The Greatest Hits

Hudson2384 So far so good with most of the seedlings. The GDP is really getting up there. I suspect they will be transplanted by the weekend. Oddly enough MC2 seems to have almost caught up to the GDP. MC1 however is lagging behind it's sister. Not sure if I will keep MC1 I have 11 seedlings but only room for 10 3gal pots. I almost killed one of my GA. I severely bent it when I was fixing the prop wire. But with a little bit of back fill I managed to right it and oddly enough it recovered the next day. The one DC seems to be doing good as well. I will be keeping it as it's probably one of the last dinafem plants out there. Other than a small feeding the week went well.

Hudson2384 Okay I'll admit this is slightly delayed but seedling aren't that interesting to look at. So as of today all seedling are now in the small plant category so this is when I transplant to 3 gal. I had 11 seedlings in total but only 10 pots not to mention 10 is the max for a 5x5. I ended up culling OG Kush 3 due to it missing a node. I was concerned about potential mutations so I chucked it. So the plant count is now a total of 10 with. 3x GDP, 2x OG Kush, 2x Mandarin Cookies v2, 2x Grape Ape and 1x dinachem aka chemdawg. I'm so excited for this grow as I have not grown Grandaddy Purple but from what I smoked in the states I'm looking forward to it. The Grape Ape is also going to be interesting as I have not grown anything from canuk. My last attempt at cracking these beans there was some sort of fungus on them so they got chucked. However this run they came out very healthy. This transplant took about a week. Some of the cups were further along. I did use mycorrhizae for each transplant. 3L of a light feed and the plants will be good for the next 10 days or so. Then I will do my first run off with them. The ones that were transplanted earlier in the week have had some LST done. Some are responding better than others but it's only been a few days.

Hudson2384 This week has been great. The plants have taken well to the transplant. There not too thirsty at this point so I might hit them once a week. This week I didn't feed I just watered. Next week is a feed and I will be upping the nutrients to a full 1.0ml per L and maybe add in some Honey chome since I got a good deal on a large jug. Some of the LST is going really well. One of the Grape Ape's virtually split into to main coals in like 3 days. You can see in the pictures I took 2 sets 3 days apart. Absolutely amazing I've never seen a strain take so well to LST before. So Scrogers take note this might be the one out of the bunch for you to grow. The least strain to take to the LST has been the Mandarin Cookies. But that's okay some strains respond better to topping and at this point I'm not willing to do that. I am however happy to remove some fan leaves to allow some nodes to catch up to the main coal hence the HST even though I did not top. Anyways a few more weeks of veg and we should be able to flip to flower.

Hudson2384 So this week went really well. I had an accident with one of the GDP. I was trying to bend the main stem when I snapped part off the top node. Oh well so I finished the job of the accident and topped her. As it turns out it was a happy little mistake because she took right too it. The picture I have of it is a few days after top and those extra nodes grew out quiet well. I did some standard defoliation and LST. The plants are coming along and I suspect I will flip in 2 weeks time as once my canopy hits 18 inches. The grape ape has really impressed me so far. It's reaction to LST makes is a great SCROG strain. Very vigorous growth it will be nice to see how she flowers. I use to get this strain all the time back in the day at my compassion club. My mandarin cookies aren't responding well to their training. I upped the base nutes to a full 1ml per L. I suspect 1 more water then a full feed then immediately flip to flower. I can't have these plants too big as I have 10 of them and they will fill out the 5x5 tent very quickly. This is not like the last run where the Blueberry Muffin only stretched like 1 or 2 inches.

Hudson2384 This week has gone well. Earlier efforts to train via LST are starting to pay off. Out of all the strains I have I think Grape Ape is probably the most aggressive and responsive to training. The one plant I of it Branched out its lower node so aggressively it has nearly caught up to the top node. The Dinachem has always been a favorite of mine and I have been growing it for the past 5 years. Granted it's chemdog but the fact that I'm almost out of anything Dinafem is sad. It was a great seed company while it lasted. My Mandarin cookies seem to be doing good as well. GDP is doing just as great. OG Kush has been a pain in the ass to train but it's always been a finicky strain. But you can't beat that lemon lime terps that ooze out of it. As of this week the canopy has reached 16 inches which is 2 less than my planed height. I always have a habit of over vegging so I decided to flip once I hit 1.5 feet and do the old double size stretch that early flower is known for. I have a really good feeling about this run I'm almost at the half way point now.
