Germination

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 03/05/25*** Started the germination process, all 3 should hopefully pop in the next 2 to 5 days, paper towel & ceramic plates at a PH of 6.0! Put a stem to the side of the plate so I don't lose track of which order they are in ! Strains are: Slimer (Pakistani Chitral Kush x Ghost OG) - Crossbone Genetics Skywalker Ghost (Skywalker OG x Ghost OG) - Crossbone Genetics Gravely Ghost (Planet of the Grapes x Ghost OG) - Crossbone Genetics Strawberry Dawg Pie (Strawberry Pie x Chemdawg) - Butterbean Birdseed Great count on the Crossbone Genetics! Ordered the Ghost OG boxset & each individual package I've opened so far came with an extra seed, they also threw in a 5 pack of Dirty Taxi for free! Low yield on the Strawberry Dawg Pie last go which was entirely my fault... Have decided to run it again & I'm hoping for a proper outcome this time around now that I got everything dialed in the new setup, it could have been the best out of the 3 last run & I really like the terps! Cleaned the tent + all equipment today while I wait for the seeds to germinate! Also printed & laminated labels for the pots, lowered the light & took a PPFD reading, everything is good to go! ***UPDATE 03/06/25*** 2/4 seeds have already popped just waiting for the tap roots to grow a little bit before getting them into the pots! Hoping all 4 are ready to go late tonight or early tomorrow morning! ***UPDATE 03/07/25*** All 4 seeds have germinated & are now in pots, gave each plant roughly 250ML of dechlorinated tap water at a PH of 5.9 The Skywalker Ghost seems to be a bit behind vs the other 3 but decided to drop it in the dirt today anyways, it should do just fine :P Will throw a humidifier & hygrometer in the tent once the 1st plant has surfaced, will also start day 1 week 1 veg once all 4 plants have surfaced! Light is on a 20/4 schedule & runs from 5am to 1am, once the plants are a couple inches tall they should be in the 250 uMOL range! ***UPDATE 03/10/25*** Gave each plant 250ML of dechlorinated tap water at a PH of 5.9 Moved humidifier into the tent & RH should rise overnight, will move the bigger one in there once my last harvest is dry! Turned the fan I have pointed at the lights ballast down to bring temps up a bit! 3/4 plants have surfaced, am just waiting on the Skywalker Ghost before starting Week 1 Veg!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 03/12/25*** Plants seem to have responded well to yesterdays watering & the Skywalker Ghost is now above soil as well! Temps have been good & RH is on the rise! Was stuck trimming last harvest today & forgot to refill the humidifier, should be able to trim the last plant tomorrow afternoon or Thursday morning & from there will move the bigger humidifier into the tent to maintain 70% - 80% RH ! Will be mainlining again this go, hopefully a better turn out overall this time around now that I got all the equipment dialed in! ***UPDATE 03/13/25*** Everything looking good so far! RH will climb again now that the tent is closed Started the lower clip fan at 4/10 today for some more air circulation, still some calcium dust flying around the tent, 110% grabbing RO at the end of the month & will be able to eliminate this issue entirely before they start to flower! ***UPDATE 03/14/25*** Switching humidifiers around tomorrow morning, RH was at 93% during lights off last night! Temps & RH were pretty good throughout the day today! ***UPDATE 03/15/25*** Medium is still saturated water wise due to lower temps, 250ml per plant has lasted 5 days so far... 3/4 seem to be doing good but the Strawberry Dawg Pie closest to the humidifier has yellowed quite a bit! RH was high today at 82% & water beads collected around the ridges of it's leaves as well, dabbed it dry with paper towel & should be ok for now! Switching humidifiers out momentarily so I have that auto on/off function ***UPDATE 03/16/25*** Plants should be good water wise right up until tomorrow morning/afternoon at which point I will introduce a very small amount of nutrients! Temps have been good so far today & RH is currently on the rise! Just realized I double posted on day one & quickly fixed the week so everything is correct! ***UPDATE 03/17/25*** Early morning update, medium is still saturated & I will probably hold off until tomorrow morning/afternoon before adding more water! ***UPDATE 03/18/25*** Plants seem happy today! Will still be another day or two before I can apply that 1st feed! A low dose of Microbes/Carbs early on really does make a difference, these look like they are a couple days behind in comparison to my last grow, should have hit them with 0.1ml/L of each right from the get go!