Day 0: I started my winter scrog a couple of weeks earlier than planned. This run with be two Barney's Farm strains in each tent. I'm really excited to be growing these strains, they all look delicious! I will know in about 5 months!
Day 3: We have liftoff! 3/4 seeds popped!
Day 4: Sprouts are looking good, so far!
Day 5: Sprouts are hitting the top of the clear plastic cover, so I moved them into small cups with some soil with Great White powder (probably not needed since I am using Happy Frog soil for starting out) and put them in the tent to let the LED start working it's magic.
Day 6: I dug into the pellet to see if the seed was on it's way, but after a few more days, it doesn't seem to be doing anything, so I'm germinating a 4th seed. The plastic domes over the sprouts are keeping them nice and moist. I should be able to remove them in a few days.
Day 7: so far, so good! Keeping the humidity dome on until tomorrow.
Day 8: removed the humidity dome and moistened the soil with cal mag foliar spray and turned on the oscillating fan.
Day 10: watered with URB foliar and cal-mag foliar spray.
Day 12: watered with URB foliar and cal-mag foliar spray.
Day 14: She's coming along nice and healthy now. Always a slow start, but when they take off, they really take off!
Day 16: Looking good and today I turned on the boost switch along with the Veg switch.
Day 17: This small cup is drying out quickly, so I have been giving small daily drinks. I will be transplanting to 1gal pots and lowering the lights soon.
Day 18: Lowered the light to 24" today and gave small drink of URB and cal-mag foliar spray.
Day 19: Gave two small drinks today and lowered the space heater temp. I have been refraining from actually soaking the soil and just wetting the top of the soil once a day and I believe this is helping prevent overwatering.
Day 20: I'm not liking the progress in these cups, so I will transplant tomorrow into 1gal fabric pots.
Day 21: Transplanted into 1gal fabric pots with Fox Farms Ocean Forest soil and watered 1qt with 30ml/gal of URB, 5ml EH Cal-mag, and 5ml MFP and sprinkled some Great White rooting powder on the roots and in the soil. I may have been under watering the small pots, as the soil was very very dry even with soaking the top layer everyday. Next time I'll water a little more to make sure the soil is wet enough.
Day 22: The transplant seems to be successful. No signs of stress and she looks happy in her new home.
Day 23: She's starting to take off now. I think that Great White makes a big difference when transplanting!
Day 24: Fed EH early veg week with 3ml instead of 4ml, cal-mag 5ml, and root wizard 15ml
Day 25: Wow! What a difference after one feeding! They have really grown significantly overnight. I'm doing a timelapse and can really see the difference. This will be an interesting grow using EH brand from start to finish.
Day 26: Watered 1 quart of 5ml EH Cal-mag, 5ml EH Sturdy Stalk and .6ml MammothP/gal
Day 27: Sprayed some URB foliar today and just let them do their thing.
Day 28: Fed EH early veg week today. They are really looking good after one week in 1gal pots!
Day 30: Watered 1qt of Cal-Mag, Sturdy Stalk, MammothP today and they are really looking healthy.
Day 32: Transplanted to 7 gam and topped 5th node from each plant. I used Great White root powder sprinkled on the roots and in the transplant hole.
Day 33: Transplant looks to be successful. They were looking a little sad last night, but have completely bounced back and look to be very healthy.
Day 34: Watered a half gallon of Cal-mag, Sturdy Stalk and MammothP. They are really taking off now and when I rub the leaves and smell my fingers, WOAH! These are going to be some stinkers!
Day 35: Looking good and continues fantastic growth. I think I am watering the right amount this time and the growth is showing a great response this time around.
Day 38: I spiked down the 4 mains on each plant today using plant tie downs and wire coat hanger pieces. They are really robust plants for their age compared to previous grows. Either I'm getting the hang of this, or the strains are just going strong or both!
Day 41: Probably the best plant of the bunch right here. She is growing fast and thick and her stem is huge already!
