New strains micro hunt

Plants are lolipopped and ready to flower. Believe it or not they are the same plants that I got burned with insecticide. The ones that I asked about in grow questions . They grew out of the mutation ;) I’ve added some photos form early veg to show how bad the situation was. I was battling small thrips invasion and rolled out a tad too strong cannons. I’ve probably measured a little bit too much of ipm. The growth tips got completely burned on most of the young ones. Some of them started to grow these strange mutated leaves. The other ones got stalled completely. After some time they started to grow tiny new shoots from under the cotyledon leaves from the stem cells. It’s just amazing how resilient these plants are. Thing to remember there is always hope and things can get better. On the other hand I’m curious how it will affect them in flower, if this incident had a permanent effect on their genome. Had to remove one coco jambo. I have problem that keeps coming back with anesia. I’ve had it with dankberry, chimera cut and now with coco jambo. Some plants are growing dwarf like, very short, very light green, compact with extremely tight internodes. She wasn’t drinking much and wasn’t growing with the pace of the rest of the girls. So we are left with seven plants but they will fill this space easily. It just the first week of flower. 14.02 first day of 12 hour light period.

Installed a net. Removed some lower growth. 23.02 Vpd corrected. Coco jambo is drinking less then the rest. Installed a regulated dripper for it. Remember to keep checking on it cause they tend to malfunction. Hope it will start drinking more and get its 2lph dripper back. 💚💚💚🍀 25.02 Coco Jumbo back on a regular dripper. They really picked up on the right environment. Light at 480w. This time around i will experiment with lower level of light in 120x120 tents.

Tried to run a lamp at 650 watts unfortunately it was getting to hot in the tent. So this run will probably be a test run off mostly 480 watts. I think 550 led would be a sweet spot, but I don’t have an idea of how to run it like this. Maybe I will buy a new lamp that is fully adjustable. I removed some of the biggest fan leaves that shaded lower branches. It was kind of early at 16-17 day of flower. I hope it will halt the stretch a little and let the lower branches catch up a bit. Blue zushi no 1 and b-45 no 3 are the most eye catching right now with thick branches and big flowers forming. Immediately after removing some leaves they started to point the leaves upwards. I think it’s clearly a stress response. Slight praying is a good sign but very upward leaf position clearly indicate some kind of problem. 4.03 Blue zushi #1 is clearly a beast, not to tall, thick stems, huge balls of early flowers. Aroma is insane straight up skittles with extra twist, just amazing. 💚 B-45 on the other hand has some deepest purple hues I’ve seen so far. I think she’s going to be a true looker.

Defoliation finished by 9.03 Will let them grow unbothered for the next 3 weeks. Mayby will throw a second net in week 5.

Installed a second net at day 30. They should be on cruise control until the end. Defoliated just a little bit. Will probably remove some more lower leaves I the coming days. I’m very happy how the canopy turned out. Although I’ve been left with 7 plants. If they were similar, 9 plants with 4 main branches woould be perfect in this 4x4 space. For 5x5 it would be 12 plants 4 main branches. That’s my next goal I think.

All good. Some discrepancies in terms of water consumption but nothing to be too concerned about.

All good. Ripening process. I think they’ll need 60-63 days. Blue Zushi has amazing terps but the stability is very poor. 3 beans , 3 completely different phenos and completely different terpene profiles. Have 3 more growing in nursery. But wouldn’t recommend a big run with these. But there could be a winner to be hunted.

So think by far the best of the bunch is one pheno of b-45. Insane structure, just the right amount of internodal spacing, huge nugs definitely bigger than golf balls. Tons of frost and very nice kush/citrus terps. Not to mention deep purple colours on the buds and the leaves despite not lowering the temps. Very curious to see what she will bring to the scales but I’m pretty sure she’s above 120g. True winner. Got her clones going and hope the clones will maintain the quality despite stress. Had some quality deterioration happen for some clones, but did my share of mistakes and learned some lessons. I am disappointed sa far in blue Zushi form Dutch passion, very different plants. One pheno is completely like purple lemonade form fastbuds. Terps are 1:1. I like the green leaves, purple buds combo. But it’s definitely not a skittles smell. Have a great Easter everyone. Cheers