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 03/19/25*** Plants seem to be doing well! Might need to water later on tonight if not early tomorrow morning at which point I will introduce that 1st feed ! Temps & RH have been pretty good today & RH will slowly climb towards 75% 80% throughout the day! ***UPDATE 03/20/25*** Gave each plant 250ml of dechlorinated tap water mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.0 Some serious growth overnight as the 1st true sets of leaves start to come in! 2nd time running Strawberry Dawg Pie & this plant is very sensitive to overwatering & light intensity! Will have to adjust everything accordingly & cater to its needs throughout the entirety of the grow! Rearranged the plants a bit so they are sitting directly underneath the lights bars Temps & RH have been good today, RH is once again on the climb! ***UPDATE 03/21/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays feed! Temps randomly decided to drop to 14c inside the house last night! Managed to even everything out early this morning & am back on track, RH is on the climb again as well! ***UPDATE 03/22/25*** Plants are looking very happy today! Will be topping as soon as I see 4 lower branches in order to mainline! Humidity was close to 90% overnight & had to dab water droplets off plants when the light turned on, has warmed up outside & noticed the humidifier I'm currently using has not produced any white dust whatsoever & I have been filling it with tap water since day 1, am gonna continue using this one right up until next payday at which point will be grabbing an RO system as well as a new humidifier that can be set up outside of the tent for some extra room! ***UPDATE 03/23/25*** So far so good! Should be able to top 3/4 plants early tomorrow morning, the Strawberry Dawg Pie might still need an extra day or two! Went ahead & circled the 4 branches I'm after in order to mainline, last crop started flowering around the 21 day mark, these ones seem like they're a little bit behind schedule vs the last ones, I want to start the process as soon as possible! Will have to be careful with the water as well, today would be the day I would normally do that but pots are still saturated, should be able to water again tomorrow afternoon or early morning Tuesday! Temps & RH have been good so far today, I tend to get an average 23c 70% RH while the tent is closed now that the snow has melted & furnace is off! ***UPDATE 03/24/25*** Topped all 4 plants today! Pots are still saturated & no need to water just yet! The Slimer is gonna be a full on beast by the looks of it! Finger leaves basically stretch end to end in a 3 gal airpot! Temps & RH have been good so far today as well, RH once again on the climb to 70% now that the tent is closed! Removed some photos from yesterday to keep the page uniform :P ***UPDATE 03/25/25*** Nothing really needed to be done today, plants are gonna need water later on tonight or early tomorrow morning!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 03/26/25*** Gave each plant 350ml of dechlorinated tap water at a PH of 6.0 Rearranged the plants so they are directly underneath the bars of light above! The Strawberry Dawg Pie is looking much better at the start of week 3, hoping no more issues with water & light! Temps & RH have been good so far today, RH is on the climb to 70%! ***UPDATE 03/27/25*** Plants responded fairly well to yesterdays watering! Little bit of droop but should perk back up over the next 12 hours or so, 350ml next feed will be best vs jumping right to 500ml, am gonna wait until they have completely dried out before feeding again! Will keep an eye on all 4 plants over the next couple of days, want to remove large fan leaves prior to mainlining! Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today as well! ***UPDATE 03/28/25*** Not much needed to be done today, will probably defoliate in the next day or two & begin mainlining! Temps & RH have been good so far today! ***UPDATE 03/29/25*** Pots are still saturated & I will not have to water for another day or two, some clawing on new growth even at 350ml per plant! Should be able to defoliate & begin LST tomorrow afternoon! Temps & RH have been good so far today, RH will slowly climb back up to 70% over the next hour or two now that the door to the tent is closed! ***UPDATE 03/30/25*** Nothing needs to be done today, will be feeding tomoroow afternoon alongside defoliation & LST! ***UPDATE 03/31/25*** Gave each plant 250ml of dechlorinated tap water mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.2 All 4 plants have been clawing so I decided to dial it back a bit water wise for now Defoliated, topped & have started LST! RH has been good today but temps have been quite low! ***UPDATE 04/01/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays feed! Still a bit of clawing but pots are drying up much quicker at 250ml will probably need to water again tomorrow! Some more LST today, had to pinch to soften tissue in order to get the plants anchored down properly! Noticed a couple hairs on the Gravely Ghost, am hoping I still got a bit of time to train & top before flower! RO system showed up today! Got that mounted to a cutting board with L brackets for feet so I can move it around! 5 Gal bucket is currently filling up but is quite a slow process.. Gonna double check with other people who own the unit to see if it's is a normal speed! (Aquatic Life RO Buddie 4-Stage Reverse Osmosis, picture & video above) Checked TDS & is looking like 300ppm ish straight from the tap, RO filtered water is sitting at 4ppm which is good! Temps & Humidity have been pretty good today!