🎄'24 Christmas🎅Grow🎄

Monday 10/7 1 am Orion was 2nd to sprout. 10/8 Orion sprouted, garlic was planted too shallow, I think I fixed it but started a new seed just in case. All are looking good so far. 10/9 sprouts are dying. maybe I accidentally got nutrient water mixed with plain water... Garlic sprouted then died I didn’t plant it rand only Cosmos CBD sprouted but looks horrible. Orion sprouted then the seedling didn't develop just a tap root and weak looking plant. Planting a NEW Orion seed at 2 am. Cosmos looks ok. I planted Garlic Muffin so shallow and spilled water so she rose up even higher...but the others I dont know why. Put a new Galic Muffin in a rock wool cube for germination. Orion will go right in the dirt. If I dont see activity from the others I will dig them up and start over. I HATE germination, absolutely hate it. 10/9 5 am Pulled out Orion planted a new seed from. a new package, starting again. She looked too stunted not taking another 2 week risk to find out. I clearly did not plant them deep enough But not good so far. Cosmos looks like a fail as well. Too weak. I must have used a cup that had some nutrient in the bottom of it. That’s the only thing I can figure out that I could’ve done. 10/9 10:30pm NONE are working. So why bother with F1's? Cosmos looks like a junker as well. Since not a single one of these is woking Im making them all as 0 and starting over 😡 10/10 planting Cosmos again last one..... Throwing away the rest of the F1's today. All seeds from an order I got were junk. Apollo was my favorite but wont germinate now, Can't figure out why. Replaced all 6 seeds. The dirt was compacted from careless watering, Dirt was packed too tight. Ariated the soil, mixed it up with paper clip and now will wait 3 days. Let me tell you the secret to killing all your seeds. 1. Over pack your pots with dirt, very important! 2 Plant too shallow in the over packed dirt. 3. Over water and pour it in large amounts directly over the seed. THATS IT. Just wait for the dirt to compact on top of the seed and drown it!!!!! The more you know!!! 10/11 4 am... I am so pissed its my fault the seeds didn't work...I wanted to blame the seed company, or the water or maybe immigants but damnit I just did it wrong. 930am Garlic Muffin sprouted👍👍 all the problems I’ve had with my grow. Is someone else’s fault,…. 10/12 4am Galic îs looking great, it is easier to start in rock wool. I might to that from now on I soaked it in hydrogen peroxide first 10/13 1am. Only Garlic worked, the other 5 are dead still. So All the RQS seeds were bad. Seedsman Garlic is the only one....About 10 bad seeds from rqs and thats about it. 2 out of 12. These are not going to pop either. All the last orders from RQS got about 80 failure rate. Im going to start FastBuds this time. I will try to germinate them in rock wool but this is just garbage. Maybe temper tantrum too soon. Cookie Apple is sprouting, Seedsman seeds are usually very strong. I have lots of Critical Kush to grow too. Cosmos sprouted...but in a completely different place dont know how I can be so filling bad at this. 10/14 11pm Apollo looked like it partially germinated then died, no movement since yesterday, thats 100% fail rate on F1 again. Planting another today.

10/14 Monday 12am. Waiting on Fatso and Orion. 10/14 1230pm. 2pm Apollo is waking up had me worried for a while. Orion is in the cube, should see her in 3 days. All these mistakes set me back almost a 10/15 1am started the last of 3 Apollo seeds. She just about srrouted then just stopped like the others. Started a new seed in rock wool . Dug up the old one saw some sign of life so I'll give it a few hours to see any movement. If 2 is alive I will plant #3 in the goat'lato auto that was not an auto so I wasted 2 months on that, just going to cut it down and use the same dirt and perlite. 4am. Speaking of failed plants the RQS Goat'lato Tyson seed NEVER flipped. Wasn't an auto, dont have a setup for lightproof 12 hrs a day....Veg for a month flower for 2 OR 3 months THEN I would notice it Hermied and got pollen sacks...I wouldn't see that until it pollinated all the other plants so NO NO NO flacking way it's worth the 3 month maybe's. 5am Planted OG Kush Auto by Seedsman in the the goat from RSQ I threw away. adding to this grow... HORRIBLE to know I cant trust the Goats to flower AGAIN. I wanted to start it over but wasting 2 to 3 months and find out I got another bad seeds.... Sorry RSQ we dont work well together, your seeds dont like me, your plants dont like me, and all the free Northern Light seeds wont make up for the losses. Got out the AC Infinity Nursery fits 2 1 gallon for my 3rd and last Apollo and trying OG Kush Auto by Seedsman 10/16 2am all seedlings are ok, waiting on 3 others to sprout. lost about 8 seeds so far. Using Rapid Start 1ml per gallon & pH 6.8ish water for the first week or so. 10/17 11pm Orion sprouted!!! 10/18👍12 am. 5am turned all the plants. looks good. Eating on OG Kush Auto and Apollo now.

