Seed starts it's life in a wet paper, inside a ziploc. After successful germination, the seedling will be moved into a nursery sleeve that contains Build-a-Soil Light. The seedlings are generally coved with a plastic water bottle to keep humidity up until transplant.
Picture is of Day 7, Directly after 'transplant'. Full nursery sleeve placed into 5 gallon of coco when tap root hits bottom of sleeve.
When moving into the coco coir with the organic soil nursery sleeve, some plants tend to have some issues over others. Some burnt tips on the first true leaves. Moved to watering with halo around day 12.
Day 22. Started leaf tucking around week 3. I don't like to hard train plants at all, I believe they will grew best unstressed. Could tell that this one is going to put on a bit more stretch than the others in the ten, so it gets trained a little more.
Day 31. Cantina is tallest in the tent at this point. Started watering 3 times a day, probably could have started 3 times a day sooner. Started to LST by bending the main cola under some leaves, like a hard leaf tuck, I guess.
Day 39. Cantina Band dominated stretch with explosive vertical growth. I tried to LST, but every time I think I would get a good canopy, the next day there was a new "main cola". Started to change nutrient dose, first time moving up to 4grams per gallon of Jacks A.
Flower is fully under way, and stacking some nice frosty buds but fighting high DLI near 50 in spots. Not horrible and it takes the stress without much issue. Was expecting smaller buds with the internodal spacing, but am pleasantly surprised. Started reducing nitrogen.
Tall but chunky buds taking structure. A little light burn. Had to use an adjustable rope clip to pull the base stem from falling inward on the other plants 2 days after this photo, dropped the DLI from 43 to 38 by moving it a couple inches outward. Dropping nitrogen again.
Hints of a little color on the buds. Jacks part B is down to 1 gram per gallon across the entire garden. Augustus is showing decent "fade". Drastically reducing nitrogen. Not many leaves so defoliation wasn't a huge factor, only pulling off lowers that started dying or for airflower.
Getting close to the end, buds have started to swell nicely, less than a week left. You can definetly see the weeks of drastically reduced nitrogen taking their effect on the entire plant. No ambering, and about 20% clear trichomes still. Carefully removing maybe 10% leaves every 5 days.
Fuel, pine and fruit. Tall and chonky. It's so hard waiting for the right moment to chop. I'm a big fan of chopping early with very few amber trichomes. Started to see a couple trichomes mid way down so it was time to pull! 24 hrs before chop I'll give it a final big defoliation and not water 12 hrs prior to chopping
Sour, pine, lemon, touch of mint. Creamy on the exhale. Very 'behind the eyes' effect.
This one didn't have any issue until late when it tried falling towards the middle of the tent. Great bud to leaf ratio and a good yield. I'd suggest training as the colas seem to want to grow tall and tight.
Total Weight = 343 dry grams.
Total add to 393, Subract Grove bags weight 30 and 20 grams to product total.. Will probably just zero out the bag weight moving forward