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 04/02/25*** Not much can be done today, plants need some more LST but will have to wait until tomorrow after watering so ties will stick in the dirt! Still some slight clawing on all 4 plants but water should be fine from here, will have to throw together a seperate feed for the Strawberry Dawg Pie each feed moving forward as it is very sensitive to the mixture I have been giving them! Figured out what I was doing wrong in regards to Reverse Osmosis! I managed to get the output up to 100ml + per minute by cutting tubing to true size instead of running excess, I also bumped the temp of the water up to luke warm from as cold as it would go not knowing temperature plays a major role in the overall output! What I will do from now on is check temp of the waste water each time I go to use to ensure optimal performance, am pretty sure this was the main issue! Producing 6-8L an hour give or take after making these adjustments! Cleaned all my buckets & pitchers, also cleaned the tubing & air stones for my pump! Water went from 380 ppm to a steady 0 ppm after filtering! Will be trying out RO water for the 1st time early tomorrow morning! Unrelated to this grow but I ended up grabbing some more seeds on payday & am totally covered for the next year or two, my collection is growing fast! MultiverseBeans had 50% off In House Genetics & that was what I originally showed up for, actually managed to hit 6 different promotions on the same order! 11 different freebies on top of my initial purchase!! Decided to go with: Slurricane #7 S1 x6 - In House Genetics Sugarcane x3 - In House Genetics Garlic Storm x3 - In House Genetics Frozen Grapes x3 - In House Genetics Johnny Dang R1 x5 - Ethos Genetics Pillows R1 x5 - Ethos Genetics GMO 8 (Auto) x 3 - Atlas Seeds Freebies: Dark Matter (Auto) x4 - Multiverse Genetics Face Fat (Auto) x4 - Atlas Seeds Mayberry x3 - Bluestar Seed Co Banana Cream Sundae x3 - Atlas Seeds Alien Blues x3 - LaPlata Labs Ghost OG (Auto) x3 - LaPlata Labs Train Wreck (Auto) x3 - Humbolt Seed Co Wedding Cake (Auto) x4 - Atlas Seeds Acid Snow (Auto) x3 - Speed Run Seeds Gorilla Zkittlez (Auto) x1 - Fast Buds Cap Junkie x End Game #3 x10 - Ethos Genetics Should have everything in the next week or two am stoked!! Will be running the GMO 8 & Acid Snow auto wise next run alongside 2 others from Crossbone Genetics I haven't decided upon yet! ***UPDATE 04/03/25*** Gave each plant 500ml of aerated RO mixed with 0.25ml/L calmag at a PH of 5.95 3 drops of PH down had 2L of water sitting at 5.95 from 7.80! Will have to be very careful with the PH down moving forward! Was able to anchor some branches down a little bit better today but I'm gonna hold off on defoliation for a day or two & see how the plants respond to new water as well as the sudden jump from 250ml to 500ml 1st time these ones have seen the garden sprayer & each 500ml was evenly distributed across the medium, went a little bit heavier towards the center! Temps & RH have been good so far today, humidifier is just about to run out & I'm gonna leave it off until tomorrow afternoon just in case, 500ml might have been a bit too much, feel like low humidity could help in this case if I start to run into problems! ***UPDATE 04/04/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays watering! 500ml each seems to be ok for now which is good! Will be dialing back on the nutrients in regards to the Strawberry Dawg Pie, a very sensitive plant & I'm currently dealing with a classic case of nitrogen toxicity! The plant should be fine long term, Nitrogen toxicity is the easiest one to work through out of the 3 in my opinion so I'm not all too worried about it, will mix a seperate batch of nutrients for it next feed & drop the Bonnie down somewhere inbetween 0.10ml/L - 0.20ml/L if I can get another feed in there prior to switching over to Clyde for flower, Bonnie is quite high in Nitrogen content! Thinking I will defoliate tomorrow afternoon & see if I'm able to top again as well! Have no problem leaving these at 8 tops per plant if I run out of time but 16 would be prefered! Average was 24 tops per plant last run which I'm thinking was a tad bit overkill, might see a better yield at 8 or 16 when mainlining autos! Refilled the humidifier & temps/RH have been on point so far today! ***UPDATE 04/05/25*** Went through with defoliation & LST today, will have to wait another day or two before I can top up to 16 but should be doable! Really should have hit these ones with a light feed during week 1 veg, all 4 plants are noticably smaller than the 3 I did last run... Everything was lower this go! Light intensity, air flow, temperature, nutrients & the amount of water I was giving them! Assume I will get much better results mainlining autos if I try & push temps closer to 26c during the vegetative stage, next time around will cut & slit plastic drinking straws so they can be wrapped around the main stem for support as soon as they pop out of the dirt, this will allow me to keep a fan on them very early on, makes for stronger stocks & medium will dry out a lot quicker, should be able to give them more water more frequently without any issues & speed up the vegetative process! All 4 plants are starting flower, the Gravely Ghost is the furthest along out of the 4, not quite sure what to expect just yet, hopefully I end up with a decent yield by the time it's all said & done although things aren't looking all too promising as is! ***UPDATE 04/06/25*** 500ml seems to be working well at the moment! Could water again later tonight but I'm gonna wait until tomorrow