10/21 I will be using General hydroponics MaxiGrow 2 grams per gallon to start and 0.8ml of Rapid Root. STILL waiting on 2 seeds to wake up. lost almost an entire MONTH because I couldn't germinate the seeds. Apollo died again 10/23 6am. They are responding well to their first night of dark and rotating the plants in the tent during veg is important. Growing faster and broader leaves with Rapid Start and 2 grams of Maxi Grow Powder. Rapid Start alone for the first week made a nice difference 10/24 3am. loosk good. letting them dry out more before next watering. 1pm good 10/25 light water each 10/25 I managed to kill 2 more seeds.... doing these next. when I was using 3 gallon fabric pots I used a. Sharpie pen to make a 1/4 hole and 4 days later they would spout. 1 gallon dirt drys differently and more uneven. so germination will have to change. 10/27 End of week Using Maxi-Grow 4.4grams, 0.8 Cal-Mag (one time) 1ml Rapid Start by GH next week

10/28 12am MONDAY Using Maxi-Grow 4.4grams, 0.8 Cal-Mag (one time) 1ml Rapid Start by GH this week. 11am Topped Garlic & Cosmos. 10/29 12 am cut the 2 bottom branches off of Galic & Cosmos a nice 4 cola grow, easier to water, easier to fit in the tent & amazing solid colas just like photoperiod flowers. 5 am topped the other 2, will wait a day to take the lowest branches off them then same for Orion next week. 10/30 2am. 5am finished cutting bottom branches and leaves that were forming at the cotyledon from Fatso. 9am Trying something new, cutting off the 2 bottom branches of Orion while they are very small instead of topping first. Topping will be in a day or 2 RAPID START by GH has made an incredible difference in growth and noticing new bud sites forming at node 3 on all plants from different breeders and strains. Maxi-Grow 4.4grams, 0.8 Cal-Mag (one time) 1ml Rapid Start by GH worked great this week. pre-LST training with Canopy Creations LST today, I used 2 on 2 plants as counter wights to add stress to the lowest branch set. It will build up the joints. I will remove them tomorrow. 2 other plants LST normally they are very strong with the nutrient schedule Im using. 10/31🎃🎃🎃 I used the powder nutrient along with rapid start a little cow last week. I don’t think I’ll use anymore for a while. These are really turning out nice👍 Cosmos has extra bud sites like a photoperiod. haven't seen that before. 11/1 They look good rotated them might top Orion later today. The branches are getting thick from the training already, much better results with this nutrient 11/2 12 am rotated they will need water later today. 11/3 12am trained Garlic gave water Maxi-Grow 4.4grams, 0.6 Cal-Mag 1ml Rapid Start by GH smaller amounts this time little more than half a red cup. Garlic branches are thick and strong from LST. 8am Orion topped.

