Another round has started. Looking for something subtle in time for summer.
Planning on a straight 8-9 week grow this time with these autos. Always grown photodependant strains previously, therefore looking forward to some different characteristics.
Will keep it on for 18/6 for the whole grow.
Interested in this strain, less 9% THC 9% CBD.
Keeping them on the window sill for a week or so... Got the adult girls in the tent soaking up all those golden lights, ever so so greedy!
Dribbles of water at the moment, wary of over watering at this age.
Goodness, just over one week in a warm well light tent has allowed these girls to flourish!
Already starting to flower on the 5th week from seeds...
Fuck that naturally lit windowsill!
In all seriousness, it is only 13hrs of light during spring now so it will be a while until outside grows are worth it.
450ppm feed.
Graduated to 8 litre fabric grow bags now. Added some fungus granules to the bottom.
Ensuring there is a 50/50 mix perlite to soil. So fluffy!
FEED. Onto 550pm, rich PK fertilizer from Spain and a spoonful of Molasses syrup.
Turned on second full spectrum COB LED. Should be running 100-130 watts in total from now on (wattage depends on how generous I am feeling).
Growing very well so far, very sturdy short plants so far. I have done a few grows on here, however I must say these girls are fast and incredibly aggressive with their growth! Just check those roots..
For this grow I have started to use a PPM reader, plus the fluffy 50/50 soil mix since germination. I have a feeling this has helped hugely... hmmm if only I did this for the past grows, love and learn I guess.
A bit of a fuck up week.
Went away for a few days, came back to find the lights fell onto the plants, resulting in crushed & burnt tops.
I have now had to cut the main heads off both of them.
Low morale at the moment.
The last glimpse of the plants before the disater, they looked superb. Beautiful...
An observation I was going to make with new pictures (not now because they look fucked), is that considering they are the same strain, they both have completely different shape, structure, flowering areas and leaf shape.
Maybe seedstockers have a few more generations of this strain to develop before complete stabilization.
After last week's awful disaster, find the lights had fallen off the support poles on to the plants, the weight did some irreparable crushing and burning to both tops of each plant #1 & #2.
As mentioned last week, I cut the top two nodes from each plant in a exercise to clear the debris.
continuing on the issue of strain, there is a undeniably huge difference between type of plant. 1# is structure like a sativa with light flowering points located on thin lanky branches, small size calyxes and no trichomes as of yet. After the topping it has really grown in to shape, recovering from the disaster.
However #2. In ways I wish the light incident hadn't of happened with this plant. the calyxes on this are huge! never grown or seen such large gloves. already covered in trichomes and smells delicious. however all the flowering is happening very close to the centre stem. I am expecting feable yields on this one, regardless of the damage it hasn't recovers from. seems like this genetics have created a peculiar mutation.
Well I have been getting more relaxed about feeding these guys, seems the PPM meter gives the results.
1# is blooming well, shape is very similar to a Sativa, thin fan leaves and a nice cloud of flowering point. The buds are sizable, a funny squat shape, maybe they are already getting to max size. Starting to get frosty.
2# Still a shame she got cut down by the lights, she hasn't recovered as all in shape. However the she is insanely frosty, dark green broad leaves and huge calyxes. Honestly never seen that before. when I touch her, my fingers are honestly dripping with syrup. will probably get enough off her to enjoy the random genetics this strain has provided.
Going to harvest In 1.5 weeks. Starting to flush them out.
1# is yellowing heavily, even though she is getting 1050ppm of PK fertilizer.
2# very Indica like, outer leaves are starting to grow trichomes now. Obviously lime silver haze has some heavy hash genes. Not prolific on the product though.
The chop down evening, trim off those leaves and prepare for the perfectly adequate drying machine - the attic...
Alot of crusty sugar leaves from #2, definitely not the strain i expected.
Cure then smoke to follow... aq