morning so I can have them on the same watering schedule as the photoperiods in the 4x4! Will be giving them nutrients tomorrow morning & I'm gonna half Bonnie just to be on the safe side! For tops decided I'm gonna let them grow one more node prior to topping & I will keep the lower growths that are currently there to fill out the center of the plants, there is decent spacing between singular nodes & will be trying to go above 16 afterall, should still have enough time! Temps have been good today, ran low RH throughout most of the day today & is now back on the climb up to 65% Have been taking daily pictures of each individual plant I've grown since I started documenting my grows! Gonna try & throw together some seed to harvest timelapses in Sony Vegas with all the photos! ***UPDATE 04/07/25*** Gave each plant 500ml of aerated RO mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.3, halved Bonnie for this feed due too excess nitrogen! Anchored branches down a little better after feed, want tops towards the edges of the pot prior to spacing them out to make a circle! Temps & RH have been on point today! ***UPDATE 04/08/25*** Plants responded extremely well to yesterdays feed! Very minimal clawing the entire way across the board! LST'd some more early this morning as well! AC decided to run full blast w/o shutting off last night... Temps were 10c during lights off & 13c early on this morning once the light had turned on! Plants didn't seem to mind, furnace should bring everything back up to 23c in the next hour or so! Humidifier is empty & I'm gonna wait for temps to rise before filling again!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 04/09/25*** All 4 plants are in flower, decided I'm gonna leave them at 8 tops per plant due to the rate of growth & where they are currently at Plain watering tomorrow afternoon & from there will be using the nutrient mixture listed above for the remainder of the grow, I might try & bump Clyde up a bit if they respond well to this weeks feed, 2/4 plants have started clawing again but nothing major, shall continue on with 500ml per plant during week 1 flower Medium is somewhat dry & grow ties keep popping out of the dirt, will cut longer ties & LST some more tomorrow! Plan is to gradually bump light intensity towards 600 uMOL over the next week or two as well Temps & RH have been pretty good today, will have RH at 45% towards the end of the week ***UPDATE 04/10/25*** Cut longer grow ties & went through with some more LST Bumped light intensity to where the tallest plant is now receiving 450 uMOL of light, all 4 plants are now inbetween 400 uMOL - 450 uMOL Plain watering later on tonight before lights off, will be 500ml each aerated RO mixed with 0.5ml/L calmag at a PH of 6.3 Temps & humidity are pretty good after this mornings adjustments, temp wise am around 25c & RH is inbetween 45% - 50% Made seed to harvest timelapses for each individual plant I've grown since I've started documenting my grows! Links are at the bottom of each harvest tab! ***UPDATE 04/11/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays watering as well as the bump in light intensity! Grow ties are actually sticking for once which is good, plants are looking great! Still having some issues with the Strawberry Dawg Pie but it has started to bounce back throughout the day Temps & RH have been good today am able to stay under 25c! ***UPDATE 04/12/25*** The Strawberry Dawg Pie is looking much better today! No more clawing but still dark green little bit of nitrogen issues Temps were a bit high today but RH was good Gonna redo all the timelapses I attached to harvest tabs of prior grows, figured out how to fix contrast so it doesn't automatically boost while rendering, they take a while to make, should have links replaced soon! ***UPDATE 04/13/25*** Gave each plant 500ml of aerated RO mixed with nutrients above at a PH of 6.4 Did not have to use PH down with my current mixture, it sits at 6.4 with RO! Temps & RH have been really good today! RH is reading a bit higher than it actually is because hygrometer is sitting in a freshly watered pot, cleaned all the filters in my AC unit & this is how I was able to drop temps! Reuploaded all my seed to harvest videos on youtube after fixing color contrast & adding a background, new links are now attached to each harvest tab of my past grows! ***UPDATE 04/14/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays feed! Gonna grab a good 3 in 1 PH meter towards the end of the month to ensure accurate readings in the future, the Apera GroStar Series GS4 will do PH, EC + PPM & looks like the one that will best suit my needs! Have had problems with water since starting to grow again & have just been running a cheaper Yinmik pen from Amazon that is nearing the end of it's lifecycle, it is fairly accurate but not something I can rely on 100% Want to experiment with a couple of different things next grow now that I'm running RO, mainly want to try & bump the increments on each bottle of nutrients I'm using throughout the grow to see if I end up with better results! Temps & RH have been good today ***UPDATE 04/15/25*** Nothing really needed to be done today Watering day tomorrow & I'm also gonna defoliate a little bit! Temps have been a little cold today & kept RH low in hopes pots will dry out faster