11/4 130am Lights up to 77 watts 4.3 grams Maxi-Grow powder this week. Using mix from last week. Will probably switch to Bloom by Wed. 11/5 12am Canopy Creations LST things are great resistance training builds huge branches!!! They are amazing. 10am growing fast and big after today’s watering!!! Garlic muffin and fatso have the thickest branches that I’ve ever seen the side branches are thicker than what I got when I was growing in bigger containers so these nutrients and the soil and this light wattage seems to be a good formula I have to save this and work on it And stressing with the Canopy Creations has doubled the diameter of the branches that I have been stressing. Just great results. 11/6 Galic is the strongest so far her branches are THICK, a perfect 4 cola grow. Each of the 4 branches are as thick as the main stem on my first few tries at this. 12am They were all dry gave water probably last week using Grow switching to Bloom nutrients. Extremely strong plants from Seedsman!!!! When I finally got them going I found using Maxi-Grow & Rapid Start made a huge difference!!! Only Rapid Start for the first week. 11/7 1am GM & CA are huge now!! lights up 89W as the leaves fold up a little for the heat I will raise them an inch or so. 1pm did water today. They are starting to flower 11/8 12:30am Switched to Bloom nutrients yesterday after the last feeding with Grow they all went to sleep right away after that and are waking up now with flowers forming. I will use 4grams Bloom, 0.4 Purpinator, 0.5 Rapid Start, 0.4 Silica, 0.4 Cal/Mag. Silica causes fluctuations in pH. 2am Galic is a MONSTER, and Seedsman is out of them. Fatso is next for size. I can not believe how huge the branches are this technique of 4 colas in a small 1 gallon container. These plants will be perfect for this 9am LST crazy day!!! I have never been able to train the small set of first branches that come off the first node on plants before until seedsmen Faso and garlic🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 11/9 1am flowering I might have to split them up into 2 tents they are all getting bigger than I thought they could, this is just great! after 20 fails I think im getting this small grow style worked out. 1:30pm moved the RSQ's into tent 3. Tent 2 not big enough but I'll make it work. Once I harvest the plants from the 🎃 Halloween All the Darkness grow it will be easier. Galic & Fatso by Seedman are HUGE very thick branches, thick side branches responds to training extremely well. Strongest F1's!

11/11 Monday 1am. Water today. the LST and topping worked out great. Very thick branches. 4 gram Maxi-Bloom, .04 Purpinator, 1ml Rapid Start this week. 11/12 2am took smaller lower flowers off of Cosmos. Maybe not the best idea during flower. Im taking the lower lateral branches off of Fatso and Garlic, they are just so long they will get in the way. The top 4 cola branches are better than I have ever done before, finally. 1am defoliation on Garlic. 3pm They were dry esp. tent 3. gave water again they are all getting ready to sleep. Fatso seems to have the node space and buds forming right at the nodes and not on long twigs. FastBuds like Gorilla Cookies has similar structures for small grow spaces. NYC Tyson Desil is in the drying tent she is SO nice. It's hard to grow and gets too tall and only gives small panda head buds instead of big single rocket buds so not good for my grow style but a great smoke and beautiful colors. Seedsmans Fatso is so strong I might re-use the dirt from my last grow and fill a 3 gallon fabric pot and do a transplant. Risky and I never planned for that but she could really produce HUGE if I do it right.👍 11/13 2-5am Garlic did great with heavy defoliation yesterday. both needed water No perlite on Fatso so she dries out fast and more even. 12-2pm Water again, about every 12 hours now. Did more LST training on the upper side branches of Garlic. SO MUCH growth I cant believe how great they are Apple, Cosmos and Orion are doing ok, not as great as the other 2. 11/14 1:40am All looking good. Apple is struggling for some reason, she has from the beginning. Cosmos and Orion are doing well, not big and strong like Fatso & Garlic. Still deciding on moving Fatso and Garlic to a 3 gallon fabric pot?? probably shouldn't or get drunk and do it then. The LST training im able to do has been great using this style, but im still not sure if I should cut the innermost side branches that are flowering or not. I'll experiment and leave one like I did by not defoliating Fatso and doing over defoliation on Garlic. 5am LST. 11/15 2pm watered except Apple. She's going slow. Fatso is a monster just love her!! Garlic is 2nd. 11/17 2pm Sunday. What a week, LOTS of LST. Flowering going good. Defoliation vs LST is a toss up. You need to do both or neither depending on the strength of the plant and individual branches. It slowed down Garlic but it's catching up now. Watered with lots of runoff SO much easier doing a flush in a 1 gallon pot.!!

