Purple Ghost Candy described as: retains the OG fuel-like scent while having flavours of spice and earth with notes of lemon and other fruit. The effect that is strongly physical with balanced mental stimulation. A perfect strain for down-time relaxation.
FuelD.OG described as: Fuel D.OG has a more intense OG Kush flavour than its Chemdog parent revealing pronounced diesel with citric lemon and grapefruit scents. The effect is intensely relaxing evolving into a long-lasting narcotic state making it perhaps best left until the evening or for lazy days with no pressing tasks.
2/5/25 - Both seeds popped in the paper towel method so i transferred them to solo cups with holes in the bottom and filled with Fox Farms Happy Frog soil that i soaked about 3 days ago and let dry out some, gave the tops a light mist and set them under the light
2/7/25 - both seeds have sprouter through the top of the soil, i added a humidity done to the top of them just to have the extra humidity. PPFD is 350.
2/8/25 - Counting today as day one of veg but still deff seedlings. They will stay in the solo cups until transplant into the diy earth boxes I have made out of 12 gallon totes, I'm estimating each earthbox will hold about 9 gallons of soil and will be using a cover for the soil when transplanting. This is gonna be an all organics run using promix hp, worm castings and perlite as my medium and using Gaia green amendments. Light right now is at 350 ppfd and just light watering with a spray bottle right now. Gonna let them dry some and will do a bottom water to let them drink what they want. Working on getting a weekly time lapse set up
2/11/25 - watered the plants today as the top soil was getting dry. A solo cup filled with soil weighs 189 grams so I watered the plants until they were at 220grams
2/18/25 - Watered plants until they reached a weight of 220 grams
2/19/25 - Just transplanted the plants into my DIY Earthboxes. The soil mix consists of ProMix HP, worm castings, and perlite, enriched with Gaia Green dry amendments. I applied Mykos directly to the roots and the transplant hole for better root development. Since the soil was already moist from filling the container i didn't water. To help retain moisture and reduce evaporation, I placed a trash bag over the top, cutting an X in the center to feed the plant through.
2/21/25 - watered about a liter of plain water from the top to moisten the soil. water was ph'd to 6.5
2/24/25 - Gave them 1 liter each from the top with fermented plant extract at 1tbsp per gallon of water and then fill the res with a little under 2.5 gallons all PH'd at 6.0, added a small heater outside the tent to raise the temp inside a bit. The girls are starting to take off in growth over the last couple days after transplant. I leave for vacation in 4 days so lets hope the homemade earthbox works.
2/27/25 - Leaving for vacation first thing in the morning so i will be doing a top water tonight at about 1 gallon per plant and they will also get the fermented plant extract at 1tbsp per gallon. then i will be filling the res with water until full, plants tops have been tied down for some LST and branches have been tucked but ill just have to let them grown for the next week. No one will be taking care of the plants so hopefully the SIP last for the week, if not they will get a nice dry back and get watered once i return.
No real updates, was on vacation all week. Got one picture of them this week but they seemed healthy all week so I wasn't real worried. They had some major growth this week
3/9/25 - Got back from vacation and the plants got HUGE! Went from 5 inches to over 13 inches in 1 week so the SIP system definitely worked. The needed a major defoliation and of course I forgot to take a picture before I started. The light was also way to close of that week I was gone, it was probably 6-7 inches above the top of the plant and it looks like they started getting some light bleaching towards the top. I lifted the light and they are now at 530 ppfd. I filled the reservoirs this morning as they were dry with plain water PH'd at 6.2. The defoliation went smooth, the Purple Ghost Candy had some massive leaves measuring 7+ inches. I also added some training clips on some branches and will probably trellis a little later this week as well as top dress here in a day or two with 2 tsp per gallon of soil to start and see how the plants react, may have to go to 3 tsp per gallon. That's going to be 18 tsp then I will add about .5 inches of worm castings over the dry amendments.
3/10/25 - Topped with some dry amendments and worm castings and just covered it back
3/11/25 - top watered 1 liter each, with some fermented plant extract @1 tbsp per gallon, just to help with the nutrient break down
3/12/25 - Scrogged the tent, will be checking and adjusting regularly to get it to look nice, this is my first scrog so we will see how it goes. If you have any tips let me know!
I bottom watered a PGC plant and it stretched too tall into the light. At the time, I bottom watered way too early and didn’t let the roots establish in the soil as much. I would recommend letting them get a couple more weeks in top watering and letting it dry out, then switch over to bottom watering.
Good looking out. Unfortunately I leave for vacation in 5 days and don’t trust anyone to water my plants so I’ll be filling the SIP this week, I would like to wait another week or so but plans change lol.