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 04/16/25*** Gave each plant 500ml of aerated RO mixed with 1ml/L calmag at a PH of 6.3 Went through with another light defoliation, removed fan leaves towards the center of the Strawberry Dawg Pie & snipped a couple ends off a few leaves that were blocking bud sites from receiving light on the other plants Want to try & experiment with nutrients this go now that I'm running RO, would like to run the feed chart without halving as im pretty sure it's doable but I'm gonna start slow to be on the safe side of things. everything is a healthy green as is but 500ml per plant every 3 days at this current stage has them drooped right now, am gonna test out the nutrient mixture listed above this next feed but will half everything in a seperate mixture for the Strawberry Dawg Pie, 1ml/L calmag is roughly 220ppm which is a bit too much considering 150ppm is ideal, will adjust accordingly when the time comes & try to get closer to 150ppm! Temps have been good today but have kept RH low in hopes the pots will dry out a little bit quicker, still some calcium dust flying around the tent from the last grow as well, I'm gonna leave the humidifier off in between plain waterings & feed for now, don't want to waste RO in the humidifier when I don't really need too, will try & run a steady 45% RH from there inbetween feed & plain watering so nutrients are absorbed correctly when I go to test out these new increments! ***UPDATE 04/17/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays watering! Double checked light intensity & the tallest plant is currently receiving 540 uMOL, the other 3 are all inbetween 450 & 540, will wait & see if they stretch some more prior to adjusting the light! Photoperiods in the 4x4 responded well to a full feed, has been roughly 36 hours since I fed them & I haven't noticed any new burn or negative symptoms, should be ok to run the increments listed above in the 2x4 when the time comes from what I can see so far! Temps & RH have been good today! ***UPDATE 04/18/25*** Some more LST for the Strawberry Dawg Pie today! Good lateral branching & I should end up with a bunch of tops but I wasn't as lucky with the Ghost OG x's! All 3 x's started flowering earlier than the Strawberry Dawg Pie & is looking like 8 tops per plant minus side branching, was too late with the mainline & yield will probably suffer heavily as a result! The Strawberry Dawg Pie vegged an extra 10 days or so before flowering vs the one I grew last run, went back on that last grow & jotted down light intensity for better results the next time around! Can start them just under 300 uMOL & once they have been topped for mainline is looking like I can push them anywhere inbetween 450 uMOL - 540 uMOL once the 2nd nodes on the new branches start coming in, from there I will just try to maintain those numbers throughout the rest of the grow while pushing closer to 600 uMOL during flower, this Strawberry Dawg Pie is still smaller than the last one even with the extra 10 day veg, was thinking I might try growing a few without topping or mainlining in the future & see how they do! Will try increments listed above during tomorrows feed, hoping everything runs smoothly! Temps & RH have been good today, was able to push higher temps throughout the day so the pots will dry out a little quicker! ***UPDATE 04/19/25*** Gave each plant 666ml of aerated RO mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.3, seperate feed for the Strawberry Dawg Pie it got 500ml mixed with nutrients listed above, halved Clyde & PH was 6.2 Is looking like water & airflow is what I need to manage the entire way across the board! Noticed the Gravely Ghost in the center of the tent is doing great with 0 issues, the other two Ghost OG x's are showing slight burn & I assume this is related to the pots not drying out quick enough prior to the next watering/feed, they are furthest away from the clip fan & the Slimer seems to be doing the worst out of the 3 over in that far corner, is usually the only one still fully perked on watering day! The leaves towards the top on the Slimer & Skywalker Ghost are starting to claw downwards/inwards slightly but nothing major as of yet, with the Slimer I seen the ends of the fan leaves towards the bottom were starting to yellow a bit prior to todays feed although it didn't show up all too well on camera, 1 leaf towards the top left had more severe burn (low to the ground & assume I missed a water droplet that needed to be dabbed up) Moved the clip fan off the ballast & clipped it to the left side of the tent, have it a bit lower than the one adjacent so air is mainly focused on those two plants! The Strawberry Dawg Pie doesn't seem to mind Potassium at full strength but is sensitive to Nitrogen, was going to halve Bud Booster & Sticky Bandit for it this feed but figured I may as well go full feed for now to see if Potassium would be problematic as well, seems to be doing well 14 hours in! Temps & RH have been good today, if temps rise will look into a 3rd fan for the ballast in order to manage! ***UPDATE 04/20/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays feed! Little bit of yellowing on the ridges of the leaves i will keep an eye on, they still seem very happy! Temps & RH should be good today Happy 420 Everyone! ***UPDATE 04/21/25*** 3/4 Plants are drooping a little bit today but no sign of nutrient burn, pots are still fairly saturated & the plants should be perked up right now, my best guess is excess water towards the bottom, will continue to mess around with the fans a little bit today & see what I can do, moved hygrometer out of the pot & sat it on top of the humidifier so air can get underneath the leaves of the Slimer Airpots do work in regards to air pruning but I might try fabric pots the next time around to see if they help with water! Trichs are starting to come in on the Gravely Ghost! Temps & RH have been good so far today ***UPDATE 04/22/25*** Gave each plant 625ml of aerated RO mixed with 0.8ml/L calmag at a PH of 6.5 shortly after taking pictures today The fan leaves on the Slimer have yellowed out quite a bit towards the bottom & a little bit of yellowing towards the top, the other 3 plants seem to be doing fine, may halve bud booster for Slimer next feed! The Strawberry Dawg Pie was drooped pretty heavily today & pot was bone dry 2 knuckles in, decided to try it at the same amount as the others water wise instead of less this watering Readjusted the clip fans & upped the intensity for better air flow Temps & RH have been good today but RH was low, has since climbed back up to 41% after the screenshot !