11/18 12am Monday 4.3 grams Maxi-Bloom & 0.8 Purpinator this week. They are getting tall except Apple. Everything looks good I might take some branches off the back of them today. 2pm Gave all water today just MB 4.8. Used the entire gallon on the plants today. Have to mix up more, takes 2 days to dissolve longer if it's cold. 11/20 Wed. 1am Fatso & Garlic are getting tall had to move the lights, ducting & fans up. Have to wash the hand made intake and exit filters today. the double sided tape and merv 13 do a really nice job. 👍 4am the lights were too close. Should’ve kept them at 96W if I make any changes now it could trigger pollen sacks 11/21 1pm some defoliation on Orion, Changed the filters they were dirty and preventing clean fresh air from circulating properly. 11/22 Friday. Garlic is TALL!!! Apple is filling in finally, I keep forgetting some are 2 weeks behind. The main 4 colas are going to be solid like photos. I have to add some more dirt. Pretty amazing plants. . took an hour to upload. 9am The Seedsman plants. are putting out lots of resin now, Fatso is fat, looks like I will have 4 MASSIVE colas from each plant. I just experimented with jar drying my last harvest and it worked out great. 12pm Just spent lots of time doing LST on Cosmos, I did every branch I could. Hope this works. 11/23 Saturday 1am. Takes a while to upload. Looks good from yesterday. I might have to take off at least 1 of the small inner branches not sure. Dont want to do any more defoliation than I have to it will just slow down the plant if I do. 5am Several of the top leaves on Cosmos are stretching up which means she's happy and healthy the LST training worked she's happy. 1pm Gave everyone water at 11am. Mixed up Maxi-Bloom 4.3 grams & 0.8ml Purpinator balances pH to 6.4.

11/25 230am 👍. 4.5 grams Maxi-Bloom, 0.8ml Purpinator per gallon this week. I go through 3 gallons a week. One of the 3 gallons I added 1ml of Cal/Mag. 4pm Garlic has been slow since I over defoliated. Now she's growing the leaves back she needs for the flowers. Fatso💪 is beyond amazing!!! If I would have put her in a 3 or 5 gallon she would have been an absolute monster!!! Only Gorilla Cookies by Fastbuds has been this big. She loves the 4 cola grow system im working on 👍 11/26 light watering earlier today took 2 small lower branches off of Orion with small buds on them. They were in the center of the plant and in the way. 12/1 2am they look great lots of resin. NEW FILTER IDEA.... i like the chrome look of Vivosun filters on the exhaust fan, small Vivosun fan. The weight of the filter holds the fan into place, Using 2 carbon filters would be ok, but I wrap the inside tent filter with several layers of MERV 13 for a particle filter..but now noticed it just impedes airflow and heats the tent...room is smelling now. I wash the vivosun filters in the bathtub.... so going to move the old Vivosun filter inside the tent as a particle filter and use the AC infinity for the exhaust ...hard to explain

12/2 3pm Monday. 4.5 grams Maxi-Bloom & 0.8 Purpinator seems to be the right mix. 12/4 12am Water 4.5g MB & 0.8 Purpinator. 12pm. I just ordered Cannakan!!!! I was going to get it through Seedsman, I missed the sale and ended up finding it at Amazon. I kill SO MANY seeds it's got to be worth it! 12/5 watered added silica (im careful with Silica, its seems to lower the pH. usually use GH, trying AN this week) and calcium magnesium to the next 2 1 gallons of water for all of the plants and that will be the only time I add calcium or silica. Fatso seemed a little deficient. This should fix that. PH is 5.88. HEAVY defoliation slowed Garlic at first, now growing strong with new fan and sugar leaves grown. Now Fatso has more older fan leaves that are yellowing with age. The 2nd set of leaves will grow in around the buds on Fatso. Not sure which method is the best one yet. Fatso has much larger buds but that could also just be from the strain. 12/6 Canopy Creations versus regular LST training🚨🚨🚨🚨 Canopy Creations wins by one gram!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨👍👍👍 this was my unscientific study. I took two small bottom branches off of Fatso using the two different kinds of training clips and the one from canopy creations wins by 1 g not much but definitely enough.🎉🎉🎉. 💥FATSO by Seedsman is 10 out of 10!!!!! HUGE, can be topped and the lower branches can be LST growth is outstanding!!!! I missed the BOGO sale at Seedsman so I will get as many Fatso as I can get these seem perfect for the style of growing I do. I just smoked some right off the plant, great!!!! Nice fresh smell just perfect1!!!!!!! 12/8 Took side branches from Orion, I ran out. Smells nice.