Day 42: Fed 1gal of water per plant today. Huge growth and huge stem. This plant is going to be huge. Smells great, too!
Day 45: Did some additional LST tie downs with plant wire and spread out the canopy so everything underneath is getting more light.
Day 48: Did more LST work to spread out the canopy a bit more. A few weeks to go before adding the screen.
Day 49: A few more weeks before she's ready for the screen, but she smells amazing and is very healthy!
Day 53: I removed the plant tie downs and installed the screens today, as well as turning on the BLOOM switch in addition to the VEG switch. I also bumped the nutes from 4ml to 5ml/gal per the EH feeding chart for late veg feeding.
Day 54: Wow, really big growth spurt after yesterday's feeding. She is already needing to be trained through the screen. SCROG time!
Day 56: Things seem to be pretty dialed in this time. I had actually not been raising the light to the recommended 24" distance, but they didn't seem to mind at all. I did raise them up to about 22", just to be on the safe side and let them grow up into the light. I haven't been foliar feeding as much this time around and there are fewer spots on the leaves and other leaf anomalies that I've seen in the past. Maybe it's the EH nutes keeping everything dialed in? Either way, I'm glad I put the screen on when I did, these babes are growing fast!
Day 57: Increased to 1gal/plant watering volume
Day 59: Lots of growth over the past couple of days and lots of tucking to fill out the screen. This scrog is going MUCH faster than my previous scrogs.
Day 61: Almost time to flip to 12/12! I could wait a bit longer, but I never know how much stretch to allow for, since every plant is different. I might let it go a bit closer to 70 days and see what I think.
Day 63 This should be the last week in veg. It might be a partial week...I'll make the call in a few days. I'm excited to see these babes flower!!!
Day 64: Last day of VEG! I set the timer to 12/12 and lower the lights to 18". These babes are ready to switch, based on my past experience. I hope they don't shoot too much in the next couple of weeks! Flower time is here at last!
Day 65: I tore part of a main top branch today and immediately put clonex gel and used some clear packing tape to secure it back together. I think it will be ok. I sure hope so! It's pretty much the biggest top of the plant. I don't know if the potassium silicate treatment is making the stalks too strong, but I only tried to tuck it into the next hole of the screen. Oh well, time will tell. Fed transistion week 1 nutes today.
Day 67: The branch survived! The plants are stretching nicely and I expect to run out of room on the screen at the outer edges.
Day 69: The canopy is so FULL! I'm amazed at how healthy they are and how many bud sites are filling up the screen!
Day 71: Very healthy plant! The canopy is really filling up and is nearly completely full! I've never filled almost every single square near the outer edge before. I hope the stretch tapers off quickly! Today was a Cal-mag/Sturdy Stalk/MammothP day. 1gal/per plant.
Day 74: This canopy is amazing. I'm very very pleased with these plants! I'm seeing pistils now and after I'm done tucking, my fingers stink!!! Whew!
Day 76: Did some additional tucking of some of the shooter branches, but bent one a little too far. It didn't break, but it did bend, hopefully it will survive. Otherwise, the canopy is rocking!
Day 77: Pistils are clearly visible now as little starter flowers. The tent doesn't smell much, but if you bump leaves or rub a stem, they reallly smell amazing!
Day 78: The buds are beginning to form and the canopy is as full as I could have ever hoped. This is going to be an exciting time as the flowers develop!
Day 82: I'm seeing some sugar on the leaves already! I'm surprised to see some this early in flowering. I hope that's a sign of some sticky goodness yet to come!
Day 84: Another week, and that much closer to harvest! I raised the light a bit to ensure core 3x3 coverage at 18". There really isn't any smell unless I rub a branch, but the pistils look beautiful and will hopefully grow into some dense buds!
Day 85: Bud are forming nicely, but strangely there is no smell at all in the tent! Oh well, easier to keep stealthy! Bump up in nutes this week for flower week 4.
