Updates/Observations:
-I was able to confirm that Double Dragon #2 and Sunkiss x MAC #3 were males. They were culled, chopping them up and layering them down into the mulch layer.
-I was also able to confirm that Double Dragon #3 and Sunkiss x MAC #2 are females! Yay! 🙌
-Used foam wires and super cropping to train the remaining apical meristems into the holes in the canopy that culling the males opened up.
-Most of the plants continue to show a nitrogen overabundance in slightly clawed leaf tips but it doesn't seem to be adversely effecting them a this time.
-Clones were tough to maintain in the clone set up I had so they had to be given to the worms. I have decided to eventually just reveg this pod and take clones from that for my selfing run.
-Plants started to get stinky so I installed a carbon filter to help keep it down a bit. I have never had veg plants that smelled so much.
-I have actually been able to start watering about a half gallon every 3 days approximately so they are drinking quite a bit now.
-Cleaned out my water reservoir and drip lines with a vinegar solution for maintenance.
-Applied some cable management best practices to clean up the grow rooms a bit and make it a bit more satisfying to look at. 😏
Cheers!

@GrimbolTheDruid, you might regret your kind offer in a couple weeks 😅 but for now i warmly accept 🙌your offer for help , will ping you kindly down the line :bow: 🙏
@CRiSPrGrow,
You are most welcome my friend. Always feel free to ask me any questions and I’ll do my best to answer or point you towards someone smarter than me.
ah i see better wtf a foam wire is now, thanks for this high level diary bro, i'm learning shittons, really + i'm 10/10 with @thebudwhisperer defo gonna do me some grimbolLST next run 🙌 🙌 🙌 🙌
@Budcrack,
I will get there sometime my friend, but thank you very much for your support!
As far as a source for no-till stuff, I would recommend starting at buildasoil.com. They have all the reading material you need and very fair prices for top quality amendments. That is where I get most of my stuff.
Good luck!

@CRiSPrGrow,
To be honest I am really just paying attention to the plants and every 4 days seems to keep them praying pretty consistently. Hard to know for sure. 🙏

@CaliGrown,
Thanks man! It is a lot of fun but I won't lie, trying to dial in watering without being able to pick up the pot is roughhhhhhhh. Kind of missing pots tbh lol.
@GrimbolTheDruid, very cool ! hopefully one day Bulbi will grow some experimentals from the Grimbol lol i love home breeding very cool beans ! pun intended !
@CRiSPrGrow,
For the males? Nah they went back to the soil. Chopped them up and dropped them into the pot for the worms.
There will be an experiment coming up though!
Cheers!
@GrimbolTheDruid, You're welcome, and glad you liked the name, haha! I'm an organic grower as well. Still new to the growing game, but I think my next round I will have it dialed in more. Nothing beats the taste of organic.
@CRiSPrGrow,
Thanks man! I will definitely keep you updated on her. One of those beans grown out about a year or so ago was some of my favorite Meph smoke I have ever had.
Might have some crazy new stuff on the way though, get ready!
Grower's love,
Grimbol
