First Timer Bagseed Grow

themango Day 13 (Feb 17 '19): First timer here. Not really sure what I'm doing but researching a ton as I go along. I had germ'd five seeds... of which, 3 were successful. These were seeds that I collected from random bags over the years so honestly... I have no idea what strains these plants are (and I was honestly surprised that some of them actually ended up popping). These are obviously regular, unfeminized seeds so chances are I will not still have three plants by the end of this. Transplanted all three to 5 gallon buckets from solo cups last night with Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil sprinkled with micchorizae. #1 and #3 have developed some yellow spots on the bottom leaves since transplant and #2's two bottom-most leaves are completely droopy and yellow. I'm not sure what's going on but I'm suspecting it's transplant shock? Since it didn't start until after transplant. Regardless, I'm doing a water flush in case there's a problem with the nutrients. All three seem to be otherwise thriving with all other leaves vibrant green and happy-looking. - Day 14 (Feb 18 '19) - Now I suspect that the droopy and yellow leaves on #2 (Blossom) are due to heat stress. Got a new indoor temp reader and it said it was nearly 90 degrees in the tent. Got more fans going now and it has come down to about 80. Humidity is a bit high as well so I ordered a dehumidifer which should be here tomorrow. All plants seem to be growing again now since transplant.

themango Day 15 (2/20/19): All seems well and they are growing at a rapid pace. Blossom (#2) has three nodes now so I'm just waiting on Adhira (#1) and Dulcie (#3) to grow a little bit more before I fim. Day 19 (2/24/19): Went ahead and fimmed Blossom and Dulcie. I'm not sure about fimming Adhira as she seems to be a very bulky plant as it is. I'm not sure I like the pheno. Very stocky with huge leaves that fall because the stalk can't hold the whole plant up. I wouldn't be upset if it ended up being male... which it very well might be, as I've been seeing what I think are some balls-y looking pre-flowers. Day 20 (2/25/19): Things looking a bit droopy with Blossom and Dulcie after the fim.

themango Day 21 (2/26/19): Top dressed with Aurora Innovation's Uprising Grow and water pH'd to 6.3. Also gave a good feeding of compost tea yesterday. I am by no means an expert but I'm pretty sure I see white pistils popping through on Dulcie and "balls" popping through on Adhira. I will keep Adhira going until I am certain it's male. Blossom still shows no signs of sex (which I'm hoping means it's a female since I've heard they usually take a little longer to reveal themselves). Adhira is 5in, Blossom is 9in, and Dulcie is 6in. Day 25 (3/2/19): Having some problems with humidity. I live in an *extremely* humid area so I figured this was going to be a problem come the start of spring time. I bought a dehumidifier and it is working but not as well as I would like it to. Without the dehumidifier, the humidity is usually around 78-80%. With it, it goes down to about 62%. Which from what I've read, is still way too high. Probably going to have to invest in another. On the plus side, Blossom might be sprouting female pistils? They are very small but I'm hopeful that's what they are lol.

themango Day 30 (3/7/2019): Confirmed that Adhira is male a few days ago and took it out back :'(. RIP. Otherwise, the other two are thriving. Probably going to be fimming again today. Blossom is 15in and Dulcie is 12in. Growing up so fast! Day 31 (3/8/2019): Did a second fimming today.

themango Day 37 (3/14/19): Pretty much on autopilot at this point. Blossom is 18 in and Dulcie is 16 in. Will probably be flipping to flower at the end of week 7.

themango Day 47 (3/25/2019): Flipped to flowering a week earlier than I said I would lol. So far so good. Dulcie has really taken off and is now a smidgen taller than Blossom somehow. My nutrients of choice for the flowering phase are Advanced Nutrients Big Bud and Fox Farm Tiger Bloom (every third watering) and have Advanced Nutrients Bud Candy and Aurora Innovations Terp Tea on standby for later weeks... but they are having some nitrogen overload (Blossom especially) so I am holding off on nutrients for a bit and doing a water flush.