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 04/23/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays watering! Boosted the Skywalker Ghost & Strawberry Dawg Pie with some boxes, all 4 plants are now receiving roughly 540 uMOL of light Temps & RH have been good so far today! ***UPDATE 04/24/25*** The Skywalker Ghost & Strawberry Dawg Pie seem to be doing well after boosting them closer to the light! Temps & RH have been good so far today, feed day tomorrow! ***UPDATE 04/25/25*** Gave each plant 625ml of aerated RO mixed with nutrients listed above at a PH of 6.2, was 2.50ml/L Clyde for the Strawberry Dawg Pie in a seperate feed, 1st time I have ever had to use PH UP! Probably should have halved potassium related products this feed but chatGPT insists the plants are healthy & I should continue on with set incriments xD A user on reddit pointed me towards chatGPT, AI itself is extremely thorough & I'm able to upload pictures + ask it a ton of questions, very detailed knowledgable responses is actually insane what it's able to spit out! The program is actually much smarter than i thought it would be but do think it is wrong on this specific question! Plants are slowly starting to decline which isn't good! Gonna try them at 1L each next watering & see how they do, will probably half Bud Booster & Sticky Bandit next feed as well depending on the damage, could just be fading while gearing up to change color towards the top, noticed some purple starting to come in on some of the top leaves when looking at the Slimer! Light defoliation towards the bottom of the Skywalker Ghost so it is a bit easier to water Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today although temps may continue to rise as it continues to warm up outside! ***UPDATE 04/26/25*** 3/4 Plants responded well to yesterdays feed! Early morning update & do think the top leaves on the Slimer have just lost pigment prior to turning purple! The Strawberry Dawg Pie is clawed pretty heavily, it did not like 2.50ml/L Clyde & should probably tone it down on the potassium as well! The Gravely Ghost has already started to pack on some crystal! Dank smell early on! Removed boxes I used to boost the Skywalker Ghost & Strawberry Dawg Pie, canopy is fairly even at this point! Adjusted the light to where the tallest plant is now receiving roughly 575 uMOL of light, the other plants are all inbetween 520 uMOL & 575 uMOL, thinking I may try 18/6 the next time around Temps & RH should be good today! ***UPDATE 04/27/25*** Woke up to some nute burn this morning! My best guess is salts still trapped in the medium at 500ml - 625ml per plant each watering vs not using enough calmag, will be giving each plant 1L of aerated RO just before lights off tonight to see if I can even that out a little bit, they are drinking much faster at this current stage, pots are close to dry! Will try & stick to larger amounts of water on plain watering day & use less water during feed since I'm not watering to the point of runoff! The Gravely Ghost is showing the most damage of the 4, seen it coming when yellowing on the lower leaves looked like rippling water in a pool beforehand The leaves towards the bottom of the Slimer are starting to change color & I think I was right in that sense just have to dial the amount of water I am giving them to dilute & push whatevers going on in the medium downwards for now instead of flushing, hopefully it works, purpling towards the top could be something to do with phosphorus, not liking how color is mainly bleeding outwards from the veins! Temps & RH have been good so far today! ***UPDATE 04/28/25*** Gave each plant 1L of aerated RO mixed with 1ml/L calmag at a PH of 6.0 shortly before lights off yesterday. they seem to have responded well thus far! The Slimer & Strawberry Dawg Pie were drooped to the max prior to watering & seem to be the two that are drying out quickest where as the other two only had about half droop! Bottom Leaves on the Gravely Ghost & Strawberry Dawg Pie have burnt quite a bit, leaves strting to yellow from the edges inwards + some brown spots, am hoping this is the full extent of the damage & nothing major, middle & top leaves have all remained in tact! Slimer faded to yellow as it starts to turn purple & the Skywalker Ghost seems to be doing pretty good overall as well! Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today! ***UPDATE 04/29/25*** Plants seem to have responded well to yesterdays watering! The Slimer is in rough shape & what I initially thought was fade before the plant turns purple is looking more like nutrient burn & a possible lockout at this point! The other 3 plants seem to be doing good & think what I'm seeing currently is the full extent of the damage done just have to be careful with nutrients moving forward! Will be going plain water again the next watering & from there am gonna dial Clyde back to 2ml/L & Sticky Bandit + Bud Booster will be at 1ml/L Removed a couple fan leaves on the Skywalker Ghost that were blocking lower bud sites from recieving light Temps have been high today, not much I can do to bring them down but should be back to normal in a few hours + colder weather in the coming days, RH has been good!

