Guess we'll see

Beans I have 4 chocolate mint OG, 4 zombie death fucks, 1 fire OG, and 1 super glue in here. I think I have a plan to flower 3 CMOG and 3 ZDF and have a mother of each strain left over. Space and timing could turn this into an absolute shit show. I've been going against the grain and doing things no beginner should do according to everything I've read since my 1st grow a year ago. Began with 2 plants, 2 strains, 1 tent and scissors for defoliating. A year later I got 20 plants, 5 strains, 3 tents and 10 pairs of scissors I can never fucking find lol. Think I may have bit off more than I can chew this time. Guess we'll see....hahaha

Beans I'm all over the place with what my gameplan is in here. Want to experiment with pot size and difference in yield. Also trying out stakes for training/support so I have better access to all the plants. Cut the stakes so that the short 1s are height gauges for where id like to keep my height during veg and just train them out not up. Long stakes are right around the max height I can handle. Multifunctional and so far I dig it. Transplanted the zdg cmog in the little pots into 3gal bags. Gonna do an experiment with pot size and yield to see if 5gal are worth the trouble. Got 5, 3, 1.7gal pots with 1 of each strain in them. Should be a decent indicator of the difference the pot makes. Recent events led me to a situation where my monster cropped clones got transplanted and some are staying in here. Just until they can find a job and move out. I've got quite the mess going...if I can make it thru this somehow I swear I will never do this again😇🙏....(It will be slightly different and probably about 4 weeks from now)

Beans Day 1-So I have no clue what day I started this so I've decided its a new week. Upgraded my lighting in this set up and did some training. Also fed them all. This is my 1st advanced nutrients grow so I'm curious how it will compare. Day 3-fed advanced trio 4ml per gallon, 1ml of floralicous plus, 2.5ml armor si and 2.5ml cal mag Day 6- h2o 1 gallon. Rearranged to make room. Back to the original set up. Day 7- h2o and did some major defoliating. Mostly for height control but also getting a head start on prepping them for flower. Gotta stall another couple weeks or just start them all where they are and split em up when the other tent opens.

Beans Day 1- just let them chill today. Need to work on my training before the weekend is over. Gonna try to fill my space completely with Zdf and cmog and see if I can get 8oz of each. Then gonna do my random assortment of clones together in my other 4x4 and hopefully pull at least another Lb. I'll be shocked if it happens but in theory it sounds reasonable. Day 2- light feeding, 1 gallon of water with nutrients as listed in this weeks entry Day 3- 2 gal of water:6.3-6.4ph. Spring is here so I took some preventative measures against mites or other bugs. Diatomaceous earthed the whole floor ofhe tent along with the plants themselves and all along the outside edge. I got something for their asses year this year. Day 4- did some work training and took the highest point down from 26" to 23" minus 1 branch I'm probably gonna chop n clone anyway. Put the 2 colored lights in today as well. Hoping the way I set it up with give definitive results on how pot size impacts yield and also how the same strain varies given the different spectrum. I'm tempted to begin flowering in a few days then move the 1s I planned on having in my other tent once I've harvested what's in there. Day 5- watered with 6.5ph water. No additives. Day 6- looked at them for a sec but nothing needed attention. Will feed next watering

Beans Day 1- watered lightly. Didn't feel like messing with it so i did the minimum Day 2-🚫 Day 3- watered then realized I needed to feed them. No it has to wait Day 4- still too wet to feed today Day 5- fed advanced trio at 10ml per gallon of each and added 1ml of floralicous plus. Day 6-🚫 Day 7- 2 gal of h2o+ .5 tsp armor si+1 tsp CaliMagic per gallon 400-425ppm 6.2, 6.5 ph. Trained a couple chocolate mint og's that were out of control. Lst+supercropping, took off some big fan leaves to slow taller branches and thinned out some branches I felt were unnecessary. Got the cuttings in water over night, possibly for 2-5 nights if I'm not lazy. Try a new method of cloning that's extremely simple and low maintenance and am u12hr night begins at lights out.