Day 91: I've been letting them do their thing this week. The tent is starting to have a light sweet smell when I open it. The buds are starting to develop some nice trichomes and the leaves are really getting dark! I lot of bud development this week.
Day 92, Flower day 29: The tent is beginning to smell delicious now! The buds are forming nicely and she appears to be a very happy plant! The colors are amazing on this beauty!
Day 99: Flowers are growing strong and are starting to pack on size and trichome development is well underway!
Day 105: The flowers are packing on weight and the tent smells ridiculous. This tent is 10 degrees cooler than the other tent, due to the added lights in the other, so it's interesting to see the difference in plant growth. I don't seem to see any issues with the lower temps at all. In fact, it might be a more suitable temp for them as they are certainly putting out a lot of sugar in the lower temps. Of course, that could be the strain, but either way, the tents are coming along great! Only a few weeks left to go!
Day 106: The tent is really getting a fruity smell now. Still light in the air, but when I move a bud or rub a stem - WOW hits you like a blast of goodness! I've never smelled fresh papaya, but I am smelling what I envision fresh papaya smelling like. It smells amazing!! The buds are getting very sugary and packing on size!
Day 113: This plant is so gorgeous! I can't wait to harvest and smoke her! She smells sooooooo goood! However, while this plant has had virtually no stress the entire grow, when I checked under the canopy, there are a few whispy stems that are full of seeds!! I don't know what happened, but it doesn't appear to have spread above the canopy or to her tent companion. I guess I'll know more when I harvest. Still clear trichomes, but it won't be long now! About 2 weeks left to get to 65 days of flowering.
Day 119: This tent is getting closer and closer to being ripe. I'm still seeing some clear trichomes, but it won't be long now. The different in tent smells is staggering. This tent is full of tropical fruit!!!
Day 127, flower day 64: The time is almost here for harvest! I have begun flushing and should be harvesting this coming Sunday (6 days from now). The tent smells like a tropical fruit patch with bad body odor lol. It's sooooo pungent!!! I am going to be floored when I finally start to cut into these beautiful flowers.
Day 133, flower day 70: HARVEST DAY has arrived at last. The tent is so pungent. I took these pics before I chopped and it looks to be a fantastic harvest. I will setup a harvest week once I'm dried and in jars.
Super sticky buds and an amazingly pungent smell when trimming. After sampling a few dried buds, I was blown away. The seedbank said ‘psychelic’ as the effect and I’d have to agree. It sends me to the moon!
This plant was super easy to grow. It took everything I gave it and barely had the slightest tip burn and only on a few leaves. The smell really was like fresh papaya. At the end, the tent absolutely reeked of tropical fruit and it still smelled amazing lol
@NomNom, actually, there is zero smell in the tent. Even if I get right up on the flowers, I'm not smelling much at all yet. If I rub a branch, my fingers smell amazing, but surprisingly, there's minimal flower odor. At least, not yet!
@gdogfunk,That is FROSTY PURPLE BUD!!!! Awesome, thanks for the picture. I have a pack of these seeds, haven't started them yet so I'm excited to see your grow and to see the purple.
How does it smell?
@NomNom, yes, there is! I snapped a quick phone pic and uploaded it. I’m colorblind of red and green, so I can only see certain shades of red and green, but my friend said there’s a lot of purple! What do you see?
@NomNom, Honestly, it's not as bad as it sounds. There were only a few underneath wispy branches that had them. I cut off the branches I saw under the canopy. From what I can tell, there's no seeds on the main buds above the screen. I suspect she hermied on me, since this tent has been problem free (other than me snapping a couple branches early on). It also didn't seem to spread to the other plant in the tent, so I don't think too much damage was done.
@@ShotGunBob, thank you! from the few samples I’ve indulged, it’s an awesome strain. A couple more weeks in th jars and I can really begin to enjoy the harvest!
