Welcome back!!! It’s the beginning of week four. I now consider this plant to have finished the seedling phase, now move onto the veg stage.
THURSDAY - Day 22
10 October 24
- Switched the blue spec light out for the red spec light.
- 380 PAR/ PPFD at 26 inches distance.
- Topped the two bottom branches.
- Started doing a little LST by adding a few staples and a little bit of branch manipulation.
- She’s slowly shaping to my vision for this plant.
- Gotta start thinking of up potting her soon into her final home.
FRIDAY - Day 23
11 October 24
- Added two more LST staples.
- Just a day under the lights.
SATURDAY - Day 24
12 October 24
Watering day, 1 litre of dechlorinated tap water.
- Base water 1 litre - 61.1 PPM
Final - 1 litre at 6.45 PH at 62.8 PPM
Runoff - N/A
- Thinking of removing those giant fam leaves soon, they’re becoming cumbersome.
- Did my final planned topping of the two top branches.
- I tweaked a top branch and there was a pop at the knuckle, not a complete break but there’s a bit of damage.
- I’m fairly confident that she’ll send resources to fix it and make it even stronger.
- No stress, we push forwards and roll with the punches cause that’s what we do around here.
SUNDAY - Day 25
13 October 24
- Just a day under the lights.
- She doesn’t seem too bothered by yesterday’s branch tweaking.
- There’s a but of a split but it seems to be scabbing over.
- I’ll keep monitoring it over the next few days.
MONDAY - Day 26
14 October 24
- Just a day under the lights.
- Also a good recovery day.
TUESDAY - Day 27
15 October 24
Transplant day into a 5 gallon pot and her final home.
60% Gaia Green Soil
20% Worm castings
20% Perlite
8 Tbsp Gaia Green All Purpose
4 Tbsp Gaia Green Power Bloom
5 Tbsp Diatomaceous Earth
1/2 Tbsp Dynomyco
Amended this mix and transplanted.
Watering day, 5 litres of dechlorinated tap water.
- Base water 5 litres - 61.2 PPM
- Add 2.5 ml Cal-Max - 172 PPM
- Add 5 ml Supermax - 206 PPM
- Add 15 ml Miicrobial Mass - 337 PPM
Final - 5 litres at 6.61 PH at 337 PPM
Runoff - N/A
- Removed the LST staples to let her acclimate to her new home.
- Will resume LST in a few days.
- Removed the lowest fan leaves.
- Some leaves are funky but they also are in the way of the important growth so they may get removed in the near future.
WEDNESDAY - Day 28
16 October 24
- Just a day under the lights recovering from yesterday’s transplant and extended light hours.
- She’s perked back up and looking happy though.
- Probably resume with LST staples tomorrow.
- The tweaked branch looks like it’s going to recover just fine, just a little weary about working it too soon.
This is effectively the end of week four, it’s been quite eventful but we’re done with topping and transplanting so we’ll see how she gets on these next few weeks of pure unadulterated vegetation. Vamos!!
Indeed- Fuck wet weight.. like wtf.
Congratulations on the harvest. Can’t wait to see what you have to say after both are good to go. Interested on the results
@Krisis, thanks girl friend!!
right?! Who gives a crap for wet weight?? I don’t. Ophelia is going to go a bit longer as the breeder recommends nine to eleven weeks of flowering. As for this girl I was definitely in the window. I’m excited to try these two girls out.
@WeedSeedsExpress, awwwwwwww yeah!!!! Thank you so much for the kind words!!
Again a huge thank you for offering me the opportunity to grow some of your genetics. She truly was a pleasure to grow.
I can only hope the permanent marker or gmo turn out like this did for u! Well done my friend !!
I agree with the "wet weight" metric , one that could be gone away with lose like 75% depending how u wet weigh lol silly to me.
But again, great job here and all the best to you n 2025!!
@Grow4Releaf, thanks for the kind words man I appreciate the love.
I think your girls will do you right. You’ve got some nice grows in your profile. I definitely think you got this.
Yeah down with wet weight!!! Lol.
Plus how do you even put a chopped plant on a small scale to even get an accurate weight? And it has all the stem too. I’m not wasting my time on something stupid.
@jbtju, haha thanks brother. Yeah she turned out really nice. When push comes to shove I’m not on a very high level man. Just a regular dude trying my best. I’ve been told by an other user that I suck, I completely fucked up this run, my plants are overfed and underfed. I should be discouraged from growing and I’m also stupid for putting sativas in tent. Thanks for the kind words bro.
@BarneyRumble420, Happy New Year brother, how are things??!Thank you very much, she really was a pleasure to grow. Unfortunately drying conditions aren’t the most optimal but it is what it is. I’m super excited to see how it smokes.
@gottagrowsometime, thank you very much!! That means a lot coming from you. I really appreciate the kind words. I’m probably looking to harvest Monday I think. Weedseedsexpress says 8 to 9 weeks of flowering. So we’re getting close. Thanks for stopping by 🤙
@Hempface86, it smells absolutely wonderful too. Getting close to the end with this girl. About an other two weeks to go. Ophelia will probably go about an other 3-4 weeks.
@PenguPoop, yeah man I’m so looking forward to this strain. Both are going to be great. I can’t wait. Should be ready to smoke by March or early April.
@Hempface86, thanks bro. Yeah Helena is definitely turning into a monster. Hopefully I can keep these girls happy until the end a finally have a grow that didn’t have any issues.
@Hempface86, thanks brother. I messed up a little last night and tweaked one of her branches at the knuckle it split a little bit. I’m not too worried though she’ll send some resources to that location to patch things up and she’ll be stronger down the road.
