 tent temp 39% RH

Week 4 of flower. 5.8-6.0 pH 450ppm 65-68 F water temp. 72 F tent temp So… the back two plants aren’t stacking like I had hoped. They may end up being popcorn queens. But they are nice and frosty so a long as they produce decent compact and frosty buds I’ll be happy. The front two are finally bursting into flower. The Mimosa X Orange Punch (front right) is looking good and it smells really unique already. I hope she stacks up some nice buds.
