2x4' with 300w Marshydro Led and Dr.Organic Living Soil
So one seed has popped out of 2 bagseed I had. I am waiting on a GSC from Barneys Farm, so hopefully 1 will pop an join this one.
I am aiming to veg for 4 weeks or so and to top and start doing some low stress training before going to flowering.
I haven't used organic living soil before, previously used Coco but would rather not spend so much time worrying about nutes or PH, let's see how it works out.
If they grow well, then I plan to clone and then put them to veg in a little tent whilst these finish flowering BUT I am getting ahead of myself.
Yes, so previously a smaller tent with CFLs and worked well but hoping extra space and better light will make this more enjoyable. ✌️
So this is sister, which is Matanuska Thunderfuck not GSC. Seed vendor sent me Critical Kush rather than Girl Scout Cookies but this was the free seed.
Leaves are quite long and thin.
Both these in organic soil so will be a learning experience, only used Coco previously (and a smaller tents + CFC, so hopefully a good grow with better lights and tent)
So the bagseed had a head start, classing it as week 2, as looks a little immature for week 3. I left it not under light until it's sister popped.
Started to LST and will top when another node or so. Then continue to LST. Not going to veg for very long but will wait until I have topped the other and started LST before flipping to flower.
So this one of my girls at end of week 6 of flower - looking healthy, giving them one last top dressing of bloom nutes. To me they look like they will need at least several more weeks, maybe even 4, as not any browning of pistils and plant still seems healthy and pretty green 💚
plants are looking nice, I highly doubt it will be several more weeks. 2-3 is my estimate
The diary you linked to them is 2 months old and classified as abandoned??? Might want to update it a bit.
When harvesting some strain don't always have the same ripening factors as others, I try and compare multiple things.
Trichome Degradation : clear vs cloudy vs amber, I aim for mostly cloudy with some amber and some clear.
Pistil Dry Back. : I like to see around 80% of the pistils dry,
Feeding/Drinking : The plant is going to be drinking less in its end of life so its also a sign its ready when the pots are staying wet for longer.
Bud Density : Depending on the strain, buds will get nice and dense end of life. Bulk up
When most or all of these conditions are met its harvest time. There are weird ones that don't amber up or don't have much pistil dry back but they are ready for harvest so have to use your best judgment.