12/9 2am 12/9 2am I grew a Wizard casting a lighting spell from a wand w/ heart horns in an enchanted Christmas forest!!! 4.3 MB, 0.8 Purpinator this week. 2pm Seedsman F1's might be the best plants Ive ever grown. Garlic is a little tall, but internode spacing makes for beautiful colas forming. Fatso is a monster of resin, I can not believe what I am getting, Just perfect and just Maxi-Bloom powder and Purpinator with a couple of 1ml Cal/Mag & 0.8ml Silica (should have gone with 0.6ml Silica but I dont think it is worth the pH problems) added to the one gallon watering cycle twice during 2nd week of flower. 4pm I am fighting the 10 week temptation!!!!!!! It's doing great, the temptation is to add a supplement or more light.... something stupid that will never ever EVER make it better ...must fight week 10 temptation!!!!!! Also absolutely no Silica supplements from now on, they will cause massive pH fluctuations & therefore nutrient imbalances that will cause visible very long bleached/burnt leaf tips. I can see resin forming right after I use my regular mix of MB & Purpinator 12/11 Took samples from Orion, smells great. Cosmos CBD and the 3 from Seedsman in Tent 2 are covered in lots of resin now. Seedsman's have more weed AND resin Ive ever seen on an Autoflower!!!! 12/12 CannaKan came in the mail!!!! 12/13 Took 4 small side branches from Garlic Muffin 10 or 12g when dry. Smells and feels nice. 12/14 3pm the garlic ranches dried overnight pretty good. I smoked some and pretty nice very relaxing. All the plants are doing very good. I put a little support on fatso so she’s more of a rectangle a little easier to fit in the tent right now she’s growing as large as a photo garlic muffin is starting to turn really nice colors at the top a lot of resin she’s gonna be phenomenal and Orion is much smaller than the seedsman plants but she smells just beautiful.

12/16 Monday. Yesterday got the new Spider Farmer 2.8 x 2.8 x 63 ITs GREAT. better than the last 4, great reflective coating now the little squares!! The old tent had a mildew smell so I got rid of it. It lasted several years. I used to have 2 cats they both died about a year ago so it probably had dust from the cat litter. The new tent looks so clean and smells nice. 12/17 9am Got 40 grams wet from small side branches of Garlic Muffin by Seedsman, BEAUTIFUL so thick and full of resin!!! 12/18 Maxi-Bloom 5.0 grams no Purpinator for 2 cycles. I want to see how Maxi-Bloom does on its own. 12pm. watered all earlier today looks good. 12/19 1:30am Looking great, seeing lots of pistil formation!!!! 12/20 2am looking great. Cosmos is about done she will finish with bright colors so I keep the yellowing leaves on. 4pm looks great 12/21 Took a little from Cosmos to smoke over Christmas, smells nice.

12/23 12pm took some samples from Cookie Apple by Seedsman today so I have Cookies for Santa on Christmas, you never know!!! 12/24 Cosmos CBD had nanners so I took her down she stopped growing last week. She smells STRONG and is very DENSE. I took a couple buds earlier and got 5.78 today, so about 6oz wet. Pretty darn good!!!! 12/26 I got 1.5 oz dry from Cosmos CBD!!! Pretty Good She is so THICK and smells STRONG & beautiful. 12/29 4am took .88 oz wet from Orion this morning, she's done, ill just run water through for a couple days. Not a big producer like the other 3. The last 3 from Seedsman are STILL growing!!!! I have never seen flower formation like this past the 10h week, I am keeping them going!!! I used Liquid KoolBloom for 1 week, it was a bad I idea, going back to 4 gram MB and 0.6 Purpinator. 7am.