Beans Humidity is out of control. Carbon filter is plugged up, ordered replacement. Humidity was regularly 70% or higher. May need another fan too. Getting worried I may have a disaster on my hands. Hopefully I can keep it together🤞

Beans Day 1- watered Day 2- 😴 Day 3- 😴 Day 4- I need to feed tent 1 tomorrow. Gonna up the nutes from last week since they dont seem to be getting caught up. Can see 1st signs of flowering so I'm gonna experiment a bit with additives and see if I can see a noticeable winner or possibly no difference at all. Day 5- Fed tent#1 14ml advanced trio, 1ml floralicous +, .6ml mammoth p. 1/8tsp flower fuel per/gal. Tent#2 got 2.5ml armor si, 5ml tiger bloom, .6ml mammoth p/gal. Pulled each plant out and cleaned up the bottoms and middles, washed trays and gave a very light dusting diatomaceous earth on underside of leaves. Hoping that will keep any spider mites that think fucking with me again this year will be fun, dead as shit and disappointed. Got a bunch of cuts for clones now too. That's gonna be tomorrow me's problem though lol. Day 6- 🚫 Day 7- well I'll be a son of a bitch...guess what I found? Spider mites. Got to try out my new eradication method I thought up months ago using diatomaceous earth and an air compressor. (Almost a week later and I cant find a mite anywhere 😁) STEP 1- Turn off your carbon filter so u dont plug it up then dust the hell out of everything with diatomaceous earth. I wanted it to look like a thick fog and let the fans blow it all around. I'd go fog it back up every 10-15 minutes for an hr or so. STEP 2- Starting with the worst, pull each plant out of the tent and blow off with 60psi (4bar) compressed air(see video) STEP 3- Inspect the plant and blow off any mites u find with the air gun. I used a LED flashlight to make it easy to see them. STEP 4- After the plant appears mite free give another dusting of diatomaceous earth.(see video) STEP 5- clean tent. Vacuum up all the DE and blow dust out of lights. STEP 6- Put plants back in the tent and start your carbon filter if u have 1. In theory this should take care of current mites and any eggs that hatch. Check daily and repeat steps 2-4 as necessary.

Beans Day 1- fell asleep early from my battle with the mites the night before. Needed to water 🤭. Day 2- watered with additives. Terpenator, flower fuel, tigerbloom, molasses Day 3- fed 15ml advanced trio Day 4- 🚫 Day 5- fed 10ml trio + additives leaves still looked too light. Planned to water today instead Day 6-watered with molasses, terp, floralicous+ Day 7- watered lightly, no additives. Found mites in both other tents so I tried my hurricane of razor blades technique. Seems to have worked much better than any other method I've tried.

Beans Day 1-i have been lazy and not watering until there's runoff up to this point so I'm giving just water even tho they look hungry until I can get the runoff tested and make sure I not screwing myself . Day 2-watered no run of though Day 3- got my head outta my ass and finally did tent 2. I'll post a pic of the results. ZDF appears to be a lighter feeder than the rest. Looks good to me other than that. End of week 8 I'd like to see them down below 300. Let's see if I can pull it off. Day 4- tent 1 run off looks fine as well. Not feeding the little guy in the middle for a few more waterings or I might flush it a little bit. I'll post a pic. Day 5- fed/watered/ph, based on the #s from yesterday. Plants looked very happy Day 6- 🚫 Day 7- tent 1:molasses, flower fuel, h2o Tent 2: h2o. Buds have fattened up a bit. This is where I always think the buds look bigger than any of my others have been at this point of the cycle. They always end up about the size. Lol

Beans This week was rough. Super bummed out about losing my 4 superglues and getting my ass handed to me by spider mites everyday. It's my own fault tho. I put myself in this position and I will get to the finish line. I wanted to get as much experience as possible in a short amount of time and I feel I did that. Now it's time to scale it back and focus on the little things. If all these make it to harvest that will put me at 32 plants harvested from 8 cycles in 15 months. I feel that's a respectable amount of work for a newbie.

Beans The battle continues as the finish line approaches. I might be able to at least walk away from this 1 feeling like it was an even match instead of a loss. Sorry I haven't been doing daily updates the last couple weeks. I've been very busy and may have also been pouting a bit lol. At this point I'm just trying to finish strong, regroup, then get back to it.

Beans Day 1- going to water and check runoff to determine whether I will feed again or begin to flush. Pretty sure at least 2 have had their last meal. Curious to see how well I juggle harvesting 5 strains that will probably all be ready at different times. Guess we'll see soon enough. Day 2- had to get ready for a camping trip, only got runoff in 1 tent tested. ZDF was much higher than the others. Day 3-5, camping/somebody watered as needed while I was gone Day 6- watered and didnt bother checking run off in the other tent. I'm just gonna go ahead and flush now anyway. I'll check it next week. Day 7- sick

Beans —

Beans They look about ready to me. Another couple days I'm thinking. Debating on days of dark to finish em off. 2or 3 days...? Should I go for it? Depending on ppm tomorrow I might.

Beans I wanted to get into breeding eventually. Not right now, not like this but shit happened anyway. Hopefully I get some righteous new strains out of it.

Beans I have 3 seeds from this strain going right now. Calling them chocolate mint motherfuck. Thought the name was quite fitting on multiple levels.