connormcleod47 ***UPDATE 04/30/25*** Watering day tomorrow! Gonna go with plain water for now & will give the Slimer 2L to dilute/flush any excess salts out of the medium that may still be present, the other 3 will get 1L each! Removed a bunch of burnt leaves from the bottom of the Slimer Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today! ***UPDATE 05/01/25*** Gave the slimer roughly 2.5L of aerated RO mixed with 1ml/L calmag & 1ml/L Monkey Juice at a PH of 6.1, the other 3 plants got 1L each Do hope the Slimer is able to make it to harvest, noticed hairs have started turning orange & same thing with the Gravely Ghost, seems like they will finish fast! Grabbed a new PH meter today, did end up going with the Apera GroStar Series GS4, wasn't sure if my current pen was off, have a cheaper off brand I've been using since June of 2024, calibrated this new one properly & did a side by side comparison with the old one & readings are nearly identical, plan is to hold onto both in case of emergency! Temps & RH were pretty good today as well! ***UPDATE 05/02/25*** Plants responded well to yesterdays watering! Thinking they should live but may eend up losing a fair number of fan leaves towards the bottom & middle! Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today! ***UPDATE 05/03/25*** Nothing really needs to be done today, watering day tomorrow if the pots are dry & I will probably feed at half strength Temps & RH have been good today! ***UPDATE 05/04/25*** Checked the plants this afternoon & no need to water just yet, will give them a light feed later on tonight or early tomorrow morning, will also go through & remove a majority of the dead/dying leaves! Temps & RH have been pretty good so far today!

