love_2_grow It’s time for another side-project to scatch that grower’s itch. This time, it’s going to be a no-budget run, as in not spending one cent on the whole grow. I’m going with a freebie seed from Mephisto Genetics: Forum Stomper x Grape Walker Kush ------------------------------------------------------------ Forum Stomper Indica/Sativa: 50/50 Cycle Time: 70 to 80 days from sprout Size: 60 to 90 cm Yield: 75 to 125 grams Aroma & Flavor: Powerful and nasty funk. Spice, fruits, chocolate, and mint. Effect: Balanced high Medicinal effect: Anti-stress, relaxing ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ Grape Walker Kush Indica/Sativa: 60/40 Cycle Time: 75 to 85 days from sprout Size: 60 to 90 cm Yield: 90 to 120 grams Aroma & Flavor: Dank OG with grape overtones. Effect: Medicinal, balanced, very potent high Medicinal effect: Eases sleep, aches, and pains. Appetite inducing ------------------------------------------------------------ It will grow in a 20-liter sub-irrigated tomato pot that has been gathering dust in a corner, and I will use spare tomato soil without adding any additional nutes. To complete the no-budget concept, the pot will be placed at a south-facing window without any additional lighting, although I’ll probably put the seedling in the corner of my tiny tent for a week or two. I might as well use the space since the tent is up and running anyway. I don’t expect much out of this grow except the experience of running an entire grow without spending any money. I started, as I usually do, by soaking the seed overnight in a shot glass of water to which kelp meal and fulvic acid had been added. The next day, the seed was planted in a Root Riot plug. 60-hours hours later, we had germination.

love_2_grow The second week has passed without anything to report. She is quietly sitting in her solo cup in the corner of the tent, getting bigger day by day. I'll transplant her soon into her final pot.

love_2_grow After a couple of cozy weeks in the tent, she was brutally evicted this week. She was slowly outgrowing the solo cup, and I wanted to transplant her before the small pot would trigger her into flowering. Autos sure can be finicky at times... As this is a no-budget grow, I'm not going to give her any additional nutrients, so she'll have to make do with some soil that I had over after planting my tomatoes. I also had an extra 12-liter sub-irrigated pot, which I filled with soil and dusted the roots with some mycorrhizae before transplanting her into her forever home. Finally, I added a layer of pine bark mulch. (Also spare from my tomatoes.) She is also not getting any additional light but instead will have to make do with whatever light comes through the south-facing window. Like I said, no-budget grow. A few days later, she has taken off and looks like she is loving life.

love_2_grow She has certainly done a lot of stretching this week due to the low amount of light she is receiving. Oh well, that's the nature of a no-budget grow :D This is the last week of veg as she is transitioning into flower.

love_2_grow This week, the no-budget grow changed to a low-budget grow due to pests. I detected thrips damage on a few lower leaves, so I spent 6€ on two bags of predatory mites – one bag with Amblyseius cucumeris and one bag with Amblyseius californicus. Other than that, all is well.

love_2_grow This is starting to turn into a never-ending grow. We're already at week 13 and a bunch of the trichomes are still clear. In an auto grow. Wtf! lol I suspect it may be because of the bad weather we have had, with no sun for weeks on end. In any case, I'll leave her for another week and then chop before I'm off on vacation.

love_2_grow I had planned to chop her today, but I will leave her for another couple of days before we're off on a two-week vacation. Trichome maturity is still not really where I'd like to see it, but enough is enough.

love_2_grow Boom! After 100 days, it was time for the chop. She probably could have gone a while longer, but I'm off on a two-week vacation tomorrow, so she had to come down. The buds are loose and fluffy due to little light, but this was an experiment to see what would happen if I just left her alone on a windowsill. I'm curious what the final yield will be. I removed her fan leaves and hung her in my drying tent to wait until I'm back home.

Happy Harvest Day!

It's hard to give this cultivar a proper score as she wasn't grown in a proper way, with too little nutrients and too little light. But that was the experiment, to do a no-budget, no-effort grow, and see what the result is. The result is loose, but sticky buds. Filled with sour terps, with a hint of gas.

love_2_grow I went on vacation and left her to dry for a couple of weeks. The trim was a piece of cake as she was fairly small. In the end I ended up with 29,9 grams of trimmed buds (I didn't bother to save the trim so it went into the trash). While not a big harvest, it was still OK considering this entire grow was an experiment - a no-budget, no-effort grow, standing inside on a windowsill. So yeah, I considering this grow a success. I have 30 grams of bud to smoke that I wouldn't have had otherwise, and all I had to do for it was to fill up water in the reservoir regularly. It was a fun little side project and I will run this grow setup again next summer.

Looking fluffy, but congratulations nonetheless! I wonder if the effects are similar to "proper" grows under artificial lights. And have a great vacation!

@kohlrabi, She was fluffy alright, but that's to be expected considering how little lights she got.