12/30 MONDAY 4am MB 4g & 0.8ml Purpinator. I tried Liquid KoolBloom, it's ok. 2pm Put the small Orion cola in a jar, not a big producer under my grow conditions but it smells and tastes just beautiful. LOTS of resin very sticky smokes just fine after hanging to dry for a couple days. 12/31 3am. 1pm took another cola from Orion about 1.5 wet so maybe half oz dry. Small grows are still the way to go for me. EVERYTHING is just so much easier, less messy. I get about the same amount from 1 gallon indoor soil grows than I did from HUGE 3 gallon fabric pots that I used Outdoor soil...infected shipped all over the country so every kind of bug.... I did NOT know to use airtight INDOOR specific soil or it will have BUGS & MITES...., like Root Mealy Bugs that will eat the roots as they grow...I didn't know that could happen!!!! 1/1 4am they are great 1/3 11 am Took the smallest cola from Cookie Apple & arranged the plants closer together. They fit like a puzzle as I take each cola & require a little less water. 1/4 2am

1/6 Monday 2am Going to take a branch from each one today!!! I did a water only flush through yesterday, which is way easier with one gallon pots, it takes about 2 party cups for complete flush. Some nice results 61 grams or 2.15 oz wet from one cola off of Fatso and Garlic Muffin. Almost the exact same WOW great. 1/8 Happy Elvis Day. 3am Branches from Garlic and Fatso are hanging drying I had some a few minutes ago & it's just great. LOTS of muscle pain tonight, which brings nausea then I get chills and it goes on from there... it helps so much you have no idea. Got 0.7oz off of each cola Fatso and Garlic dry so about 2.5oz per plant from 1 gallon pots NOT BAD!!! MUCH easier!!! Got 2.70oz off Fatso cola today. 1/9 3 am I carefully fluffed out the buds to help them grow and it worked. They are ripening and looking great. I took a branch off of Fatso I thought I saw Nanners on top, I could be wrong but I took it down any way. They are just the best. 10am took a branch off of CA and Garlic. Got 2.6ox wet each 1/13 7am 1.27 wet from Orion so probably a .25 dry so about an ounce total from Orion. Orion does not like such a small container but in a 3 gallon you would do better with RSQ F1's just do better not topped or trimmed they are more set and forget, but I like to do LST.

1/13 MONDAY 7am 1.27 wet from Orion so probably a .25 dry so about an ounce total from Orion. Orion does not like such a small container but in a 3 gallon you would do better with RSQ F1's just do better not topped or trimmed they are more set and forget, but I like to do LST. Garlic Muffin 2 colas left one dry in the jar. 1/14 2am Taking down Garlic today, she's tall and I need to lower the light for the shorter new plants. Garlic dries dark, lots of purple STRONG smell great effects. 4.5 ounces from 2 colas. so 9 ounces wet 98 days from planting to my last 2 colas pretty great very very dense. 1/18 1pm Fatso is about done, CA is still going!! I have 2 more CA's going in my next grow. They might be my new favorite off all time. They have no problems with my 1 gallon pot micro style of growing. I never want to lift a 3 gallon fabric pot ever again, too much. 1/19 7am took the last 2 colas from Fatso 3 oz wet so .5 oz dry maybe more pretty great 1 gallon. Cookie Apple is still going!! 2 pm 💦CA

1/20 12 am Monday CA is still going!!! 1/22 3am CA is in the dark tent, mostly dry already!!! 1/26 12am Put the last of CA in the jar. I got about 2 or 3 oz dry not sure, pretty good though.

10 plus 1. ALL Seedsman F1's have been the strongest easiest to prune and feed and LST. If you do nothing they are still just fine. Cookie Apple when topped above the 3rd node remains very short and the colas are HUGE. I got about 1oz dry per cola so about 3.5 dry oz from a 1 gallon pot. This one is PERFECT for small grows and you still get great harvest.

10 plus 1. ALL Seedsman F1's have been the strongest easiest to prune and feed and LST plants.. Garlic is taller and thinner than Cookie Apple. Huge producer in small container. I got about 2.5 oz total dry. Smoking it right now, just perfect in every way. Cookie Apple, Fatso, and Garlic Muffin in that order of perfection.

10 plus 2.... This one is a MONSTER!!!!! I can not imagine how HUGE this would be in a large grow. Probably 3.5 or 4 oz dry from a one gallon pot. Very very very nice.