Nice colours starting to come in on that slimer

@Grow_for_Happiness, Was upset I burnt that one was one of two I was most excited for! Thinking early purp would be more Chitral than Ghost OG, Chad from Crossbone did grow & select a purple phenotype of Ghost OG from Sensi Seeds in order to make these crosses, the Pakistani Chitral was from clone, may still see some purple amongst the other two over the next couple of weeks :P Carbs of all things! In my experience really do help bring those colors out & rarely see them advertised as such!

highlander, i thought i was looking looking at a Christmas wreath... nicely done... you could probably market a skill like that... youtube classes or something

@sanibelisl, Beauty structure I know but do think yield isn't gonna be all too great this time around! Hoping I'm able to double or triple the size of them the next time around, plan is to bump light intensity throughout veg in it's entirety & keep straws around stocks so I can have fans on them as soon as they pop out of the dirt! Am also gonna try out a new product called "great white shark mycorrhizae" & see if I can get those roots moving a little bit quicker! Still not 100% sure if this technique is viable in regards to autoflowers, a lot of people advise against topping them, if I'm able to dial everything in 2 or 3 times in a row could probably throw together a quick tutorial on how to train & keep them moving, have had great results mainlining photoperiods but everything needs to be done very quickly when working with autoflowers!

Good luck with your grow! I've grown a few rounds of Slimer by same breeder, one of my top 3 favorite strains. She's a treat to smoke, and grow.

Appreciate you stopping by! Checked the diary & looks like the plants turned out great! some nice purples & a ton of crystal, beautiful end product! Have heard good things about Crossbone Genetics! A buddy in NYC recommended them to me, am stoked for this run! Also grabbed a 5 pack of Devils Rejects from them & I'm gonna run one of those alongside some Beleaf & another Ethos once the current Ethos has finished, looks like some KILLER bud! Btw I also noticed you had a Purpl PRO! Would you recommend this at a price tag of 2k USD? Was thinking I might try my hand at breeding once I'm able to figure out a couple of the end pieces & that looks like it could come in handy somewhere down the line vs shipping product to a lab for testing!

Highlander, we may share the same tartan. My local grow store turned me on to the wonderful world of autoflowers and the breeder Daz, and Night Owl Seeds. At Night Owl they take great pride in bringing to market the best autoflowers in the world. Some of their stuff takes years before all the crosses and reversals and picking the best two out of tenty to continue with, really only the best. That is why I don’t train my autos,Daz has only moved forward with genetics that will produce specific characteristics like a naturally occurring even canopy. amcleodfromsanibelislfl nowlivingincolorado

@sanibelisl, This is good to know! Have been eyeing their Pre 98 Episode 1 F4, a cross between Pre 98 Bubba Kush (Clone Only) & Skywalker! The Chem ’n’ Kush is on the list as well! A lot of people mention Night Owl when it comes to top tier genetics, will throw a couple packs in the cart on my next order! Born & raised in Canada but have family out in Florida, same spelling on the last name which you don't see very often! Majority of the time there's always an A in their eh xD! Cheers Man!

@sanibelisl, Appreciate you stopping by! HighDoh91 is looking great on your end as well, plants are HUGE! Thinking I may avoid mainlining the next go & just grow them straight up to see how they do!

RO on a Canadian tire bucket, the only way to go haha. Looking good, of you adjust PH you will see it takes much less input to move PH up or down with RO water

connormcleod47commented1mo ago
@Grow_for_Happiness, Wish I seen that sooner wasn't expecting this... Wasted 2L on the 1st try, PH was sitting at 3.20 xD Second try I only used 3 drops & it ended up bringing 2L down to 5.95 from from 7.80! Will have to be very careful with PH on anything less than 1L !
