First night owl seeds ever. Planted dry seed on 10/30/24. She sprouted on 11/2/2024. 3 days is damn good. Had to restart my mephisto freebie next to her ending up being a mutant. Might give her another week till I chop it for comparison. That one will be 2 weeks old by the time midnight marathon is a week old. Gaia green nutrients 70/30 with 10 percent worm castings.

Everything went great this week. Even mephisto freebie mutant started to grow out of it but gave her the chop today so midnight marathon can flourish. No nutrients this week as I preamended my soil with 70% 444 with 30% 284 and roughly 10 percent worm castings.

Pretty good start I'd say. Been giving 1.5 cups of water every 3 to 4 days this week combined with the preamend soil I did with gaia green full strength (3Tbls to gallon 70/30 444 to 284) before germination. These are the results. I also chopped the mutated slow grower out and put on top of soil in the beginning. And added a ecowitt mid week to help me keep track on watering.

We have pistols. She is about to start her stretch which is good I'm only in a 1.5ft x 2ft space under a 150 w led. Being in a 2 gal pot triggered her early. Going to lst her in start of week 4 plus top dress all next week. Also had bought worms for my no till grow and throw 5 in help breakdown of nutrients and other benefits as well.

Beginning this week I swap mars hydro sp 150 to hlg 135 rspec started at 30 inches brought it down a inch a day. Currently sitting at 24 inches. She is in flower and expect one more week of stretch. Most of training is done just going to bend any dominant branch from here on. 3.5 weeks old I gave a good top dress check photos.

Day 35 since seed broke soil. Definitely small pots trigger autos early but that's what I'm going for. Could be useful tool in the future to know for sog style grows. I didn't do anything this week just let her be as far as training. I let her grow to 20 inches from light and plan on hitting 18 when I see no more stretch.

In the beginning of this week I did a little lollipoping and defoliation to get more light to the buds. Middle of this week I decided to do a top dress with kashiblend and gnarly barley to keep my initial top dress at 3.5 weeks old breaking down and nutrients available to plant. Other than thatvim happy with her so far.

I'm really happy how this midnight marathon is turning out. This week I lowered light to 18 inches at the beginning. Took a few more leaves off maybe 7 just making sure all buds are receiving light. As far as nutrients nothing since last top dress of kashi blend and gnarly barley at 5.5 weeks old. To me there's plenty of nutrients maybe a little to much so all she has in soil is soil amended before planting seed at 3 tbls a gal and a top dress at 1 tbls a gal 3.5 weeks later with gaia green products.

This week brought temps down to around 74. She is starting to ripen up this week and putting out some color. I'm expecting 3 ounces from this basic setup closet, 150w light, one clip on fan, one temp/humidity meter, 2 gallons of soil laying around, some nutrients, and some water that's it.

This stage is all about patience. Just watching trichomes and buds ripen waiting for the right time to chop. Smell is getting stronger everday. She has a nice fade going to. I plan on harvesting in 4 days might take it to week 10.
