FijiS Started flower yesterday (saturday) looking strong- fed and watered
Defolited and trained branches
For each 5 gallon pot top dressed with
1 cup worm casting
1/2cup compost
1/4cup perlite
1tbsp kelp
3tbsp seabird guano
4.tbsp langbeinite
1/4 tsp great white mycorrhizae
The (on dry pot) I soak each one with 1 gallon of Compost tea
5 gallon compost tea:
5 gallons decholinated water
Instant recharge compost tea per instructions
Ph balanced to 6.5
D2 of Flower - Roughly 72hours since feeding. Very thirsty girls. Rainbow is very responsive and lanky and the others look good. The areas that were trained and slightly bent caused some big growth. Fearing they may be too big and I may have to change lights but we will see.
Feeding too
4 gallons dechlorinated water at ph 6.5
4tbsp blackstrap molasses
4 tsp CalMag
(1 gallon top per plant)
Will adjust to a larger feeding next time and start utilizing self watering pots for future.
Day 5
After a strong stretch and feeding I think I may have a slight salt build and watering is due as they are now dry. So I will water each plant with 2.125 gallons of ph 6.5 water with some silica- enough to wash off some of the salts saturate the pot. This drench should carry me 4 days into Day where I plan one more hit of molasses to Jumpstart the microbes again before the feeding after. Wish me luck!

FijiS Week 2 is here yay! We made it!
So some notes from last week and the plan going forward.
Rainbowbelts who has been the biggest diva this whole grow was taking up canopy after the last trim has filled in well and curled back in.
I defoliated her further and trained a few outliers back in. I kept her training wires on- will evaluate next feeding.
Sin Mints is really starting to show her Indica traits and is getting left behind in height by the others- she is looking lush and bushy and absolutely beautiful. She may be a candidate for a solo grow in the future. Extremely simple, happy, compact. All in all a wonderful plant so far. She got trimmed down as well.
Apple crumble who was all bent out of shape (was sloping 😃) straightened out a bit and is lush and strong. Tons of new growth and sprouting up and pistils coming in strong.
Blue dream is by far the healthiest and heartiest. Again she is one of my faves and its hard not to be biased but I love this strain. She has pistils shooting out all over.
After the trim all the plants were fed 1.25 gallons of recharge tea only but there pots were already half heavy so this feeding was more of a boost since the last was just water silica and cal mag. I plan to let them dry out and wait to feed them later Friday (5 day dryback) at which time I'll amend again and add the trellis.
Thanks world for listening!
Week2 Day 2
So far so good- girls are loving everything. Few updates on strains.
Blue dream is just lush. I mean you prune her back and she is back faster than others, she is hearty and mature and ready to pop. It feels like she could consume the whole tents nutrients if you let her. She adheres very well to training snd the top is so level and clean its almost artistic. I will take a picture day 3 to show it off but Humboldt Seeds Blue Dream I highly recommend (remember I am biased lol)
Sin mints- she is a stubby beautiful plant- grows typical nothing extra nothing short. She has a great color and size but she grows a bit slower and because that she loses real estate to her roommates who branch out. I think sin mints would be great in a SOG.
Apple Crumble- started off leaning like the tower but hasn't toppled- instead she straightened most of it out and has been stretching like crazy. She is equal to rainbow belts height- without the crazy spread and lanky stems. Overall im liking her alot.
Rainbow Belts by Blimburn seeds- so I wont lie. I did not like this strain... up until a couple days ago. She is a diva.. 1000% while others vegged with 8-9 tops and tons of leaves she had only as many tops as I forced her to make and make (no exaggeration) 1-2 leaves per branch.. like she looked lanky and weird but everything was healthy. Come flower she does what i expect and streeetttccchhh and so I trained her out to let the light in and she took up so much room.. but a week after training she is opening up down below but still level above and lots of strong tops. I think it will do well but this would be better with other rainbow belts. I am starting to like her alot more.
D2 done! Cya day 3!
Week2 Day 3
Just a maintenance day- everything looks good! Sin mints is a bit short so I gave her a booster seat and blue dream since last defoliation has literally gone insane and whilst I wasn't planning on trimming any fan leaves but in 3 days it has grown so much leaves were getting close and she dun need all that anyways. So I plucked off a few and... it didnt do much but at least shes not a touchy feely bitch anymore. Rainbow belts was also touchy feely and poor Apple crumble was getting molested under the guise of fan leaves so I took it all off and separated them and we will keep and eye on them. No bullies in this garden. Anyways imma finish this blunt. If you actually reading this you are awesome! Have a wonderful day because that made my day and hopefully I see you tomorrow!
Catch you tomorrow!
Week2 Day4
Just let them chill today- plucked more leaves- repositioned and check soil moisture- still about 40% so we should be on track for feeding at the start of week 3!
Week2 D6
One last day of chilling- they are ready to be watered which will be tomorrow- I decided it would he more fruitful to feed at day 21 of flower or start of week4. I came to this conclusion because the girls are still green with still some deep jade green leaves and my soil is rich with life. So this week coming up im going to water twice- once on Saturday with compost tea/molasses ph balanced (1.5gallon each) and then once on Friday just water and silica to flush built up salts and then the follow Tuesday I will top dress and feed for the final 4 weeks.
A few notes- all the girls are budding and stretching but sin mints is delayed- this is because she is shorter strain and I didnt put her on a booster seat til a couple days ago but she is thriving.
They are all ranging between 1k - 1250 PAR and there is no burn or curl but ill raise the lights when I water them just about 3inches.
Cya all in Week 3!

FijiS Hello week 3!!!!
We made it and they are ready for a light feeding. So each 5 gallon pot got 1/2cup worm casting + 1 tbsp of each: langbeinite, kelp meal, seabird guano.
Also tried not to defoliate much but blue dream really bursted in growth so I got rid of the
I also water them with 1.5 gallons of instant recharge tea balanced to 6.5ph.
I was going to put up a net but the light cords may get in the way. Im gonna reevaluate tomorrow and decide if I'll go old-school with bamboo stakes or move things around.
I wont have much notes until next watering which should be in 4-6 days but I'll keep posting pictures.
Later taters! Check my next veg grow! Its a solo blue dream!
Week3 D2
Wasn't gonna make notes, nothing new done. Just gotta say.. damn seabird guano stinks!!! After the last feeding my soil was super active and started feasting right away creating a strong earthy manure smell after a few hours it subsided but a trace amount lingers. Increased ventilation but the girls are all thriving praying to the light. Smells like fart that just lingers lol.
Later growmies!
Week3 D5
Everyone got 1.25 gallons of 6.0ph dechlorinated tap water. Just enough to hydrate til Saturday when I'll hit them with another batch of Compost tea.
Week3 D7
Pots are still heavy but rainbow belts has a bit of droop. I suspect the last feeding was a bit more acidic than they liked so I will let it dry out to let the roots breathe then flush with 1.5 gallons of 6.7ph water and test the run off. See you next week!

FijiS Week4 D1
So starting this week plants still look strong but rainbow belts is drooping like she is thirsty but her pot is heavy so I am monitoring to see if she is just being dramatic or if she is getting a slight salt build up. Will water in 2 days and check the ph of run off. I am thinking it is slightly acidic. I also see slight tip burn on a couple leaves but they were just fed and it wasn't hot so I am leaning towards the acidic water.
You can see the light tilted to accommodate the different heights.
Week4 D3
I said I would water today but I am going to let them go one more day before making a decision. Rainbow Belts roots may need to breathe a bit so before I make a rash decision I will monitor. Otherwise plants are stacking well and are getting hairy and frosty. Sugar leaves are getting more abundant.
