MindFlowers68 The seed(s) were soaked overnight with regular filtered water that was aerated. Seeds were then placed in 1 gal plastic pots. I usually start my seeds in 5 gal fabric pots but I was limited on space. Also doing more strains at one time than usual so I can have some variety of clones available for friends and family. Instead I decided to germinate my seeds in 1 gal this time and see how things went but had a harder time with a few of them. It was not until the seedlings got fee compost tea they started to take off. I was unable to get vermiculite or perlite at the store at the time of starting the seeds so I mixed some violet mix i had sitting around had some mixed in it. The mix was mostly peat and lava rock left over and worm castings with some gia green 4-4-4 and glacial rock dust. Mosquito bits were also added. Once the seeds sprouted I added some microbes and fungi powder. In the future If I have the space will stick to doing my seed starting in 3-5 gal fabric pots.

MindFlowers68 Seedlings all growing at expected rate. Added soluble root zone to the seedlings again, and they got their first feeding. Some liquid kelp and cal-mag. They were only watered once for the whole week. The PPFD at the canopy level was set to around 250 with my my lights at 100 percent at the top of the tent.

MindFlowers68 Some of the plants showing more signs of yellowing from watering issues and ph issues. Luckily I was able to get a nice strong batch of Boogie Brew compost tea made and gave them all a nice soak and bath with it. Within two days all but one of the plants bounced back. Now that the plants are able to fend for themselves a little better was a good opportunity to try to harden them off the ones going outside to the elements outside. I did so by placing on a shaded part of my deck for a few hours. I was also able to get my tent inside ready and they were moved from the small cool grows tent to my 4x8 tent with my big lights. I adjusted the light to be around 500 PPFD at canopy.

MindFlowers68 I was able to transplant her into new 65 gallon home and get a view of how the roots are doing. I watered in with a rich brew of compost tea to inoculate its new home with microbe and fungal friends!

MindFlowers68 Super liking the structure of this plant. Very pine tree like and I purposfully planted the branches at a 45 degree angle to the side walls of my tent so that when it fills out it will be easier to reach the far corners rather than fighting the long branches running directly into the side right away. Got a little haircut on the bottom and topped main stem after I watered with around 2 gallons liquid kelp and cal-mag.

MindFlowers68 She's just doing her thing this week sprouting out those new shoots from after toping. I watered with just water early in the week and later in the week got cal-mag kelp solution. Going to give a top dress this week and brew a batch of compost teat and I want to try mulching with something i noticed the roots were hanging out under the other 1 gallon pits sitting on top. Not sure if they were enjoying the extra nutrients or just using it as mulch.

MindFlowers68 I was able to get the other plants out and set up the scrog net this week. Got topped off with BSF frass and neem seed meal and watered with 600 ppm compost tea early in the week. Later in the week was given water with a little cal-mag to ph it down. I set up the scrog net halfway through the week and loots like i caught it at the perfect time. I still need to clean up the bottoms but I was waiting until I was ready to take clones. I should be able to get them this week. Also readjust light intensity at the canopy level.

I top dressed with a mix of my dry amendments, and dry boogie brew boost and base. Along with frass Gia green 4-4-4, rock dust, fish bone meal. Watered in with some fish hydrolysate followed by my kelp and cal-mag solution. They also got some boogie brew later in the week.

MindFlowers68 Shes doing very well. Just keep tucking and praying basically. Shes starting to get a little tough and wanting to push up but I've been going in every day and just pushing everything down and out. I did have a minor stem break few weeks ago but i put grafting tape on it and its good to go now. It always happens where i top it and bend it in the middle, it was much easier to deal with this time around that I grew the plants i to the net more than stuffing the plant under it like I have in past grows. I only watered once with compost tea with added kelp and cal mag at 700ppm. I got the other two plants out of the tent and should only be a few more weeks before they are ready to go into flower.

MindFlowers68 Shes almost filled the net out completely just a few more squares to go. I was going to flip to flower after this week but decided to go one more and let the other tent catch up too. I was able to clean up everything under the net that is unneeded or in the way and took cuttings along the way. Then I top dressed with 1 cup GG 4-4-4, 1 cup fish bone meal, 1/3 cup each of neem seed meal, insect frass, and GG glacial rock dust. Then added the compost tea grounds on top then water in with boogie brew. The plants got one other watering just cal mag to ph it down earlier in the week. I'm only going to veg 1 more week before I flip them to 12/12 light. I moved the light up as high as i could with some clips i had laying around To try to see if that helps the slight tacoing of the other plant in the tent and to give a little extra headroom for flower. The light seems to cast better on the tent now as a result and the heat of the light is held farther away from the canopy.

MindFlowers68 Last week of veg is finally here. Not to much to report this week. I uped the watering to 3 times.The first time I added some epsom salt and potassium sulphate. Second time I did liquid fish and ending the week with boogie brew. I bumped the power up on the lights to help them finish filling the net and to get used to a little more light intensity.

MindFlowers68 First week of flower going smoothly shes stretching and filling her space out nice. I went ahead and added another net so I don't get stuck tying heavy buds late in flower. The soil level was starting to get real low so I added a top dress of soil that included some homemade biochar and worm castings.

MindFlowers68 I used the two extra high cfm bars from the kit to add to the gorilla tent. The temps are hotter than I would like but the plants actually seem to be liking it. The lights running a little brighter and running the dehumidifier in the lung room at night is helping keep the humidity an vdp in check but at expense of being a little warmer. It should start to cool down though and j will adjust the lights after stretch. Got watered twice this week once just cal mag to ph water down and second a nice batch of compost tea. The plants are stretching fast and hard and putting on buds quick too. I did another defoliation on the underside and removed a few fan leaves here and there to improve the airflow.

MindFlowers68 Shes looking beautiful. Covering in point white hairs stacking buds very fast and still stretching some. The depth of canopy is nice too. Almost everything between the nets is getting dense. There were some dry crispies underneath canopyI had to sit down for a minute an pluck them off but other than that just watering 2 times and leaving alone to do its thing. The tent is really starting to smell.
