Germination
6 months ago
Soaked the seeds for 36 hours. Half sank. Only one had really cracked the shell with a sliver of a taproot. Soaked coco pellets in water fortified with AZOS XTREME and Rootwise BioPhos and Great White powder microbes. Placed the pellets into Coco pots with Bumper Crop/EWC/vermiculite. Put the seeds in and covered the pellet with soil to the brim of the coco pots. 11/12 as of September 2th. Gonna leave them under 24 hour light for 2 weeks to establish, then 12:12 to sex, then 11:13 & 10:14 to flower. Thanks for peeking! Happy Healthy & Prosperous Growing!! 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚

So the end of seedling has arrived. The plants were removed from the seedling tub & some light snapping was heard. For the final few approvements to transplant, I scooped up the soil to try loosening them and avoid breaking any roots. Regardless - I don't think any lasting damage has occurred. Up-potted to 5qt buckets filled with one gallon of Ocean Forest. This has been sitting outside all summer and was recently re-moistened by rainfall. It had previously been bulked out with Uncle Willy's EWC (which I just learned really aren't EWC, so I'm gonna start a full composting site). Either way -- everything looks off to a great start. Gonna shimmy down from 24/0 -- 11.5/12.5 lighting over the next two weeks. At 19/5, currently with PAR = 230-250 / DLI = 16-17 . I think that's about everything - thanks for peeking!! As always: Happy, Healthy & Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚

I let the babies acclimatized to their new 1 gallon homes, then began the process of trimming daylight. The readings on the PhoTone app gave me the following measurements: @ 19/5 - PAR=230/250 ; DLI=16/17. I did not water or mist on this day; the containers were still heavy. No water was given on veg10. On Veg11 I turned the light up slightly, but did not record/measure values. On Veg12, I again rescheduled my light to be 17/7. Measured to be: PAR=310/350; DLI=20/21. On Veg13, I mixed a very gentle foliar spray/soil feed. I mixed one gallon of water with the above nutrients in a 1 gallon spray-mister, and applied half a gallon, dispersed equally over all specimens, including the underside of leaves. Just prior to the beginning of the night cycle of veg13--Veg14, power went out at my house. It appears to have been a 2.5 hour-long event. The time was reset on Veg14, and I decided to shift down to 15/9 lighting cycle (one day ahead of when I was scheduled) with measured values of DLI=22--26. I didn't remember to write the PAR values, but I do want my DLI higher. This light is a FARMLITE 230w bar-style LED that's meant for 3*3 Max area. I'll be switching this out for one of my hlg 600w lights. Wowsers..I do quality control, professionally, but I enjoy writing these reports more. . As always - Thanks for Peeking!! Happy, Healthy & Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚!!

Howdy!! For starters - I swapped the FARMLITE 230w for my hlg Blackwing 600w. I got sweaty but I didn't damage any diodes. Dialed the Blackwing to reading @ 15/9 lighting: PAR = 420--460 ; DLI = 22--26. The following day - Veg16 - I applied another portion of my foliar spray. I dialed the light up to 560-610 PAR ; DLI = 26--30. I applied the final portion of the foliar spray in the dark on Veg17. Veg18 daylight was further trimmed to 13/11 with PAR = 580--700 ; DLI = 29--33. I mixed and applied a root drench. Veg19 I saw some bright lime green new vegetative growth. Veg20 became 12/12. It was the autumnal equinox so I figured it was suitable. The light has since been measured to be 680--7760 PAR ; DLI = 29--33. I there together a nectar flush and began to apply this on ""veg21"". . Thanks for peeking, we're about to STRETCH!! Happy, Healthy and Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚

So first full week of flower on equatorial sativas did nothinggggg.. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! [STUPID!!! {"UHF", staring weird al, reference}]. Uhhh, fell off the pace of meticulous notes because everything's in show motion. Uhh... I've been kinda bad on watering you'll see, too. Sorry for the lack of defined information. Happy, healthy and Prosperous Growing!!

I think I saw that there were 2 males to show, this week (center row, right side) I think I also accidentally/greedily added some Medusa Magic and I got the expected result with N toxicity. Maybe I've learned my lesson this time. Probably not. Hahahaha!! Happy, Healthy & Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚

Again - not many pictures. A third male showed itself this week. Very very slow growing. I'm thinking about throwing the girls into my living soil beds. I'll continue to drag my feet with the idea for a bit longer as the beds are dry and I've got Blumat soaker tape I wanna install first. Which means I need my reservoir. Which means I've gotta buy one. Which means I'll need a place to place the reservoir. Which is where I'm stuck. Thanks for peeking! Happy Healthy & Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚

Woohoo!! If you're here, you're caught up in flower! I did the last 6 weeks of reports within the last hour. The N toxicity from week 3 has begun to be grown out of. A fourth male has been identified on flower 40. I've been sticking to {bone meal with limestone pH up} flushes & very light feedings of {kelp, guano, aminos & humics w/ limestone up}. They're forgiving, so I haven't been measuring the amounts; I'll change that this cycle (as this update is coming on Flower 40, so there'll be a secondary update here; see you in 2 days!! Until then - Happy Healthy & Prosperous Growing!!

Updated the displayed feeding schedule. Using the most gentle of the NFTG nutes. I think I've gotten it sussed for sativas in my tent. At least, for now. Hahaha.. I've ranked all my plants. Females 1&2 are the desired shape and structure (classic spruce/pine tree shape). I'm hoping the nodes will get bud formations; that would truly make these the most preferred. #3 was the first/fastest to show and has the most (pistils. I know this is incorrect nomenclature). #4 is as tall as #3, but currently has minimal side branching and is more spire-like. #5 is almost stunted - it is very short and compact. #6 is possibly not receiving enough hydration, causing to to appear dodgy. Same overall ranking scheme with the males. But differently displayed. Males #4&5 were the fastest of the fast. I may retain some pollen for an auto-cross. Male #1 is currently my favorite expression and will likely go on to pollinate females #1&2. The remaining 2 are slower, though one has decidedly better structure. I haven't done any stem rubs yet, so that may occur this week, if'n I remember. Still hydrating the beds & will plan to relocate the ladies hopefully this week & pare the daylight hours to 11.5, while maintaining/increasing DLI. . That one's a doozy. Thanks for checking it out! Until the next update: Happy, Healthy & Prosperous Growing 💚👍🤘🤙🖖💚
