RC Pro-Am

gdogfunk I dropped seeds in water for a few days until I saw a decent taproot or start of one and then placed them in a jiffy pellet and in a humidity dome under my shelf T5 seed/clone system. I’ve read good things about this strain and I’ve been looking forward to growing this plant for awhile. She will have a tent partner to grow into a healthy SCROG and I hope to reap a bountiful harvest!

gdogfunk I had to start a new seed. The helmet stayed on and after I pried it off after a few days, it ultimately withered. I used a different germination method this time. Soaked seed in URB for 25 minutes and popped it into a pH watered jiffy pellet. They were right. Seeds pops in 2 days!!

gdogfunk I finally harvested this tent yesterday, so I was able so clean it out and make room for the vegging babes until the second tent is ready.

gdogfunk Day 17: I harvested my tent yesterday and cleaned this tent out for the springtime Dinafem SCROG! I’ll be transplanting to 1gl fabric pots soon. They always start slow and then explode. These babies are looking real good in this tent. Day 18: I decided to transplant to 1gal so the stems would have better support and start a better root structure. It was a little earlier than I normally would, but they are behind a bit from where I wanted to be, so I figure get the roots going in a better soil environment.

gdogfunk Day 24: she’s very much enjoying her new 1gal home. Huge growth in the last week. I’ve also kept watering to a minimum this round to make sure I don’t over water. I rubbed the stalk today and she smells delicious already! Day 26: topped her down leaving 4 nodes (counting the first set of single-fingered serrated leaves).

gdogfunk Day 32: She’s responding well to her new 7gal home and is growing like a weed now! Day 35: LST round 1! I’ll let her grow for a few days and do the second topping.

gdogfunk Day 39: I did the second topping the other day and they are responding very well!

gdogfunk Day 46: did some more LST tie downs to spread the canopy. Just a few more weeks and back under the screen! Day 50: I already had to tie them back down a second time. They are growing like crazy now!

gdogfunk Day 53: the plants are getting super bushy. I’ll be installing the screen soon and letting them do their thing for a few weeks before flipping. Day 57: after adjusting the LST for a few days, it was finally time to install the screen. I’ll let them do their thing for a bit before flipping.

gdogfunk Day 59: I believe I was having a small heat issue, so I turned off the space heater in the room and the temps have lowered to a reasonable range. Day 60: things are looking much better with the lower temps. It’s wont me long now before the flip!

gdogfunk Day 67: Slow going’s with remo. The plant I was most excited about is performing the worst out of 4 plants. I’m going to veg another week and hopefully get a bit more growth before flipping.

gdogfunk Day 74: Flower time, at last!!! This is a day I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. Let’s see how this stinky beauty will stretch in the coming weeks.

gdogfunk Day 81: starting flower week 2 and the stretch is on! I had to do some serious tucking today to spread everything out. She is so stinky, my hands smell like I just harvested. 3/4 gallon every other day seems to be adequate for her and starting early bloom nutes this week.

gdogfunk Day 89: into the third week of flower now and they are really flourishing! I’ll be defoliating some more later this week. The tent continues to increase in aroma and really smacks me in the face when I open the tent. I’ve had to raise the light to accommodate the stretch. Pistils are forming and things are getting exciting!!

gdogfunk Day 95: I did a major defol last week to get as much light to the buds as possible. The tent continues to smell better and better! The buds are definitely underway now and the excitement continues to build for this legendary strain! Still watering 3/4 gal every other day with a water/feed schedule.

gdogfunk Day 102: the buds are well underway now and everything is Iooking and smelling great! It’s been very rainy here and my humidity is higher than I’d like, but the plant seems to not mind at all. With plenty of airflow, I think I’ll be ok.

gdogfunk Day 109: wow wow wow! The stench in the tent is absolutely amazing! There is so much resin even on the leaves. Just moving and tucking leaves leaves my hands extremely sticky! Only a few more weeks left!

gdogfunk Day 116: Entering the 7th week of flower now and she is packing on the trichomes. There is so much glistening goodness, even on the leaves! Only a few more weeks now. Trichomes are still clear with no cloudiness yet. I upped the MammothP from 2ml/gal to 4ml/gal. I should have been at 2.5-3ml, but I forgot to increase the dosage. Feeding EH late flower nutes this week.

gdogfunk Day 123: A couple more weeks! I'm starting to see a few cloudy trichomes, but not enough to be in the harvest window yet. She is a thing of beauty and a sight to behold! And smell! Day 125: Upon further inspection, I believe this babe is ready for flushing! There is already some amber and I'm going to plan on chopping in a week!

gdogfunk Day 130: I did a big flush on day 127 and got the runoff ppm's down below 300ppm. I was flushing with pH'd 147ppm water (well water) and I suspect the residue in the collection pan is bringing the ppm's up a little. I fed 1ml EH nutes for final flushing and will be giving water only until I harvest on day 136/137. She smells absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to get her dried and cured and smoke some of this amazing looking strain! Almost there!!
